what is white tantra?
it is a form of devine sublimation of spritual energy obtained from meditation of female devine goddess,clearly a aspect originated from sri vidya an ancient tantra tradition (daksheenmargee tantra) which was more developed by adi shankaracharya in india books references might give some idea beause it is totally described in oral tradition by guru to his followers no written text strictly agama shashtra and transformed through shaktipaat to the kind fellow of tantra tradition .no vammargee rituals are performed during white tantra practices as described by occultist punitanand saraswati in his lecture. books refered , rudrayamal tantra,brihadyamal tantra, dattatraya tantra. Chanting Om is the first step towards meditation. All that you need to do is to hide at a peaceful place, sit down on the floor, gently close your eyes, take a deep breath and chant Om. While doing so, completely relax your muscles. Don’t tighten your muscles; otherwise you won’t be able to feel the energizing effect of chanting Om. Meditation on Om will revitalize your energy and rejuvenate you completely. To know more about Om meditation, read on.
For Aum meditation, it is of utmost importance to retire at a tranquil place, otherwise your concentration will get adversely affected. Try not to let your mind wander and think about other worldly things. Repeat Om several times in a day and try to associate it with the feeling of eternity. Don’t just speak out Om, but also think about its meaning in your heart and then see the magical effects.
When you recite Om, just don’t do it for the sake of it. Instead, make a sincere effort to accomplish the purpose of performing it. If you succeed in doing so, there will be amazing feeling in your heart. There is no fixed time of meditating on Om. You can do it as many times as you wish. When your mind is totally able to concentrate, it is at that point of time that you are in a position to realize the power of divinity.
Tantra is the spiritual practice and study of the life force energy as it is perceived and expressed through the human body. The concepts of Tantra are actually very easy to understand, the fact that many find it very difficult to define it is an artifact of our social programming and conditioning.
In the practice and study of Tantra the life energies are acknowledged to a great extent. While our culture has externalized these energies and called them “God”, Tantra teaches that the source of these energies are within us and we express them in our behavior, language, creativity, thought, even appearance.
swamiji tells that In Tantric practice the life energies are acknowledged as they are expressed from their source within the individual and through the energy channels (often called Chakras). These channels are the paths through which the energy expresses spirituality and intelligence, intuition and insight, communication, love, will, sexuality, and self esteem.
These channels are universally experiential to human expression, many poetic verses have been written about heartfelt gratitude, grief, and love, the “gut feelings” of will and frustration, and the localization of sexual sensations. These are just a few examples of these channels and their relationship to sensation and expression.
There are three possible reasons that discourage the understanding of what Tantra really is. These errors are:
1. Defining Tantra through Hindu terminology.
2. “Americanizing” Tantra.
3. “Sexualizing” Tantra.
The reason the first is confusing is that no one growing up in our culture can understand the deepest meaning of the Hindu. We inevitably interpret the Hindu concepts from a Western Christian perspective. Further confounding the issue is that this Western Christian perspective, whether “Protestant” or not, is highly influenced by the hypocrisy, suppression, and exploitation of the Catholic Church over the span of the last 500 years. Even though the Catholic Church often recognizes and “atones” for their mistakes, such as the execution and later canonization of a number of saints, they continue to promulgate the errors in the present.
Some of us think we can define Shiva, Shakti, and Kundalini, concepts that are at the root of the Hindu philosophy. However, if 100 of these people that claim to understand these deities and energies were interviewed, each would provide a different definition. Often these definitions, again, would be expressed through filters of conditioning under the influence of the Western “god in heaven blessing and cursing us for our good and bad behavior” paradigm.
Even the simple Buddhist concepts such as karma, emptiness, attachment, and mindfulness are often interpreted through this paradigm as well. The fact is that we are programmed, conditioned, and brainwashed by the cultural paradigm that God is outside of us, with everything that we think will make us happy.
Once one starts on the Hindu path the understandings of more subtle concepts such as Nadanta, Samhara, and Udana create even further confusion and challenges.
The reason the second reason is confusing is that Americans, for example, do not even consider the basic energies of Tantra to be elements of our universe.
If asked, Americans might be able to remember four elements of their universe (earth, air, fire, and water), unless they watched the movie, “The Fifth Element” four or five times and understood the role Mila Jovovich played in the film. Even so, the importance of this element is hardly understood.
The elemental energies of the life force are very mystical and magical, and the dissociation of them from our cultural understandings is perhaps the worst tragedy to befall us in history. The religion of Tantra restores the importance of this fifth element and the study and practices encourage the free expression of the life energies through the individual.
The third reason creates a misunderstanding around Tantra that makes it less universally understood. Discussing Tantra in relationship to orgasm, controlling bodily responses, stimulation of erotic zones, sexual “healing”, even our perceptions of sexuality, does little to help the naive individual comprehend the wealth of insight in the world of Tantra. Tantra is about the life force energies and all expressions. The topic and issues that many face in the sexual realm are an important part of Tantra just as they are an important part of the full life span of an individual or couple.
The approach that makes the most sense is defining Tantra free of the Hindu religion and philosophy, free of the Hindu terminology, free of the sexual focus, and free of the attempts to “Americanize” it. Tantra is a religion but one that increases your understanding , encourages your faith, and enhances your belief system.
To reiterate, Tantra is the practice and study of the life force energy as it is perceived and expressed through the human body, both individually and as experienced with others. The concept of a life force energy is nearly universal, Chi in the Chinese, Ka in Egypt, Ki in Japan (the root of Reiki), Prana in India, Eros in Greek (where the whole concept of Tantra can be understood in a clear light), and Animus in the Latin.
It would be hard to dispense with the idea of a life force energy. We know via the limited understandings and vocabulary of quantum physics, that everything in our world, animate or not, is composed of particles, space, and energy. The reason your world looks solid is that relatively few particles are moving so fast that we experience them in millions of places at once (due to the slow speed of our perception).
The life force is a different sort of energy, hence referred to as mystical and magical earlier, as it animates material forms and adds the element of consciousness or awareness to existence as defined by acharyaji in his lectures. origin of tantra Apart from the authority of Rudrayamala Tantra regarding the Varnashrama Dharma, one may also look into Meru Tantra and kularnava tantras, as well as bhanmati black magic of maharashtra. It is very sad to notice people straying away from Vedas. It is also very unfortunate that people see foul play in the great work of our Acharyas, who have resurrected the Shakta tradition from a state of ignorance and superstition. Pranava forms the very basis of the entire Vedic and Tantric literature. Though Shakti Pranava/s are equally powerful, it is totally impossible to accept that addition of Pranava reduces the efficacy of a mantra. Yes, Navakshari should be chanted without Pranava. But as far as Srividya goes, chaturataari is much more powerful than tritaari. A close examination of Dataatreya and Dakshinamurthi Samhitas makes this point clear. My guruji explicitly warned against incomplete study of tantras. What results, if otherwise, is half- baked knowledge, which apart from leading nowhere, causes further damage.
The main problem with most aspirants today is that they are not aware of the underlying significance and theoretical philosophy of most Tantric sayings. Superficial understanding leads to more illusion in the name of Tantra. The result is that most believe and ape what they think is real Tantra. Unless one understands Vedanta and the concepts of Veda properly, the study of Tantra and thereby the achievement in Tantra remain incomplete.
