 Tantric Bodywork Western society has usurped the original meaning of tantra and has replaced it with a hedonistic entertainment. Tantra is supposed to be a method of freeing oneself from ego and desire, not prolonging sexual intercourse. From my (Karl) initial studies, tantra theorizes that one should exist in the present moment. Allowing one's ego to fuel desire ("I want lots of sex.") leads to living outside the present and, therefore, causes energy imbalances resulting in illness. To achieve this state of presentness, tantric exercises for beginners include sexual techniques because sex is the only activity performed by humans that requires all five senses. Tantra is training of the senses rather than sensual training. In fact, complete tantric sessions, which can take several hours, include food, incense, music, and color as well as touch. Tantra attempts to free the mind of ego to allow true desire, also referred to as intent, be felt in one's life. Consider a tantric bodywork session as intimate reflexology. Nudity and genital contact are involved, but the purpose is not to "have sex". The purpose is to get closer to a state of being at one with the present, thus alleviating stress caused by ego. Part of the process involves charging charkas, particularly the root chakra, to open energy passages to the entire body. An outline of a typical session is setting up sacred space, establishing trust, stretching to facilitate energy flow, light-contact reflexology of the entire body, and blessing the charkas. This type of session could take several hours and cost over $200. More advanced sessions could include oral stimulation and/or intercourse as deemed necessary by the problems being addressed and, of course, will be more expensive. To schedule a tantric bodywork session, contact Karl or call him at 719-482-6803. (Sorry, but that phone number is temporarily out of service. Contact him at 877-424-1963 instead.) You will need to travel to the north side of Colorado Springs, CO, to attend your session. A nonrefundable $25 booking fee will be charged upon making the appointment, as here is one hour of preparation/meditation to be performed even if you do not show up. This will be applied toward your session, which will be billed at a rate of $$1.50 per minute. | |
