Forbidden Tantra
Finding a Master
Finding a tantric master and preparing to undertake these disciplines is difficult, and attempting to learn from those who do not
know them is useless and may even be injurious.
Spectrum of Practices
Those who do know the practices rarely teach
them because many of the practices, like scientific experiments, require a precise
technique in order to yield results. And if the practitioner's intentions are not pure, some
practices can be used for destructive and selfish purposes.
For example there are scriptures which can be classified as "applied tantric science," which
contain formulas which illintentioned tantrics can use for marana (killing), vashikarana
(seduction), mohana (manipulating the minds of others),vidveshana (creating animosity between
two people), and other negative purposes.
But even when the purpose of these practices is not negative, experimenting with them without
the guidance of an adept is like playing with nuclear weapons. This is why the scriptures label
them "forbidden tantra." To discourage misinformed and unprepared students from
undertaking them, the adepts warn: "An aspirant should not even open and read the
scriptures containing these practices (prayoga shastra) without the guidance of a master."
