Much of the energy that goes on within the community is set up to be so safe. There is something I want to say to those of you even thinking about interacting with the sexual energy or playing in the whole tantric arena, (even though the tantric arena in the West is way watered down to what it is anywhere else). The paces which you would get put through anywhere else, in Africa or in India, or any of those places, most of the psychological make up of most westerners wouldn’t even be able to stand it, because it is not just dealing with sex. It is dealing with you coming to grips with all of the opposites that you deal with in your life, and bring it into a oneness. All this fear and the catering to fear that we have and all these ideas of safety, and keeping people safe… there is no such thing! No such thing exists on this planet. There is nobody taking care of you. You’ve got to be conscious and present and in your body. So, what I would love to see, is all of you be able to leave here and go out in the world totally unafraid to risk your life, to have a life. You’ve almost got to put your life on the line in order to fully live. So, if you’re totally looking for safety, if you’re looking for somewhere, where you’re not gonna be uncomfortable, maybe you picked the wrong place. So, I wanna do a disclaimer up front that you might get a little uncomfortable… I don’t know. But I know that if you will go through whatever uncomfortableness arises, you will be a bigger person for it. Now, will I be doing anything to make you intentionally uncomfortable? No. I have no desire to do that. But at the same time, will I push your buttons? Maybe. I’ve been known to do such things. And I tell you too, any person you come around, if they’re carrying energy, they’re dangerous. Even when I come in contact with women just in general, in my life, I let them know up front, I’m totally lethal. Death is practically immanent. Meaning that everything which you have known and thought was important about you is totally at risk, because most of what you’ve known and thought about yourself is far from real. And when people start snatching these things away, you’ll start screaming bloody murder.

Hi,
I appreciate your thoughts about buttons and triggers and I wonder what your thougts about teacher student relationships? Is there an ethical guideline in your teaching? Can you point me to this on your web page?
Thank you
