INTRODUCTION

In this age of kali yug, Sacred and Secret Sciences like Tantra have been abused for commercial purposes with people selling mantras, disregarding adikara and interpreting scriptures to suit their own vested interests.

There are many Gurus who exploit the disciples for fame or money, demand donations for temples and worship and offer Diksha for a donation.

As a fresh wave of change, this is a humble attempt to consolidate the teachings of masters & Scriptures to present Tantra in its pristine purity to sincere seekers

All the paths lead to the same Truth. And that we waste a tremendous amount of valuable time and energy trying to prove that one is "superior" to the other, rather than using that time and energy to practice the path for which we so strongly profess to preferLet each path celebrate its unique beauty and perspective.”

Tantra's Message

The Kaulavali Tantra says that all women should be looked upon as manifestations of Mahadevi (the Great Goddess).The 'Kaulavali Tantra' says, 'One should bow to any female, be she a girl flushed with youth, or be sheold; be she beautiful or ugly; good or wicked. One should never deceive, speak ill of, or do ill to a woman and one should never strike her. All such acts prevent [spiritual] attainment.'"[And for women practitioners,] Tantra believes that first and foremost the Feminine must emerge from the woman herself. She must become aware of what she*really* is, and she must integrate that awareness into the way she views herself and the world, as it becomes part and parcel of her life." Actually, Tantra's message concerns both women and men. Every Tantric Shakti [woman practioner] is, or seeks to become, a *true* woman, one who dares to delve into her own being to discover her inner and ultimate wellsprings. She *is* the goddess - a living, present-day incarnation of the ultimate cosmic energy, although she may be unaware of it. Her true mystery is the mystery of life, that fantastic creative dynamism --which gives rise to atoms and galaxies, makes wheat sprout, makes bacteria proliferate -- is present and active at all times in all women."

The Nila-tantra says that one should desert one's parents, guru, and even the deities before insulting a woman. ..

Says the Shakti sangama Tantra:

"Woman is the creator of the universe,the universe is her form;woman is the foundation of the world,she is the true form of the body.In woman is the form of all things,of all that lives and moves in the world.There is no jewel rarer than woman,no condition superior to that of a woman.No wonder even the most powerful of gods, like Shiva above, crave to enter the feminine form, hoping to acquire at least some of her glorious power".

According to the Devi-Mahatmya:By you this universe is borne,By you this world is created,O Devi, by you it is protected.
