BRAIN AND TANTRA

By Marjo Ramstadius

“Good Love Making” is always an action which needs higher intellectual functions. Making love in the Tantric way is a spiritual issue which involves these higher intellectual functions of the cortex. The more the cortical and sensory inputs are developed and enhanced, the higher pleasure-consciousness levels are attained.

 Tantric love making is like surfing on waves; hearing and feeling your body and MIND. If you use only your body as a board on the surfing of the waves, there won’t be any surfer! There will only be just an empty surfing board, without the surfer and director. But if your MIND is on that surfboard too, then surfing will mean anything: you will fly and glide into to the ocean of love and pleasure with the beautiful waves! The best part of the fun is you won’t surf alone, in Tantric love you should be the surfing board and the surfer, then you will be opening into a different dimension in this ocean! 

Tantra first trains the mind and the brain. The major sensory input from the sexual sensory organs is amplified, as well as the inner aspect of sexual pleasure in the mind and brain are blended and sharpened. So Tantra does not start to train the human beings concentrating on their sexual organs, unlike what we see in the destructive pornography, but it trains the mind’s capacity to perceive the sensory inputs and the sexual stimulations! Without this training Tantra is nothing! The mind and brain should learn to analyze and evaluate the amplified sexual pleasure. Here are to figures to explain the Tantric mind:

We all are blessed with many senses, each of them is important and each will have its own crucial body-mind effect while we are making love. Seeing your partner, having a soul-connection with him/her; sensing with your skin; the divine touch; smelling your partners tempting "smell" and pheromones Hearing music, partners voice, crying, moans, shouts, love-voices and expressing your own pleasure loud, orgasm cries; tasting the love with your sensitive tongue; and just letting all these senses dance together in the divine and sacred love, all together merging into your lover.

All senses are blended and sharpened in Tantra, for getting a resultant of a pure symphony of LOVE and pleasure! For composing such a beautiful music, you need to be very harmonious and you need to train your mind only concentrating on one very well known and experienced soul-partner (this cannot happen in polyamory!). So that is why the brain and mind are the first trained spots in your body before coming to the other “spots”!

The methods of how to teach and establish your Tantric brain is a subject of many books which I am planning to write! However, this article is just a butterfly touch on the importance of mind/brain/body connection in Tantra to induce a little “butterfly effect” on you!
