Influence of Tantra
on Ayurveda and Kamasutra |
|
 |
|
Tantra creates rhythm through rituals. It is the highest way
to reach balance and harmony. The practice to connect both
inner (mental) and outer (physical), forms the basis of
Tantra. It works the symbolic representation of the cosmos
within the body, breath, speech, mind and action. We become
aware of the points of contact between the inner and outer
worlds.
The awareness, knowledge and intention enable a conscious
relationship we develop with the universe, our inner soul
and other people and beings. Even the nature, animals,
flowers, food, aromas... Everything reacts in connection
with this energy. Tantra followers create love and
self-unfoldment and it brings personal and planetary
happiness and health. |

Ayurveda and Kamasutra have a deep connection in rituals and
application for health of body, mind and soul. Many studies
of ancient period mention the different subjects and their
utility and function especially in the sexual enjoyment.
The Human body is made of four bodies: physical, subtle (or
energy), emotional, and mental bodies. We can develop
relationship between our human forms and these bodies, and
as much as we know our bodies and worship different parts,
the result will be spiritual connection, health and pleasure.
Tantra is much more than what many people think, as it is
not just sexual pleasure, but spiritual living. This
knowledge has been incorporated in works like Bhavaprakasa
of Ayurveda and others of Kamasutra. The worship of female
and male organs Yoni and Linga teaches us how to get balance
and to know our bodies.
When we understand the deep spiritual energy of Tantra, our
lives become full of love and peace, pleasure and happiness.
