Recently I had a conversation with a vibrant couple in their early 60ties. Chris and Alice have been married for 42 years, and together for 45. Their harmony and connection was tangible, and I invited them to share with me the secret to their obviously very joyous and long-term relationship.

A quick look… One of my steppi
ng stones on the path of SkyDancing Tantra has been a phrase coined by Margot Anand, “I am responsible for my own pleasure”. From my parents I learned that it was not okay to ask for what I want – sexually or otherwise. In their view, a female who did ask was a “slut”. Hence I grew up with the assumption that whatever my lover had to give, that’s as good as it was going to get.
When I started on the SkyDancing path, I learned that I did not have to limit myself to that conditioning. Through diligent practice and many healing sessions I overcame this early shaming and moved into a responsible relationship with my sexuality, thus creating more fulfilling experiences for myself and my partner in the bedroom, and overall.
The Tantra attitude about sex is that sex is not a need. It is a cosmic experience, it is an experience of meditation. It is an instinctual return to our ultimate reality, one of the highest forms of meditation. In fifteen minutes to an hour or more of uninterrupted coitus, Tantra seeks a complete loss of the ego. Just see the difference. Freud says it is a gratification for the ego. And that’s how it has become, and Freud is not wrong. If you see the modern man, he is right. People go on making love just to prove that they are males or females, or what charming people they are, beautiful people they are. People go on finding new women, new men, just to prove that ‘I am still attractive.’ My observation of people is that they don’t fall in love.
