The Mantantra Letters

The Mantantra Letters

Nathan James
4.6/5 ( ratings)
Philosophy or Pornography?

Two radical thinkers tackle the fundamental problems of passion between men and its relationship to spirituality. In a vibrant, erudite, and candid correspondence that spans the 1990s, these two old friends from Oxford explore how the ancient mysticism of Tantra can work in todays world to bring about the transformation of sexual ecstasy into Self-realization. The writers are equally passionate about shadowy issues that are largely disowned by the mainstream and the gay community: sexual compulsion, self-condemnation, perversion, addiction, self-destruction, jealousy, and possessiveness. Drawing on their own raw personal experience and intense reflection, they use the philosophy and practice of Tantra to probe these enigmas and discover the highest purposes of their sexuality.


a revolutionary book . a must read for anyone, man AND woman, interested in spiritual awakening through the conscious cultivation of sexual ecstasy.--Margot Anand, The Art of Sexual Ecstasy





VICTOR BLISS is an American who studied Comparative Religion and Philosophy
at Harvard, Oxford, and the Sorbonne, and Psychotherapy at the Jung Institute
in Zurich. Since 1965 he has studied and practiced Tantra under several
masters in India and the West. Based in California, he has a private
practice, teaches seminars and leads workshops in America, Europe, and Asia.
Victor Bliss has long been a philosophical critic of the anti-sexual
prejudice of the Christian tradition. In view of the recent pedophilia
crises in the Catholic Church, Bliss is active in initiating a new kind of
critique and dialogue about spirituality and sexuality in the Christian
tradition.
