The slow movement and Tantric sex
7:10 AM Posted by 4 Freedoms Energy Sex in Conscious Relationship
“Every day, Honoré reports, 12,000 people navigate through the Internet's cascade of porn sites to reach www.tantra.com, home site for the burgeoning discipline that promises to channel sexual energy not only into finer, better sex, but also into a more perfect spiritual union with your partner. Despite the awful warning example of pop star Sting -- who has yet to live down his public ravings a decade ago about his tantric sex life -- Honoré was gamely determined to investigate and write about it. He and Miranda attended a workshop held in an old warehouse in North London, along with a cross-section of reassuringly normal Londoners.
Honoré was pleasantly impressed with all of it: the long period spent blindfolded, exploring his wife's hands, the sensory session with tastes and sounds, even the exercises designed to strengthen the pubococcygeus, the muscle running from the pubic bone to the tailbone that in tantric sex is the key to more intense orgasms. All that was easy enough to write about. Talking about his tantric experience, in terms of personal payoff, is naturally a lot harder. "People do ask, in a giggly way, but they do ask." The normally voluble Honoré pauses a moment while he ponders just how much of his -- and more importantly, Miranda's -- private life he's prepared to martyr to the cause. "We're not tantric, but we do have a slower beat now. Maybe that's true for everyone who slows down in everything else -- sex takes care of itself."

” Part user's manual and part quirky fact file, the first thing we learn from this fun, tongue-in-cheek and densely packed Canadian production is that the male appendage is a multipurpose tool designed for urination, procreation and pleasure.”

Interesting take on sex and middle age
6:41 AM Posted by 4 Freedoms Energy Sex in Conscious Relationship
“The former editor of Cosmopolitan magazine, upon hearing of the survey last week, felt moved to write roughly 1,500 words for a tabloid newspaper about how deeply sexually satisfied she is in her fifties which, while being delightful for her, might also be seen as a surfeit of information, as well as no information at all: is having sex all that she does? Is it all that matters?”

Gandhi's Tantric Politics
8:11 AM Posted by 4 Freedoms Energy Sex in Conscious Relationship
“Gandhianism has been the most effective counter to the view pervasive from Machiavelli to Marx that the end justifies the means and that the Realpolitik of statecraft demands that morality be put aside. Gandhi's witchcraft denies this special treatment of the state; for it, ends are inextricably tied with means. Rather than allowing the individual to be erased in the mass, Gandhianism at every level tries to place the most sentient unit of society at the center: the individual and the local community.
Gandhi's atavistic vision of self-sufficient villages and the harnessing of intellect to the spiritual growth of the individual rather than to industrial technology may have sounded like Luddism during the orgy of state violence in the mid-century but they have a strange futuristic relevance as quantum physics unveils a physical universe closely aligned and even inseparable from the psyche. The newest technology -- nanotechnology -- is an anti-technology that returns the human being again to the center of things and reinforces the deviant logic of mutuality, complementarity, and personal power rather than authoritarianism, competition, and the mass mind as the organizing principles of society.
When the CIA turns to “remote viewing” (psychic visualization) to conduct its operations, Gandhi's tantric politics sheds its quaintness. Beyond the global Daddy-state, as New Age physics and technology increasingly validate ancient Eastern ideas of nature and psyche, the witches and bastards of post-colonial India may well offer the most viable template for the development of anti-authoritarian non-violent communities that return human beings to their own personal power.”

Karezza Practices
10:06 AM Posted by 4 Freedoms Energy Sex in Conscious Relationship
“The Tantric practice called Karezza involves achieving prolonged intercourse without ejaculation. This practice incorporates breathing control, meditation, work with postures, and finger pressure into the sexual act. Its aim is for a male partner who is close to the point of ejaculation to be able to perpetuate the state of climax without actually ejaculating.”
