This our final episode in our exploration of sex, bindu, rajas, and Brahmacharya and the second of two episodes looking at female practitioners especially.
We are joined by Tova Olsson, a scholar of religion, author, and yoga teacher with over 20 years of experience in education.
We discuss:
- The reproductive model of the yogic body vs Kundalini models
- How Tantra relates to methods of conserving vital energies
- How female practitioners can understand sexual continence in spiritual practice.
She holds a MA in Religious Studies and is currently working on her PhD, researching the construction of gender in contemporary tantra in Europe. She is the author of the book "Yoga and Tantra: history, philosophy and mythology" and runs the online school Saraswati-Studies, where she strives to combine an academic, critical understanding with the experience of a long-term practitioner, joining devotion and discernment.
