Agama Yoga, led by Swami Vivekananda Saraswati, hosts several of its Tantra 1 and 2 seminars each year. This year’s workshops offer exceptional opportunities to study the traditions of tantric Yoga and spiritual eroticism in the lush, natural seaside setting of Thailand, as well as in other locations around the world.

The esoteric Tantra 1 teachings are presented in a coherent, step-by-step approach, well adapted to the Western mentality without losing their original mystique and richness. The mysteries and secrets of spiritual eroticism are presented in conjunction with the relevant information from Yoga, Chinese Taoism, Tibetan Buddhism, alchemy, and Middle Eastern Imsak. Printed supplemental material is provided, and the workshops are marked by many exemplifications, meditations, and initiations (energy inductions). Videos on relevant topics are presented whenever possible. The course keeps a commitment to a clear and elevated level of communication, but there are no explicit presentations or nudity whatsoever.

Tantra 1 is consecrated mostly to theory, training, and practical issues for the individual. Tantra 2 follows with more in-depth treatments and covering mostly couple-practice issues.

The syllabus for Tantra 1 includes these subjects:

modern Sexology
the difference and separation between orgasm and ejaculation
analysis of the curves of pleasure and methods of retention/control of the sexual energy
the different forms of orgasm
meditations of transmutation-sublimation of the sexual energy
Hatha Yoga relevant to the tantric practice
healing
medical correlations with Tantra
specific forms of training for men and for women
study of the tantric sexual union.

The course includes all the necessary knowledge for participants to start mastering tantric sexuality.

HERE ARE SOME PAST PARTICIPANTS' COMMENTS:

"Wow! When something so obvious has been staring you in the face for so long, you can't help feeling a bit stupid for not working it out yourself. The way I relate to my body and my girlfriend's needs and desires has been destroyed and rebuilt. Thankyou so much, Agama - I feel like a man, now" - Anonymous

"Lovemaking has always been a difficult issue for me, but I have an understanding of what it really is now, so much more elevated and beautiful - an expression of the divine. This workshop should be taught in schools." - Henrietta Spooner - USA
