Tantra Is The Practice Of Meditation

Dear friends!

On the project, we're beginning to publish very interesting and informative articles from a tutor of Tantry yoga from India, Sadashiva.

The English-language translation was kindly provided by Elizabeth Nikonova, a student of Sadashiva.

In today ' s information space, the concept of tantra is very distorted. Let's figure out what a tantre really is.

I always refuse to use the word Tantra, especially outside India, as this notion is misunderstood. Tantra is not sacred sex and not a practice leading to continuous orgasm.

What a tantra is in fact

The word Tantra consists of two words “Tanoti”, which means expansion, and “Treati”, which means release.

Tantra is therefore studying the release of consciousness by expanding the energy field. There are many systems in Tantre that include methods that increase energy flows.

Tantra ' s sexual practices are only a small part of these methods. Most of the methods are used by " mantras " and " janitars " (wheel sounds and shapes), " laundry " (dry respiratory practices) and various types of techniques Mediation At the tone level.

Nowadays, what is known as Tantrey is at best an opportunistic therapy for the brainstorming and the liberation of sexuality, suppressed by the influence of the Christian religion. Most religious organizations disseminated negative judgements about sexuality. In these organizations, they understood that sexual energy was not easy to control, and if people were to look at it as a sin, it would be easier to keep it under control. Religious organizations often have control over freedom, guilt and greed, which they prefer to use.
