Human sexuality is a problematic thing. It gets us into trouble,
breaks our hearts, involves us in painful compulsive relationships,
even transmits deadly diseases. It would surely scare us off, if it
were not for its siren call to higher forms of union and moments of
bodily bliss. When examined more closely, however, and especially
when we turn our gaze inward to see what sexual arousal is doing to
our consciousness, we find we are in an altered state-a form of
"erotic trance" that reveals dimensions of ourselves, our partner,
and possibilities for human life that otherwise would not have been
discovered. -- Procreative sex forms the foundation of the nuclear
family and the glue that holds society together-what we might call
the "horizontal" potential of sex. Tantra, however, is about its
"vertical" dimension-about "tuning" our awareness to bring higher,
spiritual realities into focus. It all begins by mastering our
bodily reflexes. This first volume of Tantra and Erotic Trance
deals with the preliminary stages of mastery and the
transformations of consciousness that they make possible. The whole
project is imagined as a ladder with its feet on the earth and its
top leaning into Indra's heaven. Each rung represents a new level
of awareness, a mastery of what just the rung below had appeared to
us as a poorly understood gift. -- John Ryan Haule holds a
doctorate in religious studies from Temple University. He is a
Jungian analyst trained in Zurich and a faculty member of the C.G.
Jung Institute-Boston. In addition to Tantra and Erotic Trance I
and II, his publications include: Divine Madness: Archetypes of
Romantic Love; The Love Cure: Therapy Erotic and Sexual; Perils of
the Soul: Ancient Wisdom and the New Age; The Ecstasies of St.
Francis: The Way of Lady Poverty; and Jung in the 21st Century, in
two volumes: Evolution and Archetype and Synchronicity and Science.
