Tantra is an intimate art form, and a spiritual practice
Tantra teaches merging sexuality and spirituality for greater health,
increased closeness and pleasure in relationships, and deeper connection
with the Divine.
Tantra's attitude towards sexuality is very different from the Judeo-Christian.
Our sexuality, our life force energy, is the key for bringing life into
the world, both through children and through joyful productive activity
in our homes and community. Sexuality is therefore considered sacred
in Tantra, and Tantra is often called
"sacred sexuality".
"Women or God," Mykonos said, "thats the
traditional choice for so-called spiritual men, you see. But it is a
completely unnecessary choice. Women are God, sex is God, everything
is God, and God is beyond everything, too."

"Tantra is a teaching that harnesses pleasure, vision,
and ecstasy
celebrating them rather than repressing them.
Tantra stands for the view that sexual energy is a divine,
all-encompassing life force that sleeps within the individual, permeates
the universe, and affects everything we do from birth to death. As
sexual beings, we have the ability to raise that energy within ourselves
and use it to directly experience altered or mystical states of
consciousness. In effect, we become 'gods' and 'goddesses',
our bodies transformed into temples of male and female divinity." Jwala

"Tantra's goals are more exalted and broader in scope
than simply accomplishing proficiency in love. The ultimate
goal is Unity. Tantrikas aspire to a spiritual connection
or union, to experience the individual self as part of the Indivisible
All. To help them attain Unity, they employ techniques of
visualization and meditation and they practice ritual sexual union
and a highly developed form of communication with a partner."

"Ah, how skillful grows the hand
That obeyeth Love's command!
It is the heart and not the brain
That to the highest doth attain,
And he who followeth Love's behest
Far excelleth all the rest."
Henry Wadsworth
Longfellow
