What is Tantra?


Tantra seeks to unfold the dormant powers resting within the mind and the brain. The power of human consciousness which we experience on a daily basis is a mere fraction of the total power resting within the human potential. Only through illumination and awakening can the potential of human consciousness be released and the true potency and practice of tantra be unveiled. Through concentration and meditation, tantra fuses and develops electromagnetic circuits within the brain begin to form new connections that gradually unfold the joys and bliss of spiritual enlightenment. The secret of tantra is formed by its ability to create new pathways in the brain and connect new circuits within the mind that drive the spiritual practitioner towards new perceptual awareness as well as an awakening into the higher forms and orders of the universe.

Tantra is not merely a practice but a spiritual science which was developed over centuries and used as a tool to lead one towards self-realization. Tantric yogis dissected every particle and parcel of human life from the physical experiences of the world to the subtle energies of the human mind and spirit. Just as a scientist reduces chemical compounds to in order to find the base chemicals that form the final compound, so too did the scientists of tantra dissect every layer that made up the human mind to find the essence of the total system.
