The Tiger thread is a personal true story that weaves between the unconscious world of dreams, creativity and feelings into the actual manifested physical reality. It’s a story that unfolds over many years with the central thread being the symbol of the tiger that elicits several profound synchronicities of which I contemplate their meaning with the aid of ancient myths and modern psychology

The journey can be appreciated through a tantric lens. although there is much prejudice in the west against tantric practice as there is a belief that it is just about sex. This is because many modern practitioners especially in the west have a shallow understanding and only focus on a sexual aspect.

The Sanskrit word ‘Tantra’ derives from the verbal root tan, meaning ‘to weave’. It is the weaving together of opposites. In this story, the thread is the tiger and as it weaves on its journey, we contemplate many opposites.
Such as    
                        Playfulness and seriousness
   Chaos and calm
   Innocence and experience
   Attraction and repulsion
   Light and dark

Tantra challenges distinctions between opposites by believing that everything is sacred, including what society views as profane and impure.

At the heart of Tantra is the embrace of paradox. Human life is a great weaving of matter and spirit, immanence and transcendence, dark and light, worldly fulfilment and spiritual liberation.

Tyger Tyger, burning bright, 
In the forests of the night; 
What immortal hand or eye, 
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
