sex:the most avoided topic by most of the religious teachers-be it in eastern part of the world or western part due to the firm belief of many ignorant people that sex is sin and should be avoided or suppressed to achieve an enlightenment,this is the most harming and unfortunate phenomenon that has occurred to human kind because of the misrepresentation of the real facts by so called religious teachers who has acquired knowledge from the books -but no first hand experience or an y deeper understanding of life it self ,but i always know that for any misunderstanding or suffering we go through -we are the sole responsible for the same and to blame some one else- be it a person or society or circumstances other than our self is cheap escapism which any dignified individual would not opt for ,so let us try to go deep and understand sex with open and alert mind leaving all the assumptions about it to the side and ponder over our own first hand experience of it as an adult,matured person.
All most all the live beings are attracted and ultimately gets indulged in to the sexual activity at the certain stage of their life and the age/ time for which varies a lot due to many reasons known and unknown and once experienced it ,a deep craving to repeat it again and again seems almost unavoidable and the obvious reason every one knows is -it is an extraordinary experience of Ecstasy that creates craving for the same but going deep into our mind to know more about it we would soon realised that even though its an extra ordinary experience of life ,it can not be fulfilled satisfactorily without a partner which creates a dependency on some one else than our own self for that pleasure and any kind of dependence on any one other than your self is bound to limit the life and its exploration for infinite -independent joy which is the ultimate purpose and the goal of the every life.
For the joy and freedom of the life ,it is necessary to be independent of any outer agent and avoid all the miseries resulting from that dependence , many in the past and in the present ,very deep thinkers and wise people with real wisdom found out that same ecstatic experience is possible without any dependency of an outer agent which creates the 'hell'-(as a well known philosopher said the other is 'hell') and as the result of that finding, they reached or UN covered the state of mind which could remain in ecstatic form all the time on its own without any outer agent and that phenomenon is termed as an enlightenment among the truth seekers.
It is very important to understand that other is not always the hell but the 'otherness' is for sure ,this otherness completely dissolves when two people are in deep love with each other which state of being could help tremendously to experience that freedom/enlightenment for both the individuals involved in the phenomenon -and the whole science of enlightenment with the help of opposite sex partner is known as 'tantra vigyan'(science),this method to be enlightened is rare and avoided by most of the religions due to lot more chances of failure due to the habit of conditioned mind to rush to experience that extra ordinary Ecstasy sooner even though for the fraction of the period rather than complete awakened state which lasts for ever and to be aware and awake during those moments is possible only if the seeker has very deep thirst to know the truth of the life in its entirety and has courage to let go that temporary pleasure for something which is permanent and eternal .
Now please understand very well that 'tantra' way is not for every one and it is one of the many different methods for enlightenment and there are other methods apart from 'tantra' which are much lesser riskier to fall from because those other methods do not have that powerful natural force attached to it ,the way it is in 'tantra' method.
let me be very clarified that no method is a set guaranteed method for enlightenment -be it 'tantra' or other traditional method,it will be safe to say when you jump beyond all the methods completely to the unknown with all the courage you have ,than and only than you will reach there and once there you will keep laughing like a laughing 'Budhha' who found that mystery was no mystery at all to work so hard to solve it or to be enlightened.
understanding above facts the immediate question which arise from a shallow mind for how to achieve an enlightenment? will realise and take trouble to go deep within ones self and try to find out on its own,of course an enlightened one would be the great source of inspiration and guidance .
let us dissolve that otherness with others from our life and live harmoniously with every one to make the life enjoyable and peaceful to unfold the ultimate mystery.
love to all.
