These Little Tantric Angels and Demons 
Namaste from your favorite Tantra dakini, mentor and friend, NAYKA…. "Saint Anthony once wrote about having
gone into the desert on silent retreat and being assaulted by all manner of visions---devils and angels, both. He said, in his solitude, he sometimes encountered
devils who looked like angels, and other times he fought angels who looked like devils. When asked how he could tell the difference, the saint said that you can only
tell which is which by the way you feel after the creature has left your company. If you are appalled, he said, then it was a devil who had visited you. If you feel lightened, it
was an angel." ---Eat. Love. Pray. Elizabeth Gilbert. In my absence of writing these past few weeks, I fear that I share similar experiences as
described above to which NAYKA has found herself in deep contemplation and reflection to decide ultimately day by day to which type she has been hanging out with in her experiences. I
have become sensitive to noise these past few months and find myself deeply unnerved by too much of it as it distracts me away from my daily mediations, a time I cherish greatly for my
reflection and personal insight. In light of the Elliot Spitzer scandal here in New York, I found various neighborhood folks run into me at the local market café asking me what I, in light of
the work I do, think of his behavior and what provoked him to risk it all for sex. I would put a whisper motion in front of my face this waving to them to inch in closer as I whispered
something in their ear: "Shhh. It isn't about the sex. It's about the blurred visions of daily life and deciding between who are the real angels and demons are that leave such an impact on
who we really are and the choices we ultimately make." I sat night after night watching expert after expert give their own "assessment" as to what
reason someone like Spitzer would have gone to such lengths to see someone at the Mayflower Hotel. The female expert on CNN noted that in her professional opinion, an addiction to
escapism resembles and re-enters into one's habits no different than a daily smoker, drinker or compulsive eater. It was about impulse control and addictions, thus leaving the bulk of the
responsibility to Spitzer directly. The male expert though offered a more compassionate viewpoint: he argued that with mounting pressures today for men to balance the throes of
work, women and sexual desire, and with a decreasing amount of individual, stable attention from a loving partner, one would most certainly mask sex as a quick and effortless release that
gives the receiver a temporary impression of emancipation from daily life. Indeed the Tantric texts would argue something similar in stating that we are born from orgasm and we are
constantly striving to return to orgasm. (Orgasm here meaning the complete liberation of ego, self, control, fears and doubts. To once again re-join with unadulterated love, ecstasy and bliss
than perhaps only the body in orgasm can ever get close enough to the true realization of God's love.) Is it any wonder then that the kind of healing one may consistently seek out is the
physical manifestation of that love, namely an orgasm?  There are many mysteries about orgasm and
especially the different types of orgasms represented in the Tantric tradition. Many people come to see me because they fear they do not last long enough sexually, cannot
manage to have one, do not know how to make it happen more than once, or even want to know about the 24 hour orgasm. (A student organization from SUNY Albany asked me to give a lecture this
Wednesday, APRIL 9th at 8 pm at Lecture Hall 18, and they decided to post a flyer entitled, "Tantra: The 24 Hour Orgasm." I don't have the heart to tell them that the true
version of the 24 hour orgasm is a lot less salacious in context than their thinking permits: for only those who live the constant mantra of constant connection,
communication, devotion, discipline and practice will ever get to experience one. And it can even occur while you're being asked to take out the garbage. Meaning that if its
unadulterated pleasure, ecstasy, bliss and God-like vibrations you're hoping to experience from one, it's better to switch your thinking button to OPEN 24 HOURS so that love
has the ability to "stop by and surprise you."
Generally before anyone can open their body up to such enlightening forms of bliss, one must
first give careful concentration to the time and commitment involved in preparing your body(and your life) for such intense sensations and emotions. You cannot "rush off" ecstasy,
scheduling into your Palm Pilot between running New York State and tucking the children into bed, post-gym workout. Which is why I believe strongly that the reason why the physical body is
not accustomed to this brand of natural sexuality is that we have generations of imprints left from both society and religion's ownership of our bodies through our daily schedule and
religious responsibilities. No one need be told today the effects of a capitalistic society in terms of scheduling conflicts for "love play" take a back seat to work productivity and
consumerism. Men often state that they wish their wives gave them sex more often. I tell them that either they or their woman need to work less. For in the Tantric search for balance in
opposites, one cannot be whole if both are missing halves of the same part. For then I get the reply, "Why that sounds very traditionalist of you for a Tantric teacher!" To which I reply, "I
am the kind of naturalist from the beginning of time." Meaning that the whole point why GOD decided to create another gender was that neither was complete without the other and both
require the opposite's "Angels and Demons" if either were going to experience true bliss and ecstasy. In fact, in Tantra, you must embrace the sacredness of union to the highest level,
accepting even the little demons that trail your beloved's soul from time to time. For who are we as observers to determine if another's perceived demons are not really angels in disguise?
Recently I remembered about another interpretation of the Tantric sacred union. Most people focus only on the sexual union between couples. Our physical sexual relations have a deeper
purpose than just for personal pleasure and procreation. The kind of spiritual Tantric partnership to which unadulterated erotic bliss can be experiences can ONLY come from a type
of "grinding down of the ego" and complete devotion to the other half's spiritual development. C.G. Jung once stated, "Love….is the dynamism that most infallibly brings the unconscious to
light." The goal through a Tantric relationship is to have our partner help us finish our homework healing from our childhoods. When our partner dedicates themselves to healing our
weaker halves through pushing our buttons, challenging our shortcomings and loving us unconditionally (as GOD would in Tantric conditions) it is only through that process that we free
up creative energy to be loved completely and to then love back wholeheartedly in return. Most people release themselves from their relationships the minute it doesn't reinforce their own
ego or goals. By preventing themselves to encounter both the angels and demons of their journey, they fail to receive the true reward of love fulfilled, in the same nature and method as
God loves each of us. For as TRUE Tantra teaches, our enlightenment in the body can only occur by the openness of the heart. Close your heart to your beloved and you will surely never
experience a fulfilling orgasm ever again. This brings me back to an important aspect of how to tell where you are in your journey: you
need only look at your physical body. For as I believe and teach daily, the body leaves a detailed
map of all of the places in love you ever visited, where you are stopping by today and how to get to ecstatic bliss in the future. It all begins right inside of you. You may need to free up
some time though to be able to even notice it. Doctors and scientists today are giving research and recognition to the emotional causes behind disease. (Some helpful links on the connection
can be read here: http://www.calvindale.com/disease.html or http://www.yogagrandjunction.com/EmotionalCauseOfDiseases.html
) In terms of sexuality or sexual-related issues, your body does not differ in trying to reveal to you the emotional causes
in your life that are contributing to an imbalance in the first place. With a caring and devoted
partner who is dedicated to a daily practice of love and connection, they will remind you of the ways to which you must be present and improve to reach back to spiritual and sexual union
again. You may not "like" what you are hearing, but it is the threshold to the process of which sexual enlightenment(including boundless orgasms) can be experienced. If you cut that part of
the process short, you will certainly turn your balancing partner away, and forever remain rooted in your ego-based notion of sexuality and love, thus stopping for "quick fixes" about as
often as you stop to re-fill your gas tank. This is why Tantra yoga is sometimes referred to as "yoga of relationship" or "yoga of transformation." Within our bodies and that of our partner's
lies the blueprint to which we need as couples to reach Tantric ecstasy and the secrets to which
the divine Universe loves each of us. Tantrics refer to their bodies as a "spiritual laboratory" in which all of the Tantric devotions, exercises, Kama Sutra positions, chants, mantras, and
exercises reveal another path towards healing the body and releasing us back into our own inner love and ecstasy. Once we raise up our own energy, we can then transform that higher
energy to our partner's body and reach a state of "non-separation" It is here that we are born from (orgasm) and to that same place we strive to return to daily to understand the true cycle
of life and love. There are requirements that are recommended to each person in terms of finding a true
Tantric partner. Without a long term commitment, a strong foundation to sexual enlightenment will not be achieved because the various levels of "shattering the devils" could take much
longer than a quick night of passion. The qualities one should look for include: 1) Emotional maturity 2) Sexual chemistry 3) Sharing a similar spiritual philosophy 4) A willingness to accept
and take on the dark, shadow sides of each other's souls 5) An available time slot dedicated to
just you, and you only daily. If you want to be good at anything in life, you MUST make the time to practice daily, and to exercise discipline as a measure of growth. If a person is not
disciplined with even their own body, how can they be disciplined when it comes to yours? And remember: the body will inevitably store every single message or experience for years to come.
You best learn to protect and cultivate your sexual energy for those responsible enough and capable enough to know what to do with it!

An exploration into Tantra
IF YOU WANT…. * to understand how to pleasure the opposite sex…
* to merge your sexual self with your spiritual self…
* to experience extended orgasms...
* to actualize emotional wholeness…
* to master ejaculation control
* to learn "Sacred Spot Massage" for sexual healing & awakening…

* to explore the art of "White Tantra" & Tantric meditation...
* to increase sexual attraction through polarization techniques... Je Tsongkhapa explained that an authentic Secret Mantra practice must possess four
attributes, known as the `four complete purities'. These are: complete purity of place, complete purity of body, complete purity of enjoyments, and complete purity of deeds. The
practice of these four complete purities was not revealed in the Sutra teachings, but is to be found only in Secret Mantra. Secret Mantra is distinguished from Sutra by the practice of
bringing the future result into the present path. For example, even though we have not yet attained enlightenment, when we practice Secret Mantra we try to prevent ordinary
appearances and ordinary conceptions of our environment and instead visualize our surroundings as the Mandela of a Deity. In the same way, we prevent ordinary appearance of
our body, our enjoyments, and our deeds, and, in their place, generate ourselves as a Deity, visualize our enjoyments as those of a Buddha, and practice performing enlightened deeds. By
doing such practices, we can attain the resultant state of Buddha hood very rapidly. These four practices are essential for both the generation stage and completion stage of Secret Mantra.
