#4.Tantra Yoga: a spiritual system based on universal laws and principles
The set of spiritual laws and principles upon which the Tantra Yoga system laid its foundation is structured in a complex network. These principles mutually support and develop each other, constituting a solid foundation upon which human consciousness is able to expand its state of awakening towards Reality.
Genuine Tantra Yoga will always start from fundamental laws and principles that allow a universal understanding, which remains the same in every age, culture or context. This is the reason why we can find traces of this system in almost all places on Earth, even under different names.
Within the Tantra Yoga system, the practitioner goes from conscious experience to realising the laws and principles that exist beyond these experiences, thus gaining gradual control over all aspects of life. There is no need for blind faith or dogmas because the practitioner of this system will replace them with the unshakeable certitude of experience.
This is the only reason why tantric practitioners eliminate taboos and preconceived ideas: not as a form of spiritual anarchy – as it is often superficially presented – but as a side effect of such an approach to evolution that allows the profound understanding of all laws and principles.
This is the path to freedom and perfection in a systematic and objective way.
#5. Tantra Yoga is a system of gradual transformation through inner alchemy
The spiritual journey in Tantra Yoga can be described as a continuous state of awakening that naturally leads to the expansion of the consciousness though the inner alchemical transformation of all that is inferior.
The Tantra yoga practitioner cultivates the courage to look at each life experience as it is, without trying to adjust it to his own convenience. The essential capacity of being and remaining aware and lucid in the middle of the most intense experiences represents a “philosopher’s stone” that triggers alchemical transformations within, leading to a gradual transformation of the entire character of the practitioner.
The Tantra Yoga system does not look at transformation as the result of privileged circumstances, but as the result of the preparation through gradual, successive transformations.
The aim of the Tantra Yoga system is to become able to gain complete control over our choices, irrespective of exterior conditions. For example, one can be happy in special conditions but the successful practice of the Tantra Yoga system will teach you to be and remain happy in all conditions. And that is possible when we discover that in our true nature we are happy.
This characteristic of the Tantra Yoga system makes it very difficult to formalise it, because alchemical transformation always starts from inside and leads towards the outside. The outer reality is a mere mirror of our inner realisations and the tantric practitioner uses the world only to learn about himself/herself. This is also a deeply moral attitude that would naturally solve most of the moral crises we have in the world today.
