What is Tantra? From a Lama!

Welcome to Tantra Talks, the podcast where we dive into the transformative power of Tantra—exploring everything from pleasure and intimacy to sacred spiritual teachings. In this episode, we’re joined by Lama Tashi Dundrup, who shares profound insights into how Tantra can heal, awaken, and elevate our lives in more ways than we often realize.

Lama Tashi explains how lineage-based Tantra can help shift us from a state of mental chaos or neurotic behavior to a place of profound connection and inner peace. It’s a tool for understanding, healing, and ultimately transcending the ego. 

The Human Condition
According to Lama Tashi, the human experience is often marked by neurosis—a mental state of being constantly overwhelmed by thoughts and anxieties. Left unchecked, neurosis can become psychosis. Tantra offers us a way to break free from this cycle. Through the use of meditation, connection, movement and pleasure practices, we can heal from the emotional and mental dysfunctions that hold us back from experiencing life fully. 

Tantra as Medicine for the Soul
Tibetan 5 Element Tantra is designed to heal, restore balance, and bring us back to our natural state of peace and joy. At its heart, Tantra is a remedy for the dysfunction and drama that comes with the human condition. Whether we are dealing with emotional trauma, relationship struggles, or simply the noise of our everyday lives, Tantra provides a path to deeper understanding, healing, and awakening.
