Being Touched by Tantra

Recently
we attended the wedding of Wayne and Colette, a beautiful couple who have taken
several of our seminars. For us, a wedding ritual is always an uplifting and
joyous occasion, but what we experienced at this particular wedding was simply
amazing, and it deeply touched our hearts.
When the
bride entered the hall, we were already moved - in her gorgeous lilac gown, she
was even more beautiful than when we had last seen her a few weeks before. Her
betrothed was awaiting her eagerly at the sacred altar they had prepared. Their
ritual began with what they called their "communion ritual" - their
version of entering into sacred space and sacred time as they had learned in
our seminar and practiced many times. The beauty of the ritual that unfolded
was such a profound moment for us both, we cried and cried. In this simple,
powerful and beautiful ritual lay the incredible gift of validation for our
work and our contribution to so many lives. The community of friends and family
that had gathered to bear witness to Colette and
When we
first arrived, we had felt a little out of place, knowing no-one - but the
couples' best friends who had also taken our seminar - and after the ceremony,
we were suddenly part of the community. Colette and Wayne felt comfortable
about us sharing where we had met them—in our Tantra seminar—and many interesting
conversations were had and hearts were opened.
On their
wedding day, Colette and Wayne became a reminder for us of how profound and
simple Tantra is and how it can be integrated into our lives in so many ways.
And we thank them from the bottoms of our hearts for this gift!
Since
that day we have been reflecting on our lives as Tantra teachers. Seeing our work -
our passion - incorporated so beautifully and simply by Wayne and Colette in
their marriage ritual, has great meaning to us. We realized once again that
Tantra includes everything. It is not "just about sex" as the mass
media would like us to believe. Tantra
is a lifestyle, a way of life that begins with acceptance of who we are. Once
we truly accept and love ourselves, we can accept and love each other and
eventually accept and love everything… good things and bad things alike.
We teach
in a way that is fun and profound at the same time. Our seminars include
laughter, tears, dance, intimate moments, personal challenges and playful
resolutions, overflowing hearts and deep connection with ourselves and others.
Our participants take home tools that they can play with immediately after the
seminar to stay on the tantric path that they stepped on in our seminar.
To us,
the spiritual, ecstatic life is not something that we need to strive towards -
it is already here. All we need to do is awakening to that fact and celebrate!
