Kinky Buddhism: Or How to Understand Buddhism and the Guru-Disciple relationship

In the hushed corridors of spirituality, where enlightenment is pursued through serene meditation and profound contemplation, an unexplored realm beckons, shrouded in intrigue, sensuality, and liberation. Welcome to the world of "Kinky Buddhism." and the second book in the Tantric Revolutionary Center series of introductions to Buddhism.


While the term may initially raise an eyebrow or provoke a sly smile, this book delves far deeper than mere titillation. It unearths a hidden facet of Buddhism, one that marries the ancient wisdom of the East with the provocative allure of the unconventional. It offers a path to transcendence that challenges conventional notions of spirituality, encouraging seekers to explore the depths of their desires and embrace the uncharted territories of their innermost selves.


Kinky Buddhism is not an endorsement of hedonism or the reckless pursuit of pleasure. Instead, it is a reflection on how the relationships in Buddhism in general and Vajrayana in particular are based on asymmetries of power and why is this.


In this book, we will embark on a journey that explores the profound intersections of Buddhism and kink. We will unravel the paradoxes, confront the taboos, and reveal the transformative potential that arises when the two seemingly divergent worlds converge.
 

At its core, Kinky Buddhism is about empowerment. It is about recognizing that our enjoyments, when approached with mindfulness and consent, can be powerful agents of healing and self-discovery that takes place with one's Guru.

The Compassionate Sorcerer: A Translation of the Spell of the Names of Lord Avalokiteshvara

The magical side of Buddhism is one of the tradition’s most closely guarded secret. Not because it is hidden, but because western imperialistic tradition has shunned the ritual, sorcerous side of the Dharma in favor of a more rationalistic approach. And yet, like an unlaid ghost, the vast literary corpus known as Dharani sits, begging for study and practice.

​

In The Compassionate Sorcerer, the first on our series of Dharani Incantations, Lamas Dorje Sherab & Federico Andino walk you through an exciting area of Buddhist practice: the visualization and chanting of magic formulae called Dharanis.

 

In a clear, easy to follow language they will:

  • Explain the classification of Dharanis in Buddhism

  • Talk about the main figure of this booklet, the Buddha Avalokiteshvara, Lord of Compassion

  • Provide you with a new translation of the incantation called the 108 names of Lord Avalokiteshvara

  • And give you a ritual guideline for when and how to do the practice

Banner Mara Roast 2025.png

Burn, Mara Burn

Yes, the time has come again.

The time when we gather to roast Mara and practice to liberate Samsara.

We liked the Portland experience so much last year that this year it's the official Mara Roast Location!

We'll be there from September 29 through October 4, doing teachings, yogas and sorceries together!

Ok, so where in Portland, OR?

Guru Prajwal's temple, near Hawthorne and Chavez.

​

1405 SE 40th Avenue Portland OR 97214-4406

Ok, there is a cost, right? And what does it cover?

Yes, sadly there is a cost.

It takes money and effort to travel, translate and host, so we need to ask for your collaboration. This will cover the cost of the teachings; they're five days full of teachings you will literally not find anywhere else. 

You have to provide your food and lodgins; we will give the teachings, plus all the files and documents you need to practice.

​

As an aside, we will define one session to be streamed, but most of it won't. This is an encounter; we want to meet and practice together. There's plenty of teachings every month online, but this is different.

​

The cost is going to be on a sliding window; why? Because there's a limit to the space that we have and we need to set everything up beforehand. 

​

For March, the Early Bird ticket is $650 for everything.

April to July, the ticket is $750.

August and September is going to be $900. So get in early!

​

You can get your ticket right here.

​

Oh, I want to participate, but I can't afford it.

We understand. We also wanted to practice and it took time and effort. 

There's a scholarship option.

This covers two things:

1-The lodging: There's a chance to crash in the temple. The space is limited and you should bring a sleeping bag, but it's doable.

2-The teachings: There's limited teaching space, but if you want to come, we'll try to make you room.

​

The only thing we need to emphasize is that everything is limited. We will need to make a decision, and it will be nothing personal if we cannot grant you either or both of them. But we need to make sure that the event is viable. Please do not sign up via paypal if you selected a scholarship option until we get back to you. 

​

The scholarship form is here:

Mara Roast 2025 - Scholarship form

This is the form to participate of the Mara Roast via Scholarship. Please do not sign up on the Paypal link if you request scholarship until you hear from us; there's a limited space to participate and to teach, so we will have to make a divination on how many scholarship spaces there are.
