Sexual Solutions: A Guide For Men And The Women Who Love Them by Michael Castleman, Touchstone, New York, 1980 This is a down-to-earth, no nonsense review of male sexual problems and techniques to improve lovemaking. A little dry and devoid of spirit for us, but worthwhile for its helpful exercises. Taoist Secrets Of Love: Cultivating Male Sexual Energy by Mantak Chia and Michael Winn, Aurora Press, Santa Fe, New Mexico, 1984 This is an excellent presentation of the Taoist approach to male sexuality which prescribes and is apparently successful in achieving complete seminal retention for men. It has some powerful exercises, but is too strict and preachy for Tantrikas like us.

Tantra, The Supreme Understanding: Discourses on the Tantric Way of Tilopa’s Song of Mahamudra by Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh Osho’s discourse on Tilopa’s Song of Mahamudra moves beyond mere interpretation. Osho explains the essence of Tantra: “It has no attitude to look at life. It has no concepts, it is not a philosophy. It is not even a religion, it has no theology. It doesn’t believe in words, theories, doctrines.” Tantra says “yes” to everything, moving beyond dualism — it is acceptance. Osho shatters preconceptions, traditions, and ideas. His discourse is powerful, poetic and illuminating. From Sex To Superconsciousness by Osho Rajneesh Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh, now known as Osho, present the most amazing discussion of sexuality and consciousness that we’ve ever seen. He explains why sex is the gateway to spirituality and the destructive effects of condemning sexuality. This is a must read for anyonewho is interested in a more healthy and balanced approach to sexuality than most of our current spiritual traditions provide.
