Female tantric are serving a lot of responsibility to preserve Tantra

There is a very strict kind of discipline in the life style of Tantra 


Haridwar
: 15 March 2024: (Media Link// The Tantra Screen Desk)::

The curiosity of knowing how the lives of women tantrikas and women Aghoris are in India and how their power or accomplishment was also related to our media team but it was not so easy either. It is neither appropriate nor empty of risk to visit their camps, ashrams or residential bases without their permission or command. If making them angry on any small thing can cause many difficulties. 

Say the desire of life or the things of luck that if the desires of the mind are full of vigor, then they also become complete. In the same way, in the life of the routine, sometimes some woman has been presented to the monk but she remains very brief. More than salutations and greetings, sometimes some offerings of his tenacity will also be found. His offerings also include fresh fruits many times, many times dried fruits. Many times some tricks of life too, but due to media motive, talks on Tantra either could not start or would be left incomplete. 

During such an offering, there was no possible discussion of the secret things of Sadhana in any way. Such an offering without any special discussion also took place in the forests of Haridwar, also in Delhi and in some places in Punjab। His adventures and mystery were also very memorable। 

During these meetings, Mohan Upadhyay Ji, the then active leader of the World Hindu Council, also lived together  With his initiative and guidance, he continued to have experience of this line. The entire mission and project was also left in the balance due to Mohan Ji's untimely death. All that was remembered is that the living tolerance of these women who seemed to be unconscious of divinity continued to affect the conscience. Her words continued to resonate in the mental world for a long time.  She had an energy field or a strong aura too.

In the heart of India, where ancient traditions and beliefs are very deep, this small, secret community of women has been present for a long time। Although they are not your average housewives or mothers, they have a power that most of the many times male seekers can only dream of Jai Mata came out of his mouth with his love or any other spiritual address, he would have been very different from our past and routine. Talking to those female powers of Tantra, the nature of maternal power also emerges from many times। Where there was a feeling of Vatsalya (Parental affection). It all also feels like a blessing.There is a lot of experience that would have been like a supernatural. This special presentation of Tantra Screen on the contribution of women tantrikas to Tantra is an attempt to express the same sensations. 

These women, who came out on difficult paths of Tantra, are also often known as female tantric and female Aghori. His entire life and his entire life feel devoted to the styled system and the practice of Aghor.

Tantra and Aghor Path These are two distinct and esoteric spiritual paths that also give a strong challenge to the norms and pre-conceived notions of society. His goal is to have a direct Rabta (Communicating Link) with divine power. His connection remains associated with this supreme power. When they talk in private, there is no one in front but they have a very cautious feeling of where they are and talking stories. He also took notice of reaching us and at the same time he exposed one or two things of our mind to the same supreme power and said, now it also has reached here, remove its crisis in your court. Along with this, we also told that this problem of life should now be considered as ending from this day or date। Many such things were known only to us and whose deep concern was also only with us.   

Interestingly, unlike their male counterparts, who often attract more attention, these women have managed more to hide their practices and knowledge from the world's eyes. They live in remote villages and ashrams away from the hustle and bustle of modern life. Her practice is also often completely secret. Her days are spent in intense spiritual practice, meditation and study. She is taught the mysteries of Tantra and Aghor at an early age, often by her mother or grandmother, who has inherited this knowledge for generations. The glow of this practice can be seen in their eyes and also on their faces. His body language keeps on realizing that some power is flowing with his words, words, her fingers and hands raised in the posture of blessings. Her mysterious smile and silent anger, even a slight staring feeling in her eyes, without saying much about what to stay away from. 

The common people consider them to be terrible or anything like that, but women tantrikas and women aghoris are also fully respected by the people of the local population. Along with this love and respect, these people are afraid of them in a way.It is a silent fear. Shows its effect without any sound. People living around consider her their protector. Many people, bewildered by the difficulties and crises of life, come to them from far away drawers and bow their heads. Many people are also very educated in Tantra and Spirituality. After finishing the studies of the world, she felt that nothing was kept in this study, now some exercises are necessary in this field. 

What the knowers of Tantra's world say in this regard surprised many times। It is said that these seekers of Tantra have very difficult and extreme accomplishment and power like victory over elements, spirits and even death. They use their abilities to heal the sick, witchcraft, and guide lost souls. However, their power also has to be paid heavily.  Their practice becomes even more difficult. Where is it easy to earn this power! 

They have to maintain a strict code of conduct. They all follow this discipline as well. Many stages of cultivation avoid sexual pleasure and even touching others. They lead harsh lives, often wearing only the ashes of the dead as a symbol of their devotion to the Sadhana Marg. Despite this ability to make every comfort facility available to you in the blink of an eye, this tantric Aghori women live extremely difficult lives without any complaints. The female tantric peoples are saving the system with very responsibly. Extremely difficult and long fasting strengthens their creak and mental capacity. The female tantric practitioners  are also preserving the system and its  secrets with very careful responsibly.

Despite their confinement, these women do not remain isolated from the world. They also often travel to other villages and cities to offer their services to the needy. They also act as intermediaries between spiritual and worldly people. Somewhere away from the hustle and bustle of modern life is the world of these women tantric practitioners where an unnamed attraction also arises.There is also a supernatural fragrance in the air there. 

Along with this, these tantric people act as guides and protectors for those who seek their advice. They are also known to host gatherings and celebrations where they share their knowledge and intelligence with each other. Despite all this, their practice and lifestyle remain secret strictly. We will keep trying to bring many more such things to you in other articles in near future.
