Tantric adepts have harnessed this force as a means of attaining the summits of the mystical life. The energies fueled by passion are used to nourish the inner flame that burns away the egotistical perception of the mind. This book explores the subtle techniques of Tantra that enable the seeker to attain mastery of the breath, thought, and the natural processes of the body. It reveals secret practices intended for this purpose including the ritual sexual observances known as Maithuna. Orthodox religion proclaims it to be heretical and demonic.
Philosophers consider it to be superstitious and uncritical.
Scientists object to it as being presumably unverifiable. All these objections, however, are self-serving. This is not to say that such objections should be disregarded, but the mental attitudes from which they emanate ought to be evaluated within the context of the larger debate to which they contribute. The book takes you through a series of physical and mental exercises designed to prepare the student for magical advancement with the focus being on sex magick. This gem of a book has information for solo, hetero, and homosexual forms of tantra and sex magick.
