Traditional Tantra Yoga

TRADITIONAL TANTRA

TANTRA is a spiritual path of liberation and reintegration with the absolute.

Tantra is an authentic inner revolution , it means stripping oneself of all religious faiths, morals, bonds, prejudices, breaking the taboos, beliefs and dogmas imposed by any religion or society.

Tantra teaches us to free ourselves from false programs and stereotypes, to accept life in all its fullness by awakening all human and cosmic energies,to conceive the infinite and the timeless truth.

KAULA AND SHAKTA LINEAGES

KAULA lineage or also Kula, indicates a set of tantric traditions deriving from the Kapālika practices (literally "worshippers of the Kapālin", the Skull Bearer - one of the names of Śiva.

SHAKTA Lineage

SAKTI or SHAKTI means strength, power, feminine energy, it is the feminine manifestation of the divine. The veneration of the various forms of Shakti is widespread in India.

MISUNDERSTANDINGS AND MYTHS

In the West, Tantra is almost exclusively associated with sex, as a set of techniques to increase pleasure or for couples in crisis.

In reality Tantra is an INITIATORY WAY : a Tāntrika adept is an initiate, which implies the presence of a Guru or Guru Ma , therefore a direct transmission from Master to student.

the Tāntrika, through Sadhana , transcends his earthly limits, learning to develop presence and conscious intimate listening.

Citiḥ svatantrā viśvasiddhihetuḥ
