So in Tantra I don't have to give up the world?In the view that there really are no opposites, i.e. the non-dualistic thinking as the tantric "uses" it, the differences between the relative world we experience, the "samsara" and the "nirvana", the transcendent world, unavailable. For the practitioner of tantra, it is not about being distant from the world, as it is postulated in other religions, but rather about permanent liberation without actually having to distance yourself from material life. A merger, at the same time a dissolution. Are there no opposites?There is only "Universal Consciousness". Everything that we experience in terms of opposites, that which gives rise to the ominous dynamic of our way of thinking about life, is - how could it be otherwise - pure illusion. This is the ultimate truth to which Tantra Yoga also wants to lead us. Despite the attachment to the material world, it is important to build up an inner sovereignty in thinking. The mind and also the body are embedded in a greater truth that takes away all fear. Do you believe in rebirth in Tantra?In the Indian-Asian religions, reincarnation, combined with the term “karma”, is an essential basis of their spiritual attitude. The chain of these rebirths reflects the ethical quality of our way of life. Escape from this wheel of life is only possible if we allow the energies of enlightenment, liberation, to flow unhindered. In Tantra, one uses the philosophy of the chakras, the life energy, the prana, which is also effective in the rainbow snake, the Kundalini. The seven main chakrasLeaves are assigned to the seven main chakras and, depending on the tradition or school, also colors. We want to refrain from the gods who belong to them. Each of the seven main chakras sees itself in connection with an attribute, which will be discussed in detail later.
