How to set the stage for tantric practices ??

Practicing tantra with your partner may be light years away from how you used to make love.

Tantra is the cult of pleasure, play, the feminine, unlike many other ways of cult of the masculine full of mysteries and guilt.

The setting for a tantric ritual goes far beyond a simple bed. For the Tantriks it is necessary to sanctify the place, prepare a place free from all distractions and preferably close to nature, containing the 4 elements.

When preparing your ritual, create an outdoor sanctuary, the atmosphere should please both of you and the lack of imagination of Western environments can be altered with tapestries, curtains, ornaments, images of Hindu gods such as Shiva and Ganesha and objects that your eyes recognize beauty.

The place should be clean and airy, the colors that also influence the energy of the place: red and orange are stimulating and violet and dark blue induce an emotional state.

The bed should be close to the floor with plenty of clean pillows, pillows, and rugs. Electric light is not recommended, always use the four elements in the form of an altar: fire (wax candle), air (incense), water (mineral in a chalice) and earth (live flowers or crystals). You can even put OM symbols, anointing oils, candlesticks, some hibiscus flowers that are symbols of Tantra, images of lingans and yonis and whatever your creativity allows.

Just as you prepare for a big event, get ready for what could be one of the greatest pleasures in your life.
