Sex Education and Tantra

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The main objective of this interdisciplinary study developed on the boundaries of philosophy, religious studies, education sciences, and psychotherapy, is to analyse the relevance of Tantra as a component of sex education in intercultural societies. The benefits and applicability of Tantra are discussed in this article, exploring some essential interrelations between spirituality and sexuality. I propose that intercultural societies can become beneficiated with the incorporation of the knowledge of Tantric traditions into their sex education programs. Particularly, Tantric views regarding sexual and love relationships can be useful to persons and communities all over the world, even remaining faithful to other religions. The incorporation of Tantric ideas and techniques is an alternative to the traditional western educational system, where institutions merely cover sex education in terms of the physiology of conception and the health risks involved, in times when young adult people need guidance on their love and sexual relationships at erotic and spiritual levels. I present the idea that sex education could be inspired by Tantra, offering opportunities of self-knowledge, an ars erotica, and a source of personal growth.
