[www.keralites.net] Tantra: The path of openness!

 


Tantra: The path of openness!

Openness means lack of rejections, repressions. To acknowledge the existence of "what is;" because if it is,  it has a reason to exist.


Tantra is not for everyone. It typically arrives towards the end of a journey of many lives.
Every suppression, every rejection, every emotional trauma had caused and nourished an entity inside us, which we call ego, the "I."


That entity is not "bad." It is the result of living many Lives without awareness. Through Tantra, that emotional energy which is defining our personality, collapses little by little and something new emerges, something which is able to integrate everything that is.


Sexual energy is part of that. Most individuals are only aware of sex as energy for reproduction or for recreational purposes due to the pleasurable sensations. The offset of that, is loss of energy as in Nature there is a subtle balance of dualities. That is known as harmony.


That is why, there is Tantra; to maintain that balance and enjoyment as much as possible.
Thus, this type of sexual energy has a different purpose: To increase vitality in the participants, to re-energize, to bond, to freed.


Because this is a discovery, it cannot be taught; but Life will bring the answers when we are ready for we are one with Life.


Sexual energy is repressed in our society for lack of understanding. One of the greatest gifts that Life has given us, is mostly feared as if it was a nuisance rather than a gift. Emotional traumas are part of most individuals at this time. That is how Tantra acquired a different reputation: Individuals who were not ready for the catharsis that implies self-realization, used Tantra as a "spiritual way," a method to rationalize the indulgence in sex.


Please consider this: Any method to attain something, only shows that "naturally" we are not ready for it.
Tantra is not just about sex. It is about Life, and sex is part of Life. Nevertheless, most individuals are only concerned with the "techniques," the "methods" to excel in sex according to their minds, without realizing that even if the individual is sexually satisfied, he cannot be fulfilled in Life.


The icing of the cake became the greatest thing to eat, but the belly is still hungry.


When emotional traumas, detrimental beliefs, hang ups are dissolved from ourselves, what is "natural" will arrive again. That innocence that many are looking to attain by DOING things, will be there. That peace, calmness, "going with the flow," will arrive by itself. It is through this new being how sexual energy can flow naturally, as it is meant to be.


Wherever you are in Life is "good." It is an unique experience of the range of experiences in Life. That experience will change and move on. It is never static.


Observe that the waters of the Ocean of Life are moving continuously, it is in that awareness how the realization of the uniqueness of the moment arises. That is all there is.


Anything the mind "thinks about" is just a cloud moving in the sky, taking your attention out of the Ocean. That cloud changes its form in your mind: It could be a position, power, riches, etc. all of those things valued in our conditioned mind… yet the Ocean is missed, living in the "now" is missed.


You can touch the Ocean, swim in it… but with a cloud, you can only do that with your mind.


Most humans at this time are caught with the cloud and even calling it: "My cloud."


Tantra is awareness, for in awareness we are living life; appreciating this unique moment, tasting it.
The mind is concerned with a purpose, a reason, a goal for existing… That is the cloud. Ideals bring methods, laws, commandments, techniques to "achieve" the cloud.


That is the human condition: To live in the cloud of the mind, without a chance to taste the feelings of the Ocean of Life.


What is the "spiritual"change needed? To look at the Ocean and feel it with all your being. :-)
