Who's Who in Tantra, NYC

Last night was a historical event in NYC when Charles Muir, grandfather of Western Tantra met face-to-face with Mantak Chia, Taoist sexual energy cultivator at CoSM, the home studio of Alex and Alison Grey - artists extra-ordinaire. It was a wonderful event hosted by Alan Steinfeld and Sharon Smith.

What I loved was that these two awesome men agreed about almost everything down the line. Most people love to see a fight, a face off and disagreement - competition at its best, but no conflict was to be seen at last evening's event. Their styles were extremely different, but they said the same things: cultivate your sexual energy, MEN - learn how to do it and then do it! People can learn to make love correctly and expand their capacity for pleasure leading to amazing sacred sex and connection.

Charles was often funny, very entertaining. Mantak, more serious and limited by a bit of language barrier shared Taoist practices from the moment he began speaking.

I was certainly glad I went and witnessed it all.

Did I learn a lot? No. Was I glad I went? Yes.

I loved that I saw people I haven't seen in a long time. It was a virtual who's who of Tantra - just fabulous.

In the next few days I'll try to post a photo.
