Tantra Yoga is actually a spiritual teaching that was developed based on a deep understanding of the reality of the self, the universe and God. This teaching guides spiritual learners to be able to step into Divine Consciousness, with the estuary of liberation of the soul from all the roots of sorrow. In Tantra Yoga, there are systems and methods that lead to the purification of the soul from all karmic residues, bad traces of trauma and mental wounds, angkara murka, illusions and entanglements of inharmonious energies. Unfortunately, a lot of confusion has developed regarding Tantra. In the West, there are many neo-tantras that make sexuality the axis of teaching. This triggers people to associate Tantra with sexuality. In other parts of the Earth, such as in Nusantara, Tantra is often associated with brutal rituals that are considered as the application of the teachings of Panca Makara. Legendary figures from Nusantara such as Adityawarman, Sri Kertanegara and Calon Arang are often mentioned as practitioners of Tantra, specifically Bhairawi Tantra, with the habit of holding following rituals that undoubtedly make people in the modern era shake their heads: eating corpses, binge alcoholic drinking and sex parties, or performing dances. mystic naked in the grave. This book was actually written to answer all the confusion and at the same time straighten the slander against the legendary figures of Nusantara. In this book, Tantric practices are explained which are actually divine, simple and effective, to lead to enlightenment and a life full of happiness. Tantric practice includes dhyana, pranayama, samadhi, mantra, yantra and others. The author of this book, Setyo Hajar Dewantoro is a practitioner of Tantra as a path of stillness mindfulness that leads to connectedness as well asand great oneness with Sang Hyang Atman/True SelfDivine Self and Brahman/God Almighty. The readers are invited to dive into Tantra as a teaching of spiritual sciences as well asand a holistic method for the transformation of the soul towards purity, wisdom and complete perfect empowerment.

An in-depth study of humanity’s Anunnaki origins and the Anunnaki battle for an intelligent versus enslaved humanity • Explains the genetic engineering of humanity by an Anunnaki scientist Ninmah • Shows how the concepts of sin and the inferiority of women arose from Enlil’s will to keep humanity underdeveloped, clashing with Enki’s and Ninmah’s plan to make us equal in intelligence • Reveals how humanity’s long history of conflict was shaped by the battle between Enki and his brother Enlil Further developing the revolutionary work of Zecharia Sitchin, Chris Hardy shows that the “gods” of ancient myth, visitors from the planet Nibiru, created us using their own “divine” DNA--first through DNA extraction from their own ribs’ marrow and later by direct relations with early human females. Drawing upon multiple sacred texts, Hardy details the genetic engineering of humanity by Anunnaki scientist Ninmah, with the help of Enki and Hermes. She reveals how Ninmah’s first female human creation, Tiamat/Eve, contained more alien DNA than the earlier male one, Adamu, and how the biblical Noah represents the perfection of her work. Examining the war between Anunnaki brothers Enki and Enlil, Hardy reveals how the concepts of sin and the inferiority of women were born out of Enlil’s attempts to enslave and then wipe out humanity, repeatedly thwarted by Enki and Ninmah. The author further explains how the sacred sexuality taught to humans--still seen in Tantric practice--became suppressed millennia later by the patriarchal concept of original sin and how innocent Eve took the blame for the expulsion from Eden and fall from Grace. Showing that the god who created us was not the same god who expelled us from Eden, Hardy explains that there will be no apocalypse because the Good/Evil duality has never truly existed--it has been only enemy gods fighting and implicating humanity in the wake of their own competition for power. With a full psychological understanding of how the ancient “gods” have shaped humanity’s ongoing history of conflict, we can move beyond the framework of “(my) Good versus (your) Evil” imposed by Enlil and begin to steer our own planetary destiny.

Yoga, tantra and other forms of Asian meditation are practised in modernized forms throughout the world today, but most introductions to Hinduism or Buddhism tell only part of the story of how they developed. This book is an interpretation of the history of Indic religions up to around 1200 CE, with particular focus on the development of yogic and tantric traditions. It assesses how much we really know about this period, and asks what sense we can make of the evolution of yogic and tantric practices, which were to become such central and important features of the Indic religious scene. Its originality lies in seeking to understand these traditions in terms of the total social and religious context of South Asian society during this period, including the religious practices of the general population with their close engagement with family, gender, economic life and other pragmatic concerns.
