| April 5, 2010 | Hindus upset with West's fixation just on sex in Tantra | |
Nevada (US): Tantra is reportedly becoming quite popular in North America and Europe and Hindus are strongly critical of such self-styled 'tantrics' who apparently think and
describe of Tantra as just sex. Acclaimed Hindu statesman Rajan Zed, in a statement
in Nevada (USA) today, said that Tantrism was a major channel in Indian religious
traditions and besides Hinduism, it also exerted considerable influence on Buddhism
and Jainism. Sankaracharya had mentioned the names of 64 Tantras. Rajan Zed, who
is president of Universal Society of Hinduism, pointed out that Tantra, a method
of spiritual self-culture, was divine revelation whose history went back to fourth
century. Tantra was a conscious approach to self-discovery which directed the
seeker to prepare mind and body to the level where it could withstand any turbulence,
both inner as well as outer. Tantras noted three unique states of sadhana (spiritual
endeavor)-purification, illumination, and unification. |
