Great for novices of Tantric. .......2007-10-02

I didn't really have a clue about Tantric sex and was always intrigued. What happens and how do you actually do it? Well, this great book answered all these questions. It gave me a good, solid foundation about tantric and also about how to please a woman. I highly recommended this read. I also liked and woudl recommend: Sex Machine: A Man's Guide to What Really Pleases a Woman in Bed.

great information.......2007-07-01

The various media put out so much "bad" information w.r.t sexuality and relationships. As a teacher it breaks my heart to see our kids respond to all the bad roll models that are forever in the news. This book is a wonderful presentation of good information for "mature adult" relationships. It's a handbook for men on how to communicate the love they feel to the woman in their life. As a woman I was literally dumbfounded that this Australian man could write so clearly and concisely about my fears, desires and experiences. And he had information for my partner on how to lovingly support me both in and out of the bedroom. I encourage reading this as a couple. As a Mom of two adult children and a teen, I feel the best I can do as a parent is to share good information which will hopefully lead to good decisions. I fully intend to share this with my son in anticipation of his wedding, with my daughter to help her clarify what she wants in a relationship and likewise with my teen as he moves into adulthood.
I am basically an over 50 conservative girl-next-door. I am not comfortable with the "selling of sex" that can be associated with some of the tantric literature and media. But I honestly believe that everyone should consider at least the first 4 chapters of this book. I can't help wondering how different all of our lives would have been if our fathers had had this information.

the best Tantra book out there for men.......2004-03-29

The best book, period, for men who want to learn the essence of Tantra without all the attached Eastern mysticism. The techniques and their benefits are broken down into simple, easy to read steps and significance. I found this a great addition to "The Multi-Orgasmic Man." Whether you're looking to last longer in bed, bring more pleasure to your partner, and bring a heightened sense of love and spirituality to your relationship, I found this helpful for all of these things.

Tantra 101.......2006-03-03

This book is easy to follow and gets you started in the tantric practice easily. The content is sequenced in a way that flows, and actually makes it easy to follow through the learning stages. Dr. Judy doesn't leave out the spiritual part, neither does she overwhelm you with it, as I've seen in other Tantra books that are a bit "hippie" and over the top. Spirituality is very much a part of this book, though understated.

I was pleasantly surprised to find a Tantra book by Dr. Judy - I have been a fan of hers since the '90s when she was on Love Phones. I had no idea she had any knowledge of Tantra. I love the way she breaks down the concepts - easy to digest for the greenest of novices, but with enough interesting content to feed the more knowledgable readers. Kudos to Dr. Judy for bringing Tantra to mainstream America :)
----------------------------------------------------
Re: the guy complaining that this is not "real" Tantra: this books is meant to bring Tantra to the mainstream, not to get devotees to an ashram. Keeping that in mind, it fulfills its purpose.

As for the poorly-written, one-star reviews above, please note: the purpose of writing a review is for (guess what??) THE BOOK. That's why the guidelines say "Your review should focus on the book's content and context." You should not be reviewing Amazon's technical flaws or Dr. Judy's perceived character flaws here. Unfortunately reviews such as these lower the avg rating of books that deserve better, and all for nothing because they arent' even about the content. (My 2 cents)

Woman is a phony.......2005-10-02

This is a not a review of the book. I met this woman over 20 years ago, just about when she was looking to break into radio talk. She struck me as someone solely interested in making a name for herself, with the least interest in the people she was advising. It is sad to see, people like this whose careers are the all encompassing monsters in their lives. It's all about money and fame, and this lady wants them both. I could be wrong. Who knows.

This Is Not Tantra, It's A Distorted View, Dysfunctional.......2004-04-20

People like Judy Kuriansky, Margot Anand and all the various fakers who claim some affinity for Tantra have distorted it totally........Why??? Because books and schools that teach SEX make alot of money.

They have taken something beautiful and turned it into trash. I know, I studied the same distorted teachings before I found out how off the mark it was. These people manipulate lonely people for money.

Tantra is a path to walk, not about sexuality, except about uniting the male-female within, or the yin-yang, dark-light, etc.
It's about becoming a whole person and none of these people do anything but distort Tantra to make money off it selling SEX!!

I'm sure the book is wonderful, but..........2004-02-08

I didn't actually recieve it. This is a warning to those tempted to download the e-book version: DON'T. Well, until Amazon customer service staff actually have the basic human decency to reply to my emails (replies are 'usually made within 24 hours'. I don't think so. I'm slowly approaching my 144th. And I've sent three. And no, my email account doesn't filter communications from Amazon. I checked by setting up an events reminder service. Oh well, it's given me time to report it to IntelliSeek/Planet Feedback. I'm sure this won't be published on the site, and I'm sorry to those people who deal with editing customer reviews - it's not your fault. However, why should I have to resort to this to be heard? A prominent and available customer service number at the top of every page (and numbers international customers can dial) would not go astray.

Lets start here.......2003-05-09

If you are on this page and intend to buy this book it means that either you already know some things about tantra (in this case I suggest you to discover deeper meanings of tantric love by reading other books) or you want to make a change in your life and bring something new and meaningful. If this is the case, I think you are in the right place.

This book is written in a very clear, detailed and simple manner, so that everyone will understand what 'tantric sex' implies and what it means to live blissfully. You will learn about the different needs you and your partner have and know how to satisfy them. You will be given ideas and tips about how to improve communication and how to make your relationship grow and become 'one' with your partner.

You will find out that sex comes first from the heart and not from our hormones. It will make you realise that sexuality and spirituality are linked.

I am sure it will change your life for the better and it will be a good thing in your relationship. Reading this book will make you become more interested in this field and willing to discover new valences of what 'sex' can be.

If you are looking for a new perspective on sex I highly recommend this book as your intro to Tantric Sex.......2007-04-22

While browsing for books on alternative personal and environmental energetics, this book jumped off the bookstore shelf at me. I wasn't looking for a tantric sex introduction but after scanning it I knew there was something I was meant to learn from it. This book is valuable on 2 levels. On an personal and emotional level it simply describes the benefits of mindful conjoining and the tools to remain in the present moment, all of which has the ability to extend the conjoining experience by hours. As an energetic consultant practitioner I appreciated the physiological principles and descriptions throughout the book which were verified to be all true after following the guidelines. My approach has been changed forever. Anyone I discuss it with appears to be naturally drawn to the concept as well. It also discusses sexual dysfunction which makes alot of sense.

Some tantra guides seem very clinical. They just lay out the dance steps in little rubber footprints on the floor. This author really feels like she's speaking from a very deep personal journey. She shares her heart and soul as well as her intimate knowledge of how bodies work. I appreciated the many specific insights she offered, both technical and emotional. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to put the principles of tantra into practice and succeed.

Contrary to the first review of "bland models" --they actually emit very gentle sensual chi--this book is well done, tasteful, beautifully photgraphed, very well informing and a must for anyone who truly wants a wonderful sexual union which is spiritually based and will take the initiate into the old ways of Soulfully connecting with a loving partner...I am now buying more for friends. Brava to the author.
Jeanne ELizabeth Blum: Author, Woman Heal Thyself

Tantra Lite.......1999-01-14

One of the few titles on this subject I could find that included photographs, but very disappointing. The models are bland and distant-looking; they don't seem spiritually or sexually involved. And the text was so light-weight, I have gotten better, more complete information from articles. Perhaps enough for someone who wants a taste of the exotic, but not challenging enough intellectually or spiritually.

Incredibly helpful book.......1998-01-30

This book is wonderful because it works to channel energy from the immediate experience into a prolonged, full body sacrament of love. The Tantrikas knew what they were talking about when they included all five senses, meditation. exercises, etc. The first time my husband and I applied these techniques, it was the most profound lovemaking night of our lives (8 is great!).

If you're short of time but looking for some divine inspiration, this book is for you. Snappy, two-page write-ups describe each of 50 techniques guaranteed to stir up some heat in the bedroom department. Adding to the lessons are some very funky illustrations by Sarah Young. Yummy! A word of warning, though: Although this would make a GREAT Valentine's gift for longtime couples, a new partner might find some of it a little on the kinky side. Then again, why not give them a copy and find out?

The old saw in Buddhism is that desire is the noxious weed that keeps us lurching from one unsatisfactory pleasure to the next, and that uprooting it is the only way to liberation. Daniel Odier, a scholar and teacher of tantra, turns this wisdom on its head in Desire: The Tantric Path to Awakening, saying that desire is the only true path to liberation. Odier objects to any religion that pretends to offer liberation in any form other than simple, personal experience. Stemming from the Tibetan master Kalu Rinpoche and the Kashmiri Shaivite yogini Lalita Devi, Odier's tantrism focuses on "micropractices," conscious withdrawal from habitual activities for just a few seconds several times a day. The crux is to attain consciousness, presence--and beyond this, there is no goal. For when there is eventually presence in every activity, the luminosity of existence pervades everything. At this point, the smallest things give pleasure. Gross desires fall away, to be replaced by spontaneous desires arising in a life of grace and joy. Odier's Desire is a challenge and a pleasure to all who feel constricted by ordinary religious practice. --Brian Bruya

Book Description

â€¢ Explains how the primal energy generated by physical desire can be used to achieve enlightenment

â€¢ Reveals the techniques used by Tantric adepts to attain mastery over breath, thought, and all physical processes

Nothing can match the explosive energy created in the body by pure desire. For millennia, Tantric adepts have harnessed this force as a means of attaining the summits of the mystical life. The energies fueled by passion are used to nourish the inner flame that burns away the egotistical perception of the mind.

Desire explores the subtle techniques of Tantra that enable the seeker to attain the triple mastery of the breath, thought, and the natural processes of the body. Tantrics believe that the body is the temple and divinity lies at its heart. In order to arrive at profound awareness, the body needs to be perfectly tuned and working toward a state of perfect fluidity. Desire reveals many of the secret practices intended for this purpose that have been passed down in the major Tantric treatises such as the Vijnanabhariva Tantra and Ch'an master Chinul's treatise on the Secrets of Cultivating the Mind, including the important techniques of the ritual sexual observances known as Maithuna.

Customer Reviews:

open to the "luminosity of existence".......2006-04-27

According to almost all the great world religions including Buddhism, desire is an enemy blocking the path to enlightenment. Contrary to this, Daniel Odier maintains that desire is the only true path to liberation. According to Odier, the primary requirement for a spiritual seeker to fully awaken is simple, direct, personal experience. He refers to his disciplined approach as "micropractices" involving the conscious withdrawal from habitual activities for just a few seconds several times a day. There is no goal in this practice, no seeking to get somewhere or accomplish something, but rather the purpose is simply to be fully aware, fully awake, and fully present to your own divinity in the now moment. Odier describes his Tantric path as "nothing spectacular...lack[ing] in the exotic, the magickal, the extraordinary....there was no ritual other than to breathe, walk, bathe... to look at the earth, the lichens, the trees, the leaves, common objects; to enter deeply into contact with life, reality." He suggests that the "luminosity of existence" pervades everything including you. Odier received direct personal Tantric initiation from a Kashmiri Shaivite yogini, Lalita Devi, in the Tantric lineage of the Tibetan master Kalu Rinpoche which dates back several thousand years.

Wholistic Tantra.......2006-03-06

The best thing about this book, for me, is its easy-to-understand (if not always easy-to-practice) wholistic view of Tantric practice. Tantric practice is NOT just about sex -- it's about falling in love with the whole universe on a much subtler level, if I may put it into my own words. Odier mixes chapters that give solid, Western-life examples of new ways to look at the world with chapters on readings from ancient texts. Frankly, the latter are mostly over my head, but the book is engaging enough that I plan to come back to those chapters I didn't "get" on first reading and try again. My two minor quibbles are that the book seems somewhat disorganized, and perhaps related, Odier spends part of the book talking about how Tantric practice is not really or only about sex and part of the book describing the sexual aspects -- with the transition between the two being mostly buried in one of those more mystical chapters. That being said, I am impressed with how accessible AND useful the teachings were, especially the modern-life illustrations of everyday non-sexual Tantric practice.

An excellent book.......2005-12-28

If you are interested in learning about tantra, this is an excellent starting point. Written by a professor from the University of California, he describes how he was initiated by Devï. Of course, tantra is still a very exotic form of meditation and considered as a very unusual sexual technique. Odier describes how he learned the technique and what effects it had on him. More important he illustrates how sex can become a way of opening up your mind. After you have read it, you'll want to learn it, but you'll see how the sex you've had so far is nothing comparedd to what awaits you with tantra. At the same time, it is not a guide, but rather an account of Odier's personal experience. Being a university professor of the Western world, this books makes it the more interesting as his description is what we would probably say as well. I definately recommed you to read it!

Book Description

A revolutionary approach to female sexuality that focuses on relaxation as the key to achieving deep orgasmic states

â€¢ Explores how receptive feminine energy influences the male-female exchange

â€¢ Reevaluates the role of the clitoris, breasts, and vagina in achieving orgasm

â€¢ Provides ancient tantric meditations for increased sensitivity and awareness

Fulfilling sex nourishes love, rejuvenates the body, and boosts mental health. Unfortunately, prevailing attitudes in the West work against the natural capacity of women to realize their sexual potential and experience deep orgasmic states. Tantric Orgasm for Women offers women a fresh look at the ecstatic bliss possible within their bodies, using knowledge and approaches from the sensually cultivated traditions of the East.

Exploring Tantra from the female perspective, Diana Richardson reveals the critical role receptive feminine energy plays in allowing orgasmic states to arise. Her 20 years of tantric research and personal experience provide readers with an understanding of how the various parts of the female body may be activated to deepen ecstatic states. Readers will learn how to re-circulate orgasmic energy; why breast stimulation takes priority over vaginal attention; the difference between soft penetration and deep sustained penetration, including how to avoid premature male ejaculation; and how women can strengthen the erection response of male partners. Tantric Orgasm for Women shows how women can exert a powerful influence on their sexual experiences when they understand the inner workings of their bodies and when they avoid adopting conventional ideas about what should be satisfying to them.

Customer Reviews:

Valley orgasm - YES!.......2006-04-27

Excellent presentation of information about the polarity of the different chakras and the role of breasts in the female orgasmic response. The best discussion we have seen of the experience of a valley orgasm. She explains how to relax into a whole-body orgasm rather than achieving it as a goal.

Very insightful, both from Male & Female prespective.......2004-09-08

We've just started our quest on this path, and found the insights given in this book to be helpful. There are some books out there focused on the Hindu foundation, and others on titilation, but this seems to connect in a practical western manner. Tantra is a process for sharing a deeper connection, and this book gives the proper context for that. This is not a primer on how to try "new" positions, etc.

Book Description

In the fast-paced world of today, couples struggle to find time and energy for sex amidst work, kids, friends, family, as well as all other life responsibilities and commitments. And in general, slow, sensual lovemaking is one element of life to be put on hold when so little time exists. However, what makes love and sex luxurious is taking the time to slow down and really enjoy it. When you can immerse yourself completely into the experience of either giving or receiving, time ceases, trust increases, intimacy deepens, and you reprogram the way you imagine, breathe, gaze, move, taste, touch, and connect. Luxurious Loving teaches couples new, fun, and exiting ways to reincorporate erotic and sensual techniques to their lovemaking sessions. Examining ancient sexual practices and philosophies, such as Tantra and the Kama Sutra, as well as modern sexual conventions, Luxurious Loving instructs readers on how to explore each other's bodies through sensual head-to-toe touching, kissing, erotic massage, oral sex, masturbation, and numerous other playful turn-ons. Artistic, full-color photography will be featured throughout. This book will inflame passion and s-l-o-w down your sex while ultimately extending your pleasure.

"Barbara Carrellas is my favorite sex educator on the planet. She's classy, sassy and wise with vast sexual experience. In Luxurious Loving, Barbara graciously shares her expertise in the most delightful ways. I'm crazy about this book: It's full of superb information; it's great fun and it's sexy, sexy, sexy. Guaranteed to enhance absolutely anyone's sex life." Annie Sprinkle, Ph.D. - Sex worker turned sexologist, and author of Dr. Sprinkle's Spectacular Sex-Make Over Your Love Life.

Herotica at its finest!.......2006-10-29

This is not your mother's how-to book but rather, a delicious slice of sensuality wrapped in the kind of intimate intelligence rarely available in this milieu. I would recommend this highly entertaining, brilliant book to anyone with a sex life or those hoping to have one. It left me breathless. And I mean that in a good way.

The most sensuous read I've had in a long time!.......2006-10-29

What a delicious book! Luxurious Loving is scrumptious offering of sensuality, sexuality and technique. There is a visual aesthetic throughout the book that is a pleasure to behold. The photographs are stunningly beautiful and elegantly erotic, so much so, that they leave me wanting more. Barbara Carrellas obviously knows what she's talking about and she certainly knows how to paint a picture with words.
Luxurious Loving encourages us to artfully engage, creatively explore and joyfully celebrate the sexual experience and Ms. Carrellas shows us how. With Barbara, having sex becomes a discovery, an ongoing journey into your sexual soul and your primal longing to touch, cradle, caress, connect and merge. This book reminds me that beauty and sensuality are inherent in all of us and just reading it is a sensual experience.

Book Description

Sometimes it can be difficult for even the closest of partners to fully express their love during sex. We may resist deeper intimacy for many reasons, among them pain, insecurity, or simply a fear of sharing our most natural desire for physical love with another person. Tantra can help you dissolve these barriers to intimacy, and invites you to awaken the physical and spiritual energy that can bring partners together as loving soul mates.

Tantric Love unlocks the secret powers of meditation, breathing, massage, and more to help you celebrate and revitalize your love life. Each chapter focuses on one of the chakras -- or energy centers -- in the body and offers simple exercises that will help you share this energy and open the door to ecstasy.

Discover new ways of pleasing your partner
Enjoy sexual satisfaction through and beyond orgasm
Learn how to open up to your partner -- both in and out of the bedroom

As you move from one stage to the next, you'll find that you're not only connecting with your lover on a physical level but on a deep spiritual level, too -- one that prepares you for a loving, lasting commitment to each other.

Right on, man!.......2004-12-23

Some folks, those of the "more asian than thou" clan, have said that this book (in a nutshell) isn't "authentic" enough. This basically means that the book is too lucid and simple! These folks only put thier "seal of approval" on texts which make heavy use of Sanskrit, Tibetan, and Chinese terms, and delineate practices only through the spectrum of 5,000 year old Sutras. This is unfortunate, because this book is an excellent introduction to Tantra and the spiritual dimension of lovemaking.

I recommend this book for those of you who might be at an impasse with your spouse or might otherwise be struggling with your spirituality. Those who are "hung up" about sex might also find liberation in the book. My advice is to BUYU it, and make up your own mind.

For consenting adults only!

Terminology of eastern spritiual mysticism -- does it help?.......2004-12-16

One of the problems with well-meaning authors and reviewers alike who fill their thoughts with eastern spiritual terminology is that these concepts are necessarily personal and are, as a result, vague to meaningless when written to the general public. The authors speak as though it were obvious to everyone what is meant by such phrases as "White Sexual Magic", "the secret golden thread" (if it's a secret, how are they talking about it as though everyone knew the contents of that "secret"?), "Kundalini energy", etc... The end result is that it appears these authors want us to learn a whole different way of looking at the world, new concepts, and embrace a new terminology before we can even begin to understand how to engage in fantastic love-making. Rather than truly enlightening people, the insistence on using vague terms and encasing the whole thing in eastern mystical spirituality does more to confuse people and make the whole thing generally impractical.
Yes, love-making is so much more than the sexual act, but it doesn't help to start off by telling everyone how they've been led astray by western values and how the "eastern sages" really know best.

Excellent Choice for Begginers.......2002-10-01

As an avid Tantra reader and follower of Eastern philosophies I was delightfully surprised by the quality of the illustrations, pictures and approach to Tantra in this book. It is a must have for anyone remotely interested in this fantastic Art.

Tantra for everybody!.......2002-03-25

Excellent book, it's very clear and helpful. It's not only a book about sex, it's about life and its connection with the universe. If you like Tantra you should buy this book, you'll like it.

This book has much hidden depth and we found profound meditations.

We are a couple who married for the "wrong" reasons after knowing each other 3 weeks and now 4 years later have a son and a respectful and loving relationship. Tantra and recently this book have allowed love and a deep connection between us to flourish.

Book Description

Using an inclusive, empowering approach, this book explains how every woman — lesbian, bisexual, heterosexual, or solo — can add relish to sexual encounters and increase her pleasure through tantric methods. In a warm, knowledgeable tone, Christa Schulte explains the basics of tantric sex, including how to become more body-aware, how to cultivate pleasure using all five senses, and how to practice "Tara-tantra," a woman-centered tantric method of her own creation.

The book includes 20 helpful introductory solo exercises, exercises for couples, transformation rituals, love games, meditations, and massage techniques, and covers numerous practical strategies for helping women enhance their sensitivity, remove barriers to fulfilling experiences, and explore the spiritual dimension of their sexuality. Not only does Tantric Sex for Women show its readers how to expand and enhance sexual gratification, it promotes an attitude of remaining open to the many ecstasies of everyday life.

A book about self love and empowerment.......2006-05-06

This book is about so much more than what is implied by the title. This is a highly spiritual book that encourages women to cast off the shame that has blanketed them for too long in our patriarchal societies, explore their own beautiful bodies, and to love themselves.
