Let’s Meet!

 

Would you like to meet me? 
How about a day for you with me?

Here for you, a precious opportunity to meet me and some WildTantra Team members and get to know what WildTantra is all about!
On 24 November at  Code 49 – Venwoude, I will present some of our methods and discuss the Path of Awakening program,
the renowned two-year process I have been offering in the Netherlands for 15 years.

What will we do?
We will practice five WildTantra methods, focusing on the breath, life force, desire, and gratitude.
Between practices, I will share the essence of Wild Tantra in a condensed form. I will keep it brief and to the point so we have plenty of time for the practices.
Understanding comes from practising the methods, rather than overloading the mind with concepts!

Places are limited!
Currently, there are only spots available for men (women are fully booked).
Men are warmly welcomed!

Much love and gratitude,

Unconditional Love

 

 

Love is Unconditional!

We wish it and dream it, but how can we be unconditional with our love when jealousy, envy, possession, and manipulation rule the expressions of our hearts? 

In Tantra, there are no intellectual answers to this; only challenging situations and precise methods can awaken the capacity for unconditional love.
In the tradition of the Kaula Heart of All, unconditional love is to be found in the dynamic of our relationships. The practices from this Tantric tradition are based on exploring awareness in relation to oneself, other people, animals, plants, and the whole of nature. In the Vigyan Bhairav Tantra (VBT), an ancient Shivaist Tantra scripture, unconditional love is explored through methods involving the body, breath, senses, pleasure, and sounds. These traditions emphasise Devotion and Gratitude as the primary keys to unconditional love.


AHAM LOVE Retreat offers precious meditation methods and situations originating in the Tantra Kaula of the Heart of All and the Vigyan Bhairav Tantra (VBT). The practices explore the many facets of the Heart through relating, praying, singing, and body awareness practices. The retreat aims to support you in stepping out of the mind’s mechanical reactions to the Heart’s spontaneous response by uprooting yourself from conditionings that prevent the expression of love.

This profound journey supports transmuting the energy of lower emotions to vibrant emotions such as gratitude and, ultimately, unconditional love. The process offers you the opportunity to discover your capacity for love, silence, transparency, and clarity. It connects you to your blissful being, highly sensitive awareness, and a vibrant heart.

 

I look forward to sharing those precious diamonds with you this summer from 3 to 10 August in Turkey!

Thank You!

 

Thank you!

This passing year could be resumed with these simple words,
which we tend to forget:
Thank you!
Thank you, not even for something.
Just Thank you,

Just a burst of gratitude from my heart to yours!

Like a flowing river,
rays of light,
laughter,
silence…

In this time of transition from one year to another,
I wish we all transition from ignorance to wisdom!
I wish you to light up your life with gratitude!

Gratitude is Medicine!

Much love and gratitude,

RAJA Lovers Retreat

What are Desire and Pleasure?

 

Is it possible to use them as a stepping stone to Consciousness?
Or is all a source of suffering?

Desire and pleasure are part of the journey of life. They motivate our actions, decisions, and relationships. We get some momentary fulfilments from them and some frustrations too! The frustrations lead to more desire for pleasurable moments. It goes on and on. We are prisoners of this loop, which generates much suffering.

Is there a way out of the loop which doesn’t condemn pleasure and desire?
Yes!
Entering the emptiness of the Heart is the essential Step!

RAJA Lovers Retreat explores this step through a Ritual involving the embrace, the caresses, and the kisses between two lovers. All the intimate gestures of the lovers are a means to fuse the body with intense life energy. While channelling this energy to the Heart, we provoke a meeting beyond ego, personality, restricted beliefs, and dreams. A true meeting happens by blending refined physical sensations with high awareness, discipline, and devotion during the Ritual.

The preparation for the Ritual during the retreat invites the lovers to move out of mechanical sex and mind projections and expectations. It is a profound enquiry into the body’s rhythms, breath, mind and the emptiness of the Heart. The retreat supports lovers in awakening their energies and bodies to refined sensitivity and vitality to activate their potential for love and consciousness.

 The main areas of exploration:
Learning & practising the Raja Ritual
Practicing the Yoga of Creation
Entering the Great Desire
Centering in the emptiness of the Heart
Reviving Wonder
Opening to the forces of Creation

New Year = New Retreat

New Year = New Retreat

Yes!

A new retreat for 2024!
Guess what?

A retreat especially for Lovers!

Over the last 25 years of offering Tantra retreats, I have been profoundly looking at the dynamic Couples/Lovers. It has puzzled me and, from time to time, irritated me a lot! I discovered some essential distinctions between these two dynamics of the relationship between a man and a woman.
Couples dynamic is about manipulation, domination, abuse…
Lovers dynamic is about consciousness, love, peace…

I don’t blame couples!
I have been in that dynamic. I know the hell this can be!
I just like to make a distinction in potential between a man and a woman.
It can turn very destructive or very creative.
These two aspects are the two sides of the same coin: Life Energy.

It is a matter of how we channel it.
The same hand can caress or kill!
The same mouth can kiss or insult!

When couples channel their life energy in harmonious ways, they become lovers. And lovers support the expansion of consciousness, of love.
Lovers are very creative and transformative.
They can extract diamonds of bliss from the raw life force.

This year, I decided to support the diamonds between a man and a woman!
RAJA Lovers Retreat is the setting, the temple, for such support.

Much love and gratitude,
Pema

Where is Here & Now?

Where is Here & Now?

Weird question isn’t it!

The intellectual answer is easy: Here and now is in the present moment!
But we cannot fool ourselves too long with intellectual gibberish!
We are honest enough to admit that we know where is the here and now but oddly enough we can’t find it.
How interesting and funny is this!
I guess all the ones that did and do find it are compassionately laughing loud at our ignorance!
Hopefully you can laugh too!
Let’s not make a drama of our situation. Better find the most beautiful way to finally rest into the Here and Now.
I did try many ways coming from various traditions.
I found Tantra to be the most straight forward invitation into the Here and Now.
Tantra doesn’t use doctrine, dogma, nor condemnation or priesting, not even teaching.
Tantra invites through sharing crazy wisdom!
It seduces us gently, lovingly, gracefully into the Here and Now
through meditation methods centering us to our closest reality which is our body.
The magic trick here is: the body cannot be in the future neither in the past.
It can only be Here and Now!
If we fully center ourselves into the body we finally land into Here & Now.
New dimensions of reality open up.
Dimensions that are no more ruled by past and future, which means not ruled by mind, by division.
We enter our everlasting presence, our eternal being right there at the center of the Heart!
Tantra has very clear steps! It doesn’t go round with complicated ways. It jumps straight into the essential!
The body is the stepping “stone” for entering the Heart of the Here & Now!
 

Would you like to take the jump?
Would you like to enter the Here & Now? Your presence, your essence, your home…

Hmmm… I take your silence as a Yes!!!
 
Join us this year for some graceful adventures into the Here & Now!
We still have some places available for the Silent Orgasm Retreat starting end of March and two places for our precious Couple retreat in May, and for daring women, we have the Matka retreat in September.
 

Check our program here!

 
See you soon in the Here & Now!

With love and gratitude,

Pema

2023 Be Responsible!

Don’t lie.

Don’t steal.

Don’t kill.

 

Many traditions and religions share these rules.
Ancient Egyptians hoped that after death, they would live for eternity in the Field of the Reeds, the Egyptian’s afterlife paradise. To go there they had to go through a series of test in the underworld. The most important of these tests took place in the hall of judgement before Osiris, God of the death and resurrection. To get to paradise, the person had to stand in front of 42 judges and swear that they had not committed certain sins such as “I didn’t lie, I didn’t steal, I didn’t kill.” After that came the weighing of the heart, where the person’s heart was weighed against the feather of truth and justice. If the heart was heavier than the feather, it would be eaten by a crocodile-headed demon and the person was lost forever. But if the heart and the feather were in balance, the person was declared “true of voice” and the journey to the Field of Reeds could begin.

Would you enter the Field of Reeds?

When I heard this story, I couldn’t sleep a whole night. I was just wondering if I would enter the Field of the Reeds and who would? I quickly came to the conclusion that I would definitely not enter there. I did lie, I did steal and I did kill many mosquitoes.
So who would enter the Field of Reeds?
Who has never lied, never stolen and never killed?
Can you show me this person please?

We lie constantly; out of arrogance, out of pride, but mostly out of ignorance. We are so much pretending to be somebody we are not. To my point of view this stands as a lie. As long as we are moving around with masks we are lying.
We steal attention from each other out of neediness and loneliness. The selfie generation is full of thieves! We steal energy from each other out of weakness. We are all thieves in a subtle or rude way.
As for killing it is inevitable. While you have your morning walk in the forest how many ants are killed under your steps? Yes, I take it to the depths! It is not just about killing a human, no?
I am convinced that on this human plane, nobody can enter the Field of Reeds. Even a Buddha would not make it there!

 

Take responsibility for your actions, your thoughts, your emotions, your words. 
Well that’s it! If we could start from being responsible, I guess we would not need an afterlife paradise. We would create it right here on this planet!
In taking responsibility, we become more conscious, more loving, more caring. This way lying, stealing becomes very difficult. As for killing, like I mentioned above, it is inevitable, but at least by being responsible we would minimise our killing to just the inevitable!

 

For 2023 all I wish to us is that we take responsibility for our actions, our thoughts, our emotions, our words.
And this way start a new way of living, creating on this amazing beautiful planet Earth!

 

With love and gratitude,

Pema

It is Time to Travel!

It is a unique opportunity to unfold your ability to enter the space of Hridaya, the Supreme Heart where everything is Consciousness…
Read more…

 

RAJA Ritual unfolds different aspects of the lovers’ intimacy such as sexuality, conscious relating, devotion, creativity… It opens their energies, bodies, and understanding to new levels of sensuality, bliss and deep togetherness. The Ritual reveals and expands the divine resources as much as the orgasmic flow in the lovers, thus creating the possibility of a meeting beyond ego and personality where only love and consciousness remain to be experienced.

 

I wish you all well and I wish you all to find the force to awaken!
