In the "Dharmic view" (if it is seen as singular?) people become like (the way) they think.I'm not familiar with the Dharmic views on that. Interesting.
I’ve read a lot of positive effects from tantra. Thanks for explaining this.In the "Dharmic view" (if it is seen as singular?) people become like (the way) they think.
You can only think one thing at a time and those ideations on your mental plate will cause you to move in a certain direction towards Dharma or away from it.
In the direction of following Dharma you will expand your mind or consciousness and become more free of the limiting effects of your desires and attachments including those shared with animals.
Having sex does not automatically mean that you are going against Dharma, it depends on how you ideate and for men how you control your type of orgasm.
But if you become sort of a slave of your growing desires that is another matter, it will become harder to practise Dharma or it will even make it impossible.
In Tantra it is believed that men lose their vitality through expelling blood or semen and women through their monthly periods.
Men who manage to save it for more than a week are at an advantage because the excess vital force can be used for better health and for spiritual purposes (meditation and higher forms of ideation). That is also why some men who are into fighting sports try to limit their loss of semen as much as possible as that increases their health, concentration power and stamina.
Diet and cleanliness can be a tool in Tantra for limiting sexual arousal and its consequences and (for men) also wearing special tight underwear in combination with removing the foreskin or keeping it in a retracted position.

Unfortunately in the West many people are under the illusion that Tantra has mostly to do with sexual techniques or using sex for spiritual growth. In fact most Tantra is not at all like that, rather it is about practical spirituality free of dogma and religious boundaries. Any path, life style or religion that is practical or effective instead of mainly theoretical can be called tantric. Tantra means to liberate the self from darkness or ignorance.I’ve read a lot of positive effects from tantra..
My spiritual journey has not changed my view on sexuality very much, but it has changed a little, and it changed my life... for the better, I think.Depending on different religions and beliefs surrounding sexuality and sex, one's opinions and experiences regarding sex, can often change.
Some religions make a lot of different sex practices out to be ''sinful,'' while others, don't. Since many of us follow various religions and belief systems, thought I'd start a discussion to see where it all falls.
Actually, there is no reference to that in Song of Solomon... just between a man and a woman within context of how man and women were created.I do feel that it is fine. In the post above this I left a link to the Song of Solomon, I think it mentions these things there.
