Alan Steinfeld is founder of NewRealities.  In this blog he reflects on famliy, persoanl insights and his current  spiritual investigations. 

Look here every Monday for the next Chapter:

Some of this content is explicit, but it features a true aspect of the Indian tantra tradition. It is has been called the left hand path, because it embraces what many consider taboo.  But much has been written about tantra in the West, and much of its original essence seems to have been lost.  It has become, watered-down and Americanized.  It is not just confined to the embrace of sexuality, but is part of much larger system of Kasmiri Shavism tradition from which its stems. This includes mantra (sound prayer), yantra (sacred images) & sometimes mudras (hand and body positions).  Basically though it can be said that mantra + yantra = tantra.  Sound and light is sacred in the body.

NewRealities does is not condone or condemn this approach to spirituality. But we are here to provide a space for a startling way of understanding an opening to spirit.

Bhairavi writes: "Here it is. Beware as it started as a personal diary, so some parts are R or even  X-rated! xoxoxo But the depth of the path is there. Also, it's very rough with mistakes as well. You can also read on our website http://www.nikhiltantra.org  about right-hand tantra in this family.  -  Love, Bhairavi

Bhairavi has also recently did a New Realities podcast.  Go to:

Paul Lowe has spent his life investigating the maximum potential for human beings and has found it to be vast, limitless and available to everybody. For forty years he travelled around the world, encouraging  
people to move beyond what is normally thought of as possible or impossible. He has a remarkable facilty to show people what they are not seeing about themselves, and shares his insights with caring, and perhaps most importantly, humour.

Since retiring from public life in 2007, Paul has continued to send regular emails to a group of of people that were involved in his work and a few others, responding to our state of consciousness, situations in the world and the evolution of our human destiny.

This blog is NewRealities attempt to bring Paul's observations to a greater audience. Feel free to post any comments about what you read here. While Paul may not respond directly, we want to make this an open dialogue among our readers.
