Well, we’re almost halfway through January and most men who have made any new year resolution have probably shelved them already. Have you ever thought about what keeps you from doing the things you know you should be doing, and how that adversely affects your mental health, your relationships, your self-esteem?

The single major obstacle to anything a man plans to do is his vision of himself. He simply cannot commit to anything unless he knows enough about himself to accept that the commitment will be worthwhile, has meaning, and has value to him as a person and his life trajectory. You may think you are enjoying something only because it’s there and is easy; that’s not enjoyment, it’s just stone dead.

I’m going to ask you to do something: Go to a mirror and ask yourself, “Do I know you?” Chances are, if you’re very honest with yourself, you have to answer, “No. I’d like to know you but you’re as stranger.” That’s a very scary situation when you have a stranger living rent free in our skin!

There are quite a few men whom I classify as seekers; they are seeking, questioning, and on a quest to become who they are, really, whom they are meant to be. These men can be called the “chosen,” because they authentically want to become rather than the many who just sit and wait for being to come to them — and die waiting. What a waste.

Everywhere you look, someone is trying to sell something by “offering a challenge,” and men, because of toxic cultural conditioning, stereotypes, and social scripts, feel they have to take the challenge. Suckers! It’s YOU who should be challenging; you should be challenging everything. Only a warrior will challenge the status quo and rise above the mud and filth to radiance, just as the legendary lotus rises from the bottom mud through the water to emerge purest white, never contaminated by the mud. That is the symbol of the Divine Masculine Spirit we awaken in Homoerotic Yogic Tantra and the Mascul-IN-Touch℠ & Mascul-IN-Timacy℠ programs.

In homoerotic yogic Tantra a man learns how to awaken the Divine Masculine Spirit, he travels the path of self-awareness, and on that path learns surrender, trust, and acceptance of healthy vulnerability. He searches deep within himself to find his soul, his Self, his link to the cosmic. He learns the creativity that is homoerotic. He applies the principles of yogic science and philosophy in his personal and social life. Finally, he practices Tantra (तन्त्र), and through the exercises, practices, and rituals with his Beloved, his Tāntric Lover, he enters a mystical marriage, Divine Union, what we call maithuna (मैथुन). It’s transcendence, a mindset, a lifestyle.

It’s never too late to become to belong, to be longing; it’s the longing that motivates, once a man stops longing to belong and to become, he has stopped living.

So, instead of issuing a worthless challenge, I’m offering you the opportunity to explore and discover your true self. It’s not an easy task and takes a lifetime or what’s left of a lifetime, but it puts that lifetime in a very positive perspective, giving it more meaning, value, and promise.

If you have ever read the statistics on how much time a man spends online, on social media, doing absolutely nothing that actually benefits him, you were probably shocked. Well, you know how much time you actually waste surfing, searching, looking for someone who responds to you or to your online self. Rather than wake up and smell the coffee — the very people, rather the digital algorithms, you are desperately trying to attract — are all doing the same thing! They are reaching out farther and farther from their centers, begging for someone to be aware of them! It’s a desperate and hopeless road to self harm. If you can admit that you are doing the same thing, you need to do better for yourself.

Give it a try. There are no obligations during the introductory week or two; actually, there are no ‘obligations’ to anyone but yourself. Give yourself two weeks to explore Homoerotic Yogic Tantra. Over those two weeks you’ll do a couple of self-assessments to get some idea of where you are in terms of self-awareness and whether you will benefit from Homoerotic Yogic Tantra and Mascul-IN-Touch℠ & Mascul-IN-Timacy℠. The self-assessments are meant only for your eyes, so you don’t have to worry about sharing anything deeply personal; later, if and when you decide to join our community of men, I will ask you to share those assessments, but only once you are committed to the program.

During the two Introductory Weeks, I will send you basic modules for what is called solo-cultivation, exercises and practices you do on your own in order to get to know yourself. You will also receive reading material about the process and goals of Homoerotic Yogic Tantra.

Finally, you will have a number of chats and email conversations with me, Dāka Karuṇā, your personal mentor and guide, about what you are learning and how you feel about what you are experiencing.

By the end of the two week Introductory period, you will know whether you want to continue to the actual programs, and we will discuss what’s the best way to do that.

For starters, you should visit the 108 Days of Reflection and Meditation site, since self-reflection and meditation are important disciplines you will cultivate. Here on the public Homoerotic Yogic Tantra site, where you will find a treasury of information on the science, philosophy, and programs. At some point, if you are serious about your development, you will want to request access to the private Homoerotic Yogic Tantra site, which is for members only.

At some time you might want to join the Homoerotic Tantra group on LinkedIn or, if you are a Facebook denizen, the Homoerotic Yogic Tantra Facebook group. You will find updates and notices and links for new posts and articles there.

Of course, if you have any specific questions, you should contact me Dāka Karuṇā T.

(a.k.a. William) at d.karuna.t@gmail.com any time.

Over the past 3 years, that is, about a year before the so-called pandemic to the present, I have been keeping up with the spiritual and psychological literature as well as observing trends and developments in the arena of masculinity, gender, and identity. From my Archimedean vantage point as a detached observer not politically or emotionally involved, I have been able to identify a number of phenomena, which may have passed under the radar of those men who are unaware of what’s going on or those who are hyperaware of what’s happening to them, and, consequently, politically and emotionally drawn into the chaos. Both groups, the unaware and the hyperaware are at increased risk of depersonalization and dissociation, two consequences of overwhelming challenges to psychospiritual nature.

I’m going to risk a sweeping generalization by saying that in the male population that appears drawn to Homoerotic Yogic Tantra, there are three distinct groups:

  • 🆈🅾🆄🅽🅶 🅼🅴🅽 🅸🅽 🆃🅷🅴 18-30 🅰🅶🅴 🅶🆁🅾🆄🅿, who are torn between preparation for an occupation or career but have been brainwashed into thinking that the socioeconomic world of their parents and teachers is even close to the chaotic and unstable world they are about to enter or have entered; these young men have grown up and matured — I use that term very liberally — in a world in which tradition, morality, and values in general have been cast to the winds; they have no compass to guide them on their course.
  • The second group includes 🅼🅴🅽 🅸🅽 🆃🅷🅴 30-50 🅰🅶🅴 🅶🆁🅾🆄🅿 who at the lower end have generally distorted or poorly framed guideposts but have grown up in a world in which traditional values and family have suffered severe setbacks without having been replaced by anything resembling groundedness or stability; the men at the older end can at least look back and recognize tradition, morality, and values, even if it’s been made incredibly difficult and dangerous to live them.
  • The third group overlaps with the second group and includes 🅼🅰🆃🆄🆁🅴 🅼🅴🅽 🅸🅽 🆃🅷🅴 50-70+ 🅰🅶🅴 🅶🆁🅾🆄🅿. I’d like very much to include men in their 80s because they are remarkable resources and can share so much wisdom with the younger groups that I can only call them treasures; regrettably, however, their generations created an ageist mindset that dictated to these men of great achievement that after 65 or retirement, the only place they had was the pasture. That’s a horrible mistake but I will discuss that elsewhere. The 50-70s men tend to be pretty stable and can hold their own but they, too, have been subjected to some very toxic cultural conditioning, harmful stereotypes, and social scripts that have put men and masculinity on the defensive. The white male has very little going for him in the early 21st century, and the threats to the masculine spirit and to masculinity itself are more insidious now than ever before in human history.

The first of the three groups, the youngest men, stand to reap the greatest benefits from a masculine spirituality that fosters and cultivates self-awareness, masculine spirituality, groundedness, and the ability to simplify and let go of harmful attachments and false goals. Not only will they have the opportunity to choose a more fulfilling lifestyle and healthier mindset, they will benefit most because they will likely have more time to enjoy those benefits. On the other hand, they are the most difficult to persuade because of the overall confusion, the distrust they have learned, and their general lack of tradition, values, and self-esteem. Another problem is the fact that they have such deplorable role models; educators, leaders, clergy have all failed in providing positive role models for these young men. Here’s where committed older men, steeped in Homoerotic Yogic Tantra offer this group the greatest returns but requires commitment, energy, and devotion, investments that many younger men are unwilling or unable to make.

Paradoxically, whereas the 30-50s are more settled, they are unsettled. This group have spent and survived most of the exuberance of the inexperienced and immature years, and have settled into careers but for the majority of men in this age group, those careers are tantamount to a death march. Moreover, these men face numerous humiliations in the marketplace and at the job. Again, a middle-aged white male has little going for him in today’s world, and wherever he turns he sees potential hostility or adversity. While the 18-30s can derive the greatest long-term dividends from Homoerotic Yogic Tantra, the 30-50s make up the group that most needs the benefit of yogic science and philosophy and tāntric spirituality in order to cope efficiently with the ubiquitous challenges of masculinity, identity, and status. Once a man is fully immersed in the principles and practices, mindset, lifestyle of HYT, he becomes a better self and a more selfless servant to others.

The 50-70+ man is probably the most grounded; he’s been there and done that — and I mean all of that. There’s not much an awakened, self-aware, mature man hasn’t experienced and evaluated; he’s in the most authentic position to ‘take the best and leave the rest.” He’s more discerning of what is true and what is fake, he can spot a bullshitter from a mile away, and offers and demands authenticity. Unfortunately, such men are a very small minority of the general population, and they may come across as arrogant or intolerant, until one takes the time to appreciate who they are.These men are either quite capable of just leaning back and watching the show or they’ve become sociopaths or closet cases, unable to deal with the attitudes, politics, and scripts being performed. Oddly enough, both of these groups can derive substantial, life-changing benefit from the Homoerotic Yogic Tantra lifestyle, science, philosophy, and practices. This group is the group that serves selflessly as mentors for the two younger groups; the 50-70+ men who serve as mentors and facilitators are remarkable products of self-awareness and resiliance, and they are able to confer this “grace” or “sacrament” to the younger men in discernment.

What I have presented above is, of course, a gross generalization of my observations and experiences but is well-established science as well.

I would be remiss if I weren’t to share that I have identified great wisdom and virtue in each of these groups and, even if I have broken them down into age-delimited groups, ɪ ᴅᴏ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ᴇᴍᴘʜᴀꜱɪᴢᴇ ᴛʜᴀᴛ ɪ ᴛᴇᴀᴄʜ ᴛʜᴀᴛ ᴀɢᴇ ɪꜱ ᴀ ᴍɪɴᴅꜱᴇᴛ, ᴀɴᴅ ᴀɢᴇ ꜱʜᴏᴜʟᴅ ɴᴇᴠᴇʀ ᴘʟᴀʏ ᴀ ᴘᴀʀᴛ ɪɴ ʜᴏᴍᴏᴇʀᴏᴛɪᴄ ʏᴏɢɪᴄ ᴛᴀɴᴛʀᴀ ᴀꜱ ᴀ ʟɪꜰᴇꜱᴛʏʟᴇ ᴏʀ ᴀꜱ ᴀ ᴄᴏᴍᴍᴜɴɪᴛʏ. The basis for that statement is far to complex to be discussed in a short article, and requires a great deal of self-awareness, awakening, and reflection to be truly appreciated but once a man gets his arms around homoeroticism, vulnerability, and intimacy, and he embraces the philosphy of yoga and the practices and rituals of tantra, he finds there is no other path but the path of the tantric Hero-Warrior.

What Don’t You Understand About Visualization?


An Official Site of
Homoerotic Tantra:Mascul-IN-Touch℠ & Homoerotic Hesion℠

These past couple of months have been real eye-openers in terms of men attempting to enroll in Homoerotic Tantra ℠ and the Mascul-IN-Touch℠ Mascul-IN-Timacy℠ programs. I say this because over the past three months some six men have enrolled via Patreon, pledged, and, without ever receiving a minute of guidance, dropped out.

While that may be a good thing in terms of eliminating men who are not really the right stuff, it does waste a lot of time and effort, which could be directed elsewhere, like providing guidance to men who know what they want.

No one is telling you to sign up and pledge immediately. Hang out for a month or so, and get a feel for Homoerotic Yogic Tantra and how it fits into your life, or not. You’re welcome here. Peruse the summaries of the exercises and practices. Write or call Daka and ask for a couple of the actual full-length training modules. Daka will be available for chats or phone conversations to discuss your questions with you. It’s all about being in the moment, not rushing, breathing, relaxing, loving! Take your time and make everyone’s life more pleasant. What’s important is not that you join and pledge but that you are happy and that you know this is right for you. Everything else is secondary.

Please, before you sign up, THINK about what you are doing! I have no time to waste on fence-sitters or sociopaths who can’t make of their minds. This may sound harsh but I must make it clear that if you are that troubled, please do not squat here!

The second type I’d like to avoid is even more dangerous, both to himself and to others.

Fortunately, these types are rare but when they do appear, they mean big trouble. They are generally very needy, a bit sociopathic, intelligent, even successful in terms of affluence, but have deep-seated problems. You know who you are, and you know what you are doing; I know who you are, and I know what you are doing. So why even start the silly game. You know you’re looking for an authority figure, a father you never had, but this is not the place to find him.

Most of these types have been through some sort of therapy, have tortured childhoods, and have been around the block with “sacred sex,” “body electronic,” gay tantra, New Age whatnot, are popping daily doses of prep, and may even have gone through a divorce or two.

How clear can I get?!? This is not a therapy or a support group for lonely hearts, sick children in men’s bodies, and it’s not a sex club.

The most recent example of this type appeared two weeks ago. 46 years old, fit, very enthusiastic, apparently a talented and successful graphics designer, troubled childhood (not an automatic disqualifier), through several years of “therapy” (red flags), former yoga teacher (Really?!?), difficult divorce (!!!), and very, very enthusiastic. Sounds like a great catch, doesn’t it?  You’d think so, wouldn’t you?

I am very patient and tolerant, and unless there’s something really strange going on, I’ll usually make every effort to meet a man where he’s at, work through the rough spots, and give him a chance. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t but at some point we have a chat and we can both agree on the outcome.

Well, my example showed great interest and great enthusiasm. As is quite frequent, I had to tell him several times to slow down and take it slower and easier; there was much to learn and it had to be done slowly. He agreed each time and each time wanted more and more.

I would counsel him and he would give the impression of understanding and accepting the mentoring, only to shoot off a text or a lengthy email telling me how he was really feeling different, everything was taking on a new light, he was feeling change coming from deep within. He needed to get closer to me.

Trouble!

There was a clear transference phenomenon taking place here and it was getting out of hand. He wouldn’t or couldn’t accept this and needed to know it was a special guru-disciple experience. I knew better.

Finally, he insisted on a video chat for one of our early supervision sessions. I informed him, again, that I did not do video chats early in the training for very good reasons, particularly because the solo-cultivation phase was for the disciple to find himself, not me or any other partner. It was important that he concentrate on self-awakening and self-awareness.

I counseled him on the importance of letting go of dependence on physical visualization, the use of the physical senses and to start visualizing, or attempting to visualize with the inner eye, the mind’s eye. That was part of the learning at this point: visualization.

In fact, Module 4 of the solo-cultivation phase is an early module that is concerned with introducing visualization; he had Module 4, and knew that he was to be visualizing, yet he insisted on having a photo or an image of me, because he wanted to have a connection.

I’m not going to continue with this example, because I feel that any man with an iota of tantric sense will be able to see why this man was not right. Not right in many ways but not right for Homoerotic Yogic TantraHe had convinced himself — and only himself — that he had found his panacea, the discipline that would cure all of his hurts. He did not find a panacea; he found another way to cause himself suffering, to become a victim, and another person to blame. He had been doing that from his childhood — his parents were the monsters —, through his failed relationships — his superficial boyfiends were the monsters—, to a failed marriage — the wife was the monster —, to several experiences in between, to Homoerotic Yogic Tantra, which refused to be a monster. He became a victim anyway, because HYT refused to play his game.

What was most revealing about this man was that he was ungrateful and self-centered. He took as much as he could and wanted more and more; when his infantile hungers were not satisfied, he felt slighted. He not only left after two weeks, having received a number of training materials, and hours of mentoring, he even cancelled his $15 pledge (he registered incorrectly as a “student”). Well, maybe he needs the $15 more than anyone else. Who knows. We wish him joy and blessings on his journey.

There are many valuable teaching and learning moments in this anecdote, and I will use the example in future teaching.

Homoerotic Yogic Tantra is not a playpen nor a rehab center. From time to time I have to write something like this simply to shake things up and put some men on notice that they have to play elsewhere, not in this sandbox. 

Any man thinking about joining this community has everything he needs to form an informed opinion of what to expect; there is no excuse for starting and then creeping away, tail between the legs, or worse, thinking that this is going to be a therapy session for broken hearts or sick souls.

Before you pledge, make up your mind that you’re going to give it a try. If you pledge, be prepared to work on your program and don’t expect to have a nursemaid, or a boyfriend. If you pledge, have the dignity not to ask for a refund after you’ve taken hours, days, or even weeks of a mentor’s time, and you have received training materials. That’s just not right.

In Christian Holy Scripture, there’s a gospel that goes, “Many are called but few are chosen.” In Yoga scripture there’s a saying that there are “many gurus but one disciple.” Both mean basically the same thing. If you understand the gist, there’s some hope.

Peace and joy!

Excerpt: Straight Men – “What’s in it for me?”

ॐ नमः शिवाय
Om Namah Shivaya |

The Authoritative Manual of Homoerotic Tantra:Mascul-IN-Touch℠

An excerpt from a recent Homoerotic Tantra:Mascul-IN-Touch editorial by Dāka Karuṇā दाक करुणा.

Homoerotic Tantra (तन्त्र): What’s in it for the “Straight” Man

A seeker recently contacted me after having seen an announcement on LinkedIn. His message was:

“Hey Daka, thanks for introducing yourself. I have recently become interested in Yoga and meditation, but I am a straight[1]man in a heterosexual relationship, do you think there is something for me in your teachings?”

The man’s question is similar to ones I have received in the past not only from homosexual[2] and “bisexual” men, men in heterosexual relationships and living a heterosexual lifestyle, but also from men who call themselves “bicurious” − what I call the “fence-sitters.”[3] I have already written an article on the problems of the so-called “bicurious” man, which you can read at The Tragedy of Bicurious.

Warning: I am approaching a topic that is loaded with political gunpowder but I have no intention of playing nice just to please or appease those who refuse to accept reality and truth. Yes, some of what I have to say is acutely straightforward; I am shooting from the hip and am taking no prisoners, so be warned. If you are a pabulum-puking libtard who is content with what you find in your political feeding trough, you might want to stop here. It is not my intention to please or to cause suffering; whatever your reaction is your own — your baby, you rock it —, and you will have to take a quiet moment for self-reflection and examination to know why you’re reacting the way you are. If you manage only that, I have achieved a great purpose.

Labels and Homoerotic Tantra℠

The present question centers on men who identify themselves with the label, “heterosexual,” and who are engaged in a so-called heterosexual relationship but who are attracted or curious about homoerotic yogic tantra (तन्त्र), whether in its character as a spiritual discipline or for more, shall we say, covert reasons.[4]

While I have no intention of entering into a psychoanalytical treatise of why a man pursues a particular social trajectory and pastes a label across his chest, whether he is of the [L]GBTQ or the straight camp, I am intrigued that a man should need to ask whether he would benefit from a program and discipline that is based on awakening, self-awareness, truth, and liberation, considering the erotosensory and erotosensual skills that accompany the evolution and transformation of the triad of physical, mental/emotional, and psychospiritual aspects.

While I teach the complementarity of the masculine and feminine principles, these are to be understood as convenient designations of subtle forces and have nothing whatsoever to do with biological gender or sex. They are metaphysical and metapsychological terms of art that are not intended to establish nor to endorse the artificial phenomenon of cultural genderized conditioning or the stereotypes evoked by heteronormative assumptions of what a “man” is or should be or what a “woman” is or should be, nor how one human being should interact with or engage another human being.

Notes:

[1] The term “straight” can be usually be used as a synonym for the shortened form “hetero”. The term straight likely originated as a mid-20th century as a gay slang term for heterosexuals, presumably originating from the phrase “to go straight,” as in “straight and narrow”. One of the first uses of the word in this way was in 1941 by author G. W. Henry. Henry’s book recorded conversations with homosexual males and used this term in connection with people who are identified as ex-gays. It is now simply a colloquial term for “heterosexual”, having changed in primary meaning over time. Some object to usage of the term straight because it implies that non-heteros are crooked.

The source of the expression is the Bible, specifically Matthew 7:13/14. The King James’ Version:

Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

[2] Henry Havelock Ellis (1859 – 1939) . An English physician, eugenicist, writer, progressive intellectual and social reformer who studied human sexuality. He co-wrote the first medical textbook in English on homosexuality in 1897, and also published works on a variety of sexual practices and inclinations, as well as on transgender psychology.

[3] Bi-curious is a term for a man, usually a man whose is orientation tends primarily to be heterosexual, and who is curious or open about engaging in erotosensual activity with a person of his own gender. The term is sometimes used to describe a variety of erotosensual orientations ranging between homosensuality and “bisexuality,” a term that I find to be absolutely silly. The continuum of interaction includes primarily heterosexual or primarily homosexual, but such men are likely to self-label while avoiding actually admitting a “bisexual” identity. We could also apply the terms heteroflexible and homoflexible when referring to men who labels himself bi-curious”, people, although some writers would distinguish heteroflexibility and homoflexibility not having the urge to “experiment with sexuality” implied by the bicurious label.

[4] The term heterosexual is a modern invention, and first appears in 1892, in C.G. Craddock’s translation of Krafft-Ebbing’s “Psychopathia Sexualis;” it is a compound of hetero- “other, different” + sexual. The noun is recorded by 1914 but was not in common use until the 1960s. Colloquial shortening hetero is attested from 1933. The term homosexual dates back to the same source; that is, 1892, in C.G. Chaddock’s translation of Krafft-Ebing’s “Psychopathia Sexualis,” from German homosexual, homosexuale (by 1880, in Gustav Jäger), from Greek homos “same” (see homo- (1)) + Latin-based sexual.

H.H. Ellis had a very low opinion of the term homosexual:

‘Homosexual’ is a barbarously hybrid word, and I claim no responsibility for it. It is, however, convenient, and now widely used. ‘Homogenic’ has been suggested as a substitute. [H. Havelock Ellis, “Studies in Psychology,” 1897], “Studies in Psychology,” 1897]

Quite a number of curious men have asked for more information on the 16-week cycle of  Mascul-IN-Touch℠/Hesion℠. In fairness to those who are registered in the 16-week program, I cannot ethically provide full-texts, so I’d like to provide an excerpt from one of the sādhana (साधन) exercises to give you an idea of what the more than 40 units of the 16-week program teach. This excerpt is from one of the Level 2 (Intermediate, Weeks 6-10) units on dual cultivation (practice with a Tantric Lover). I hope it piques your interest and awakens the Divine Masculine Spirit in you!

Lalanapalḷana (लालनपाळण) The Caressing Touch

sadhana means you are using everything available to you as a tool for your wellbeing

Touch Ritual As A Container For Awakening (Excerpt)

Homoerotic Tantra is an erotospiritual practice and engages the triad of mind, body and spirit in alchemy of Eros. In order to derive the whole range of benefits from the practices and rituals, you will peacefully use all of your senses and energies to attain awareness; you must trust your perceptions, you must be willing to be authentic (genuine and truthful), self-forgetful (leave the ego at the door). You must be willing to surrender to truth and grace, and accept your responses and reactions with abandonment and freedom. In our homoerotic Tantra practice we will integrate esoteric and mystical traditions of erotospiritual practices that are conceived to overcome the separation of sacred (psychospiritual) and profane (physical erotosensual) love.

Summary

In my Homoerotic Tantra practice I use a variety of rituals; the exercises,  the practices, and even the presentation of the modules are at their heart all rituals. I also use more formal rituals taken and adapted from traditional worship, self-reflection and meditation practice, somatosensory and erotosensual exercises, and I design rituals for specific homoerotic Tāntric applications. I have already mentioned the rituals of the activities of daily life, which themselves may number literally in the dozens!

Since I am writing this article in the midst of preparing instructional material in the somatosensory modules, specifically Touch, I shall use touch as my illustrative sense. The practice I call Touch Ritual is a 60-90 minute session conducted in a specific ritual format, which, in order to be effective, must be adapted to the general intention and to the individuals participating. Some touch rituals may depend on and be designed around the śiṣya’s (शिष्य) skills, intention, and his needs and desires. When I step back, I notice more and more inherent ritual elements in the way a ritual unfolds; even after carefully designing and studying the ritual, I find that there are hidden components that provide for the seamlessness and fluidity of the ritual actions.

Male Anatomy 101: Penis & Erection

ॐ असतो मा सद्गमय

A man’s external anatomy is generally standard for most all men, given some variation in dimensions and in colour, etc. Regardless of dimensions and colour, externally an intact, healthy man, whether he’s gay, straight or bisexual, will likely consist of the penis or vajra (वज्र), the testicles or devamaṇi (देवमणि), the perineum or bhāga (भग), the pāyu (पायु) or anus. All of these structures are accessible externally. A structure that is not external but can be stimulated externally is the prostate or the P-spot, which we call the kāṇḍa (काण्ड) or aṣṭīlā (अष्ठीला) in homoerotic tāntric terminology. The vajra (वज्र), when properly stimulated, becomes the liṅgaṃ (लिङ्गम्) or the masculine wand of light, the erection. The history of penile erection has been at best confused and stagbabt until the mid-to-late 20th century, when the anatomy and physiology of erection was finally reconciled. The male erection is still shrouded in mystery, however. In this module the śiṣya (शिष्य) and the prāvitṛi (प्रावितृ) is provided with a brief anatomy lesson, a history lesson, and the terminology of Homoerotic Tantra:Mascul-IN-Touch and Homoerotic Hesion  ritual anatomy


Homoerotic Tantra is an erotospiritual practice and engages the triad of mind, body and spirit in alchemy of Eros. In order to derive the whole range of benefits from the practices and rituals, you will peacefully use all of your senses and energies to attain awareness; you must trust your perceptions, you must be willing to be authentic (genuine and truthful), self-forgetful (leave the ego at the door). You must be willing to surrender to truth and grace, and accept your responses and reactions with abandonment and freedom. In our homoerotic Tantra practice we will integrate esoteric and mystical traditions of erotospiritual practices that are conceived to overcome the separation of sacred (psychospiritual) and profane (physical erotosensual) love.


Most of my readers and all of my followers, śiṣya-s (aspirants) and patron/sponsors are mature men, most of whom are over 30, so I don’t feel I have to apologize for not covering Puberty 101 at this point. That having been said, if you need a refresher on when your testicles descended, when you started developing secondary gender characteristics, or when you started producing sperm, you are very likely in the wrong place and shouldn’t be reading this.

So much for the disclaimer/caveat. Let’s get started.

As a man, you’ve probably seen yourself naked a number of times. As a gay or bisexual man, you have probably seen many men naked. If you have never seen a naked man before, please Google “naked men,” and then return to this article.

Assuming you have seen a naked man, either yourself or someone else, you will be aware of several things: He’s beautiful. He’s complex. He’s awesome to watch. He’s more awesome to touch. He looks pretty much like you and all the other naked men you’ve been watching. Right?

A man’s external anatomy is pretty standard for most all men, given some variation in dimensions and in colour, etc. Regardless of dimensions and colour, externally an intact, healthy man, whether he’s gay, straight or bisexual, will likely consist of:

  • A penis (vajra (वज्र),liṅgaṃ (लिङ्गम्))
  • A scrotum (vṛṣaṇa (वृषण))
  • Two testicles (devamaṇi (देवमणि))
  • A perineum (bhāga (भग) or viṭapa (विटप))
  • An anus (pāyu (पायु), garbhagṛha (गर्भगृह), s.t. yoni (योनि))
  • The genitals and the anus as a unit (pāyūpastha (पायूपस्थ))

 

The male erotogentital anatomy.

All of these structures are located in the territories of mūlādhāra (मूलाधार) or first chakra and svādhiṣṭhāna (स्वाधिष्ठान) or the second chakra. More on that when we turn our discussion to the cakra-s (चक्र).

All of these structures are accessible externally. A structure that is not external but can be stimulated externally is the prostate or the P-spot, which we call the kāṇḍa (काण्ड) or aṣṭīlā (अष्ठीला) in homoerotic tāntric terminology.

Introduction & A Brief Retrospect of the Cult of Phallus Worship

Introduction & A Brief Retrospect of the Cult of Phallus Worship

ॐ असतो मा सद्गमय
Om Asato Ma Sadgamaya[1]
 असतो मा सद्गमय 
तमसो मा ज्योतिर्गमय 
मृत्योर्मा अमृतं गमय 
 शान्तिः शान्तिः शान्तिः

Om Shaantih Shaantih Shaantih ||

You know something about the history of the divine phallus, the liṅgaṃ (लिङ्गम्). I’m going to  teach you a little about the vajra (वज्र) (general term for penis), the liṅgaṃ (लिङ्गम्) (the sacred erect penis, the phallus), ejaculation, and orgasm. Just a little; enough to get the juices flowing. If you want more, I’ll provide you with a literature list. But what I provide here should be a good basis.

It is my experience and my conviction that you really can’t get the most out of tāntric erotosensory practices, ejaculation control, cultivation of ecstasy and bliss, adoration of the liṅgaṃ (लिङ्गम्), or the sacrificial ritual of amṛta (अमृत), or even the awesomeness of your Tāntric Lover, unless you appreciate your own male body. I hope you agree.

This is the first of a series of articles that provide an orientation of sorts to the science — ranging from anthropology to archeology to anatomy and physiology — of the sacred symbol of male creative power, the phallus.[2]


Homoerotic Tantra is an erotospiritual practice and engages the triad of mind, body and spirit in alchemy of Eros. In order to derive the whole range of benefits from the practices and rituals, you will peacefully use all of your senses and energies to attain awareness; you must trust your perceptions, you must be willing to be authentic (genuine and truthful), self-forgetful (leave the ego at the door). You must be willing to surrender to truth and grace, and accept your responses and reactions with abandonment and freedom. In our homoerotic Tantra practice we will integrate esoteric and mystical traditions of erotospiritual practices that are conceived to overcome the separation of sacred (psychospiritual) and profane (physical erotosensual) love


This is the first of a series of articles that provide an orientation of sorts to the science — ranging from anthropology to archeology to anatomy and physiology — of the sacred symbol of male creative power, the phallus.

The penis or phallus in its erect state, upastha (उपस्थ) in Sanskrit, was not simply plucked at random from the universe of available symbols.[3]

The ascent of the male organ of generation to the symbol of divine creativity must have occurred at some time in our early history when humankind noted that it was the penis and the semen that created life in the inert female womb. It was certainly not long after that observation that parallels were drawn to buttress and support that primal observation. Take for instance the ancient belief that the rain is celestial semen that falls to the earth (female) to impregnate her and make her bear fruit. Without the celestial semen, the womb of the earth would be dry and barren.

It would not be long before the phallus, the liṅgaṃ (लिङ्गम्) would be made a deity worthy of worship and adoration. While the feminists and those who cower before them would take litigious offense at such a statement, particularly in its interpretation as degrading the female, the fact remains that (1) the statement is true and borne out in objective historical and anthropological/archaeological research, (2) that there is no world religion that does not have some sort of phallic worship in its origins, and (3) despite political, social, and religious suppression, world literature is brimming with references to the sacredness of the male organ![4]

The cult of the phallus or liṅgaṃ (लिङ्गम्) — which is estimated to have originated some 8,000 years ago — is also closely associated with serpent and bull cults, which survive in various forms even today, most visibly in India, but can be identified worldwide in cultures as diverse as the Middle East, Africa, Meso- and South and North America, and in a multitude of other regions.

Throughout the early history right up to the present — think Stonehenge or Filitosa (Corsica)[5] — humankind has been fascinated with the penis, the phallus.[6] The megalithic monuments to the power and divinity of the liṅgaṃ (लिङ्गम्) appears to have their source — at least in Europe — in the Eastern Mediterranean, and very likely owes its origin in proto-Tantra, whose parent is early Sanātanadharma (सनातनधर्म). That shouldn’t be a surprise to any of my readers familiar with the history and development of Western Philosophy, most notably after the expeditions led by Alexander the Great into the Indus region.

While it is true and must be noted that in Classical Vedic teachings there is no phallic worship and the cult of the phallus has no place in Vedic ritual and, in fact, is banned, it is mentioned in several classical religious texts, including the Ṛgveda (7.12.5 and 10.99.3) as well as in the Nirkuta (4.29). One of the mainstays of some Hindu religious denominations’ opposition to Tantra (तन्त्र) was the fact of the teaching of māyā (माया) or illusion. Tantra (तन्त्र) emphasized the importance of physical creation, and made pioneering forays into alchemy and medicine. The mainstream Hindu denominations, however, emphasized that creation is an illlusion, so why bother with such things as medicine?[7]

I do not want to belabor an indisputable and scientifically based statement that the cult of phallic worship and the identification of the male organ with divine creative power has been with us for a very long time and, despite the inglorious attacks of prudes and prigs, politicians and priests, freaks and feminists, is here to stay. The major contemporary problem we face in the 21st century comes from within our ranks as gay and bisexual men, in fact as men in general: it’s our alienation from our divine masculine spirit, from the deity within. Men today have been toxically conditioned and stereotyped into becoming worms and not gods!



A sci-fi mystery–and a very dark comedy–about several (mostly white) men who are systematically driven insane by a series of bizarre events. One of the men wakes up in the woods one day with amnesia and is confronted by a dominatrix who tells him they are on a mission from God. She takes him to Atlanta, where he comes upon an unapologetically racist and sexist book called The Total Emasculation of the White Man–which sets him off on a stranger quest. Another man, a college mathematics professor turned stay-at-home-dad, finds himself losing his mind when his son’s demonic teddy bear comes to life. Other men see even stranger horrors, but all these seemingly unconnected stories are part of a grand scheme that is either the work of a mischievous god or something weirder. Blending elements of fantasy, mystery, science fiction and comedy, The Total Emasculation of the White Man is a provocative exploration of gender and race relations in America today– (Unedited summary from the book by D V. Bernard,  The Total Emasculation of the White Man.  Strebor Books (2015))
