View Highlight:

The simpler is the visualization, the more effective is your meditation. For each chakra simply visualize its color at the location of that chakra.

The most important thing to remember is that you can’t do visualization and mantra at the same time. You will have to divide your time between visualization and mantra meditation of each chakra.

During your meditation, you must be still like a rock. The more stillness you gain of the mind, the more stillness comes in your body naturally.

avoid spicy, oily and deep-fried foods. Being a vegetarian will greatly help your cause because vegetarian food infuses you with sattvic energy.

For a determined and sincere practitioner, piercing the first two chakras, that is, root and sacral plexus, requires a devoted practice of one year each. Subsequent chakras need roughly six months each. This is assuming that you are able to devote an average of two hours every day, each day of the year. Those two hours should be split into two sessions of one hour each or three sessions of forty minutes each.

The devi in svadishthana chakra has four faces. She’s of yellow color and is holding a spike. She is situated in the body fat, likes honey and is surrounded by Bandhinya and other attendant energies. The devi likes victuals with yogurt and her name is Kakini


View Highlight:

The desire to copulate, the need for a sexual union at its core is the most liberating emotion. A man and a woman remove their coverings; they bare themselves to each other. There is no pretense, no artificiality. In that moment of climax, there is no ego, there is no clinging. It’s all about letting go. Even though they are united physically and emotionally, both the partners have surrendered to each other to experience one of the most divine pleasures – orgasm.


View Highlight:

It is not possible to reach an orgasm if you have inhibitions, if you have fears.


View Highlight:

Svadhisthana or the sacral plexus refers to the normal, natural abode of kundalini. This chakra is located at the point of genitals. It is from here that we express our sexual energy, procreate and derive the pleasure of sex.

View Highlight:

Tantric texts, such as Nitya Tantra, Kubjika Tantra, Kularnava Tantra, Mahanirvana Tantra, categorize all men into three segments based on their temperaments. They are: divya (divine), vira (valiant) and pashu (animal). However, when it comes to sexuality, there is a fourth temperament too, called manushya bhava (human sentiment). Any sexual act is generally performed in one of these four tendencies of divine, warrior, human or animal.



View Highlight:

carnal desire

Note: Carnal desire: A fundamental human impulse characterized by a strong longing for physical intimacy and sexual gratification Often associated with erotic attraction and sensual pleasure, carnal desire encompasses a range of feelings and behaviors related to the pursuit of sexual experiences It has been a focal point in various disciplines, including psychology, literature, and philosophy, where it is examined in the context of human relationships, morality, and societal norms Carnal desire has also been depicted in art and culture, reflecting both its universal nature and the complexities of human sexuality



View Highlight:

Somewhere, our emotional and spiritual thirst is far greater than our sexual appetite because we are spiritual beings.



View Highlight:

Unlike the human way, a warrior has a greater sense of detachment. For him, sexual union is a part of life, an aspect of their sadhana. Just like a warrior feels protective about his king, the one in vira bhava feels protective about their partner. This sense of protection should not be confused for possessiveness. A warrior protects out of a sense of duty and not attachment.


View Highlight:

In divya bhava, the boundaries between male and female blur before disappearing completely. It doesn’t feel like you are making love to another person. Instead, it feels that you are with your own extension, your mirror- self, your counterpart. A man is exploring his own feminine side in a woman and a woman is exploring her own masculine aspect, the right brain is getting in touch with the left brain, creativity is gaining oneness with logic. It is mind looking at itself.


View Highlight:

The final stage in sexual consciousness is the divine way. Animal wants to slake, human wants to possess, warrior wants to protect, but divine sets everything free.




View Highlight:

Love is a soft emotion, a gentle expression.


View Highlight:

The four aspects of the human mind are collectively referred to as the chatush-anatahkarana, the four seats of thoughts and feelings. They are: manas (mind), buddhi (intelligence), citta (consciousness), ahamakara (conception of one’s individuality).

View Highlight:

You have no demands and your joy only comes from giving all your love and joy to the other person. You offer your body, mind and soul in divya bhava. A sexual union is not to gratify any personal urges but to unite in love at all levels.


View Highlight:

This devi is established in body fat and likes honey and food with yogurt. It means while practicing meditation on this chakra, you should regulate your diet to include more honey and yogurt.
