orgasm in tantra

Orgasm in tantra, a great secret in the practice of sexual continence is learning about the mechanism of the orgasm. There are, both men and women so skilful in the art of love with sexual continence that they can experience orgasmic states at will and even induce these ineffable states in others, even without physical contact.

Sexologists define the orgasm in a non-poetical manner. They say that the orgasm is "a trance accompanied by the loss of contact with reality". In the tantric opinion, orgasm is a benefit state of expanded consciousness in which the usual limits of the being are spontaneously dropped, the limits of the mind are abolished and the subject plunges into the abyss of a beatific void.

When one lives the orgasm, he/she discovers with amazement the state of abandoning one's self to the ecstatic experience, the abnegation, the "death" of the ego, the dissolution of time and space, the unifying state of contraries. All these effects make the state of orgasm identical with the state of spiritual bliss. For this very reason, in tantra, the state of spiritual illumination is also named the "Cosmic Orgasm". So, do not mix up the orgasm with simple pleasure or sexual satisfaction. It is known that the orgasm in tantra begins with a delicious sensation of suspension in a void-like state, or mysterious stop, lasting for several moments, and it is immediately followed by an intense awareness of the sensuality, and of the interaction with the energies of opposing polarity of the person we make love to.

Repeated, prolonged non-ejaculatory orgasm makes both lovers be embraced in a gigantic subtle field of energy that interweaves through them and sometimes goes beyond them, expanding their auras to incredible extents. Once again, we are not referring to the mechanic act of love, lacking transfiguration and love, without sexual continence , in which the two participants only use reciprocally their bodies to obtain a pale state of pleasure, lacking communication and subtle union, when each of the two "does his or her thing" and then they feel sad and lonely.

Usually, men consider that the orgasmic stage represents a necessary accumulation of vital, psychic and mental energy that needs to be discharged in order for them to be able to experience orgasm. However, the initiates of the Orient have known for thousands of years that a person may experience orgasm even tens of times during the same act of love, and even in the absence of ejaculation.

However, this paradise-like way of making love is reserved to the blessed few: lovemaking sprung out of love, with transfiguration and continence is a great advantage for the organism.
