THE THREE GREAT SECRETS TO TANTRIC SUCCESS (PART ONE)

There are three great secrets to success in tantric practice (tantric practice is called "sadhana"). These three
secrets are necessary for all types of tantric sadhana, be the sadhana meditative, physical, sexual, religious,
magical, or mundane...

The First Great Secret to Tantric Success is having the right Tools for the Practice, and understanding their use.
This requires initiation (introduction or immersion) from someone already proficient in the sadhana... The tools
themselves may be techniques or ritual implements.
They in turn fall into three more classifications:
external,
internal,
and secret

External tools for tantra include:

•ritual implements like holy symbols(yantras), objects, and texts

•external physical gestures with the hands or body, including hatha
yoga postions and sexual positions,
•sexual techniques, dance movements and choreography,
•ritual fires,
•sacred spaces like temples, caves, or crematory grounds,
•audibly chanted mantra, etc...

External Tantra helps to symbolize what must occur internally... to point the way for the newly initiated. It also
provides a framework to pass on from teacher to student, and a safety net for the practitioner.
