Book Description
The practice of Tantra Yoga is considered to be the highest and most rapid path to enlightenment. Master teacher Mukunda Stiles offers 18 lessons in Tantra Yoga, a practice of transformational self-healing in which we can deepen awareness of our bodies, their energy forces, and the connections to the natural world around you and those you love. While many movements today describe tantra as a sexual practice promising longer and better orgasms, increased stamina, and ecstasy, the real Tantra aims to awaken Kundalini, the dormant potential force in the human personality. The Tantra tradition includes a vast range of practical teachings leading to the expansion of human consciousness and the liberation of primal energy. By heightening their awareness to this connective energy, readers will learn to embrace and develop a higher level of intimacy, the heart of tantra. Stiles explains this intimate and life-changing practice with grace, structure, and clarity--an easy-to-follow Tantra Yoga workshop in book form. Tantra Yoga Secrets will empower readers to overcome emotions, gain new knowledge, and live a more fulfilling spiritual lifestyle.

ISBN: 1609259637
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
Unlocking the secrets of Tantra—one of the most alluring forms of Buddhism Often misunderstood, Tantrism focuses on a particular style of meditation and ritual. Having far more to do with the sacred than the sexual, Tantric Buddhism is believed to have originated around the 5th Century AD in the rich cultural basin of Bengal and spread throughout the Asian world. Today it is widely practiced in Tibet, Japan, and the West. The Secrets of Tantric Buddhism presents accessible translations of 46 classic texts found in the Carya-Giti, a collection of teachings by more than twenty famous Siddhas, or Tantric adepts, who lived during the illustrious Pala dynasty of the 10th and 11th centuries. Renowned translator and scholar Thomas Cleary unlocks the mysteries of these texts and provides commentary for each that explains the ancient teachings in a way that makes them seem fresh and contemporary. These teachings emanate from one of the most dynamic sources of Buddhism, at the height of its religious development. They are completely nonsectarian and will be greeted enthusiastically by those interested in spirituality, world religions, and classic Buddhism.

The Tao of Tantric Yoga

Publisher:
ISBN:

Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
The Tao of Tantric Yoga is the response to people wanting to know more about the tantric and yogic paths. It is for the tens of thousands of people working on themselves, who sense that there is something MORE to life. Appealing to women and men wishing for how-to's, experimental ways and alternative thinking about sexuality, retaining energy for creative endeavours, the secrets of feminine ways, and alternative ways to make love.This book is about real love. The longing behind it all. Perhaps you have grown so comfortable with your relationship that you are now wondering how to be as free and erotic as you used to be, or how to approach the topic of open relationships. Perhaps you have been single for a long time, so romantic love may not truly exist for you, but tantra can, and so can self-love by following a yogic lifestyle. This unique personal and helpful way of explaining things offers ways in which we can know ourselves so well that, with practice, our lives will change. Evolution is happening Now. We can become people with wisdom and compassion, communicating well, asking for what we want and getting it, and understanding that life is what we are creating for ourselves moment to moment.The number of people who practice yoga and meditation has grown immensely. While yoga itself is 6,000 years old, it was re-popularized several times and now millions of people are partaking in practices of all sorts, from kundalini to yin. Tantric Yoga awakens us to a deeper understanding of our bodies, and how the body is connected to the expression and experience of the emotions, and the magnitude that comes with chakra purification. The Tao of Tantric Yoga's author Satyama Ratna Lasby is inspired and reveals some of her erotic time spent in the ashram of Osho Rajneesh, the enlightened spiritual leader known for his radical approach to life and sex. He eloquently paved the way for unconventional and intelligent relating using neo-tantric meditations for wisdom and in-the-moment living. Osho spoke about tantra and its spiritual relationship to sex, likely a few years too soon. Growing pains in tantric practices are highlighted in communities like Koh Phangan where tourists abound (looking for sex though maybe not ready to admit it), tantra teachers are born too quickly, and many "scandals" happen due to karma, desires unfulfilled, lack of communication, or differences in conditioning. There is more authentic curiosity than ever before from those wanting peak experiences in life and in their sexuality. The Tao of Tantric Yoga explains how body and mind are necessary for the awareness of healing, which includes sexual healing, where most carry wounds and fears which are covered by human behaviour and speech. Once healing has taken place, pleasure can occur, and once pleasure is experienced, there is no end to the heightened states possible through ritualizing sacred practices either with yourself or another, or simply by practicing and experimenting with consciousness and meditation. There are many ways to do this; some are described, step by step so that you can try them in their life. Tantric rituals are also given in detail, as are tantric sexual positions and the alignment of the chakras via yoga and sexual practice.The book is also an exploration what makes certain types of communities sustainable through their choice in spiritual practices, also in their choice of how to deal with conflicts that arise in relationships where love and sexuality are involved. The community of Tamera in Portugal is highlighted for its communication and conscious care of others via truthful and fully transparent paths. Behind all practices may be the doorway to how we live now, in a radically shifting paradigm that includes a look at how COVID is affecting us and how we can care globally through yoga.
