Tantric Sex 19 Lessons to Achieving Ecstasy by Guillermo Ferrara

This is a weighty book, it is hardback with thick pages and lots of colour photos, not really for the faint hearted, I read it in small sections as I found it hard work.

The first paragraph put me off I didn't understand the ideology or language used, but if you persevere you gradually get the hang of it.

The main aim of the book is to express the energy of love through many ways including sex and to desire more from life. There is a lot of waffle in my opinion about immortality, understanding the universe also ancient myths.

There are lots of "tantric sutras", "sutras" mean teachings, they encompase all sorts of sayings and beliefs such as "let the full moon bewitch you" and "call on your Angel" "every man without a woman is a corpse and vice versa".

I had to keep referring to the glossary as I didn't know what the words meant and you couldn't guess eg Kumbhaka means holding your breath!

The author describes several tantric rituals around the full moon, or a central fire bowl, a 12 phase ritual to enhance orgasm involves meditation and dance with oils and massage, a bit long-winded for me.

There are lots of lists and lessons and phases. Lesson 14 has 7 phases to achieve a tantric orgasm using oral sex in 69 position with anal stimulation.

It is not for people who are impatient certainly, that goes against everything in the teachings.
