Welcome to the What is? Blog and Why it's here

Image
Welcome to the “What is NeoTantra” blog. A word of explanation on the title: It has little to do with the real person calling himself by the misleading moniker “Jason Tantra” but his example is so perfect for illustrating what I have to say on this blog that he and his “company” have earned the dubious distinction of being the paradigm of an insidious and harmful movement. That statement will be confirmed by real and true facts, as well as by Jason Tantra’s own statements, publications, and responses. I rely on my readers’ freedom of choice and good judgment to make their own decisions based on the Tantra 4 Gay Men Internet presence, Jason Tantra’s publications (YouTube and elsewhere), and his personal communications with the blogger and me. ( Aside : The Tantra 4 Gay Men UK site can be viewed at   https://www.tantra4gaymen.co.uk ; The Tantra 4 Gay Men US site can be viewed at  www.tantra4gaymen.com ;  "Jason Tantra" can be contacted at   jason@tantra4gaymen.c...

Jason Tantra and Tantra 4 Gay Men are Frauds Claiming to Teach Tantra

Jason Tantra is Part of the Problem, Not a Remedy. The Gay and Bisexual Man has to be aware of and beware of the snake-oil salesmen who are selling sex services in the guise of an ancient and complete lifestyle. They are using their own neuroses and selling them as self-help; the only ones they are actually helping — and that’s questionable — are themselves. The Snake-Oil Couple. Duh! Jonathan a.k.a. Davey Wavey and Jason "Tantra". It’s not Tantra and it’s definitely not Homoerotic Tantra: Mascul-IN-Touch . Please don’t confuse the snake-oil salesmen like Johnathan X a.k.a. “Davey Wavey” and Jason Y a.k.a. Jason Tantra with the gay and bisexual men on the positive path to awakening and transformation I teach as Homoerotic Tantra :Mascul-IN-Touch , which is not sex-for-sale , but a turnkey program for awakening the divine masculine spirit and transcendence, a lifestyle transformation.   If he does not have a license to practice, he may be breaking the...

Is Jason Tantra Breaking the Law?

If he does not have a license to practice, he may be breaking the law... Tantra4GayMen and Jason "Tantra" have become the focus of an investigation into what Neotantra is and what it does. If we are to go by some of the statements made on many of the Tantric Sex or Tantric Massage sites, they may come under the oversight and licensing authority of a state department of health or department of education. Furthermore, some of those offerings and some of the claims and statements in Jason's promotional material marketing those offerings may also be in direct violation of established public health policy. Jason Tantra is preying on the vulnerable gay and bisexual men Admittedly, if we are to take some of Jason Tantra's statements, if they were even intelligible, we'd not necessarily take them seriously; nevertheless, as Barnum is reputed to have said, "There's a sucker born every minute." What does concern me are his YouTube videos, some of which...

Men without Chests, Feelings, Souls?

Men Without Chests, Feelings, Souls ? What is becoming of the American man? “ We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and  enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and bid the geldings be fruitful .” C.S. Lewis, The Abolition Of Man [1] There is a plethora of evidence in the literature and media over the past couple of decades that point to the fact that men today, especially men in America, need a makeover — desperately. There has been an alarming decline in male self-awareness and masculinity over the past 30 or so years, judging from the research, that points to the fact that men are losing touch with themselves and, consequently, losing touch with reality. The all-consuming female principle has gone unchecked or has been turned lose by an increasingly complacent and out-of-touch society, and the result is imbalance and chaos. It cannot and likely will not have a good end. The sages have predicted this to ...

The Journey Begins

I'm frequently asked the question: What is Homoerotic Tantra ? Even  people who are somewhat familiar with Tantra, ask "What is Navatantra ?" My usual response is: Tantra is you; Tantra is the Moon; Tantra is the tides. But in essence Tantra is you. The single most damning characteristic of modern humankind is the impulse to name, define and to control everyone and everything. Actually, the very act of naming and defining something is an act of control, an unnatural act of the intellectualizing and discerning mind to be comfortable with the Other. That's simply not right or healthy. In Sanskrit there is the concept of Shabd , the Word. The concept is basically that the word is identical with the form (abstract). Think of it this way: Shabd is the personification or the reification of the abstract. So when we necessarily resort to words we do so hoping that the word, a symbol or an avatar, successfully represents the abstract or the intangible. Try this: ...
