How To Find A Genuine Tantra Teacher

If you are looking for individual tantra sessions or tantra for couples instruction, you will already have done some research on available practitioners. There is certainly no dearth of so-called tantra teachers who promise to take your sex life to the orgasmic stratosphere. How do you find the right one for you in the pack? This is not as simple as it may sound. However, here are some tips on choosing a tantra teacher who is genuine and authentic.

• Beware of tantra masters who only make promises of increasing your sexual abilities and satisfaction. These so-called tantra experts know how to entice customers who only relate tantra to sex.

Though sex is an important aspect and focus of the ancient tantra scriptures, the path to tantra sex is through specific spiritual practices. Tantra is not a form of spiritual Viagra – it is a spiritual way of life. Unless a tantra master is capable of bringing his students onto this path, he cannot offer anything of value. For an amusing caricature of such fraudulent ‘tantra experts’, the film ‘The Guru’ is highly recommended.

• Ask the tantra teacher about where he obtained his knowledge from. Authentic tantra knowledge comes only from an unbroken line of tantra practitioners.

The secrets of sacred sexuality have not been handed out wholesale across the globe. Tantra is an ancient Indian science and its roots lie in Indian scriptures. As the unfortunate trend of ‘pop tantra’ spread across the world, various Western institutes began to offer tantric courses. These courses usually have nothing to do with the original Indian scriptures. Check on the tantric master’s certification, and also on how long he has been practicing.

• Establish whether the approach comes across as genuine. Do not discount your gut feelings about a tantric master, even if you have no prior knowledge on the subject.

You must be comfortable with the tantra teacher’s offerings, and they must meet your own objectives. If you are a genuine seeker of tantra knowledge, you will want to be introduced to its deeper spiritual secrets. You will know that there are no short-cuts to this knowledge, and will wish to be instructed in a scientific and logical manner. If you feel that the teacher is only trying to give you what the more superficial thrill-seekers want, he is not for you. Also establish whether he offers individual sessions or also tantra for couples sessions.

• Get a referral from a close friend. There is no better yardstick than a satisfied client.

You may have a friend or acquaintance who has already received tantra instructions from a tantric expert. If this person is satisfied with the instructions, there is no reason why you would not be satisfied as well. Find out what other tantric masters he or she approached before making a decision. This will help you eliminate quite a lot of the available options.

Tantra For Couples Of The Same Sex

Basically, tantra is an Indian form of spiritual pursuit and enlightenment that dates back thousands of years. It has its fundamentals in meditation, but it is also a hands-on, very physical path of spiritual practice. Among many other things, tantra does away with a lot of misconceptions about physical and emotional love. It rejects traditionally forms of forbidden love. In other words, tantra for couples of the same sex is a very valid concept.

Tantra is not about genders or our biases about them. It is about the fine art of giving and receiving passionate love, regardless of gender. It is about physical, emotional and spiritual connection between two people. Because of this lack of bias or gender focus, tantra for gays has become immensely popular.

We must remember that tantra encompasses a vast multitude of dimensions, which is precisely what makes it so appealing to diverse kinds of people. Individual and couples alike can turn to a tantra teacher for instructions in this ancient art of love and life. By the same coin, today couples of different or both genders seek tantra lessons to augment their ability to give each other sexual pleasure.

Let’s face it, contemporary sexual problems such as lack of desire, insufficient or short-lived erections and inability to climax are universal issues these days. They do not affect only couples of the opposite sex, but those of the same gender as well. Under the guidance of an experienced tantra master, these problems turn into opportunities for a closer, more intimate relationship.

Yes, that’s right. It has nothing to do with gender. The ability to love, feel passion and be sexually active is not limited by gender, and neither is ancient tantra. A tantra teacher can instruct any couple to enhance their physical, emotional and spiritual connection with each other. This attitude stems from the fact that tantra does not recognize the concepts of right and wrong as far as gender choice in a relationship is concerned.

However, it DOES have firm views on the quality and depth of a relationship. It is very important that the tantra techniques that the ancient tantra scriptures prescribe be strictly followed under the tutelage of a qualified tantra master. A student of this sacred art and science of love must embark on a journey of learning and discovery with an open heart and an open mind. As long as these guidelines are adhered to, every couple – regardless of genders – can discover the richness of life that the study and pursuit of tantra brings with it as a gift.

The Importance Of An Authentic Tantra Teacher

Tantra is the most ancient and time-proven path towards attaining primal sex power in the bedroom. It has been practiced for thousands of years, and not without a sound basis. Under the tutelage of a professional tantra teacher, ancient tantra is simply the most effective and empowering means of regaining our God-given sexual prowess.

If you are considering turning to this ancient art to enhance your sex life, be aware that there are great dangers in choosing the wrong tantra master. The ancient tantra techniques that can work sexual magic in your personal life cannot be modified for contemporary times.

It is true that certain tantra rituals that the ancients practiced can be dispensed with because of the pressures of modern times. However, the basic teaching and techniques are sacrosanct. They are handed down the generations, from one authentic tantra teacher to another – intact, sacred and unassailable.

Under no circumstances must the aspiring student of tantra allow himself to be beguiled by one of the many charlatans in the business today. These so-called ‘tantra gurus’ do not have any traditional background in this ancient art. They have gleaned second-hand knowledge from books or puerile weekend workshops and seek to pass it off as authentic tantra knowledge. Such people cause far more harm than good.

The reason is that an authentic tantra master does not practice and teach his own style. He does not deviate from the traditional norms laid down by the ancients. Understand that tantra and tantra sex are perfect in themselves. They are divinely inspired spiritual paths that do not need to be improved upon.

It is really surprising that people are more conscientious about choosing an authentic yoga master than about selecting a tantra master. This is probably because there is a lot more awareness about yoga, its benefits and the correct forms of practicing it than there are about tantra. The mysterious, veiled nature of this ancient art of love and life allow fraudsters to make their own interpretations and sell them off as authentic tantra.

Tantra secrets are guarded so carefully because of their equal power to build up and destroy. Tantra energy is spiritual energy at its most refined. Just as Shiva, the archetypal tantra God, has the power to both bless and destroy, so does tantra have the power to enhance or destroy.

The enhancement takes place under the strict and careful guidance of a genuine tantra teacher who has himself learned and practiced the science and art of this ancient path under authentic tantra masters. The destruction happens when a student of tantra is subjected to a subverted, threadbare form of tantra that will annihilate even the power and abilities he or she already has.

Students of tantra are therefore advised to check the antecedents of their tantra master before engaging him. Remember that genuine tantra knowledge does not come from books or plagiarized knowledge. A genuine tantra teacher has received his knowledge intact from an unbroken chain of ancient tantra mystics, and only this knowledge – pure and powerful – can work magic in your sex life.
