Explore the Path of Tantra Yoga: Understanding Its Essence and Practices

Unlike the previous Vedic Yoga tradition which meditated away from the body, tantra incorporates it and celebrates it as a living temple. The energy of the body, sexuality included, is a divine tool for spiritual growth and transformation. Tantra dissolves the division between the spiritual and the mundane. Its practitioners aspire to transcendence in immanence and make everything that they do sacred.

Sadhguru explains that the word ‘tantra’ literally means “technology.” But unfortunately, in western societies, tantra is often presented as uninhibited sex. And that’s because of how the practice has been packaged and sold. Sadhguru says that in the Tantric system, the relationship between a guru and a shishya can definitely be orgasmic, but not sexual.

Tantra yoga is a great way to reduce stress and anxiety, increase flexibility and balance, and build strength. It is also a powerful tool to help overcome depression and other emotional imbalances, as well as sexual dysfunction or disconnection. In addition to these psychological benefits, tantric practices also stimulate the flow of prana and enliven the experience of our oneness with the universe.
