An Introduction to Love, Body, Mind and Soul

The ideas for this website have sprouted from the wish to create an on-line presence for the services that I offer to the tantric community - and those curious about tantra -  in the Western Cape area in South Africa, close to the wonderful city of Cape Town.

This introduction to the website will help new visitors to learn what it's all about: It provides a summary of the offerings I facilitate in the realm of Tantra and related modalities, with links to navigate further.

Tantric Experiences

Tantra is as much a mindful and conscious way of living your life as it is a path towards expressing your energy, including your sexual energy. On the one hand the tantric lifestyle fosters a sense of awareness, presence, during day to day tasks, and on the other hand having control over the most powerful source of life-energy - namely sexual energy, a resource we all have - gives you the power to rise above what appears to be the bluntness of living an average or dull life. When given the chance to look a tantrika in the eye and observe that tantric sparkle, you will get an inkling of what there is to discover...

The history of tantra is long and diverse and I encourage newcomers to read about that in the blog-post I wrote on that topic, click here> (the links on this page open in a new tab).

Please examine the following Tantric offerings, all of which take place in the form of individual and private sessions (as opposed to events):

  • Tantric energy massage for individuals - A kind of tantric massage that intends to awaken the sexual energy that lies dormant in most people. A combination of invigorating and relaxing experiences in a comfortable setting. Usually done on the naked or lightly covered body. Link>

  • Kashmiri massage for individuals and couples - A type of body-to-body massage, unlike any other. Not primarily with sexual intent, but usually done in the nude, both for the client and the practitioner. Here we have the option to experience the massage as a client, but also to receive instruction. The latter is especially meaningful in a setting for couples, where both learn from the practitioner.

  • Conscious touch - A very tantric way for people to interact is by conscious touch. This is a private feel-good offering, intended for those who love to be touched mindfully, pleasurably, lovingly. And for those who enjoy their partners or companions to feel these sensations, by returning the favour. There are various options for the nature of the touch and the participants in the offering, all guided by the practitioner. Link>​

Events: Naked Poetry

Naked Poetry evenings are organised a few times per year and have proven to be quite successful as a means towards gatherings of like-minded people, motivated by the idea of enjoying the art of poetry, while wearing only minimal, or no clothing. This fits into the tantric teachings of being fully present and comfortable within your own skin and in the company of souls who share that feeling. Naturally, given society's prevalent judgements on nudity, this may require a personal boundary to be negotiated, to step above those judgements. That may be difficult for some, but experience has shown that, even without peer-pressure, in the end most people have no issues with it.

People are encouraged to bring their own poems to recite, or to read poems from their favourite poets. Examples of these are available in the category of 'Poetry' in the blog on this site. here> 

The Naked Poetry evenings are organised in comfortable home-surroundings, with good-natured conversations and laughter.

Blog

As a way too convey insights in the form of longer texts, this website incorporates a blog. There's no real alternative for getting ideas across that take more than a few lines of text. Not even podcasts can match the clarity and traceability of written and printable text. 

The blog-posts that I write cover tantra, but also poetry and my former profession: science, technology and astronomy.

You will find the posts here>.

I assigned a few categories to the posts that allow one to make a selection. These categories are:

  • LBMS - Love, Body, Mind, Soul and Tantra and services.

  • Poetry - Some of the poems recited at Naked Poetry events.

  • Science in the modern world - Insights intending to clarify concepts in science and how that relates to pseudo-science in society.

  • Misc - Other topics.
