The Vanya (वन्य) is a junior level with certain restrictions: The vanya (वन्य) must be

• at least 21 years old,
• of demonstrated maturity and commitment, and
• registered full-time in a bona fide institution of higher learning, junior college, or trade school,
• and he must maintain at least a B average or equivalent during his tantric studies.

The vanya (वन्य) may be in a course of study in any discipline whether humanities, arts and science, or vocational. While participating in the sādhana (साधन) of Homoerotic Tantra:Mascul-IN-Touch℠ or Mascul-IN-Timacy℠ he must be prepared to show that his tantric studies do not present an obstacle to his regular secular academic studies.

Depending on the institution, the vanya (वन्य) may be able to arrange independent studies in the psychology of religion, mysticism, theology, men’s health, or LGBT studies at his institution. Daka will be available as a mentor if the vanya (वन्य) wishes to apply his tāntric studies for independent study credits at his institution. All arrangements for such independent study are the responsibility of the student, but Daka will provide a letter of recommendation to the student’s advisor(s).

The Vanya (वन्य) level is a prastāvanā (प्रस्तावना), a Sanskrit word meaning a commencement, introduction. A prastāvanā (प्रस्तावना) can also mean a dramatic prelude, an introductory dialogue, usually spoken by the principal and one of the actors. I feel that this Sanskrit term very aptly describes the nature of the Student Discovery Pass level — the Vanya (वन्य) Level — which offers the inexperienced or beginning seeker the opportunity to expose himself to the full range of Homoerotic Tantra℠ over each of the 16-week cycles, the equivalent of the senior levels I, II, and III.

The Student Discovery Pass Vanya (वन्य) Level will allow the man, as a seeker, to participate in all practices and exercises, and he will receive all sādhana (साधन) modules on a weekly basis, including supplements and my commentaries. In addition, he will have limited personal guidance from Dāka either one-on-one (subject to geographical constraints), by chat, video conference, or by email correspondence.

Before applying for vanya (वन्य) level consideration, the student is encouraged to complete the various self-assessments and diagnostics to evaluate his “tantricity” but these are not required at the vanya (वन्य) or prastāvanā (प्रस्तावना) level of study.

I recommend that you participate in the Homoerotic Tantra℠ 108 Days Reflection & Meditation cycle in addition to the Dao道-Dhārma धर्म meditations provided as part of the Mascul-IN-Touch℠/Mascul-IN-Timacy℠ programs.

The suggested reduced donation of US$ 50 will probably be the best investment you make in your self-care you’ll ever make. You will find that the benefits you will receive are worth many times the monetary investment, and are far more valuable than programs costing much more.

It would be a very ennobling act if a patron/sponsor or senior Vira–Warrior were to sponsor a young man in the program, and pick up his donation.

The vanya (वन्य) or prastāvanā (प्रस्तावना) level is a required first step to the higher levels of Homoerotic Tantra℠ system programs (Levels II and III).

If the student seeker wishes to progress to Level II or Level III, he must complete the vanya (वन्य) level first. He will receive the same discount for the cycles of Levels II and III as long as he can show full-time status and at least a B average.
