Tantra provides an amazing framework and perspective that can radically change your dating experiences, and help you to manifest a quality loving partner in your life.

The conventional, non-tantric, approach to dating encourages us to look for faults and imperfections in another person. Modern dating apps and social media makes us believe that there is surely something wrong with any potential date, and even that there is something wrong with us. Modern society encourages us to compare ourselves to others, and conditions us to believe that we aren’t worthy of true love, or that true love doesn’t exist.

Because of this unloving approach to dating, we often end up self-sabotaging our dating efforts, as we too easily find excuses and reasons to reject potential partners. Our subconscious belief that we aren’t worthy of a quality partner leads us into situations and relationships that aren’t healthy.

On the other hand the Tantric approach to dating allows you to recognise that you are special, and beautiful, including your imperfections, and that you are worthy of love, that you are worthy of quality relationships with wonderful people.

With a Tantric view we start to transmit a different vibration out into the Universe, and we change the subconscious signals that we are projecting. Then we are in a far better position to attract very different quality of potential romantic partners to what we have experienced in the past.

This Tantric approach makes the whole process of dating much lighter, more fun, and joyful. And all of our dating experiences become beautiful, uplifting and enriching.

This episode is intended to remind you how important it is to visit sacred places, and reconnect with the raw power of God, and recharge your personal connection with the Divine.

I recently went back to visit the monastery where I had lived as a Hindu monk for 11 years. During my visit I was reminded of how easy it is to connect with the Divine in such a powerful sacred place.

In our busy and stressful daily life, it’s not easy to maintain that connection and awareness of the Divine. Here in the outside world, we are constantly bombarded with heavy vibrations, and crazy energies that make it really hard to feel God’s presence. The responsibilities and distractions of day-to-day living make it difficult to keep up the enthusiasm and passion for our regular spiritual practices.

Visiting a powerful sacred place can give you a huge boost of energy, enthusiasm and motivation for when you return back to your regular way of life. 

It’s so important to visit these sacred places, form time to time, so that you can refresh and recharge your connection to God. When you experience the raw power and presence of the Divine in such a place, you are reminded that God is so real, and the Divine is always present with you, wherever you are, whatever you’re doing.

She is always there, at the back of your awareness, patiently waiting for the moment you stop and turn your attention to Her.

Tantra is essentially about embracing every aspect of what it means to be human. The Tantric path gives us a means of utilising the body, the feelings, the mind, and all of the subtle energies in order to awaken a deeper, more expansive awareness within us. I was originally drawn to Tantra because it offers us the possibility of bringing together spirituality and sexuality, something which I had always intuitively felt was meant to be. However, I have come to realise that so much more is involved on this path. Tantra calls upon us to fully integrate all the parts of ourselves... not only your sexual desires and urges, but also your wounds and your conditioning from the past... even those parts which we have repressed or hidden away, and which we are appalled by, disgusted by, or afraid of.

Many traditional spiritual paths teach that you should disconnect from your negative parts, that you should reject them, disown them, and try to rise above and transcend all impure things within us.

But Tantra understands that we cannot escape from the dark side of our nature. We cannot run away from the things we don’t like about ourselves. They are deeply embedded in our psyche, and have been with us all our life. Trying to pretend they aren’t there is like trying to run away from the shadow that is cast on the ground by the bright sun. That’s why it’s called the Shadow, because it is inseperable from you.

In this episode I talk about The Shadow Self, and how it relates to Tantra and our samskaras.

In this podcast episode I talk about how Tantric dating can help you to clear a common love block, that maybe you are too attached to your "type" when looking for a lover.

With many dating apps designed to focus on that first impression of appearance, modern dating culture has become too obsessed about physical looks. And with social media training us to have an attention span of about 8 seconds, online dating has been reduced to making split-second judgements about people based on their profile photo. In the space of 60 seconds you might choose to reject 60 amazing deep beautiful people. That’s 60 potential opportunities for love, immediately discarded and closed off within a minute of your day.

Tantra teaches that everyone is a unique expressing of Divine beauty. And that means that eveyone has something deeply loveable about them. But sometimes it is not immediatley apparent, or it may require certain conditions or environment to see and connect with a person’s inner beauty.

In tantric dating you relax into your own divine beauty and you take the time to see the divine beauty of the other person. You stay open to possibilities. You explore different modes of connection which are not fixated on visual appearance, perhaps through fun and laughter, or through sensual touch, or through sharing moments. You keep in mind that this person who is with you right now in this moment has the potential to be your beloved. Maybe nothing will come of it, or maybe yes, who knows. But you can at least connect in love for this moment right now.

In this episode I talk about how conventional dating has become a very unloving process. This has created a culture of disposable dating, where we are so accustomed to using things, then throwing them away and buying new replacements. This mindset is prevalent in the dating industry… one only needs to spend a little time on dating apps such as Tinder to see how many people are ready to drop their potential date just as quickly as they would throw away a used tissue.

Tantric dating is a much more loving approach where we see everyone as expressions of the Divine, and we accept a person in their totality, including their imperfections and wounds. By taking a Tantric approach dating can be a much more enjoyable and rewarding experience.

In today’s episode of the Tantric Life Podcast I am joined for the first time by my partner, Melissa, as she interviews me about my life as a hindu monk in the monastery.

For 11 years I lived as a swami with my Guru in the monastery, where we followed a disciplined way of life to cultivate a connection with God. The spiritual path which my Guru taught was closely related to Tantra. It involved channelling sexual energy through work, worship, and devotional rituals. It was through this way of life that I came to a deep understanding of the presence of the Divine in everything, in the material world, in pleasure, in our emotions and thoughts. As Tantra teaches, when we accept and embrace all aspects of our human experience, we realise that our very own essence is Divine.

If this episode receives favourable feedback, we’ll continue now and then with a different tale from the monastery (in addition to the other types of episodes about Tantra), as I share some of the amazing stories and experiences that expanded my awareness and consciousness of the Divine.
