These do not look like healthy statistics and it becomes all the
more important for people to reform their ways and start
having more sex, in order to lead better lives and have
fulfilling relationships.
When you are following the path of Tantric sec, you will have
to pay attention to your actions while making love to your
partner. If you are mindful of your actions, you can ensure that
you are inducing a sense of reverence and respect for your
partner. You will begin to honor your partner as the god or
goddess he or she represents.
The main goal of tantric sex is to help you find a release from
your mind and your body. When you find this release, you will
be able to express yourself with ease and find that there is
deeper love that will touch your soul.
You identify what has hurt you in the past. This could have
been real hurt or imaginary. You will have to identify the
difference. This is done through sexual stimulation.
You will be able to find a release to any emotion that is
attached to this hurt.
You will be able to replace your hurt with tons of powerful
and positive emotions and experiences.
Myth
Tantric sex is only about sex!
Truth
Tantric sex does not always require a genital contact. It only
deals with connecting the souls of both partners through
energy. Intercourse or the contact between the genitals only
increases the connection between the souls. But this is done
only when the couple is ready for that level of intimacy.
Myth
If you practice the art of Tantra you are giving up on attaining
pleasure.
Truth
This myth is based on the first myth mentioned. This is an
extreme belief that is not true! Tantra does not mean that you
have to renounce any sexual pleasure, though some yogic
practices do. Tantra helps in enhancing your level of joy and
pleasure. Tantric sex does not deny you desires. You do not
have to mimic a yogi sitting cross-legged and meditating.
Tantra recognizes that sex plays a powerful role in every
person’s life. Tantric sex helps you harness the power and to
achieve bliss. This bliss is beyond the bliss attained through
physical pleasure.
Myth
Tantric sex increases your need for sex and pleasure, which
leads to affairs.
Truth
Tantric sex does neither increase your sexual appetite nor
makes you indulge uncontrollably in sex. Instead it helps you
control your desires and also channel them for a higher
purpose that you are not familiar with. There are people who
believe that on the pretext of Tantric sex they can indulge in
sexual relationships with multiple partners. That is however
not the true essence of the Tantra. The Tantra is about the
strong physical and spiritual commitment between two people.
You must remember that sexuality is not supposed to be
thrown away mindlessly. It needs to be honored and to ensure
that you attain higher levels of consciousness instead of only
attaining satisfaction. You will learn to control yourself when
you are around other people since you believe that you can
resist any sexual urges that you have for a person when you
are with a partner. You learn to build a relationship that does
not always need a physical connection.
Myth
If you practice Tantric sex, you will turn into a
nymphomaniac.
Truth
It is true that Tantric sex does release an immense amount of
sexual energy. It is also true that you are giving yourself the
green signal to express yourself explicitly. Hence there are
chances that you may misuse these techniques to ensure that
you are satiated. But you have to restrain yourself. You will
have to overcome any overwhelming needs that will lead you
to practice meaningless and random sex.
The Ten pledges of Tantra
When you have decided to follow the path of tantric sex, there
are ten pledges that you have to remember. Before you begin
on the path, you have to see how you feel about the pledges.
You should feel a sense of peace while reading the pledges
stated below.
When you are paying attention to your actions, you are being a
witness. This will help you overcome any kind of anxiety.
When men or women are making love, they have a million
doubts about their stamina and whether or not what they are
doing pleases their partner. When you are following the path
of tantric sex, you are playing witness to yourself. You are
paying attention to your thoughts and are working on focusing
your attention to your partner. You will be able to pay attention
to your body and to your partner’s body and will also be able
to focus on your breath! The following section covers three
techniques that you can use to be both a participant and an
observer.
Mantras
Have you ever been terribly bored and begun to hum a sound
continuously? Did it seem to have a hypnotic effect on you?
Mantras are just the same. They are silent or spoken sounds
and elicit reactions from the body due to their vibrations.
These vibrations correspond with the seven chakras in the
body. If you have never felt it before, say ‘Om’ and draw deep
breaths corresponding to the ‘Om’. You will find that you are
able to focus your mind. You can also control the movement of
energy within your body. This works in the same way that
your favorite music does. You will find yourself calming
down. You might also find yourself in an entirely different
world. When you use mantras, you find that you are able to go
where your mind takes you.
The sounds made while saying the mantras are short and
repetitive. It is this repetition that causes the hypnotic effect.
They might also be a single word, a sentence or a verse. If you
find that you do not know any mantra, make up one on your
own. It could be a word or a phrase or even a simple sound
that you would like to say!
Yantras
A yantra is a mathematical technique that is used. You may not
like mathematics, but you should know that geometric figures
are very essential when it comes to tantric sex. You will have
to focus on the images that stimulate your sexuality. You have
to keep in mind the figures that have stimulated a certain
sexual response from you. When you are making love and find
yourself feeling anxious, you have to focus on such figures.
Different geometric symbols relate to the seven different
chakras within our body. It is in these chakras that the energy
is stored. A famous Yantra is the sex point David star.
Things you should know about Tantric sex
All of you must have heard about tantric sex, from one source
or the other. It is quite natural that you are confused about
what tantric sex is all about. The reason for this is quite
simple; the way it is portrayed in movies and on TV is quite
different from what it is all about. Therefore it does not come
as a surprise that most people do not know what it actually
comprises of. Not just this, but there is also a stigma of sorts
that is associated with tantric sex. It is considered by many as
a weird form of pornography or even voodoo. All this is not
true and is completely baseless. Tantric sex is in fact based on
the principal of tantra. Tantra is an ancient art to achieve
fulfillment and enlightenment; it is about living one’s life in a
manner that is free and open. To put it simply, Tantric sex is
not a crazy practice; it is all about achieving a stronger and a
more meaningful bond of intimacy with your partner. But this
is not the only quality that differentiates Tantra from regular
sex. Following are some facts that are surely going to change
your perception of Tantra and might provide you with the
motivation to try it.
Men always worry about the size of their penis. They also
worry about whether or not they are able to give their partners
pleasure. Most often, they do not know how to commit to their
partners and always worry about how long they can last while
making love. When they follow the path of tantric sex, they
feel empowered since they are honored as god. They tend to
become confident and are open to a relationship. They also
become caring and shower their partner with immense love.
Immense Satisfaction
There are times when you have made love and have felt that
there is something that was missing. You may feel that you are
not finished with the sex. This happens often since sex does
not go beyond intercourse. Sex alone does not touch a person’s
heart. In tantric sex, you find that you are able to reach that
state where you find yourself nurtured. You find that every cell
in your body has found its mate in your partner’s body. When
you have had sex that touches the heart, you find that you have
a content mind and body.
Alleviates Depression
Tantric sex is your personal psychiatrist. It helps you
overcome anxiety and depression. You may be tired and also
find it difficult to eat or sleep. Tantric sex works wonders
when it comes to the aforementioned problems. It helps in
eradicating the problem. You find yourself with an immense
amount of energy that helps spread a peace and calm
throughout your body and mind.
When you begin to follow the path of tantric sex, you begin to
find a change in yourself. You find yourself changing how you
view yourself and how you view the world. You find yourself
looking at relationships that will last a lifetime. Through your
journey, you will learn that every man and woman has a
certain level of divinity in them. You will start to view sex as a
sacred act instead of just a physical act. You will also learn to
love deeper and find that you are soaring to different levels of
bliss.
You will learn the basic concepts of tantric sex and identify
new exciting ways to life and love. This chapter will be worth
it!
The Yin and the Yang: Which is male and which is
female?
You must be familiar with the stereotypes that men are from
Mars and women are from Venus. This implies that men are
assertive and extremely powerful while women are soft and
fragile who are only fit for nurturing. There are other
stereotypes that men do not show any feelings whatsoever,
while women have a plethora of emotion that is ready to
unleash itself in a second. It has also been said that women do
not take credit for the work that they do, since being outgoing
is something only men are familiar with. Over the last few
years there has been a drastic change in the way men and
women think.
Tantric sex is a firm follower of the fact that men and women
do have opposite characteristics. This is the elementary
principle of the Tantra. The eastern theories claim that the Yin
represents feminism while the Yang represents masculinity.
But there is no concrete proof that a woman cannot have Yang
characteristics or that a man cannot have Yin characteristics.
Rather than viewing men and woman as two entities, you
should begin to focus on the energies. The Tantra believes in
the amalgamation of these two energies.
Shiva and Shakti
The most common image of the Yin and the Yang is the Hindu
divine couple Lord Shiva and Goddess Shakti. Lord Shiva
represents the entire universe since he is considered the creator
and Goddess Shakti represents the root of all energy. The
union of the two deities creates a longing in you and every
other human being to be treated as a god or a goddess. This is
discussed in detail in the following chapters. You will learn to
worship your partner as a god or a goddess.
You must align your bodies in such a way that your speech
flows freely and you can maintain a constant eye contact.
Avoid closing your eyes while your partner is talking and
make a note of all the emotions that are emoted while talking.
It might take some time to establish long periods of eye gazing
but keeping at it will help you attain perfection.
Smile
Have a smile or a pleasant face when you speak during sex.
Avoid making funny faces or pretending like you are not
interested in speaking. When you establish a certain level of
connection with your partner then your facial expressions will
automatically turn pleasant.
Speaking your mind out
Speak your mind out. Do not hold on to thoughts or look for
the right opportunity. Tell your partner everything that comes
to mind and try speaking from the heart. Allow your mind to
guide your body language speak your heart.
Emote
Make use of your hands and add to your speech. Make
symbols and signs and tell your partner as to how much they
pleasure you. Use facial expressions to convey messages. Use
them in tandem with your speech to add leverage to it. Don’t
be afraid to smile/laugh/cry when you speak, as it will help
your partner empathize and connect with you better. There are
certain hand mudras that you can make, which will help you
channel your energy and thoughts and allow you to emote it in
a better way.
Avoid doing things that can be putting off - like grinding your
teeth or crackling your knuckles and concentrate on looking
into your partner’s eye.
Encourage and evoke
When you speak to your partner, make sure that you
encourage them to speak up. It has to be mutual and you have
to make communication a two-way street. Say things that will
evoke a response and respond to your partner’s stimuli. Do not
keep talking non-stop and allow your partner to respond to
you. Do not judge or pass comments about what your partner
says. Give them time and allow them to come into their own.
Clarity
When talking to a partner before or after sex, it is important to
be clear. Voice modulation is important and you need to be
clear and audible. Nobody likes a mumbling person and
someone who talks nonsense without thinking. It becomes
important to know exactly what to say and when and change
the levels and pitch of the voice accordingly. Put some thought
into it before you speak and simply don’t shoot your mouth
just to keep talking.
Do not tire yourself out by talking too much and have a few
fluid and pertinent thoughts channeled and emoted. Allow
your energy to flow freely and look at the sea of difference
that it will make for you and your partner.
Honesty
Be honest and speak your mind out. Try avoiding exaggerating
or lying about something just to make it sound nice. Keep it
simple and truthful in order to express yourself in the best
manner possible.
Breathing
Concentrate on your breathing and time your breaths. Do not
speak constantly and forget to breathe as it can slow you down
and make you speak in a low voice. Be aware of your
breathing and have a good control over it.
Chapter 5: Spin Your Chakras And
Breathe To Ecstasy
There are many practices that you will come across in this
book. These practices are fun and you may find them
fascinating! These practices include different sounds, symbols
and sights that will help you on your journey to ecstasy. You
will learn a few techniques in this chapter. You will need to
practice these techniques in order to perfect them. The most
important aspect of tantric sex is what you are doing this very
second: breathing. It is very important that you breathe
properly in order to ensure that you are able to attain the
deepest level of intimacy and the highest level of bliss.
Egg to Eagle
This is a great technique to use when you are sitting. You will
have to bend into the shape of a ball. When you are bending
you have to exhale swiftly. Bring your hands close to your
body and place them on the back of your head. Do you feel
your back stretching? Inhale and move up slowly into your
sitting position. Stretch your hands as far back as you can.
Ensure that your elbows are behind you. You should now feel
your chest stretching. Arch your back and throw your chest
out. You will now feel all the air rushing into your chest.
Continue this exercise. You will be able to breathe well after a
few repetitions.
The Wells
The aim of this exercise is to take air into your lungs. You will
have to take a lot of air into your lungs. This can only be done
when you think of your lungs as wells. You will be able to
increase the virtual capacity of your lungs. Keep your arms to
your side. After you have inhaled, hold the air for a few
seconds and blow all the air out with immense force. It should
sound like a gust of wind. Then suck in the air by making as
much noise as possible. You will make such sound while
making love to your partner. Through this exercise, you will
be able to ensure that the sounds you make during sexual
intercourse are intense!
Chapter 6: Identify And Worship The
God Or Goddess Within You
Over the course of the chapter, you will be able to identify the
divinity in you. You will be able to identify the god and the
goddess within yourself and your partner. This is the essence
of tantric sex. You will also be able to achieve enlightenment.
The chapter covers the different gods and goddesses that are
popular in the tantra. You can relate yourself to these
goddesses and identify your divinity.
What is meant by the terms ‘God’ and ‘Goddess’?
As mentioned above, in tantra every man and woman is treated
as a god or a goddess. This is to ensure that you consider
yourself as a god or a goddess and consider your partner as the
same. That way you will honor and respect them in the way
you would your god or goddess. You will also be able to honor
the power that exists in the universe.
Tantric sex states that no matter what the race, religion or caste
of the person he or she is a god or a goddess, respectively. By
calling a woman a goddess you are honoring her
characteristics of being a lover, hunter, seductress, a healer, a
wild woman and a nurturing mother. Only when she accepts
these characteristics in herself will she be able to honor herself
and be honored by her partner and people around her. By
addressing a man as god, you are honoring his characteristics
of being a protector, a provider, and a symbol of power, a
healer and a person with a surrendering nature. He has to
accept these characteristics within himself and be honored by
his partner! You may display these characteristics or it may be
in you, and you are yet to discover it.
Identify your roles and characteristics
When you begin your journey on the path leading to Tantric
sex, you will have to first identify the gods and goddesses that
are define you. For this you will have to identify your
characteristics and also identify the roles you play in life. Are
you beautiful? Are you a hunter? Are you an entrepreneur?
Are you powerful? And so on. You will have to write down all
the answers to such questions. To make it simpler, you can
create a collage of yourself. You could place your picture in
the center of a sheet of paper and indicate all your
characteristics and roles through text or pictures.
Once you have read about the different gods and goddesses
mentioned in the latter part of the chapter, you could write the
names of the deities that you relate to most. For instance, if
you had written that you are a hunter you can relate yourself
‘Artemis’ and if you had written that you were powerful, you
could relate to either ‘Ares’ or ‘Shiva’.
Look beyond the superficial aspect of a being
Have you heard of the phrase, ‘never judge a book by its
cover’? Everybody has! Yet we still resort to judging a person
by the way they look, dress or what job they have. You may
have made statements like ‘She is fat’ or ‘He is too short’. You
may have also looked at the person’s bank account before you
went on a date with the person or got married to the person.
But when it comes to tantra, there is no such thing as a bank
account. You have to look beyond the superficial
characteristics of the person and identify the divinity that
exists within the person.
There are three essential steps that you have to follow in order
to worship the divinity in your partner through the path of
Tantra.
When you are following the path of tantric sex, you will find
that you love hearing good things about you and you will also
compliment your partner. This is what it means to be
worshipped as a god or a goddess.
Eros
He is commonly known as the Cupid in both Roman and
Greek mythologies. He is a little boy or a cherub who is
mischievous and often aims arrows of love at people around
him. He is the God of love!
Dionysus
He is the God in both the Greek and Roman myths, who has
indulged in lust. He is a person who always chased women
and indulged in drinking wine. He is the god of lust.
Chapter 7: Prepare Your Temple Of
Love; Your Body
The path of tantric sex proclaims that your body is the temple
of love. You have to ensure that you keep it healthy. You have
to be fit in order to attain higher levels of ecstasy. This chapter
gives you a few tips that you can use to keep your temple fit
and healthy.
There are certain yoga positions that you can use to help
facilitate the flow of energy in your body. The practices
mentioned in this chapter are of great importance since they
will help you channel and control your sexual energy.
When you have a clogged drain at home, you will not have a
free flow of water. In the same way, if your digestive system is
clogged the flow of energy in your body is interrupted. You
will have to cleanse your body of toxins occasionally. You can
do this by eating raw fruits or going on juice fasts. But every
approach is not right for you. What works for one will not
work for another person. It is best to meet a nutritionist in
order to identify the perfect diet for your body. You must
ensure that this diet facilitates your journey.
Chapter 8: Exercising and Getting Fit
Together
When you work out with your lover, you will find that it pays
off immediately. Since you are exercising, you will have a
burst of adrenaline in your body. The love hormone –
endorphin - and the cuddle hormone – oxytocin – are both
released. This prepares your body to ensure pleasure during
sex and love.
Pelvic thrusts with your partner
The motions made by any person using the pelvic area
generate the most powerful sexual energy. You must first
perform these pelvic thrusts alone. Once you have learnt how
to do them well, you will be able to do them with your partner.
Play some music that is erotic and gets your blood to sing.
Stand facing each other. Once you are comfortable, you can
move around however you want to. Start thrusting at a low
height. Continue to thrust while you move from standing up to
lying down on your back. When you follow your mood, you
will be able to end up in an intimate position. You can make it
more fun by adding elements of surprise.
This sounds very simple does it not? You only have to thrust
your pelvis forward and backward. But this is not true. Most
human beings have a stiff pelvis and find it difficult to thrust.
Stand with your shoulders apart and tuck your sacrum in.
Thrust your hip forward and backward. Start slowly and
increase the pace. You have to keep your torso stiff and isolate
your hips. You will feel the energy surging through your body.
You must send the energy out to your partner. You can use
your hands to guide the energy to your partner from his pelvis
to his heart.
Tonight I’m going to dance with you
Have you always been conscious when you dance? Do you
rarely dance outside? But have you danced when you were
alone at home? Did you feel energetic? Did you find that your
body was active? Dancing is a brilliant exercise. You find
yourself freeing your spirit through dancing. When you dance
with your partner, you will be moving together which helps in
increasing the sexual energy in the body. You will be able to
get more interactive through dancing. You have to use the
movements in your dance to show your partner that you are
interested in him or her. You have to identify how you can
express your desire.
The serpent
The woman will have to slowly stretch the shaft of the man’s
penis with one hand and let the other hand make circles with
thumb and index fingers right under the penis head. Continue
these motions in a clockwise manner till the thumb reaches the
penis head and off it. Continue these motions for as long as the
man can endure it.
The passion between you and your lover must have almost
reached a feverish pitch and the swells of pleasure you both
have been experiencing till now will ensure that your orgasm
is mind blowing. Remember to gaze into each other’s eyes to
stay in the moment and in sync with each other. The following
positions can be thought of as seismic climax positions,
definitely worth giving a try.
The Tantra X
In this position the man has to sit cross-legged and the woman
will have to kneel over his lap and should be facing him. Both
the lovers must be able to gaze into each other’s eyes. The
woman has to place her calves under the man’s knees and
while he is entering her, she can use her thigh muscles to
lower herself onto him and continue to move in this position as
slowly as you can. There is no need to rush. Keep both your
bodies as close to each other as possible and breathe in slowly.
You both should be able to feel the other breathe. The
advantage of this position is that you have the freedom to
caress each other, fondle and kiss. It provides unrestricted
access.
The seesaw
There is nothing innocent about this seesaw. It is extremely
erotic. The woman has to lie on her back with just her pelvis
being slightly titled. This can be done by making use of a
small pillow. The man has to lift her feet in a way that ensures
that her legs are folded and curled in, with her knees resting on
her breasts and her soles touching his chest. What this position
does is, it lets the man to hit your G-Spot every time he thrusts
into you. It lets him penetrate deeply and after all the foreplay
it is definitely bound to help you both combust in sexual
flames within no time.
These are the various basic and sexy tantric sex positions that
you can try with your partner and ignite a whole new level of
passion.
Chapter 10: Tantric Exercises
Kegels
Keels help women strengthen and tighten their pelvic floor
muscles. This helps tighten the grip and heighten the
experience for both parties. To perform this technique, the girl
must pull in the muscles that are placed inside the vagina and
release. The suction can last as long as is comfortable. The
exercise can be done just about anywhere and at any time.
Breathing techniques
Kapalbhatti
Kapalbhatti is a breathing technique that is great to perform
especially just before the man has an orgasm. The exercise can
also be practiced every morning in order to perfect it. To
perform this technique, the man must assume the lotus pose
and sit in an open-air setting. He must then take several fast
and sharp breaths that focus more on the exhale. The mouth
must be closed and the exhaling must create a loud sound. Do
about 3 sets.
Pranayama
Pranayama can be practiced by both sexes and helps assist in
the controlled breathing that takes place during tantric sex. To
perform the technique, a person must assume the lotus pose
and sit in an open-air setting. The person must then place the
right thumb on the right nostril; pressing it tightly to block the
airway, the pointing finger in the center of the forehead and
breath in through the left nostril and hold the breath for a
couple of seconds. Then the right nostril must be freed and the
middle finger must be pressed against the left nostril to block
it and the air must be exhaled through the right nostril.
For the next set, the air is inhaled through the right and
exhaled through the left.
Repeat 5 times.
Chapter 11: Some Quick Tantric Tips
Try out different positions and use different toys. For those so
inclined, try the Yoni or the Lingam massage. Yoni is the
Sanskrit word for vagina that is loosely translated as the
‘sacred temple’. Lingam, on the other hand, is the Sanskrit
word for penis, translated to mean ‘wand of light’. The
Lingam/Yoni massages are excellent activities to build up trust
and intimacy. Unlike normal penetrative sex, it implies getting
to know your lover’s body as well as you do your own. And it
also means allowing another person to touch, feel, taste and
feel those parts of yourself that are entirely your own an are
vulnerable. Obviously, it creates a form of intimacy and trust
that far exceeds normal sex, especially because orgasm is not
the primary goal here.
Here are the steps you can follow to render your partner
gasping with arousal by massaging their Lingam/Yoni
Lingam Massage
The goal of the massage is not to experience orgasm, but
simply surrender to a form of pleasure males are generally
unused to. This can serve as sort of sexual and spiritual
liberation. For so long, men have been conditioned into taking
the dominant, goal-oriented role. Here, you allow yourself to
face your softer, more receptive side, and feel incredible
pleasure from a non-traditional source.
To begin with, the woman lies on her back, with pillows under
her head so as to meet her partner’s gaze. Keep your legs
parted, with knees lightly bent, allowing your partner full
access to your vagina. Both partners breathe in deeply.
Here, too, the oil comes into play. Pour a few drops right on
drop of oil on the mound of the Yoni, so that it drips down the
outer lips – this sensation can be more than a little arousing.
Gently massage around the outer lips, using slow and
deliberate strokes – do not rush. Squeeze the outer lip between
the index finger and the thumb, and slowly move to touch the
inner lips. Make eye contact with the receiver and vary the
speed and pressure of your strokes. Note your partner’s body
language to see what she likes and dislikes.
As you stroke the clitoris with your left hand, use your right to
gently insert the middle finger into the Yoni opening. Keep to
the left and right pattern; it has to do with polarity in Tantra.
Explore and massage the inside of the Yoni with your right
middle finger; curl it back toward your palm in ‘come here’
gesture. You will feel a spongy tissue just under the pubic
bone that will render her speechless – this is the infamous G-
spot. Remember, the aim is to massage and pleasure, not get
your partner off, so once again, if you feel that she’s going to
climax, back off. If she does climax, gently hold her through
it and begin massaging again if she so wishes.
Both the Lingam and the Yoni massages are more than a little
arousing and allow for an emotional intimacy to develop
between the two partners. Another idea that has become a
time-tested cliché to build this kind of deeper connect is post-
coital cuddling. Here, both partners just relax into each other,
holding one another comfortably. Synchronize your breathing
and listen to the sound of your heartbeats – what you’re doing
is feeling the life and the cosmic energy you’ve expended in
sex pulsing beneath your veins.
Most of the couples might shy away from all the effort that
needs to go into it in the form of meditation and abstaining for
a long time, so here are a few tips that might come in handy
for you.
Eye gazing needn’t mean that you and your partner just sit and
stare at each other; you can incorporate this into foreplay. Or
you might as well take out five minutes from your everyday
schedule to practice this with your partner. You will fall in
love with each other over and over again, not just this but even
your love making will be much hotter.
Eye contact might be one of the simplest things that you can
do o help improve your sex life, so why not just give it a
whirl? The results might pleasantly surprise you.
Trick#2: Touch
Tantra is very sensual in nature and the whole [pint of this
ancient art is to allow you the power to explore the sensuality
of not just your partner but even yourself with teasing and
strain. What would probably be more sensual than being able
to touch each other? One of the key elements of tantra is the
stress it outs on touch. Tantra is all about making each of the
touches count. Touch is an essential manner in which we
communicate with others. And in the same manner you can
communicate with your partner through touch. If you are
preoccupied about your work, chores or a million other things,
then your touch will feel vacant and distant. And a touch of
this sort will not be of much help.
Usually with all the couples these days, their tensions and
worries from work seem to piggyback home with them. With
all the constant stress, getting into a sensual mood to ignite the
spark of sexual activity might get really difficult. The tricks
mentioned here hardly take any time or effort. And these have
been tried, so the results will be pleasing indeed. Touch needs
to conscious; your touch should be able to convey to your
partner what exactly is that you need from them. This will not
just make your sexual intercourse more exciting but it will also
build your sexual appetite. You should not just be aware of
where and how you are touching your partner, but you should
also be able to convey your intention to your partner.
Tantra first came to the West in the late 19th century. This is
why it was seen as a bit of a sexual reprieve because this was
also the Victorian period, one of the most infamous periods
regarding sexual repression. However, this did not mean that
the Victorians were shy of discussing other peoples’
sexualities. Because of their depravations, they found their
solace in the sexual aspects of Tantra. Many historians have
compared this to buying a brand new house and only talking
about its roof. Tantra is very vast and much more than simple
sex.
The beauty of the Middle Pillar is that it, like many esoteric
practices, is really a layered exercise. Containing an almost
infinite amount of flexibility and growth potential. As the
practitioner develops in skill and manipulation of the imagery,
the amount of new possibilities increases.
If you continue with this exercise, you will feel your libido
increase dramatically in a short amount of time. Your sex life
will improve and so will your stamina and your pleasure.
Chapter 13 The Science behind Tantric
Sex
What Is Tantra?
Tantra is not a new phenomenon in Eastern cultures. However,
its introduction to the West and especially the United States is
relatively new. The origins of Tantra can be traced back
thousands of years before the Common Era in India. It was
originally introduced as a rebellion of sorts against Hinduism
that posited, the way so many religions do, that sex was the
route to evil and must be avoided in order to obtain
enlightenment.
Remember that the best part of Tantric sex is that you do not
have to meet with any set expectations. This opens the doors
to communication and you can try to discover, both of you
together if need be, what your partner finds most arousing.
Try and communicate with your lover for a long time, spend
multiple weeks simply indulging in the Tantric Intimacy
Exercises without feeling the burden to do something.
Practicing such an intimacy act without the pressure to go all
the way helps to relieve sexual guilt for all partners and helps
to build trust and sexual desire fully.
The Exercises
If you feel that you cannot achieve a level of intimacy deep
enough to let you indulge in tantric sex to the fullest, here are
some intimacy exercises that can help you reach your aim of
supreme ecstasy.
Assign a Ritual
Sometimes, you might not be feeling spontaneous. For a lot of
people, sex needs to be in a series of steps that are in the form
of a ritual because it gives them a sense of knowing as if they
are in a secure place. If that is the case with you, start your
session with a regular activity that is ritualistic in nature.
This might consist of anything. Be it a simple act of feeding
each other some food you both enjoy or having a nice relaxing
drink when you are both not wearing clothes. A lot of couples
enjoy indulging in an aromatherapy bath as it helps them to get
intimate. This is a good way to get close to your partner. Water
is a great relaxant and it is also, surprisingly, a drink that has
some serious sexual potency.
Take care and time to wash each other with love. Be gentle or
as vigorous as you see your partner is being with themselves.
Giving each other a back rub is also useful and it fuses your
energies. Some couples enjoy reading to each other as well.
You can also try to play some music or simply put it on and
dance it to it in order to get the both of you more comfortable.
Use your time together as if it were your last time together and
communicate with them. Share what you love about each other
and leave past grievances aside. The whole purpose of this is
to allow you and your partner to make each other feel special
and loved.
Don’t worry if getting intimate is taking you a lot of time. The
whole point is to make the lovemaking about you, rather than
turning it into a mechanical way to sate your sexual desires. It
is actually quite common for sexual partners to try out several
different sex rituals over a period of weeks before they achieve
the appropriate level of intimacy.
One piece of advice to keep in mind is that there is no way to
gauge if you two are ready to have sex. At a certain point, the
intimacy will have reached a level that you will just know, and
within moments you will be in the throes before you know it.
Breathing Exercises
How many times a day do you actively breathe while thinking
about it? Probably not a lot of times unless you’re actually
having trouble doing so in the first place. However, in Tantric
sex, breathing is a very important part of the sex. Applying
tantric breathing techniques can also allow you to remove any
distracting thoughts from your mind so that you can focus on
your lover.
Erotic Touching
Try out different types of sensual touching in order to help
your partner and yourself appreciate each other. If not for sex
itself taking the top spot, erotic touching would surely be the
primary activity that humans engage in because it is so
effective. In many ways it is even more effective than sex
itself because hands are more deft and agile!
Keep your partner going by offering encouragement. A great
way to do this is to ask your partner to touch your erogenous
zones. A woman would probably not know that the head of
your penis is extremely sensitive and should be touched more,
and you probably don’t know just how much your partner
would love it if you touched her clitoris. Just make sure that
you ask your partner politely but affectionately (unless of
course your partner would like to be commanded!) and
remember to let your partner know that they are doing a good
job, even if it is by moaning a little louder or being more into
the sex itself.
Once the two of you have attained a suitable level of comfort,
you can take a box and turn it into your little treasure trove of
sexual plunder. In this box you can keep whatever you think
would turn you on and would help you make the sex more
interesting. Blindfolds, handcuffs, sex toys, whips,
pornography, absolutely anything that you feel would be good
for you and your partner during sex should go into this box.
This will help both of you become more honest about your
sexual preferences and will allow you to associate good sex
with this box. This association will accentuate the sex because
you will be immediately aroused upon seeing it.
Now you are more or less ready to start your own sexual
adventures. Lose yourself into each other and you will be fine.
Explore exciting and adventurous ways to fall in love and
explore each other’s minds and bodies. This is the last step to
Tantric lovemaking.
Remain intimate
Do not break eye contact for as long as you can maintain it
without your eyes or watering or starting to laugh. This will
heighten the intensity of your arousal because looking into a
partner’s eyes releases pleasure chemicals such as serotonin
and dopamine in your brain. Remind each other that you are
loved and wanted.
Take it slow
Taking your time is the essence of tantric sex. Try not to
climax for as long as possible, don’t climax until the orgasm is
practically tearing you up inside, then simply let it go and lay
back as the waves of pleasure crash over you!
Additionally, this will allow you to give your woman all the
time she needs to achieve her own climax. Just remember,
conserve your sexual energy for as long as possible by
postponing ejaculation, and keep your eyes locked with hers
for as long as possible.
Regulate your breathing
Try your best not to breathe too fast, for this might make you
achieve orgasm quicker than you want to. Try to synchronize
your breathing with that of your lover by inhaling when she
does and exhaling at the same time as well. You can also
switch by inhaling as she exhales or vice versa. This creates an
incredibly seesaw of energy that would take you to
unimaginable sexual heights!
Kegels are very basic exercises that do not require you to put
in any extraordinary effort. Simply clench your pubic muscles
around two dozen times before or after each meal. However,
remember not to go overboard with this exercise.
Take it slow
When you begin to have sex with your lover, remember to take
it slow at first. The slower the sex is, the sweeter the orgasm,
because the buildup will be a lot more intense.
Regulate your breathing, and when you feel the orgasm
coming on, try to calm yourself down by taking a deep breath
and then clench your pubic muscles.
Once you are close to orgasm and this time you actually want
to climax let it happen and then clench your pubic muscles
while it is happening. This will prevent you from ejaculating
but would give you the full pleasure of the orgasm that you are
experiencing.
Clitoral Stimulation
What most men are practically clueless about is the fact that
women are not all that turned on by penetration. The act is
erotic in and of itself and it provides some sexual stimulation,
but the clitoris provides the majority of sexual stimulation.
The G-spot
In tantra there is what is called a sacred spot within a woman’s
vagina. This spot is a couple of inches within the vaginal canal
on the top. This sacred spot is often called the g spot, and is
the key to giving your partner extremely explosive orgasms.
Place a finger into your partner’s vagina and attempt to feel for
the spot at the top of the vaginal canal. You will feel it as
being about half the size of a penny with a crumpled surface
that is almost like the ripples inside your own mouth.
Music
This is an essential part of setting the correct mood for the
massage. Note that in these situations, rough music such as
heavy metal won’t work. Choose something according to what
your goal is. Sometimes you might want to give a massage to
get them in the mood for sex and others you might want them
to relax and drift off to sleep. Choose accordingly. If you are
going for sex, choose something like intimate soul music. If
you are going for relaxation, choose soft blues or nature
sounds. Running water is especially soothing to help someone
drift off.
The Oil
This is the vital ingredient for your massage. Consider this
your turkey to your thanksgiving dinner. There are several
different oils you can use, such as avocado, jojoba and grape
seed oil. Experiment with a few and find what you like or what
suits your partner the best. These oils are all usually available
at health food stores, spa shops or skin care stores. You can
even buy pre-blended massage oils that contain two or more
oils. Make sure to buy any oil that helps your hands glide
easily without chafing your partner’s skin. Remember, comfort
is the most important part of the whole massage.
Try and buy organic oil in small quantities and then store it in
a cool and dry place.
Of course massages vary from type to type but one of the best
tantric massages is the full body massage because it helps a
person to relax under your touch and increases intimacy
between you both.
Shiatsu
This is one of the easiest and most commonly used massage
techniques in Japan. If you have received a massage with
someone rubbing the knots under your skin out using their
thumbs or elbows, you have had the shiatsu style massage
treatment.
Compression
Compression is another popular method for massage. In order
to perform a compression massage, you must apply pressure to
one area of your partners’ body. This will increase the flow of
blood to this area and remove tension and rigidity from the
muscle. This massage is much like a warm up for the more
intense styles of massage such as shiatsu. If you are extremely
tense, don’t go for shiatsu immediately because its intensity
might injure you. Instead, have your partner give you a
compression massage, it will boost blood flow and loosen up
your muscles for shiatsu.
Stroking
The name of this massage is very descriptive. Stroking
massages are very different from compression or shiatsu
massages in that applying concentrated pressure does not
perform them. Instead, this massage involves sliding your
hands across parts of her body such as her thighs or back. It is
a very stimulating form of massage and become extremely
erotic if you do it right. It is also minimal in its intensity and a
lot easier to do than compression or shiatsu massages.
Friction
This is a high level technique that can be applied to the more
bonier parts of your partners body such as her hands or feet. In
this technique, you do not need to use oils. Instead, you must
use your dry hands to generate heat via friction. The strokes
must be firm but no hard, as compression is not required. In
fact, compression would an impediment to the speed at which
your hand is travelling across her body. This type of massage
is in many ways a more advanced technique than stroking.
Kneading
This massage is amazing for reaching into deeper parts of her
muscles and is especially good for relieving tension from the
fleshy areas such as the buttocks. Be very gentle because you
do not want to harm her. Do not perform this massage on her
stomach because that will make her feel uncomfortable.
If you have ever baked bread before, you will realize that this
massage is similar to kneading bread. To knead the muscles,
take hold of the muscle and give it a slight dig with your
fingers whilst raising the tissue with your thumbs. Do not lift
too high because that will hurt. First, you will press your palm
into their muscles, and then you will squeeze their muscles
slightly and then give a gentle lift with your thumb. Try it
gently on your thigh and use the same gentle motions on her
skin. This massage is also good for her shoulders especially if
you sense a tension in them. Remember to give her a little
Shiatsu first, however, since directly kneading an already tense
shoulder or neck muscle can be quite painful.
These massages are excellent if you combine them. Mixing up
shiatsu, oil massage, compression, stroking and friction can be
a great way to keep things interesting. Remember, doing the
same thing over and over again will get boring for the both of
you and will stop being effective after a little while, so apply
different massage techniques to different parts of the body and
your lover will be in heaven by the time you are done.
There are several ways in which you can warm up, but
possibly the best way possible would be to give your partner a
massage and have your partner give you one as well. This will
loosen up your muscles, which is important because stiff
muscles can get in the way of a full body orgasm.
The massage that you can give in order to prepare your lover
for tantric sex has some very specific rules attached to it, along
with a technique that is designed to heighten sexual sensitivity
and make the body more receptive to sexual stimulation.
Additionally, this massage can be coupled with a technique
that can be used on a woman in order to make her achieve
orgasm. This can contribute greatly to the quality of tantric
sex, because receiving one orgasm makes one a little more
patient for the next one, allowing you to really tease her and
draw the sex out!
Oil
The first thing that you need before you can give your lover
this pre sex massage is oil. Oil is a great tool to use if you
want your massage to be more effective. It helps by loosening
the skin up and providing lubrication for your hands. If your
hands are able to slide across your lovers body more
effectively it will also help to make the massage more sensual
and help to lead up to the actual sex!
The best oil that you can use in a pre sex massage is grape
seed oil. This is because grape seed oil has the fewest number
of people that are allergic to it, and can actually be really great
for your skin. Hence, by giving your lover a grape seed oil
massage you are going to be helping her or him get softer skin
as well, which is an excellent added bonus.
If grape seed oil is not available, go for any other oil that has
been specifically manufactured for the purpose of massages.
The Technique
The first thing that you are going to need to do is obviously
spread the oil across your lover’s body. Make sure that the oil
is distributed evenly across the body, and keep it in mind that
too little oil will not provide adequate lubrication but too much
would just end up getting messy and annoying. Try to find the
happy medium!
While you are spreading the oil across your partner’s body,
you will find that the skin absorbs the oil very quickly. Hence,
you will have to frequently spread more oil across her if the
lubrication stops being adequate.
Once the oil has been spread across your partner’s body, the
massage can properly begin. Initially it would be a good idea
to start with basic compression of all of the major muscles.
The muscle you should really go for when applying wide and
non-specific compression is the thigh, because this area is
usually under the most strain throughout the day.
Try lightly slapping areas that you feel are already loose in
order to stimulate blood circulation in these areas. Remember
not to slap so hard that it hurts, unless your partner wants you
to of course!
Once you have completed this massage and loosened up the
major muscle groups, it is time to begin focused compression
with the tips of your fingers and your fists. There are specific
areas that you should be targeting during focused compression,
and these areas are specified in the next section.
Areas to Target
Breasts
The breasts are one of the most widely fetishized areas of the
entire human body, and also happen to be the source of a lot of
sexual stimulation for many people. They also tend to have
very concentrated points of tension which, when released, end
up making the person in question feel incredibly relaxed.
Generally, this little ball of tension can be found just below the
nipple, and your partner will probably cry out when you hit it
because of the intensity of the pain she will feel. However, do
not misinterpret this pain and stop massaging her. This pain is
actually a very enjoyable pain, with many people comparing it
to the feeling once gets while scratching an itch.
You can also apply intense pressure to this point. This is very
useful because it will release energy from the blockage in an
extremely intense manner, and this will end up opening your
partner up for intense sexual stimulation.
Butt
This is another area of the body that most people are very
aroused by. As it turns out, the butt is just as prone to
blockages in energy as breasts are, probably because of the
intense amount strain they go through when the people they
are attached to spend the vast majority of their day sitting in an
office. With the amount of sitting that we do, it really is no
wonder that the pathways of energy in our derrieres end up
getting backed up.
The important thing here is to feel your way around the area.
Blockages can occurs in several different parts of the butt, so
you will have to poke around a little to find out where exactly
the blockage has occurred. An odd little coincidence is that the
energy blockage is probably going to occur in the exact same
place on both cheeks, so if you find the spot on one cheek
simply start pressing the exact same spot on the other cheek as
well.
Apply the same circular motion with the tips of your fingers
that you used on your partner’s breast. These energy blockages
might require some more pressure however, so if your partner
is unable to feel anything when you are massaging him or her,
just trying using your thumb instead.
You might face difficulty finding the pressure point in this part
of the body, especially if your partner has been gifted with a
curvy backside. This is because the energy pathways are
buried underneath a lot of flesh. Breasts rarely ever pose such
a problem, even if the breasts in question are quite large.
Inner thighs
Finding the blockage in energy in this area of your body might
turn out to be a lot more difficult than finding it on other parts
of the body. This is why a perfunctory massage of the thighs is
necessary before you begin to probe for pressure points.
Lower back
This area of the body is very different from the three areas
discussed previously, and so will tackled in a manner that is
completely different to the way that the previous body parts
were tackled
Hence, for your feet you are going to have to apply deep
pressure using your thumb. The first area you should try is the
upper center of your foot, as this area commonly has a cluster
of energy blockages in it since so much strain is placed on it
throughout the day.
Once the massage is finished, have her lie on her back, relax
all of her muscles and then spread her legs. Once her legs are
spread, stimulate her vagina by rubbing it gently. You will
notice that she is a lot more receptive to your touch right now.
This is because her sexual energy is flowing a lot more freely
than it was before, and as a result her vagina is going to feel
everything a lot more strongly.
Once you have stimulated her clitoris using your fingers, you
must insert two fingers into her vagina. It is highly
recommended that you face your palm upwards and insert
your middle and ringer fingers in with your index and little
fingers facing downwards and your thumb facing outwards.
Once you are in, you will have to jerk your hand upwards.
Your fingers are going to be directly underneath your partner’s
g spot, a bundle of nerves that, when stimulated, can give your
partner extremely intense orgasms. Jerking your hand upwards
will press your inserted fingers against your partner’s g spot,
and you will immediately notice that there are waves of
intense pleasure flowing across her body.
You can ease her into the process by stroking her g spot with
your inserted fingers before you begin to jerk your hands
upwards. Whatever you do, make sure that when you do jerk
your hand upwards you do it with moderate force.
You may feel as though your partner might get injured if you
are too rough with her, but try not to worry about her vagina
too much. After all, the vagina is where babies come from,
which means that it is designed to be able to handle a bit of
rough handling.
Not being forceful enough would result in you not being able
to stimulate her g spot. However, if you apply enough force,
you are going to be able to make her orgasm within three
minutes, and before your eyes you are going to see the efficacy
of this technique as your partner practically loses control of
her limbs.
Once you give her the first orgasm, giving her another orgasm
is going to be very easy. All you will have to do is apply the
same technique but for a much shorter period of time. Try to
see how many times you make her orgasm before she can’t
take anymore, with this technique it’ll be easy!
Chapter 18 : Teachings of tantric sex
The answer is quite simple, we all breathe all the time and if
we stop breathing for too long it might result in death or
becoming unconscious. In this manner, it can be understood
that breath is related to our consciousness. Breath can be
thought of as energy; every breath we take fills our body with
a fresh burst of oxygen and takes away the carbon dioxide.
This oxygen is in turn supplied to all the cells in the body.
Breath and oxygen can be thought of as fundamental needs of
our body. Breathing is not a conscious but an unconscious
function. You might not pay attention to whether or not you
are breathing, but you never really stop breathing till the day
you die. Your life is dependent on something that you don’t
even do voluntarily.
Better orgasms
That’s right, orgasms during pregnancy aren’t just not
dangerous for you or your baby, they are actually far better
than orgasms that you would get while you were not pregnant.
There is a simple biological reason for this: better blood flow.
There is simply a lot more blood flow in that area while you
are pregnant, which means that the nerves that detect pleasure
during an orgasm are far more sensitive than they would be
otherwise, resulting in incredible orgasms.
The fact that tantric sex provides unimaginably good orgasms
without you even being pregnant should definitely make you
want to have sex while you are pregnant. Just imagine the
intensity of the orgasms you would have combining tantric sex
with pregnancy!
I hope I was able to shed some light on the basic need of the
hour to get couples engage in a more involved sexual
experience.
Today’s world is all about rushing through. Whether it is our
food, relationships, sex, friends, conversations etc., everything
has become fast. But in fact ‘fast’ is not always the right way
to deal with things. “Quickies” and “casual sex” just don’t cut
it anymore and it is important to find an ideal partner and
engage in meaningful, deep-rooted sexual experiences.
I hope the book serves as your one true tantric sex guide and
inspires you to give it a try. We also hope it ushers you
towards attaining Tantric Sex Moksha.
