| | Tantra |
 | | Tantra insists that mantras are efficacious, that the diagrams used in the worship are potent, that the deities, or devatas, are conscious entities, that supernatural powers are attained, and that the earnest aspirant experiences the rise of the Kundalini through the different spinal centres (Chakras) and finally realises his identity with Satchidananda. | | | Tantra promises its devotees not only enjoyment of worldly happiness but also liberation, and acknowledges that the power of the Kundalini can be aroused by the sincere pursuit of the spiritual disciplines recommended by all the great religions of the world. | | | Tantra believes that some of the basic Mantras have not been created by human brains, but are eternally existent, and that through their repetition the aspirant attains to perfection. |

| | Tantra |
| | Allied to non-sexual meditative schools of yoga, such as hatha yoga (the yoga of body posture) and bhakti yoga (the yoga of devotion), this contemplative school of teaching advocates a fairly non-sexual approach to sex religion, in which visualization of a deity, chanting of a mantra, and concentrating on iconographic symbols are the foremost activities. | | | Tantra (a Sanskrit word which means "woven together") is a term loosely applied to several divergent and even contradictory schools of Hindu yoga in which the sexual union of male and female is worshipped either in principle or in human practice. | | | Like Hindu tantra, Tibetan Buddhist tantra encompasses schools of practice that range from the meditational to the sexually active. |

| | Tantra is a spiritual science, which means it is also mystical, in its interconnectedness, the holistic wisdom link between ourselves and the universe we inhabit. | | | Tantra has been well tested over thousands of years, not in worldly laboratories but in the laboratories of the human body, by Yogi scientists and Tibetan Lamas who were not driven by commerce but by the earnest desire for spiritual knowledge and liberation. | | | In Buddhist Tantra, or Vajrayana, in contrast to the Hindu, the female principle of "wisdom (prajna) is seen as static, whereas the male, or "means (upaya), is active. |

| | The Sacred Art of Tantra by David Cherubim |
| | Tantra is the esoteric teaching and practice of the Vedic Mysteries; it is, in fact, the most ancient wisdom of all religions. | | | Tantra essentially means "action." Tantra is divine knowledge in action; it is the act of the Divine in manifestation. | | | It is, in Tantra, the same as the Atman or True Self; it is the Sacred Jewel in the lotus born from the union of the two opposites in Nature. |

| | Tantra Australia ~ Diane McCann and Robert Mathews |
| | Tantra is an ancient art form which transforms your sexual and spiritual lives by uniting them and it turns the sexual into the sacred. | | | Tantra is for people who know there is 'more', who want to discover how to combine sexuality and spirituality, who want to be more alive in their bodies, have more ecstasy and transform their relationship and their life. | | | Tantra is lovemaking at its highest octave and it connects the passion of the genitals with the deep love and intimacy of the heart, totally fulfilling both partners. |

| | Rather, the goal of tantra yoga is to awaken and harmonize the male and female aspects within each person in order to spiritually awaken and realize the whole universe as an expression of the Cosmic Mother, the divine life force, or Spirit. | | | Tantra yoga is not concerned with sexuality, but with the creative force and transmuting this energy into higher channels. | | | Sometimes self-styled teachers have misconstrued the symbolism of tantra yoga into sex practices for men and women. |

| | Tantra, as a spiritual synthesis, incorporates different forms of yoga in terms of practice and methodology. | | | While traditional tantra places the triad of mind, breath, orgasm in the service of spiritual growth, here we see only the orgasm, but this also without any spiritual connotation. | | | The fundamental difference between Tantra and Neo-Tantra is that while sexuality is means to spiritual growth for one, it is just a tool for increasing sensuality for the other, ending in itself. |
