EXPLORING SEX and SEXUALITY but not necessarily Tantra

INSPIRATIONAL - 2 people who shared their voice with the world despite the odds against them

 

Planet Yoga - Official Trailer from Productions InformAction on Vimeo (released 2012)

How did words like Nirvana, Karma, Guru, Meditation,  Reincarnation and “Om” come to be part of everyday language in the West? The answer lies in Yoga, the fastest growing spiritual practice around the world. 

A million dollar project, this film idea was the brainchild of Vancouver's Chakra Wellness teacher, Sri Venu, who shared his inspiration with those who listened. A wonderful overview of the many sides to Yoga.

PLANET YOGA tells the fascinating story of the encounter between the ancient eastern discipline of yoga and a western population. This convergence has given birth to the most popular mind‐body movement on the planet.

Featuring a colorful cast of characters, a compelling musical score, and unexpected locations on three continents, the film explores yoga’s social uses and its powerful attraction for a Western world in search of meaning.

Behind the joyful energy of Planet Yoga is the collective admission that materialism has hit the wall, and it is now time to look inwards for meaning and peace.

Vedic Knowledge and Tantra

The art of what it means to love and be loved, is Tantra.  Without this deeply satisfying awareness of ourselves at its core, we never really experience what Love truly is."  Divinea

It is important to keep an open mind when pursuing the path of Authentic Sacred Tantra and the Yoga's of Tantra as it is much misunderstood in the Western world. We have not been properly educated on the value of these ancient teachings, however, if you stay focused on the journey, the Truth and Wisdom embedded in these teachings, will take you far beyond what you ever dreamed possible.

According to the Yogis, ecstasy is our natural state of being. Yet most of us have suppressed that awareness. knowledge and sensitivity in every way possible, often shutting down the most important connection to our existence and the understanding of it.

The ancient knowledge of the Vedas (ancient Sanskrit texts originating in India), offer vast awareness and wisdom and include the  use and understanding of the Yogas of Tantra.

These incredibly revitalizing and wise teachings expand our Body-Mind-Spirit in every way possible. 

As we begin to remember, we find ourselves honoring Mother Earth as a reflection of the beauty we all seek in our lives.  In the Vedic teachings, she represents the Divine Mother of all.

As we expand further, we understand ourselves as eternal Divine beings, with a capacity to open our hearts and Love with a much more broadened perspective.

This view allows us to see the world and  the Source of our existence with new eyes and a deep sense of peace, clarity and connectedness with all of Creation.

The following videos are collected and shared to give one a wider perspective about the ancient Sanskrit wisdom known as the Vedas.

Although every video is not necessarily about the Vedas, they have been grouped together to give an overview of the many areas that vast body of knowledge covers and includes.

The Vedas are not meant to be shared as a religious teaching, but rather as universal truths, wisdom and spiritual knowledge for everyone.   

They are a valuable tool to re-awaken our remembrance of the Truth, Love and connection we all seek. 

They implore us on a quest for answers, all of which are found in the ancient Vedic texts such as The Bhagavad Gita, The Ramayan and The Mahabarata.

Who am I? 
Why am I here?
What is the source of my existence? 
Where am I going?

Avatar: Skeptics and Mystics - Jeffrey Armstrong
 

Within the pages of the multitude of volumes which encapsulate these universal Vedic Sanskrit teachings such as the Bhagavad-Gita, The Mahabharata, The Ramayan, we will find the answers to every conceivable question we may ask about our existence.

Many religions attempt to assume this role, but fall short in their teachings, often using fear  to manipulate and control what we feel or think, describing us as sinners of a God or Creative force that is punishing and to be feared. 

The Vedas in contrast offer a truly loving, simple and  compassionate spiritual perspective that goes way beyond where religion stops. Rather than existing as sinners under a wrathful god, we as humans, are considered amazing just for being here and going through all that we do in this crazy chaos of existence called the material world, 

The Vedas are designed to teach us how to navigate through this existence in a true state of balance regardless of what goes on around us. 

Incredibly simple tools and wisdom bring us ever closer to that place of mastery over the Body-MInd-Spirit as a whole.  This is the Yoga's of Tantra!

Acro Yoga with Hagar Tsabar and Elad Sadheh



 

 The origin of spirituality and every religion, all science and all medicine can be traced back to the stories contained in the ancient Sanskrit Vedas from India.  These ancient texts include the stories and wisdom contained in The Mahabharata, Bhagavad Gita, The Ramayan and The Rigveda, just to name a few.

One should be aware that this source of wisdom has been dissected, distorted and even partially reinvented into assorted religious doctrines to suit many cultures throughout the ages. As well, medicine and science have created separate camps from the religions in the Western and European worlds.  In India, medicine, science and spirituality are under one umbrella as Body-Mind-Spirit must be embraced as part of the whole.  Separated, they will never find peace and that is obvious in our world today.  This separation of the 3 bodies was a way to manipulate and segregate the masses from the Divine Truths carried within the vast knowledge known as the Vedas. 

Yoga's Vedic wisdom is a fascinating study of awareness that will open your eyes, create deep heartfelt peace and offer new perspective about our world, Creation, our Universe and the Cosmos and everything in it.

As we learn to embrace the postures (Asanas), knowledge (Vedanta), sounds (Mantras) and breath (Pranayama or life force) practices within our hearts, it becomes clear that we have discovered a way to connect to the cosmos through our very experience of Life and Love. 

One of the ways we may choose to explore this, is through the orgasmic or ecstatic process, which the Vedas say is our natural state of being. However, Authentic Sacred Tantra strives to take the focus of sex out of sensuality, by offering a much more deeply intimate view and connection to that intimate side of ourselves that we all seek to find or share with a partner. 

The Vedas say we seek this kind of Divine union, because it is where we originate.  We come from what we know deep inside.  We often seek a partner that we refer to as "the one."  According to the Vedas, "The One" we seek is actually the Source of our Existence and the severed cord that once connected us, creates the yearning we feel to reconnect. This invites us to be on a continual quest seeking who we are, where we come from, why we are here and where we are going.

In the western world, the once sacred arts of Tantra have been exploited in many distorted ways.  Most people think Tantra means sex or sexuality.  In actuality, Tantra means tension and weaving and represents the balance created by weaving the tension between Body-Mind-Spirit.

Authentic Sacred Tantra demonstrates how the ecstatic experience is readily available in many ways and forms.  We have disconnected from experiencing most of these ecstatic states and have been left with the physical expression.  This material world condition pulls and tugs us in many directions as it is run by our very primal, ancestral and uncontrolled unconscious energies. 

The Yogas of Tantra teach you how to harness true ecstatic energy so it nurtures and heals the Body-Mind-Spirit as a whole from a very conscious place. This gives us real power and allows for a greatly expanded view of our ecstatic side and our connection to everything from this place of understanding.  This is real power and conscious, truthful, ecstatic Love in action.

Thus the path of the Yoga's of Tantra share how we may choose to enjoy that self exploration and self-mastery through the journey to rediscover the ultimate and deeply intimate connection with the Divine, Creation, Nature, ourselves and another if we so choose.  Authentic Sacred Tantra is in fact,  the awareness of that ultimate union with ourselves and the Source of our Existence that begins within.

Sanskrit Mantras and Chants

Chanting mantras or Sadhana, is done in many ancient cultures. In the Vedic traditions, it is considered one of the best ways to easily tap into Creation, God or Divine energy as we know it. Vedic Teacher and international author Jeffrey Armstrong says, "It is like dialing our cell phone to the right channel to connect with that source."

 

Mellow Mantras

As we train ourselves in one-pointed focus with chanting mantras, we also energetically shift the very cells in our body, with these magical energetic signatures.  This is one of the many ways we may use to clear our body temple of past collected baggage. Chanting mantras prior to sunrise is recommended.

The Gayatri Mantra is highly revered in Hindu culture.

Found in all four of the Vedas, or ancient Sanskrit teachings. Gayatri is seen as a Divine awakening of the mind and soul and within it, a way to reach the most Supreme form of existence, and the way to Union with Brahman or God. Understanding, and purely loving the essence of the Gayatri Mantra is seen by many to be one, if not the most powerful ways to attain attunement with the Divine or God.

In the book known as the Bhagavad-Gita (Song of the Lord), Krishna (Creator of this Universe) declares, that of all the mantras, He is Gayatri.

Gayatri Mantra in Sanskrit transliteration

Om bhūr bhuvah svah
Tat savitur varenyam
Bhargo devasya dhīmahi
Dhiyo yo nah pracodayāt


Gayatri Mantra means:
"Oh God, the giver of life, remover of pains and sorrows, bestower of happiness and creator of the Universe.  You are most luminous, pure and adorable. We meditate on Thee. May You inspire and illumine our intellect that we may perform noble and virtuous actions".

Om Namaha Shivaya

Om Namah Shivaya (5 syllable Panchakshara Mantra) is a most potent and popular mantra.  It is at the heart of the Vedas and Tantra, and is widely used in this and other variations in the Himalayan tradition.

The 5 syllables represent the five elements...earth, water, fire, air, and space. Thus, this mantra leads awareness in the reverse order from manifestation back to the source from which manifestation arose.

 

Up Beat Mantras

For best results it is recommended we chant in the mornings within 1 3/4 hours of a sunrise completing. The supporting energies of the moon, sun and planet are much more amplified at this time to create more profound results. Mantra chanting is also suggested throughout the day whenever creating, cooking or cleaning.  Food is much more charged and alive when prepared with chanting.

Kinsey - Sex researcher from the 40's

Movie Trailer starring Liam Neeson

The fascinating life story of Alfred Kinsey, a man driven to uncover the most private secrets of the nation, and a journey into the mystery of human behavior.

74 years after Kinseys research in the 40's, we have barely progressed in our awareness about sex and sensuality.

To this day important secrets such as Authentic Sacred Tantra holds, have often been buried or hidden away from general awareness of the masses, just as the truth about our bodies and sexuality was in Kinsey's time.

A purposeful oversight to manipulate, control and keep us ignorant, ancient sensual secrets have been avoided and buried by both our religious and medical systems.

Authentic Sacred Tantra shares a taste of the incredible healing power we all hold within when sensual secrets are utilized appropriately.

This movie is presented as part of the Tantra Movie Night events held by Divinea, complete with popcorn, appetizers and refreshments.

 

Kinsey - continued...

In 1948 Kinsey irrevocably changed American culture and created a media sensation with his book "Sexual Behavior in the Human Male".

Using the technique of his own famous sex interviews, story recounts the scientist's extraordinary journey from obscurity to global fame.

Rebelling against the rigid piety of his home life, and drawn to the world of the senses, Kinsey becomes a Harvard-educated zoologist specializing in the study of gall wasps.

After being hired to teach biology at Indiana University, Kinsey meets and marries a witty, freethinking female student, Clara McMillen. In the course of his teaching he discovers an astonishing dearth of scientific data on sexual behavior.

When students seek him out for advice about sexual concerns and problems, he realizes that no one has done the clinical research that would yield reliable answers to their questions.

Inspired to explore the emotionally charged subject of sex from a strictly scientific point of view, Kinsey recruits a team of researchers and over time they refine an interviewing technique, which helps people to break through shame, fear, and guilt and speak freely about their sexual histories.

When Kinsey publishes his Male study in 1948, the press compares the impact to that of the atom bomb.

But as the country enters the more paranoid Cold War era of the 1950s, Kinsey's follow-up study on women is seen as an attack on basic American values.

The ensuing outrage and scorn causes Kinsey's benefactors to abandon him, just as his health begins to deteriorate.

At the same time, the jealousies and acrimony caused by Kinsey's attempt to create a private sexual utopia threaten to tear apart the research team and expose them to unwelcome scrutiny.
