TANTRA Articles and Secrets                              TANTRA22.TXT
        ***********************************************************************          I'd like to complete this article by honoring the divine male in all of
        us with my poem:

        LISTEN, PEACEFUL WARRIOR

        Come here and relax
        Let the eternal feminine 
        hold you tenderly
        Come and penetrate softly
        The fountains of silence
        And rest in the depth
        Of her golden cavern.

        The return to innocence,
        To the eternal womb of creation.

        Let her hold you tenderly
        While you be still and receive
        The nectar of her inexhaustible passion

        Relax
        There is nothing to do
        And nowhere to go
        You've come here
        To taste the ecstasy
        That is your birthright.

        TO YOU, DIVINE LOVER

        BLESSINGS!

        I woke up this morning feeling full
        with our beautiful exploration 
        of yesterday.

       Your exquisite sensitivity 
       and lightness of being
       still fill the space around me.

       Your inquiring mind touches, 
       arouses, undresses
       and penetrates me deep inside

       I feel naked, 
       there is nowhere to hide
       and no need to hide, 
       I want the truth!

       This exploration 
       into the unknown
       is what I am here for.

       Nowhere to go, 
       Nothing to do
       The Tantric path 
       reveals itself, 
       moment to moment.

       The web of endless mysteries
       A formless awareness
       A total commitment
       To realize 
       the ultimate freedom 
       of being.
       Nothing less will do
       A merciless commitment

       Like a sword cutting through 
       the veil of illusions
       A mighty request to let go of 
       all attachments to the form.
       The form which stagnates the river.

       Your words resonate deep and inspire

       I love who you are, 
       passionate lover of the truth,
       Explorer of the unknown.

       I am filled with gratitude 
       to meet you, 
       fellow traveller
       On this journey 
       into the unknown.

       Your beauty brings 
       tears of joy, 
       washing my face 
       with sweetness,
       This morning 
       in my bed.

       I saw emptiness 
       in moments of stillness
       While gazing into your eyes 
       last night.

       Rare moments where 
       the mind disappears
       And where one is.

       I release you 
       into the light 
       my lover, 
       my friend.

       May the free spirits 
       that we are
       Keep dancing and 
       sharing our deep ecstasy.

       Honoring the truth 
       of who we are.
