The Art of Everyday Ecstasy Margot Anand Most people think of ecstasy in terms of sexual ecstasy, but Margot Anand expands our definition of ecstasy and shows how we can harness its energy to help us live, work, and love more passionately, joyfully, and with true spiritual focus. Our modern work-obsessed, stress-filled culture – what Anand calls the “anti-ecstatic conspiracy” – has dulled our spirits, thrown us off balance and alienated us from meaningful, everyday experiences. In this inspirational journey, Anand explains how experiences of ecstasy can help us move beyond pain and doubt to reach our highest potential. 1999, Broadway Books |

Kiss of the Yogini: “Tantric Sex” in its South Asian Contexts
David Gordon White Sweeping away centuries of misunderstandings and misrepresentations, White returns to original texts, images, and ritual practices to reconstruct the history of South Asian Tantra from the medieval period to the present day. This work of scholarship traces developments in Tantric practice as external ritual practices increasingly become incorporated into the body of the practitioner. He focuses extensive attention on the role of erotico-mystical ritual practices in South Asian Tantra and critiques the modern forms of “Tantra” marketed by New Age entrepreneurs. 2003, University of Chicago Press |

Passionate Enlightenment: Women in Tantric Buddhism Miranda Shaw The crowning cultural achievement of medieval India, Tantric Buddhism is known in the west primarily for the sexual practices of its adherents who strive to transform erotic passion into spiritual ecstasy. Miranda Shaw convincingly argues that the enlightenment thus attempted was not for men only and presents extensive new evidence of the outspoken and independent female founders of the Tantric movement and their creative role in shaping its distinctive vision of gender relations and sacred sexuality. 1995, Princeton University Press |

Tantra: Sex, Secrecy, Politics and Power in the Study of Religion
Hugh B. Urban Tracing the complex genealogy of Tantra as a category within the history of religions, Hugh B. Urban reveals how it has been formed through the interplay of popular and scholarly imaginations. Tantra emerges as a product of mirroring and misrepresentation at work between east and west. Combining historical detail, textual analysis, popular cultural phenomena, and critical theory, this book shows Tantra as a shifting amalgam of fantasies, fears, and wish fulfillment, at once native and Other, that strikes at the very heart of our constructions of the exotic Orient and the contemporary West. 2003, University of California Press |

Tantric Quest: An Encounter with Absolute Love Daniel Odier Daniel Odier writes about his search to find a Tantric master. On the verge of giving up, he retreats to a small village in India where he finds a great Tantric master, Devi, in the forest. She agrees to take him on as her student and warns him that his journey will be difficult. As the master-student bond is strengthened, Devi’s teachings become more deep and subtle. The final part of the time spent with Devi involves his initiation into Tantric ritual sexuality, the joining of Shiva and Shakti, which causes the rising of the Kundalini, the sacred spiritual force that purifies the body. Odier also relates the challenges of coming back to the “real world” to use what he learned. 1997, Inner Traditions |
