- Summary
- "Tantra is usually thought of as sex with some kind of mysticism thrown in. But it actually refers to a multi-faceted wisdom tradition. Marc Allen, who has been practicing for 30+ years, illuminates this ancient tradition and highlights its relevance for modern Westerners. Allen shows how the tantric awareness that embraces everything, rejects nothing, and emphasizes the present moment offers a path to inner peace and fulfillment. The whole of life is addressed - work, money, creativity, food and drink, solitude, meditation, healing and aging, freedom, enlightenment, and, yes, sex and relationships. Allen makes the teachings practical with concrete tools for implementing them and wonderfully vivid with stories from his own life fully lived in the San Francisco Bay Area of the 1960s and 1970s and into the present"--
