Tantra

Tantra reveals a view of life, the universe, and ourselves which is at once new and ancient, exotic and intuitively familiar. Tantra is a yogic discipline that awakens the sacredness and magic of the sexual act, and of life itself.

In Tantra: The Cult of the Feminine, André Van Lysebeth reveals ancient secret teachings of Tantric yoga. This groundbreaking book, published after three decades of living what he teaches and teaching what he lives, is thorough, accessible, and practical.

Through vivid illustrations of Tantric postures and graphic step-by-step instructions of Tantric technique, Van Lysebeth shows western couples the sexual techniques that can be used to enhance relationships and help open the door to sexual enlightenment. Readers will be guided through the Tantric outlook, the “other” view of human sexuality, Tantric myths, symbols and rituals, and sexual control for men and women. He also reveals the Wisdom of Tantra—the essential belief that our universe is a creation of the physical and spiritual union of the Male and the Female principles, manifested in the human plane as Love.

Tantra: The Cult ofthe Feminine re-defines our understanding of human potential, explains the sacred link between the physical body and higher consciousness, and brings esoteric theory and practice into the realm of everyday life. Van Lysebeth’s warmth and insight brings readers to new dimensions of ecstasy and understanding!
