Tantra Terms
Tantra is in the Western world deemed to be  a  discipline that focuses on meditation, breathing, energy and
focused touch  to enhance understanding and appreciation of sexuality and intimacy.

Taoism: A Chinese religion and philosophy that sees the universe as engaged in ceaseless motion and activity.
All is considered to be in continual flux. The universe is intrinsically dynamic. The process is described in terms of
Yin and Yang that should be balanced or harmonized through energy awareness, yoga, meditation,  etc., to
promote spiritual wholeness.

Vibrational Healing: The use of a variety of modalities which promote healing by balancing the client's energy
body. Such modalities may include homeopathy, flower essences, acupuncture, Reiki and Polarity Therapy
among others.

Reiki: (pronounced Ray-Key) is a system of enlightenment and a hands-on healing art developed in the early
1900's in Japan. The word Reiki is a combination of two Japanese kanji - Rei and Ki, meaning Universal Life
Force Energy. The term "Reiki" is used to describe both the energy and the system of using it. The practice of
this art involves the transfer of life force energy from practitioner to client to enhance the body's natural ability to
heal and balance itself.

Energy Body: That aspect of the self which is primarily concerned with action taken on the subtle, pre-material
realms of existence. The Energetic body in the human being closely parallels the physical form, and coordinates
the chakras, and psychic action.

Chakras: A Sanskrit word meaning "wheel", and refers to the centers
or points (usually considered to be seven in number)  of spiritual power
that reside in or  compose the human astral body. These points,
or centers of consciousness, are considered to have  correspondences
with the physical body that run along the spine from the very base to
the very crown. Each point represents a different kind or quality of
subtle energy which can be focused and activated by various practices.
When awakened, kundalini energy flows upward from the base  of the
spine through these six centers to the seventh chakra at the crown
of the head.

Kundalini:  Sanskrit for “fire snake,” or “serpent power,” this energy is described as waiting in coils at the base
of the spine, to be called forth. It revives and transforms the Chakras as it rises, enhancing both physical and
psychic powers. It is
absolute pure life-force energy; the power of the Self which is permeating every visible and
invisible reality, including the mind which grasps them. Every meaning, every sound and every thing manifests
out of Kundalini.

Divine Intimate:  One who has claimed their own sexual power and has the ability to transfer that understanding
to another via word, touch or energy exchange.

Divine Intimacy:  The art and practice of being truly PRESENT with another in intimate sharing.

Full Body Orgasm:  The movement of pleasure up the energetic channel of the spine, through your etheric
heart center and into your head, enabling you to feel the intensity of your orgasm in every cell of your body, not
just in your genitals.

Multiple Orgasm: The ability to channel the energy of pleasure multiple times during any love making session.

Ejaculation Mastery:  The art of separating ejaculation from orgasm which allows a man to enjoy the pleasure
of climax while making love for extended periods receiving -- and giving -- amazing pleasure with his own dry
multiple orgasms.

Lingham: Sanskrit name for the male penis meaning "wand of light".

Lingham Massage: Specialized massage techniques of the lingham, testicles, and the perineum coupled with
finely choreographed breathing exercises, the overall goal of which is to create a space in which the receiver can
relax, and surrender to a form of pleasure he may not be used to.
