Tantra Shuns Nothing, Judges Nothing

Tantra Shuns Nothing, Judges Nothing

By:


Although it is an integral part of the Vedic scriptures, ancient tantra is not a religion. This is precisely because tantra asks us to dive consciously and unreservedly into the very temptations that religions ask us to shun.

As any good tantra teacher will tell you, tantra does not ask us to shun anything the heart wants. Rather, it states that temptations should leave us over time. This happens once we realize that they have no greater use than momentary satiation. Once the body, the mind and the heart have had enough, they will stop responding to temptation.

What Tantra does require is a state of happiness a state we achieve by overcoming the restrictions we have imposed on ourselves by accepting them in our lives, and by walking down those very paths to overthrow them. Tantra picks you up like a baby and makes a man or a woman out of you.

Why would you want your desires to leave you? Because they are of no real value in your life, and hinder your progress to higher levels of consciousness.

Tantra shuns and judges nothing, and nothing is taboo or black or white. There is only good, and more good. Some things have greater goodness than others, but there is nothing that Tantra considers bad. It asks nothing from its followers except that they desire true happiness and accept and receive its precepts without pre-judgment.

When your consciousness unfolds at the hands of a tantra master, you are like a newborn who opens his eyes for the first time and takes in all the shapes, colours and objects around him. He does not judge; he merely observes, and is happy and excited by it all.

This is why many children have spontaneous spiritual experiences which gradually reduce in frequency and intensity as they grow older and conform to the mechanics of contemporary society. There is no conflict between the conscious and the subconscious in a childs mind. He does what he wants to and does it with a supreme lack of guilt, inhibition or hesitation. This is the very essence of sacred tantra.

Look into the eyes of a child and see the innocence, the wonder and the happiness in them. He is happy in every moment. His mind and being are ensconced within that moment itself. His soul does not judge, just accepts. He does not believe in bartering like adults do rather, he gives and receives just for the pleasure of giving and receiving. He gives when he wants to and he is equally happy to receive.

This kind of free happiness, when experienced in the act of making love, is called tantra sex. Most of us go through the motions of life without actually living it, much as we scratch a boil simply because it is itching. A tantra master can teach you to live life to the hilt, immersed in its moments, whether good or not-so-good, loving everything and everybody around you and judging nothing.

The precepts of ancient tantra state that it is only when we do not project any negativity that negativity leaves us. Under a qualified tantra teacher, you can learn how to be master of your life - to shape it into what you want it to be. We have forgotten the child within us and become a part of a knee-jerk society. We filter out things that we perceive as irrelevant to our scheme of things, thereby ignoring the bigger picture.

When you learn tantra, you will begin to see everything with the boundless pleasure of a new-born baby. Tantra believes that the core energy that rules the world the source of every creation is feminine energy. You can learn to harness that energy and use it to make vast changes in your own as well as others lives.

Tantra is not a quick-fix solution for nirvana you need to prepare for a journey that will last your entire lifetime -and several more to come.
