tantra

Tantra is a spiritual attitude that holds the key to bliss. It is a conscious journey to enlightenment, elevating our perception of opposites into unity. Sensual pleasure becomes a tool for realizing oneness, and for mastering joy. Studying tantra brings one closer and closer to awareness of the subtle energetics of life, how they move and flow, and how to feel empowered and surf with them.

“See the two… Realize the one!” Tantra literally means “to weave.” Weaving brings two separate elements of thread into one whole cloth. We practice within the harmonious balance, dynamic tensions, sensual delights, or dancing pleasures of opposites. Reflecting in the compliment of  “us” and “them”, the beloved becomes the Self, and the beauty we see in the other is our own. Tantra is an ancient path to divinity sprinkled with healing and joy.

In the modern world, there is a growing interest in Tantra. Dispersed through many age-old traditions, “tantric” is widely and loosely interpreted. Its roots are intertwined with Yoga.  Western Tantra, also called Neo-Tantra, has emerged as highly eroticized; this is an appropriate response in a spiritually starved, and sexually repressed culture.

My approach to teaching, through Ocean-Tantra-Yoga, is attunement. We are opening expanded consciousness thorough our natural connection to happiness, pleasure and ease. From there, we remove impurities, falsehood and energy blockages, while joy rises, naturally, abundantly, in waves of ecstasy.

When we realize that ecstasy is an inherent part of being human, that ecstatic consciousness is programmed in the hardware of our DNA, like Christ and the Buddha, when you fully accept and embrace this within yourself, you have reached the temple gate … come inside and dwell in bliss.
