• To suggest that tantric massage by merged with "Erotic" massage is a typical suggestion born out of Western thought about the practice of tantra. Good grief, people, isn't there anyone else here who studies Eastern Tantric Shivaist Teachings from Kashmir, Kaula tradition, Spanda and Pratyabhijna schools? This whole discussion is stunning! To say a someone created a tantric massage a couple decades ago is absolutely preposterous. The practice of tantra is 5000 years old. Daniel Odier writes of performing tantric massage with his masters back in the 50's (see the book, Tantric Quest).

Then you'd better learn how to cite sources, because nobody has any reason to believe you, anon. Quite frankly, you're full of it. —Hanuman Das 05:33, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

What do you think I just did, you idiot! I cited Daniel Odier, a well respected expert on the subject of tantra. Read his book, "Tantra Quest". Good greif, go read some books and learn something!

By "cite the sources", I believe Hanuman Das meant add the information to the article along with <ref> tags, author, title, page number, ISBN as documented in WP:CITE. That's a citation. Mentioning it on the talk page is not adequate. Frater Xyzzy 16:07, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Erotic energy?

I think that in any encyclopedia such terms should be avoided as non-factual and mystic. 87.103.221.205 13:17, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

I agree. The article would need to say clearly who holds that view. --Allen (talk) 05:27, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
