(Parents, siblings, friends, family, lovers, mentors, teachers, etc).<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div>You have to create internal space and conditions wherein you are ready and intent on opening up yourself to complete connection.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Sexual connection is easier (we think), because it seems like connection but we can tend to go about it without much actual connection beyond the physical.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Complete connection is connection across every element of our being, which are conveniently enough represented by the chakras. Even if you don&#8217;t buy into the ideas of chakras, they very tidily give us a map for various important aspect of ourselves:<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div>Root &#8211; safety, trust, grounding<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div>Sacral &#8211; emotions, creativity, sexuality<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div>Solar Plexus &#8211; will, power, independent self<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div>Heart &#8211; compassion, love, integration<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div>Throat &#8211; personal truth, expression<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div>Third Eye &#8211; perception, intuition, inspiration<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div>Crown &#8211; wisdom, transcendence, unity<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>It can be scary to connect even just the heart because all relationships end in pain via death or desertion. To open yourself in this way is to guarantee pain. Or is it? Could complete sustained connection be the key to not feeling the pain of separation, even in death? Could complete connection be the key to an infinite, permanent connection that never separates but just morphs into something more?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>It helps, but is not required, to first connect with yourself across each aspect of your being before you connect with another. You must be complete unto yourself, although you might have some baggage still.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Given how the universe is dichotomy, it makes complete sense that only through complete connection can we transcend separateness and its associated pain.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>I think it is time for a new kind of Tantra&#8230; A practice whose goal is complete connection to yourself, your reality, and others. Sexuality is one critical component of that, but only one of many.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Enlightenment through connection to self, reality, truth and others &#8211; Purna Asatti (from the Sanskrit) &#8211; complete connection. To experience the oneness, you have to live the oneness, and there is no oneness without connection.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Complete connection is about seeking and fostering a complete connection to your self (mind, body, spirit, development, life, manifesting, etc), your humanity, your past and future, your life here and now, your money, this moment, other people, places and things.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The oneness or unity that everyone talks about and seeks is a feeling of connection to all things. Love is a feeling of connection to yourself and others. Health, strength and gut instinct come from connection to your body. Wisdom and truth come from connection to this moment. &#8230; You get the idea. It&#8217;s all about connection.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>What do you need to connect with? What would it be to feel connected to that?<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The foundational teaching defining Purna Asatti, or complete connection: connecting fully to self, others, and reality across every aspect of being, mapped to the chakras, and reframing tantra as enlightenment through connection rather than sexuality alone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":572,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","episode_type":"audio","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","footnotes":""},"project_category":[1886,1882,1888,1883,1885,31,1884],"project_tag":[293,310,140,53,654,180,280,329,282,732,311,111,51,171,89,156,775,281,183,119,153,70,288,221,771,309,128,253,772,130,57,773,80,655,86,90,112,113,197,285,284,283,774,108,87,776],"series":[],"class_list":["post-1065","project","type-project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","project_category-57challenges","project_category-business","project_category-consciousness","project_category-couples","project_category-money","project_category-observations","project_category-society","project_tag-beliefs","project_tag-body","project_tag-change","project_tag-choosing","project_tag-complete-connection","project_tag-connection","project_tag-cycle","project_tag-death","project_tag-development","project_tag-ego","project_tag-emotions","project_tag-family","project_tag-fate","project_tag-freedom","project_tag-friends","project_tag-guides","project_tag-health","project_tag-human","project_tag-identity","project_tag-knowing","project_tag-life","project_tag-love","project_tag-manifesting","project_tag-mind","project_tag-moment","project_tag-money","project_tag-nature","project_tag-others","project_tag-people","project_tag-perception","project_tag-perspective","project_tag-places","project_tag-presence","project_tag-purna-asatti","project_tag-purpose","project_tag-reality","project_tag-relationships","project_tag-self","project_tag-self-discovery","project_tag-self-growth","project_tag-self-development","project_tag-stages","project_tag-things","project_tag-transparency","project_tag-truth","project_tag-wealth"],"acf":{"recommend_blurb":"For readers ready to understand the whole philosophy of complete connection at its source.
