WORKSHOP FACILITATED BY Dr Neil Durrant

Tantra Through The Ages

In this workshop, participants will embark on a journey through the history of tantra, tracing its evolution from ancient India to contemporary practices. This overview provides a foundational understanding of key concepts that have shaped common tantric techniques, including embodiment, breathwork, visualization, intimacy, and sexual touch. Following this introduction, the workshop features three interactive exercises, each beginning with a structured contemplation of a sacred text. These contemplations set the stage for practical demonstrations. The first section, “The Divine Self,” combines contemplation with a body scan meditation. The second section, “Divine Play,” involves contemplation followed by an eye-gazing and intimacy exercise. The final section, “Divine Pleasure,” integrates contemplation with a physical touch exercise, allowing participants to deepen their experience of tantra through direct engagement and practice.
