WHAT IS TANTRA

Sanskrit word Tantra literally means, "loom, weave, system". It means any systematic broadly applicable "system, method, technique, instrument or practice".

Tantra is not religion, it is not spiritual approach either, nor a meditation technique, but a pure prayer, a pure meditation, pure love. Is not the mind and its quality and equations, but a deep relaxation into the heart where love is. Tantra is no-mind. Tantra talks about techniques, methods and ways, but real Tantra has nothing to do with doing, it is simply the way of BEING. Tantra is not a religion, because it is neither for nor against reality. It accepts everything, all that is and all that isn’t, it unites positive and negative into one. In that approach of ultimate acceptance, Tantra creates a third force within you, where you are neither animal nor divine, you are not divided but united. You are awareness. You are not divided but united. You are beyond duality. You are non-dual. Choice will not take you to non-dual. Choosing one thing against other think is not the approach of Tantra, it is non-dualistic, the choice-less witnessing consciousness.

Tantra is not one of those dualistic spirituality, it is living religion, it is spirit in reality. Tantra doesn't have any dualistic philosophy, it doesn’t project or reject anything, it only unites and transcends. That is why it cannot be organized and institutionalized like official religion. Tantrism in general is a ritual-orientated system that requires the practice of yogic techniques and focused visualizations, and the linear geometrical constitution of the yantra are conceived exactly to meet the needs of such meditation. Tantra techniques and methods are not concerned with the compromising arrangements of certain elements in your life, but more like providing the opportunity for transcendence, by creating the entrance to nothingness. Ordinarily we see our day unfolding in between two nights. That perception is very logical, but Tantra sees it as two days with one night in between, and that my sound very illogical. That is a totally different perception, totally different logic, more fluids, more flexible, not rigid and fixed. When you fixed your logic, your perception is fixed and you interpret your life in very logical way. For Tantra, logic and illogic is simply irrelevant, they have no connections to reality, no context in reality. Logical perception and illogic perception are only mind games. Life is not logical, it is very much illogical, it is absurd. Logic is manufactured by the human mind. Mind will always demand to be either a Tantrica or a Yogi, to be either man or a woman, to be positive or negative, but not both together. Life is both together and that is the reason why the Tantra truth, or Tantra ‘logic’ is not imprinted in written scriptures, that you can read and follow. Tantra logical illogic is imprinted in Yantra diagrams. It is impregnated in your consciousness, in archetypal language of geometry.

Tantra is one of the inner science. It is a meeting with the opposite aspects of your energy, the inner woman and the inner men are in fusion of divine proportion. This fusion is the beginning and the end of Tantra. This fusion is living religion. Living religion is an individual approach towards Oneness.

Tantra is pure witnessing. The Tantric don’t claim his Human Rights not does it believe in his Divine Right, he is no animal, and he is no divine, but at the same time he is an animal and he is divine, he is beyond in oneness. Tantric don't create a conflict between two, he just open the third point within through the Yoga, Yantra and Mantra, he just create a gap between his consciousness and the mind. He become a third force - a witness.

Tantra is the present. It is not past or future, it is the truth right now, and if you are here and now, you are in transcendence. Then you are neither animal nor divine, male nor female, you are non of that and at the same time you are both of that.
