‘Tantra’ means a spiritual technique, a total package that includes sadhana, mantra, yantra, worship, abhisheka and other processes. Tantra aims to transcend from the superficial level to the deepest level in order to realize the enlightened consciousness and the fullest potentialities of its practitioners. Unlike meditation and yantra, which are the components of tantra practices, tantra includes all the aspects of a practitioner – physical, mental, psychological, emotional and spiritual. Tantra is unique in that it takes the whole person into account. Other spiritual practices like meditation, worship, etc. ordinarily teach that the desire for worldly pleasures and spiritual aspirations are mutually exclusive, setting the stage for an endless internal struggle within the humans.
The present book aims to discuss these aspects in detail while describing the Tantra philosophy and practices in Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism. A detailed chapter is included at the end of this book which describes how tantra is a science and how its benefits can be measured in the laboratory. When this scientific aspect of tantra falls into the hands of quacks, it is misused, giving tantra a bad name. Fortunately, there are still many tantric masters and authentic scriptures to undercut such false and distorted notions about tantra and make it possible for us to gain a better understanding and utilize this sublime path.
