Bruce Anderson has studied with Amazonian and Plains Indians shamans as well as with Tibetan, East Indian, and Egyptian tantra teachers. He is a third-level cobra breath practitioner and teaches “Tantra for Men” at the Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Center.
Tantra for Gay Men is the first guide for gay men to the art of tantra, an ancient skill that has been misinterpreted in the West as a form of super sex. However, as a practice that combines sex and spirit – especially the “celebration and worship of the penis” – Tantra “is the spiritual path most appropriate for gay men in the 21st century. . . . Our outsider status gives us a great opportunity for unique insight.”
In its eight empowering chapters, Anderson takes his readers through the spiritual concepts and essential techniques of tantra, giving us “a better understanding of what Tantra is and [providing] exercises and rituals that will allow you to incorporate Tantric practice into your daily life.”
