Was ist klassisches Tantra?

Klassisches Tantra bezeichnet eine spirituelle Bewegung, die zwischen dem 3. und 12. Jahrhundert auf dem indischen Subkontinent entstand. Im Allgemeinen versteht man darunter ein »Praxis-System«, genauer gesagt Bewusstseins-Übungen, die durch die Kultivierung von psychischen und physischen Praktiken das Ziel der verkörperten Befreiung (jīvanmukti) verfolgen.

In unserem alltäglichen Leben bedeutet das die völlige Intimität mit der gesamten Realität, wie sie in Wahrheit ist. Das erfordert, dass wir sämtliche Konzepte, die wir durch die Linse unserer Geschichten, Gedanken, Etiketten und vergangenen Konditionierungen über die Welt haben, hinter uns lassen und so die Realität direkt und unmittelbar erleben.

SEVA COORDINATOR

  • Stuart's role with the Tantrika Institute family is half creation and half curation. He films and edits all the online courses we present to you in our learning portal and he ensures all other media, such as meditation and mantra recordings, satsangs and images all get some very special TI love. He also manages our robust content library; where we sort, categorize and store all TI content.

    Stuart has felt a profound impact on his life from Tantrika's teachings. He says, "They turned my life around. I went from decades of medication and heaviness to a curiosity, awe and wonder, almost overnight." To him, this work doesn’t feel like a job – it feels effortless.

    Stuart grew up in South Africa with a family who loved the bush which meant that he spent virtually every vacation on safari. He became a safari guide before he did his post-graduate degree and lived in the bush for a while. Nature is the quickest way for him to feel connected to spirit.

    Stuart is currently working on a Tantrik Documentary. Learn more about his film.

CONTENT MANAGER 

  • Noora upkeeps the TI learning portal, taking care of video and audio editing, adding content and managing the community.

    She became familiar with Hareesh's work after stumbling upon the book, Tantra Illuminated which changed her life trajectory radically. Having spent most of her life in the digital world, Noora had accumulated various skills that turned out to come in handy as the TI project launched.

DIRECTOR

  • Stuart handles the executive and daily operations of Tantra Illuminated in both the USA and Portugal and is the glue that holds everything together. He has had a unique career path to date ranging from television presenter through tech and commercial real estate advisory.

    After an abrupt experience of a different paradigm, Stuart left everything behind and went on a non-stop journey to find the Truth of who we are. Having spent years on the road in various ashrams and communities, Stuart joined up with Hareesh to form Tantra Illuminated in 2019.

    Stuart is currently working on an independent documentary on Tantra. Learn more about his film.
