The Naked Truth
Sacred Texts
Ribhu Gita
"Clad. In her absolute,
primordial nakedness she is free from all covering of "Illusion". She is Nature (Prakriti in Sanskrit), stripped of 'clothes'. It symbolizes that she is completely beyond name and form, completely beyond the illusory effects of "Maya" (false consciousness). Her nudity is said to represent totally illumined consciousness, unaffected by maya. Kali is the bright fire of truth, which cannot be hidden by the clothes of ignorance. Such truth simply burns them away. " |
| Throughout the world, so-called holy men have maintained that to look at a woman is something totally wrong: they say you cannot come near to God if you indulge in sex, therefore they push it aside although they are eaten up with it JK |

“You have been feeling the way your society programmed you to feel. You
have been thinking the way your society programmed you to think. You have been
behaving the way your society programmed you to behave. Even your desires are
not your own, original desires. They are all programmed in you by your society.
Have you done anything original in your life?”
- Abhijit Naskar
Although most "spiritual disciplines" insist on evolving into higher states of consciousness by controlling or "denying the senses"and so called lower states of consciousness , Tantra teaches that you cannot experience complete personal and spiritual liberation while restricting a part of your being How can one experience Total unity whilst denying a part of that Totality ?
