ASPECTS OF TANTRIC SEX, an Introducton.

Health that mocks the doctor’s rules,
Knowledge never learned of schools.
John Greenleaf Whittier, The barefoot boy, Stanza 2

According to Tantric texts, there are eight aspects to the act of sexual intercourse.

1. Smarnanam. Allowing thoughts of sex to develop in the brain.
2. Kirtanam. Imaging sexual acts possible in the circumstances.
3. Keli. Finding the company of the possible sex partner.
4. Prekshenam. Flirting, getting the attention and energy joined with the potential sex partner (exhibitionism).
5. Guhya-bhashanam. Intimate conversation with the sex partner such that they understand and are willing partners in the sex act. This stage may be non-vocal and involve mutual touching, expressing agreement equally well.
6. Samkalpa. First stage of touching creating the arousal needed for the functioning of higher power liberation. Although touching may have already occured, this stage is the deliberate and open touching following agreement.
7. Adhyavasayam. Plateau stage of foreplay in which each partner now begins to desire orgasm through full wet sexual contact.
8. Kriyanishpatti. Full wet sexual contact leading toward orgasm without restraint of sexual activity.

Entering into any of these aspects of sexual intercourse is considered as having entered into some portion of sexual intercourse itself. This is not just according to Vedic Tantra but also according to most religions and it is noted in the Bible that even stage one (thinking of sex) is a sin (see Matthew 5:28). Well, Tantra does not consider sex a sin so those of you who are reading this have just been absolved of any sin for thinking “unclean” thoughts.

What a strange thing (unclean) to call any creation of God which is so integral to our human functioning. Through this “unclean,” “dirty,” “filthy,” and so on method are our beautiful children and the Children of God conceived.

Certainly sex can be used for harm. The modern churches and governments do so at many levels today and have done so for millenium. Even ordinary people have been caught up in the use of sex for harm and have so applied and used themselves and others. For each rose there are many thorns, for each beauty there is an opposite. Just as it is true that sex can be dirty, filthy, degrading, etc., so is sex beautiful, enlightening, cleansing, envigorating, etc., and the awareness that this can be should bring hope to even those who have never experienced the beautiful side of their (and other’s) sexual nature. In fact, the very thought that this could be changed from the teachings of church and state brings such joy and glory into my heart it is difficult for me to be still when all about exists the potential for happiness, energy, enlightenment, and so much more. I cannot understand how the world would move toward ugly and not beauty, accept lie and not truth, work in pain and not health, live in misery and not joy. What a strange place we are in.

The strength of the potential for health, energy, happiness, enlightenment, etc., lies in the quality and strength of the polarity involved in the sexual acts. So far as the quality of polarity, Tantric Scriptures specifically exclude the voluptuary, the drunkard, the lewd person, the glutton, the lecher, those who have not risen above shame, blame, guilt, anger, and other damaging impurities. Tantra specifically teaches purity as the major force for good and as the specific quality required for entering into the many aspects of the sexual activity God has bestowed on our human physical and spiritual bodies. Do not confuse the definition of purity with the church and government definition of purity. These forces for evil describe sexual purity as abstaining from all sex, including the very thinking of sex (something no one is capable of doing), giving them the opportunity of calling all people “evil,” “born in sin,” and many other degrading descriptions. This allows these evil machines to control the lives of the humans subject to the machinations of their greed and need for power.

Tantra describes purity as joining with the enlightened and healthy aspects of any method of attainment and keeping those illuminated principles at all times. Thus, a Latter Day Saint is pure as long as they stay within the teachings of the Mormon Church but, as far as the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is concerned has just lost their purity by reading this text. Tantra does not teach denial as the word is used today. Tantra teaches the knowledge of impurity and the knowledge of purity. Tantra teaches us to hold the world and our actions by the handle of purity. Thus, the sex act is encouraged to be engaged in with as much polarity (sexual energy or sexual turn-on) as is possible and to do this with the goal of changing or maintaining the chemistry of the body and the mind in or to a state of grace in which the body produces hormones, peptides, t-cells, immune-helping cells, and other healing biological aspects which assist in purifying the harmful chemistry and energy forced on us by the world around us.

Tantra also encourages a participant in sexual activity to use that energy produced to focus on higher spiritual values and enlightenment. In this is purity. Sex only degrades the degraded, only harms the harmful, is only evil to the evil, etc., and is a joy to the joyful, healthful to the healthy, illuminating to those who seek illumination. As in everything else, as ye seek, so shall ye find.

If a seeker has an attitude of hope and affirmation, benefitial aspects of all things are shown forth and the “handles” of the world around us may be held from the affirmitive rather than the negative. Impurity begins when we hold forth from the negative and rejecting; purity begins when the seeker reaches out from hope and an affirmative attitude.

The ability to engage in the sex act has, in the past, been acknowledged as a sign of maturity. As is said in the Bible, unless you are born again by the blood and the water, you cannot enter the kingdom of heaven. A little harsh but the message is there; unless the person attains maturity (is changed from an andrygenous child to the sexual-appearing adult through hormones ie., blood and water), they will not be able to create the energy, focus, or understanding required to attain to the higher powers within the human brain and body such that they may enter into the “kingdom” already available to each of us. Thankfully the teachings of Tantra are a little more kindly than the teachings of the harsh desert tribes surrounded by even more harsh desert tribes and the child is returned to the spirit in health and love from whence the child came even if the child dies before reaching maturity. This is true even if the child never heard of the teachings of those desert tribes and their strict and angry gods.

From a pure heart comes pure love. This reads backwards also. From pure love comes a pure heart. If we could learn to have a pure heart we could practice pure love. If we strive to practice pure love, we are learning to have a pure heart. This goes for all aspects of our lives. If we practise sexuality with the goal of creating illumination, health, and higher powers, we will produce those things. If we participate in sexuality with a bad attitude, guess what will be produced. Of course, we will then produce a bad attitude, reinforcing the one we already have brought into the session. Thus grows impurity. From a pure attitude grows purity. Sexual rituals at the beginning level are not pure at all and are pretty much just sex with a changing attitude, beginning the movement toward purity. This is what is needed to attainment of our highest goals. We do not walk out the door in the morning determined to be a Physicist with a Ph.d or a Medical Doctor and apply for a job accordingly. We must take all those little (and big) steps required for the years of training and practice needed to become what we aspire to. The same holds for purity. We must train and practice in order to attain our goal.

Just as the beginning Medical Doctor does not take classes with only the “pure” future Medical Doctors, so do we in learning purity begin our classes with those who have not yet learned purity and with many who are not interested in learning purity. The future Medical Doctor will be required to take classes with others who have no intention of becoming a Medical Doctor and this will not take away from their ability to learn the required steps leading to the attainment of Medical Doctor. Purity and the potential for purity likewise comes from our focus and within us, not from outside or from someone else.

The Buddha realized that it is “not the results of human thinking, the ideas, beliefs, and formulas or the conceptual knowledge that matters, but rather the way, the method that leads to the results, the spiritual attitude behind them.” Here we see the definition of purity which the beginning Tantra student will do well to keep in mind. The spiritual attitude of reaching for attainment and growth brings purity. Like a seed, this spark of purity will grow to a giant oak (or a raging flame since the metaphor is mixed) akin to the mustard seed of faith spoken of so often in the Bible. With that small mustard seed of faith, containing a universe of purity, the student gradually overcomes the world of impure thoughts and teachings they bring to the study of Tantra.

At this point in the world, all who begin the study of Tantra will be adults with the poisons of worldly teaching coursing through their every thought. One day, perhaps, those poisons will not be taught to children who grow up in Tantric families and Tantric communities. Such adults, having grown up in a healthy environment will not understand the difficulties we have with purity and the search for attainment of our own higher powers.
