The word Tantra has become a very popular word and is unfortunately linked to a special sexual experience or black magic. Surprisingly even those who organise tantric workshops know very less about Tantra as a school of philosophy and practice.
So here is an effort to introduce Tantra as a traditional practice which has a huge influence on yoga philosophy and practice. So every Yogic aspirant should have the basic knowledge of Tantra so as to avoid any misconceptions and illusions.

Yogacharya Arvind
About Teacher
Yogacharya Arvind, co-founder and one of the teachers at Samyak Yoga, started his journey towards Yoga, Vedanta, Sanskrit and Scriptural learning from the year 2003.
Blessed by his pradhanacharya (guru) Dr. Ramachandra Bhat ji and other scholars, he pursued his education from Veda Vijnana Gurukulam for 6 years.
After voluntary resignation from a job overseas in the year 2012 he travelled to Tiruvannamalai in Tamilnadu where he had his first spiritual experience in ‘Virupaskha Guha’. In search of more subtle wisdom and practices, he travelled to some parts of Kerala where he got initiated by scholars who practice and follow a tantric lifestyle.
His father being a spiritual practitioner introduced him to Shri Ramanathan Guruji from Palakkad, Kerala, from whom the first mantric initiation into Tantra took place in the year 2007. Yogacharya Arvind calls that as the first subtle Initiation – ‘Sukshma Shaktipata’. From then on, Yogacharya Arvind has a good practice of chanting different Tantric Beeja Mantras.
This workshop conducted exclusively by Yogacharya himself will be an eyeopener for many into the world of Tantra and can demystify the notions and misunderstandings that revolve around Tantra.
