This episode covers tantra which is a very elastic term from the east meaning—more or less— certain kinds spiritual practices that originated in India. We also discuss neo-tantra which was Osho’s term for sexual/somatic exercises to liberate the sexually repressed, and we talk about why the Osho cult got so corrupt. Bard says that real Tantra is more about the ‘adultification’ of the world than instant gratification.
