It is a system of beliefs that concentrates on mental and physical exercises rather than religious theory. The individual seeks spiritual experiences through the realization of worldly desires. According to Tantric philosophy, the body is a miniature version of the universe. It suggests the use of sex as a yogic exercise. The discipline of maintaining an aroused state without gratification allows the individual to realize the essential purity of sex. The person then enters a mystic state in which he or she is at one with the universe.
