Tantra, here defined, is "the ancient spiritual discipline upon which yoga is based." This is a brief, wide-sized volume filled with drawings & with meditation techniques, words about affirmations, physical health, visualization. McClure is a very good writer indeed. Her words have wings & fly elegantly into the mind. "My meditation has always brought me into focus, provided me with strength to prevail over pain & loss, & inspired me to continue to find my way to health & positivity.' Unpretentious views of your perfect nature, the circle of love, the psycho-spiritual anatomy, mental & emotional well-being, spiritual growth & the changes that occur, such as monthly cycles, pregnancy, birth, sexuality. Postures, suggestions, explanations of such existences as the subtle body, the kundalini, the chakras. "Tantra is not the 'yoga of sex' - it is the yoga of everything.

Tantra does not favor suppression of the instincts, but rather control, whereby the mind is always directed toward spirituality." McClure is a trustworthy guide, a spiritual friend whose advice is as calm & as sensible as our own real hearts & minds.
