Synopsis Tantra like Yoga or Zen, is a path to enlightenment, which has its Roots in India. It is nicknamed the "science of ecstasy" and focuses on heightening and prolonging the special awareness and rapport that exists between lovers during lovemaking. This view holds that the greatest source of energy in the Universe is sexual, and places high value on ritualized intercourse. Sexual orgasm is seen as a cosmic and divine experience. Tantric Philosophy also teaches that everything is to be experienced playfully, yet with awareness and a Sense of sacredness in every gesture, every sensory perception, and every action.
