Although it is not springtime, I seem to be getting a lot of emails and requests from guys looking to enhance their sexual prowess and performance in bed. So for this month’s Learn Yoga Asana series, I thought it would be good to learn a pose which is known for improving male sexual health and virility. This pose is Chair Yoga Pose and I am quite a fan of it myself.
A wonderful thing about yoga workouts and poses is that they work on you at many different levels at once. Not only are they great for your physical dimension, but are also often designed to work on your emotional or mental dimensions as well.
In continuing the mission to create the most comprehensive, free yoga website out there, it is time to expand into the areas of prenatal, pregnancy and post natal yoga, and provide you with yoga exercises known to be very helpful during these phases of childbirth. My wife, Trupti, is a certified pre/post natal yoga teacher and she will be helping create many of the workouts that I will be publishing here in the next few weeks.
I have recently received a few emails regarding the recent sex scandal involving Swami Nithyananda, asking for my thoughts on this matter and I will present those in this article. For those who are not familiar with this sex scandal, essentially Paramhamsa Nithyananda, a Guru who had claimed to be celibate and who had renounced worldly pleasures, was recently caught on video in some very compromising sexual positions with two (or same) women on separate occasions. His devotees are claiming fraud and conspiracy, but the evidence so far is looking very damning. I am not claiming one way or the other, but think this is a good opportunity to discuss some of the issues related to spiritual gurus, priests, swamis and sexual scandals.
The last yoga pose we added to our free Online Hatha Yoga Poses book, Crane Pose, required considerable balance and strength to do, and today’s addition is similar in that it requires a great deal of balance as well, but unlike Crane pose, this one needs flexibility more than strength. It is the scary looking White Tantra Yoga Lotus Pose 
, and as I mentioned, since we are now adding some more advanced postures to our collection, please follow the safety guidelines from the following 2 articles carefully when practicing these postures.
Along with the use of postures (asana), breath control (pranayama), mantras (sound and thought vibrations) and mudras, another fundamental part of kundalini tantra yoga is the use of bandhas, or body locks. In the past, I have discussed the most important lock, the Root Lock, and how it’s clever use can greatly enhance any yoga practice. You will find that discussion in the article 5 Simple Yoga Tips to Elevate You Practice. Today though I am going to take the use of Body Lock exercises to the next level, and discuss the use of the advanced tantric technique, Triple Lock or Maha Bandha, for advancing your yoga expertise.
The tantra yoga exercise in this article is a video demonstration of the technique which is fully detailed in the article Tantric Technique for Raising Sexual Energy. As you will notice in the comments section of that article, there were many yogis who had questions regarding this wonderful technique, which could only really by solved by making a video demonstration. So here it is for all of you, a video instructing you on how to practice Sat Kriya step by step.
Tantra Yoga is the mother of yogic sciences. In fact, the Kundalini Yoga teachings on this website are also sometimes referred to as White Tantra Yoga. One particular school of Tantra Yoga that is devoted to the understanding and use of Sexual energy for spiritual realization is often confused as the only form of Tantra, but this is a misunderstanding. Certainly Tantra Yoga has delved deep into the nature and essence of Sex energy, and you can look upon that aspect as Erotic Tantra or the one which uses Sexual Energy to stir and awaken Kundalini Shakti.
Kundalini tantra yoga practice is essentially the high art of awakening the chakras to promote rapid spiritual advancement and personal mastery. It is is a misunderstanding to think of tantra yoga as just sexual yoga. Although there is an entire segment of this science dedicated to the use of sex as a means of awakening kundalini to accelerate spiritual evolution, tantra yoga is much more than just that. In fact, Kundalini Yoga (Hindu or Sikh versions) is actually Kundalini Tantra Yoga, and is essentially the use of tantric techniques to purify the body, balance the chakras and awaken kundalini.
Kundalini Yoga is considered the ultimate house holder’s yoga. Which means virility and sexual energy are not suppressed, but in fact considered an important aspect of one’s health and life. Previously, I have also indicated that sexual energy, which is considered the most potent form of bio-chemical energy in the body, is the one form of energy that can be used for rejuvenating the entire physical apparatus, as well as be used for spiritual growth and transformation; so this energy is certainly important to have in quantity and quality.
