[edit] Quote from the author
- "I wrote my book without censorship to the judgments which usually inhibit us in this world. I wanted to free myself from the hypocrisy and the deceit with which we often live when we can't accept ourselves for our true selves. This means our most intimate selves, as well, and that is where Tantric teachings are helpful to our societies."
