from the root word tan, which translates as "to extend, expand, spread, continue, spin out,weave; to put forth, show,
or manifest." Like the universe we inhabit, Tantra is continually expanding, spreading, and manifesting itself like a
"cosmic weave," made up of different energies. Tantra is the use of the senses as a way of trandscending sensuality
and achieving liberation, enlightenment, "Divine Union". Tantra emphasizes awakening the kundalini within
the body and allowing this energy to rise, circulate in the body, and uplift consciousness. By embracing Tantra, we become more "real," more "complete." How? By recognizing and stimulating our inherent sensual spirituality, we discover parts of ourselves that have remained asleep or have been repressed. With Tantra, an energy is released that is evolutionary and "upwardly motivated." We can learn to use this energy for pleasure, for achieving our worldly goals, and for aiding our spiritual evolution. Familiarity with Tantra can help a person to enjoy life to the fullest. It can help do away with guilt or fear, break down self imposed or limiting cultural boundaries, and guide us in our search for solutions. Tantra teaches us to become familiar with our mystical nature, and when we do so, our boundaries expand. We enter into new domains of awareness. We become empowered, more fulfilled, and more perfect. More on Tantra--While Tantra has mystical, philosophical, and religious
aspects it is, above all, a technique of action--a physical, mental, and spiritual discipline which incorporates meditation,
yoga, and sacramental worship in the very widest sense of that phrase. All of the actions undertaken by a practitioner
of Tantraare performed with one purpose only; they are all means to the same end. That end is the transformation of
the individual, his or her rebirth to a new existence on every level of consciousness. ♥♥♥ Taoism--The word Tao means "The Way". At it's heart, Taoism presents a harmonious

it can be classified under the title of being Yin or Yang. ♥♥♥ Therapeutic
