I was writing about owning one’s senses so that they work how you want. Then you are in charge. This is also a principle in yoga and the same theory also exists in Tantra. I do not really understand how and why people relate here Tantra only with sex and I also don’t understand why people need to sell sex in the name of Tantra. Tantra is in everything natural and of course, sex is a part of that.
There is nothing wrong with sex. If you want to work with sex and sexual issues, it is great, why not? If you say that you are working with sex, I will appreciate it. But then say it honestly and directly. If you do a sex workshop, fine. But why do you call it a Tantra workshop? Then you are hiding sex. Why are you hiding it? Because you don’t want to say it, you feel it is not good. And with this sex is again a topic which needs to be hidden and which is taboo, which is not natural and cannot be said openly. So you go directly against what it is saying in tantra: that sex is just natural.
And maybe many people need this workshop, but then why do you need to call it Tantra? It is again like this: people see what they want to see. So if you want to see sex in Tantra, you will find sex in Tantra and see it in this way. I just really don’t understand why sex has become such a big issue.

Maybe this is a elementary problem with sexuality. Sure, it is our nature, it is a part of the human evolution and it belongs to mankind. Unfortunately many people can't accept this nature when they have to talk about it. Then everybody pretends that there is no form of sex in his life. But why? To feel better? Or even pure? Is this the reason why Tantra is that popular?

Great idea, Swami Ji! I think people need to attend sex workshops, plain and simple. There is a huge curiosity and desire to know more about sex in the world-- mostly because it is so taboo. And you have seen the evidence-- it is one of the most highly viewed topics on your blog! It shouldn't be wrong or scandalous to talk about and teach about sex. I think workshops about it would help people feel more comfortable and natural about sex instead of hiding it and feeling guilty.

Sex to me is just something that eksiserer between 2 people who love each other. Eat out, enjoy home .... but of course it can also be famine in this area :-)

It is stupid to try and make others believe what you believe. Never try to change anybody’s belief.
SourceThere would be no development if nobody ever judged. You would always accept everything as it is. We need to judge.
SourceIt is wrong if a guru is not only a person to learn from but someone to worship. When people put pictures of the guru onto their altars and pray for them, when followers wash the feet of the guru and then drink the water, when gurus have their statues made and sell them and when scriptures tell people that they can only be liberated if they have a guru.
SourceBad luck or good luck are simply a manipulation of your mind, a psychological effect for those who believe in it.
SourceReligions tell women that they have to cover their heads and even faces with a veil or a burqa because men could get aroused by seeing their faces and imagining a vagina.
SourceVideo games taught children that violence and rioting is fun! They learned how it should look like when you break into a store and when they see that it works, they get greedy and steal mobile phones, game consoles, electronics and more. I think violent video games have encouraged teenagers to see this all as fun!
SourceThere is no plan and nobody knows what will happen tomorrow. We can take our decisions and have to take our responsibility for the consequences. Nobody knows before what will happen if you go one way or the other.
SourceThere are some things that are stable through all changes of life and your love is one of them.
SourceLove never really finishes but respect can finish easily. Don’t let this happen!
SourceYou say something else than you think and feel. And you do something completely different. You don’t do what you think and you don’t think what you say. You don’t say what you do and you don’t do what you say. These three things are separate from each other although they should be same: our inside, our thoughts and feelings, our talk and our actions.
SourceReligion was cruel in the past and is still at present!
SourceIf you are not happy, how can you make someone else happy? You need to have what you want to give. If you want to give love, you must have love.
SourceYou have to accept your anger. It is a natural feeling, created by god. It is a negative feeling, yes, but you are not bad if you feel angry. It is there and you need to live it!
SourceDon't hide the changes of your life! Your past is a part of you!
SourceDon't remind your children of how much you did for raising them.
SourcePeople say scriptures cannot be changed. Okay, but then why do you need to follow them?
SourceReligion has created social structure - and now we have the ‘untouchable’ caste!
SourceEveryone who really loves you wants you to be happy and strong and stable in your happiness. It is difficult to have stable happiness if you cannot have a stable opinion because all the time you actually worry in which direction you have to change your opinion now!
SourceWe all have to be like children. We need to find our inner child which is innocent and has the freedom to express.
SourceSoul, energy, love, essence, prana and god are synonyms for me.
