[b]~ Buddhism: Wisdom Bliss ~
Welcome to Buddhism: Wisdom Bliss, a Buddhist forum created in October 2004 for the sharing and discussion of authentic Buddhadharma (Buddhist teachings), in order that we may attain Wisdom and Bliss in our lives.
I would also like to clarify certain confusion that may have arisen recently. Our forum has no affiliation whatsoever with other forums like [--] SEA OF AFFINITY )=l, and neither does the forum owner of Sea of Affinity claim that it is a Buddhist forum. Much of their practises are also not part of Buddhism, but is part of cultural and traditional practises that is not related to Buddhism.

May I remind all that such practice ,if not under close supervision of a Rinpoche ,are very harmful if any minute of Wrathful and Vegeance feeling arise
Buddhist are to seek proper guidance before carry out such practice and visualisation,else will ruin ones career and family life due to the karmic impact ,if not tackled tactfully

This issue is applicable also to
Compassionate Affinity and its Affiliate Forums -
Huh their forum got post tantric teachings? Anyway I think it is a timely reminder for all people who have yet to be initiated into Tantric practices and yet think they can do these practices without proper guidance from qualified masters...
It is important to note that tantra without strong view of Emptiness may even lead one towards the lower realms, such as if you do wrathful practices wrongly you may even fall into the ghost realm without the View of Emptiness because you did not transform the emotions (such as desires, anger, and etc) into wisdom, but instead, create even more negative karma in the process.. See E-Sangha topic: Wrathful Diety Practice, Possible Low Rebirth I think Bohiruci would know more about this topic as he has learnt some of these practices from lamas and rinpoche.. I do not practise tantra and only heard a little.
And worse if one abuses or uses tantra for the wrong purpose or for other personal reasons (some people combine tantra with some other magic/occult practices etc, many other things) other than to attain Enlightenment and to liberate oneself and others, one can even be reborn into the vajra hell, which is the hell specifically for those who have committed against the samaya vows and practised tantra deviantly. This may sound heavy, but it is not, it is just cause and effect, it is karma. So to those interested in tantra please take note and learn under a qualified teacher. -
