The Power of Tantra Meditation: 50 Meditations for Energy, Awareness, and Connection

Writing about such subjects well must be extremely difficult, but this effort is suspicious to say the least. “This mantra” (in sanskrit) “should not be recited if postnatal or menstruating or if a death has occurred in your immediate family.” Right. The same authors stress the dire need for respect and reverence of terms, but use the word “science” in horribly inappropriate contexts. They come across as though they simply struggle with modern life and are desperately trying to escape it. I’d prefer to respect tantra enough to imagine it a little better thought out. It is a fairly useful dictionary of sorts for fundamental concepts. Terms seem summarised from other texts rather than giving you confidence the authors have understood them. But the meditations range from so simplistic as to be comedic all the way to warning you not to say something in Sanskrit if your grandmother’s dead. There may be one or two aspects of the ancient philosophy (particularly those pertaining to honesty) the authors haven’t quite grasped

This book is like being back at the Ashram. Having a copy of the mediations they have gifted me through my YTT in book is a gift that will last a lifetime. If you find you connect with this book I highly recommend visiting the Ashram in beautiful Northern Canada.

Reading this book is such a profound and nourishing experience. I come back to it every day to dive deeper into Tantra and Meditation. It is so difficult to find books on Traditional tantra which are easy to comprehend and taste the essence of the teachings. This book is filled with so many tools and impulses to begin to gain an understanding on tantra and to develop a tantric practice. I suggest this book whole-heartedly to every meditation practitioner or being on a surch for truth and happiness. Thanks for making this available in the world!

As someone who has dipped their toe into the world of meditation I found this book and the discipline of Tantra a wonderful balance of spirituality while still allowing you to enjoy the pleasures of life! I found that this book gave me practical and easy meditations which I can incorporate into my everyday life.

This book is essential for anyone interested in meditation, starting out on their meditation journey, or even looking to deepen their already established practice. Artemis and Bhairav offer a perfect introduction to all aspects of non-dual Tantra and meditation. The Power of Tantra Meditation is more than just a taste of what tantra is; so much information and detail is offered about everything from the traditional history and principles of tantra to the benefits of its practice and the tools to achieve them. There is a huge selection of meditations ranging from beginner to more advanced practices, so there is truly something for everyone. As an aspiring tantrik practitioner and someone with only a beginner knowledge of tantra, I really appreciate how much information is offered in this book and how clear and succinctly it is organized for the reader. It is easy to understand, and is now a staple text in my collection that I will come back to again and again! Thank you!
