Tantric sex a is part of the spiritual practice of Tantra, an ancient yogic tradition, many thousands of years old, from India.The tantric yogis discovered that sexual energy was a potent force with which to accelerate their spiritual growth. They began to cultivate sexual knowledge, and incorporated it into their spiritual practice. Over the centuries more and more knowledge of the effects of the interface between mind, body and spirit during sex accrued. Those who undertook to learn the sexual teachings discovered that their sexual pleasure intensified by great magnitudes, and expanded beyond anything they had imagined. It became clear that tantric, or sacred, sex provided a quality of sexual experience far beyond what was possible in conventional sex.
Although for many people deep, ecstatic pleasure is enough in itself, for tantrics there is a deeper motive for pursuing erotic pleasure than pleasure alone. Sexual energy is a resource used to attain higher conciousness, as a sort of 'fuel' for a faster ascent to union with Divine Consciousness. The way it works is that the energy generated during sex is 'refined' (by means of specific spiritual techniques) into a higher energy frequency, or vibration. When the human system (physical body and the energy field) vibrate at a higher frequency, healing takes place in the body, energy field and emotions--and spiritual transformation begins.
Naturally not everyone will be interested in the study of tantra for the purpose of spiritual growth and enlightenment. The exploration of how to intensify sexual pleasure is an honorable and excellent goal too, for pleasure is a central component of physical, mental and emotional health. In our opinion few people actually spend as much time in orgasm, or in the intense pleasure states just before orgasm, as is necessary for optimum well-being. Those who are not drawn to the spiritual benefits of tantra will be happy to know that doing tantric sex techniques provides you with the same outcomes whether you are "spiritual" or not: deeply intensified pleasure, profound intimacy, and experiences of ecstacy.
How To Get To Tantric Sexual Experiences
There is a step-by-step path of study in tantra, a process of learning skills, techniques and attitudes which result in the tantric sexual experience. Each level of skill you complete brings new pleasure and wisdom into your life, and prepares you for the next level of skills. And so it continues: pleasure, satisfaction, and personal growth accumulate over time. Some people are satisfied with their results from one or two areas of tantric study, others want the whole enchilada.
