We like to breathe the ancient wind that we have followed





Magic and sex are deeply linked but not in the ways most people think. When most people go to a “tantra” workshop, they imagine magical sex is all about making sex more magical. But actually, magic is more about making everything that is *not* sex feel as magical as sex. For most people, sex already feels very magical. That’s because our biological drive has projected our inherent sense of majesty onto sex to incentivize us to reproduce. True tantra and true magic rely on seeing into the emptiness of that projection. Seeing that there is nothing more inherently magical about sex than about anything else. This allows us to transform ostensibly sexual energy into all purpose magic-energy that can supercharge our spiritual path. The bliss, meaning and love we find in sex is something we project onto it, not something inherent to it. And we have the power to project bliss, meaning and love onto anything with the same intensity that we project it onto sex. Actually we have the capacity to experience all this bliss, meaning and love without projecting it onto anything. Anything we project externally is a power within us that we can experience without the object of projection. This not only frees us to always experience the world as magical, it also frees us to treat others as co-subjects of compassionate exchange rather than objects to project our need for magic onto. Sex can teach us a little of what magic looks like. But if we learn the lesson well, we can see that magic everywhere.



Neither Fascism nor Nazism are either “right-wing” or “conservative.” Both are products of liberal technocratic modernity and exist within this framework. The idea that they oppose modernity and its underlying philosophical foundations is one of the “big lies.”
