Michael Woodhead- TCM Reviews

If the authors' previous book The Essence Of Tantric Sexuality can be considered theory, then this new book can be the practical workbook.

Replete with fifty-two exercises, dozens of examples, explanations, and experiences, there's a cornucopia of material with which Tantric practitioners or novices can use in order to enhance and enrich their sexual life, focusing on "consciousness, an experimental attitude, and, above all, pleasure".

The authors suggests approaching the material slowly but steadily, studying and experimental with one chapter per week. All of the exercises can be explored by persons of any sexual orientation or gender identity.

The book begins with an examination of Tantra itself, then moves on to sexuality, both physical and spiritual, and how the two can be integrated.

This study is followed by chapters that examine pleasure and desire, with exercises that focus on helping readers to discover various aspects of their own sexuality, what turns them on and off; what forms of foreplays and love-making they enjoy; what their sexual history was like; what does or doesn't happen when they yield to sexual desires; and how they breathe during orgasm, all to help them understand more about their sexual selves.

"From the Tantric perspective, everything that exists is imbued with energy, or Shakti". So follows an explanation of sexual energy: why it happens, how to recognize it, and how to create and manage it.

Following these are informative and enlightening chapters on such things as meditation, reverence, bliss, imagination and other concepts vital to a working knowledge of Tantric sex.

Together with their previous books, Tantra for Erotic Empowerment provides a dynamic and consciousness-expanding awareness of our sacred sexuality.

Fantastic!

In a culture where sex and sexuality is so often shunned and scandalized, it's refreshing to see a book focused on this sacred aspect of our human nature. Being one of our greatest gifts as humans, sex can empower and spiritually connect us. With wisdom and maturity, the authors present a concise guide to the magickal, powerful force that dwells within us--one that we often fear or take for granted. Contrary to popular misunderstanding, the authors clarify that the practices and beliefs of Tantra are not solely focused on sex. Going well beyond the realm of sexual energy, Tantra for Erotic Empowerment covers significant elements of sensual mysticism, including proper techniques for consciousness expansion, meditation, gender exploration, cultivating balance, and how to evolve in one's loving relationship with another, others, or oneself. Gorgeously written and practical, this book is a must for anyone seeking to strengthen their connection with the Divine and incorporate expanded bliss into their spiritual path.

Good follow up to first book

This book continues the work from the first volume with more snippets of info from classical tantric texts made accessable for the western reader. The reader is then free to do more detailed reading/study of the classical texts if they wish on their own.

The authors do make an effort to present their ideas in a way that is "gender inclusive" so if you are gay, straight, queer, of have a different relationship style, you will find that this info is helpful too.

I like the fact that the authors are willing to share more of their own personal opinions of their work, (and the work of other "tantrikas")in an open and honest matter.

Make no mistake if you are looking for a fluffy new-agey book, you'd better look elsewhere. If you are ready to do work for your own spiritual growth and enlightenment, not to mention cultivating a new sexy intimate relationship with yourself and the divine spark that resides within you, this is the book for you

A profond exposition of Tantra

This book does much in the way of unveiling and educating the masses into an understanding of what Tantra is. Not an easy thing to do as Tantra is essentially about creating a profound relationship with ourselves, something which the authors, if we let them, allow us to do with aplomb.

The chapters of the book are sequentially designed to bring us closer into gaining a deeper level of understanding of our own consciousness and sexuality. We are encouraged to write a journal as we work through the book, answering questions designed to lead us further into this understanding.

The meditations in the book are not wishy washy having their roots in genuine Indian metaphysical lineages; we find the likes of Shavasana and Yoga (Ananda) Nidra, rubbng shoulders with healthy techniques of worshipping ourselves and our partners.

What I particularily liked was the healthy attitude towards sex and spirituality that runs throughout. A book like this could hopefully go a long way in introducing a sane view of sex.

This book is the real deal. The dedication the authors have to tantra, in its most ancient and esoteric forms, is made clear to readers in this book. The exercises bring tantra down to earth for couples and singles to explore the basics as well as the more advanced concepts of tantra.
