Buddhist Teachings about Sex of Tantric Buddhism.

“Being able to have sexual contact without releasing semen is something needed when you practice the advanced stages of the complete stage." ~ Dalai Lama

"For Buddhists, sexual intercourse can be used in the spiritual path because it causes a strong focus on Consciousness if the practitioner has firm compassion and wisdom. Its purpose is to manifest and prolong deeper levels of mind (described earlier with respect to the process of dying), in order to put their power to use in strengthening the realization of the emptiness. Otherwise, mere intercourse has nothing to do with spiritual cultivation. When a person has achieved a high level of practice in motivation and wisdom, then even the joining of the two sex organs or so-called intercourse does not detract from the maintenance of that person’s pure behavior..."

"Through special techniques of concentration during sex, competent practitioners can prolong very deep, subtle, and powerful states and put them to use to realize emptiness. However, if you engage in sexual intercourse within an ordinary mental context, there is no benefit." - How to Practice, Way to a Meaningful Life, His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Translated by Jeffrey Hopkins.

Santthosh Kumaar:~ I respect the views and wisdom of H. H Dalai lama.

As per my conviction:~

Sex has nothing to do with the Soul, which is sexless because it is an ever-formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

The one which born, lives has sex, and dies within the world is not the Self because the ‘Self’ is birthless and deathless.

The ‘Self is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness is formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

If the ‘Self’ is not you, by you having sexual intercourse, ignorance will not vanish. The wisdom is not product intercourse. All these imaginary theories based on the false self within the false experience produce only hallucination not the realization of truth.

Those who propagate Samadhi through sexual intercourse are not Gnanis. Sexual intercourse has nothing to do with the Soul, which is ever formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

Those who indulge in sexual activities in order to get enlightenment will permanently remain in the prison of the dualistic illusion. They are unfit to acquire Self-knowledge.

Sex and the sexual act are not the means to Self-realization because the Self is a genderless and ever-formless, timeless, and spaceless existence. Sex implies duality. The tantric sex is a theory based on the false Self (you) within the false experience (waking). When the world in which you exist is an illusion, having sex within the illusory world is bound to be an illusion.

Sex belongs to the domain of the duality. What is the use of discussing celibacy and sex in the Atmic path when the Atma is genderless because it is a formless, timeless, and spaceless existence?

Dalai Lama said: ~ Buddhism need not be the best religion though it is most scientific and religious and inquisitive. But Buddhism has no answer to certain questions like the existence of Atama (Soul) and rebirth. Dali lama said that as an individual he believes in rebirth as he had come across a few cases of rebirth. Modern science, Dalai Lama hoped would unearth the mystery behind the rebirth. (In DH –dec-212009-Gulburga).

Buddhists do not believe in Atma. Thus, the entire Buddhist theories and sutras are physically based therefore, they yield the truth of the part not the truth of the whole. All the Buddhist teachings are not of the Buddha, but it is mixed up with other religion of different nations in Asia which were merged with Buddhism. Thus, It is very difficult to get the pure essence of pure essence Bhagavan Buddha‘s wisdom.

Buddhism has not proved the truth of Nonduality. Advaitic Sages agree Bhagavan Buddha pointed out the unreality of the world.

Bhagavan Buddha told people they were foolish to cling to it. But he stopped there. He came nearest to Advaita in speech but not to Advaita fully.

Only when we independently search for the truth without religion and its doctrine then we will be able to realize the truth beyond form, time, and space. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
