The Tantric Base: Spacious Passion | Vividness

This strange variety of tantric disorientation is one in which we find ourselves on the brink of the unknown – in the space of imminence, without hope or fear.

The Vajrayana consists of inserting the magnifying glass of the lama between the grace of the Buddhas and bodhisattvas and the mind of the disciples.1

Vajrayana relates directly to the emotional texture of our lives – through the very fabric of our neuroses.

Passion is crucial, because without strong erotic desire there is no energy to be transmuted into divine bliss. The Tantrikas understand that sexual energy is also the force behind spiritual evolution.

the fundamental insight of tantra is that the nature of our minds and of all phenomena in our experience is completely empty, pure, and awakened.
