Delightful,
sweet, safe and comfortable introductions to tantra,
pujas are rituals which resemble Sufi, Contra and
Square Dancing. In a puja, you share gazes, smiles,
energy and intimate talk as you rotate from partner to
partner. Our puja parties are the perfect atmosphere
to make new friends and find romance. Ideal for both
singles and couples. Great for beginners. (Partners
who are paired may perform all the rituals with each
other).

An
Introductory
TANTRA RITUAL,
Friday, June
12, 7 -9 PM
|
|
Excellent preparation for
entire June 12-14 weekend or the Saturday or Sunday
classes
Delightful, sweet, safe and
comfortable introductions to tantra, pujas are
rituals which resemble Sufi, and Square Dancing. In
a puja--starting with your mate, date or original
partner--you share gazes, smiles, energy and
intimate talk as you rotate from partner to partner.
Then you return to your original partner for a
finale that puts it all together.
This puja deepens your
relationship with your partner, if you come
together. If you come without a partner, the puja
gives you opportunities to make new friends and find
romance. The puja also deepens the understanding of
tantra for experienced practitioners and is also s a
great opportunity for beginners to sample tantra.
Partners who are paired may, if they choose, perform
all the rituals with each other, rather than rotate
to others.
In the All-Chakra Tantra
Puja rites, you tastefully and respectfully send and
receive energy with seven partners. As you rotate
among partners, you relate in a structured energy
exchange for each, with a different partner, energy
from each of your seven energy centers--chakras.
The rite you do with each
successive partner flows from a syllable of the Bija
Mantra, where each syllable awakens a different
chakra. One partner, one chakra; you take turns
sending and receiving in turn from your energy
centers concerned with security, sensuality, power,
love, communication, insight and spirituality. Then
you return to your initial partner for an entire
energy-charged Mantra, expand your consciousness to
one shared with our partner, then expand your
awareness to the whole group.
Through this ceremony, you
learn to center yourself and synergize your inner
security, sexuality, power, love, communication,
vision, and spiritual chakras. You enhance intimacy,
growth, respect, caring and passion with your
partner and the other people in the group. |
 |
 |
All-Chakra Tantra teaches you to center
yourself, communicate kindly and genuinely and
to regress and reprogram your imprints so you can synergize
your inner security, sexuality, power, love, communication,
vision, and spiritual chakras. You enhance intimacy, growth,
respect, caring and passion with each other. Share your heart and
start healing each other's deep hurts. You learn to relate to each
other from a discerning, centered perspective.
|
|
From your Center you see your
diverse inner-voices and your sweethearts. Recognize your
disowned energies in each other's attitudes and behaviors. You
show your sweethearts your inner fear, pain and vulnerability that
triggers your defensive subselves. Learn when and how to let your
Inner Children connect with each others.
Here's a summary of body parts,
tantric tasks and Sanskrit sound associated with each chakra. |
 |
|
|
 |
Lam
Inner
Child, Inner Responsible Parent [or any other
inner voices, from this life or others, attached spirits,
guiding archetypes that are aroused] chant lam . What
does a lover do that makes your Child safe. What does s/he do
that makes your Responsible, survival-oriented voice feel
loved. while you love others.
Lam is also the home of your
grounding, your connection to Earth, belonging to this life, to
your archetypal decision for finitude. For those who felt unwanted
at birth or childhood, you need to feel wanted and secure. We seek
security and acceptance we lacked as kids in our relations now.
Lovers can help you, but ultimately, its up to you to ground
yourself and assert your right to belong to this life. |
|
vam
Inner Sexual
Conservative and Sexy Self yam. What do your
partners do that makes your Sexy Side happy. What do they do
that makes your conservative side feel safe.
ram
Inner Leader, Supporter for ram. Ram exercises
include learning to assert yourself to get whats rightfully
yours.
yam
Inner Giver/Taker, Pleaser/Selfish, Romantic/Hero for
yam.
Exercises for yam include some special ones help us feel our
love.
|
 |
 |
ham
Inner Orator and
Secretkeeper for ham; exercises for authentic
communication
Ooo
Psychic,
Intellect
for Ooo.
Tonight, in the puja ceremony, we deal with one Ooo Voice,
one of our most powerful intellectual voices, our Critic.
Mmm
Higher Self, Self that includes your peak
experiences, dyadic consciousness, a synthesis of you and your
Beloveds, and the Divine for Mmm, where your
separate, individual self-senses and merge into your identity
with each other. You all merge with pastlife lovers, with the
polyamorous lover archetype, with all humanity and with Earth
and the Universe.
|
|
Chakra 1: PERINEUM:
MATERIAL GROUNDING (Lam)
Join your lovers in healthy
activities. Help each other feel secure and safe. Share
financially. Encourage each others wellness as you eat,
exercise and stretch together. Massage each other all over. Caress
each others base chakras, inside and out. In the Bija Mantra,
you chant "Lam" for this
chakra.
If youre male, you may invite
your lovers put fingers into your rectum and stroke your prostate
and the pleasure spot behind your pubic bone.
|
 |
 |
Whatever your gender, rectal
massage helps you hear inner voices that deal with your survival.
As your lovers touch you inside, you hear your Inner Critic, your
Pleaser, your Warrior. You hear voices that protect your Kid from
overwhelming physical and emotional pain and death. Interview
these voices; learn their present concerns. Listen to your Inner
Child. Let all your voices express themselves and you can
integrate their contributions. |
|
Chakra 2:
GENITALS: SEX, SENSUALITY, REPRODUCTION (Vam)
Stroke the womans sacred
sector--inner, belly-side vagina from pubic bone to orifice. Help
her emote and rescript self-limiting decisions she remembers when
you stroke her. Then she will, with great pleasure, respond to
your strokes. She ejaculates. Amrita springs from its urethral
font.
|
 |
 |
The woman manipulates her guys
first and second chakras. A man, too, regresses, releases pent-up
emotions and learns alternate behaviors which better serve him
now.
Enjoy a wider range of
sensuality.
Join genitals. Men, nestle your
penis, limp or erect, into the woman.
|
|
And men, ejaculate or pull your
energy up instead when you choose. To pull your energy up instead
of squirting: when you feel ejaculation pending, shift your focus
from your genitals to your hands, eyes and lips. Concentrate on
using your fingers, mouth and gaze to delight your lover. Pull
energy up from your genitals as you squeeze your pubococcygeal,
diaphragm and throat muscles. Picture energy flowing from your
crown into your lovers. Chant "Vam."
Men and women, you both center
yourselves and master your sexy and conservative voices.
|
 |
 |
Chakra 3: SOLAR
PLEXIS: POWER, DIGESTION (Ram)
Take what's yours, choose
boundaries right for you. Assert yourself appropriately. Empower
each other.
Explore power chakra dynamics
with your love group. Learn how you bond, sometimes sweetly,
sometimes sourly, into parental-child roles. Ram
meditations help you return to sweet and centered interaction.
|
You and a lover sour when you
(or they) feel scared or hurt but hide the hurt. You hide it and
act logical. Or you focus on each other. Or criticize yourselves
for feeling hurt.
Stop hiding pain; say what
hurts. And guess what hurt and scares your lovers, under their
hiding. When you and this lover unmask your fears and
insecurities, you touch hearts again. Return to center and sweet
interaction.
|
 |
 |
Chakra 4: HEART:
LOVE, COURAGE (Yam)
Chant yam, evoke your
Divine Consort and love, adore, support and cheer your lovers. Get
sweet; romance each other.
Share consciousnessidentify
with each other. Walk in each other's spiritual moccasins. Imagine
dying and those you care for dying and realize how precious is the
love you still can share. You and your beloved can still synergize
your separate spirits within a larger spirit, your dyadic
consciousness.
|
|
Chakra 5: THROAT:
EXPRESSION (Ham)
Chant, "ham".
Hear and express each of your inner voices (subselves). Appreciate
them and find creative ways to express them.
Honor your lovers many voices
too. Talk straight and with love; tell your truth.
|
 |
 |
Sanctify sex. Select words that revere sexual organs and acts. Yoni ("sacred space") for vagina, lingam (wand of light) for penis, "honoring" for cunnilingus and fellatio, "rosebud" for anus, "drapes" for vaginal lips, "pearl" for clitoral head, "polishing her pearl" for clitoral honoring, etc. Create your own poetic sex words. |
|
Chakra 6: BRAIN:
VISION, INTUITION, INTELLECT (Ooo)
For Ooo, the sixth chakra,
recognize your Intellect, and its committee members: Inner Critic,
Inner Philosopher and your inner Psychic and Inner Artist as
subselves. Employ your Intellect as needed and refuse its
masquerade as you, the Center.
Share and expand visions for
yourself, your lovers, your community and world. Intuit each
other's thoughts and feelings. Meld minds with your kids, parents
and friends. Dreams, past life images, fantasies guide you.
|
 |
 |
Chakra 7: CROWN:
UNITY CONSCIOUSNESS (Mmm)
Rise to wider perspectives of
your crown chakra, yet stay aware of the wisdom of chakras 1-6.
Encompass more than Thinker, Pleaser or other subselves. Expand
your awareness to more than your body. Expand your perspective to
everyone and everything everywhere at all-times.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Experience unity; the seamless web
of consciousness that links the manifest universe. Merge with the
latent--unformed but always arising--metacosmic void. Identify with
divine play that can manifest all forms. Infuse all chakras with the
radiant joy of your spiritual chakra. Treat yourself and your beloved
to tantra.

Bring a potluck dish to share at the party that follows the
ritual.
