Gay Tantra
Gay Tantra by William Schindler, published by Lulu.com on July 7, 2017, is a thought-provoking exploration of spiritual practices tailored for the LGBTQ+ community. This 188-page book addresses the need for a sex-positive spiritual framework that embraces and celebrates gay identities, encouraging readers to engage with their senses rather than suppress them. Schindler emphasizes the importance of integrating all aspects of self to foster a robust and healthy gay identity, which he argues can enhance spiritual growth.
In this edition, readers will find a discussion on the fluidity of gender and identity, highlighting the coexistence of masculine and feminine elements within everyone. The text advocates for recognizing the power of same-sex love as a catalyst for self-awareness and enlightenment. Schindler’s insights aim to dismantle feelings of shame or unworthiness associated with being gay, asserting that such feelings hinder spiritual fulfillment. This book serves as a guide for those seeking to deepen their spiritual practice while affirming their identity within the context of LGBTQ+ studies and social science.
Official synopsis Publisher
We gay folk, who inhabit bodies of the type we naturally desire, require a sex-positive spiritual practice that celebrates and utilizes our gay being instead of opposing it. We need a spiritual practice that teaches us how to use our senses instead of merely shutting them off or repressing them. We need a practice that empowers us to integrate all the rejected aspects of self to form a strong, healthy gay identity, which confers a spiritual advantage in deep spiritual practice. We need a spiritual practice that recognizes that gender and gender identity are fluid, that we all contain elements of the masculine and feminine. We need a spiritual practice that recognizes not only that same-sex love is possible, but that our love can powerfully energize a deep quest for Self-awareness and enlightenment. We need to realize that any feeling of shame or unworthiness connected to our gay being shackles our spirit and blocks us from the full realization of God/dess within, for the Divine Being is gay, too.
