What does tantric sex have to do with the Kama Sutra, if anything?
ANSWER
The Kama Sutra dates back to about 400 CE, about 1,600 years.

How can one be sure they are learning about authentic tantric sex practices–or is there any such thing?
ANSWER
We suggest you look for published material, happy campers (satisfied students) who have taken their training, or connection with some spiritual lineage.

Wikipedia claims that tantric sex involves a WOMAN delaying her orgasms, rather than the man. Is this accurate, and if so, why would it be more important for a woman to delay her orgasms when men are usually the premature ejaculators?
ANSWER

Once they do this, men can then have orgasms without ejaculating and in this way become multi-orgasmic men. Many male tantric lovers will delay ejaculation for weeks or months at a time, even with lots

Tantric sex has a very hippie-dippy feel to it, thanks to Sting and other people who talk about emotional connections and self-healing through sex. Is there anything you can say to convince readers that this is not the case?
ANSWER
The shabby perception many people have about
Tantra sacred sexuality is mostly a reflection of their ignorance about what Tantra really is. Ignorance, of course, simply means not knowing. It does not in any way imply stupidity. If people had any clue what Tantra really was, and how profoundly it could improve their lives with better health, more pleasure, and total relationship happiness, not to mention the possibility of direct personal experience with the Divine, they would be reading books, and taking classes on the subject immediately. Unfortunately people have very immature ideas about sex and love and great relationships. They have never learned about healthy sex, spiritual sex, sacred sex, but

Who is tantric sex for? Is there any particular group of people that it will really benefit, and in what way?
ANSWER
It is hard to imagine anyone who would not benefit from learning the art of Tantric lovemaking. Certainly anyone who is keenly interested in sex would love Tantra. Anyone who wants a legitimate spiritual path that is NOT boring, is not a grinding burden of effort, hard work and disappointment as so many spiritual practices seem to be. If you are looking for a spiritual practice that 2 people can do together this is a perfect option.

What is tantric sex? Is it more than just delayed orgasms?
ANSWER
Tantric sex is one form of spiritual practice (sacred sex) from Tantra which originated in India between 4,000-6,000 years ago. The teaching of Tantrism is that everything is one thing and that one thing is pure consciousness—God, the one without a second. Furthermore, individuals can transcend the limitations of the ego-consciousness in which everything seems to be separate from everything else (duality) to have a direct personal experience (not just an idea or concept) of reuniting with that Divine consciousness.
