The tantric literature is an extensive one they
may be broadly divided into three schools namely:
Brahmana tantra
Buddha tantra
Jaina tantra
Again,the Brahman tantras have three ramification -the Vaishnava-agam,the
saiva agam and the saakta agama.Everyone of these has a rich literature
of its own but it is commonly believed that saaktism is more important
than other two. Amomg the Saiva tantras,the veera saivas and the kashmiree
saivas constitute two of the most important branches .The veera saivas
are known as the lingaayatas.
Tantra is the science to get rid of troubles, diseases, worries etc. One
can attain moksha through this practice. It is most auspicious and useful
for constrictive purpose. It should not be used for negative purpose and
methods
Tantra is commonly believed to be centered around secret sexual rituals.
Tantric sex is a secret meditation, the object of which is to merge the
two personalities and natures so completely that only one being is left
breathing, seeing, thinking, laughing as a form of meditation, the preparation
for a sexual rite is no less rigorous than for any other kind of meditation.
It involves a thorough theoretical and practical knowledge of hath yoga
breath control, mantra (spell), yantra (sacred diagrams), puja(rituals)
and kundalini yoga.
TANTRIC SEX :
Tantric sex has unbelievable sexual
pleasure and psychic power.Through these one can get pleasure ,power ,energy
and control.
The sexual neurosis of modern society exists because people do not know
how to elevate their natural sexual activity from the animal to the divine
level consciousness, which is the goal and purpose of the techniques of
sexual tantra.
Awareness is the main key in Tantric sexual techniques.Through Yogasana,
Pranayamas, Mudras and other special techniques, under the guidance of
a Tantric guru one can achieve that higher awareness. There are number
of specific tantric practices related directly to control and re-channeling
of sexual energy. These are received directly from the guru, according
to the personal requirements of individual aspirants and are perfected
only over a long period of practice. They include Vajroli, Sahajoli and
Amroli. Their perfection leads to voluntary control over the ejaculatory
and orgasmic reflexes and nerve pathways and this is a prerequisite for
successful sexual meditation. All these must be known through practice
before one can transform the sexual act into a medium of higher conscious
awareness and self-transcendence.
The final ritual is the joining together of male and female in union.
The partners sit facing each other. Concentration should be an Mooldhara
chakra and should chant mantra "Om" in a same ratio of inhalation
and exhalation when they feel the energy begin to spread upward, they
draw the energy up the spinal passage with the breath and send it to each
other. After sometime when the male experience a great flow of energy
he draws the female onto his lap, where she wrap her legs around him and
her army around his neck. She draws the Lingam(penis) into her Yoni(Vagina),
and in unison they remain perfectly motionless. They bring their eyes
and minds together through Ajna chakra. Maintaining breath awareness,
they join their foreheads, their eyes merging into one, together with
their spirit. However, the goal is to remain immobile throughout, locked
in static embrace, two spirits locked together physically, mentally, emotionally,
psychically and spiritually without any break or distraction of awareness.
Here, in this motionless posture the male's pranic network being polarized
to become Pingala and the female's becoming Ida. When Ida and Pingala
energies are perfectly balanced and equilibrated, Sushumna awakens in
the field generated between and beyond the participants as Kundakini awaken.
This is the conscious orgasm in which the re-generative energy flows to
each chakra in turns and open it. Cosmic experience results many visions,
experiences and states subsequently manifest.
Tantric sexual meditation, as enjoined
by the Tantras, can lead its participants
to full self-integration and understanding. Although initially there is
physical union of man and woman as Shiva and Shakti, this leads to the
awakening within the man of the inner shakti, the hidden complementary
half of his nature, and the woman with the shiva within herself. Thus
the individuals are set in a path of progressive inner self-discovery,
reliance and realization which culminate in the experience of total endless
awareness.
