So. You Think You're a Warrior. Part II

So. You think you’re a Warrior?
Part II

In Part I, I provided some historical and legendary background to what it means to be a Warrior. In Part II, I go more into depth about what it means to be a Tāntric Warrior. In order to have a better understanding of what I mean when I describe a tantric man to be a Warrior, you need to be familiar with a couple of tāntric concepts that form the basis of the homoerotic tāntric typologies of men.

In the Sanātanadharma (सनातनधर्म) doctrine of the guṇa‑s , the brāhmaṇatā (ब्राह्मणता) (priest caste) corresponds to the sattva (सत्त्व), or equipoise, balance harmony, goodness or virtuousness, while the Warrior (kṣatriya (क्षत्रिय)) or hero (vīra (वीर)) is identified with the neutral quality of rajas (रजस्),  or passions,  and all other guṇa‑s people are included under the influence of tamas (तमस्)  , or base instincts.  There is an underlying logic for the association of a guṇa to a particular caste or category of men: the sattva is the quality, which prepares the sādhaka for transcendence and higher states of being, while the tamas is the guṇa which is inclined to lower instincts. In other words, we can say that sattva is the quality, which characterizes higher subtle energies and spirituality, while tamas is the guna, which characterizes the base or lower subtle energies, and spirituality. It should be clear to the reader that when I use terms as "higher" or similar terms, I mean positive or creative principles. In contrast, when I use "base" or similar terms, I mean a more negative or inactive or even destructive principle.



This second part of the two-part article goes into detail about the Homoerotic Tantric Warrior type of man; what he is and what he isn't. It's a must-read for any man who want's to realize his true masculine spirit.

 Fatal Traps for the Gullible and the Ignorant Beware of the Fake Gurus The first and guiding principle of Buddhism, Hinduism, Tantra, Jainism and any of the children of Sanatanadharma would have to be  ahiṃsā (अहिंसा), the ethical principle of non-violence, do no harm to any creature by action or inaction. A second very important principle is that of  asteya (अस्तेय), the principle of not taking what is not your due. Just as  ahiṃsā  can be done by action or non-action, taking from another under deceitful or false pretenses is considered a form of theft. It's clear that when someone offers a product or service, he must warrant his good faith and integrity, if he is to be trusted. One way we do that is to provide clear and verifiable credentials for the service he offers. Another is to be honest about what skills he has and how they are valuable. Yet another is not to offer a product or service that has the potential to harm or injure another person who reasona...

Who is "lama" Jigme Gyatso "rinpoche"?

  Who is Jigme Gyatso? 2610 W Clark Ave, Suite A Burbank, California, 91505 United States My fraud sensors go off almost immediately if I sense a presenter or a self-proclaimed spiritual guide is a bit too enthusiastic or is trying a bit too hard to impress. The question then arises of “Where is humility in all of this?” or “Where is the sublime peace?” Usually both are missing as the showman continues his circus act.

The changes are based on recent experience and on what I have learned over the past couple of years about how homoerotic men learn, and about how I teach. It’s all positive and all beneficial. “Take the Best and Leave the Rest!”  I created that slogan to guide myself and also to serve as a reminder to my disciples. Like a Zen koan, it means much more than the sum of its parts, and will reveal its meaning in all three aspects of a man as well as in his personal and social life. I has also some application to the Homoerotic Tantra ℠ :Mascul-IN-Touch ℠ program and to ...
