What is Tantra? Neo or Nava Tantra?

I was courious about Tantra since I started to be interested in Yoga which was around the year 2012 – 2013 🧘‍♂️

So basically the same years when I started to travel more regularly! 🌍

The thing is that most people actually misinterpret Tantra with different things so I would like to try to clear it out! 🙃

Tantra is an ancient Indian tradition of ritual practices. It arose no later than the 5th century and it had a strong influence on both Hinduism and Buddhism.

Nava tantra (or Neo Tantra) is the modern, western variation of tantra often associated with new religious movements. This includes both New Age and modern Western interpretations of traditional Hindu and Buddhist tantra. Some of its proponents refer to ancient and traditional texts and principles, and many others use tantra as a catch-all phrase for “sacred sexuality”, and may incorporate unorthodox practices.

(Neo) Tantra massage or therapy is a type of massage that uses sexual energy to achieve a higher state of consciousness. Skilled tantra massage therapists, or lovers who study the art, use specific sensual touches such as lightly running fingertips along the entire body to awaken a dormant energy field within the body.

I was obviosuly so curious about this this experience that I wanted to try it out and I was lucky enough that I became friends with one person who is nutritionist but also doing tantra massages and so it wasn’t a question of money or investment for me, it was rather the question of going out of comfort zone and try to experience something new!

Do you want to know more about this experience? I was waking about doing one video vlog on Youtube dedicated just for this. Let me know and maybe I will try to create one vlog to Tantra and Neo Tantra! 🙃
