Movies in the eyes of Tantra Yoga

Modern yogis have notices that through the medium of cinema it is possible to transmit spiritual messages in a very effective and deep way. Off course, not all Yogis will agree with that, I'm referring here mostly to the Tantrics (the Yoga adepts of Tantra). Since in Tantra the yogi is working with the feminine aspect, shakti, which is the manifestation of the universe (maya in Yoga) in it's totality. Therefore, in the tantric path you find the yogi is not trying to escape the world but rather experience it, learn from it and mostly - to control it. The world being Shakti - energy - the yogi wishes to control the energy and use it to reach enlightenment.

What does this has to do with cinema? well, a lot. Because cinema is part of reality, manifestation. And it is an excellent tool to experience emotions which are high and powerful, that the tantric yogi can use to channel to his higher centers and transform into pure consciousness.

The big question is how would you know, which movies are having a spiritual message or transmit a specific beneficial state? and which are not. Also, on what exactly should a tantric yogi focus on and in which movie?

Well, the answer to those questions is this blog! here I aim to give you a clear yogic review of movies and a wonderful insight into the world of Tantra and it's view of reality.

In the following posts I will start the movies review. Stay tuned.
