Tantric Goddesses

I constantly try to learn more - from people and books, web sites, YouTube, etc. The most important source of my knowledge has been my Divine Love Goddess, whose realization and awakening of her sexuality was accompanied by my practicing what I had learned. It has been a wonderful journey so far. She is open. She knows that she has to fight her cultural and religious upbringing to bring to the front the things she knew as a woman.

It may sound naive, but I never thought that I would find a woman who had a Shakti nature. But all women have a Shakti nature. Our "modern" society and the efforts of men over milenia has buried all this to a very deep level. It takes a woman who is brave and open to awaken the serpent within. It also takes a man who has taken the time to study and has broken down his testosterone-driven ego to allow a woman to bring it out.

Some women have found out through self-discovery and believe that no man can ever create the intimacy required. Others seek other women, who understand the subtleties of Shakti nature.

The Internet is populated with many women, claiming to be "Tantra Goddesses", ready to show men, or couples, the Secrets of Tantra. Some are well meaning, but I am reminded of what the Buddhist Master Lhi Chi said "If you meet the Buddha on the road, kill him" . So are solicitations on the Internet (through many Facebook pages) just thinly-veiled prostitutes?

I would say that to have any success with Tantra, love has to be involved. You have to love yourself and love the woman, her body, mind, spirit and womb. Can this be done in a "session". If the Goddess is not offering sex, but her wisdom, then it is perfectly acceptable. But beware - because there seems to be a thin line between spiritual sexuality and promiscuous sex and for men, the latter can be a temptation, a short cut to carnal pleasure. That is not what it is about.


I am sure that many of the women (and men) offering their services are doing a good and worthy job, but it must be difficult to distance oneself from the "client", at the same time imparting deep, intimate knowledge.


In the US, it seems that the society is big and spacious enough to accept that tantra teachers can exist. I am sorry to say that in Europe, it is not so: there are still too many taboos, and an attitude that a sexually-aware woman is a "witch". An enlightened man over the age of 45 is a "dirty old man".


So how does the message get across? With difficulty. But one thing is for sure. The future of humanity requires a turnaround where men learn to worship women. Every man and every woman has the divinity within. Women must listen to there instincts and men must be open to learn. Believe me, it is worth it.
