Samsara's Journey into Tantra  :  11/2/13 


If i was to succeed ever in such a powerful world i had to find a a way of gaining some control and boosting my confidence . Curiosity led me to resources about the world of Tantra . I read books to educate myself , joined massage forums to network with other therapists , and i used meditation to help relax and focus . But the biggest lesson of all came from a new client who made an appointment to see me . When we met initially he explained that somebody had referred him to me .

Silently in my head i was quite excited at the thought that i was proving my ability in Tantric massage . Over a period of a few weeks the client became a regular , we enjoyed each other's company and shared stories .

Then the bombshell . He asked me if i wanted to change my life and make a vast amount of money ?  In this day and age who doesn't ?  His proposition was to support me in building my business and getting things established .
Now , i know my head can be a little dizzy  at times and i was thinking : "Yeah whats the punch line ? " 

Feet in first , I asked him , "What will you get out of this , and what is the aim ? "
He confided he had done something similar previously , and fell in love with the therapist , but it was awkward because he was married and she had a partner .
Unfortunately , they weren't together anymore , but i knew so much so much about this person and her life ( though i hadn't ever met her physically ) , it was kind of like a love triangle .

Our new partnership blossomed . He had more experience in the world of Tantra , promised he would market me professionally , and set up a website on the understanding i gave him 15% of my earnings . A win-win situation , it seemed, 
Weeks past and my work started to decline : unfortunately he didn't stick to what we agreed and i started to panic and feel upset .
Failure wasn't an option ; action was required . I took a crash course on marketing myself and instructed somebody to design a website . Things started to improve again , my confidence growing and very fortunate to meet very nice people through my Tantra practise , 

One day , I was chatting to one of my very nice clients about the business arrangement : he wasn't shy in coming forward with comments . Clearly upset by what i had shared with him , he said the arrangement wasn't a fair one and was immoral . I needed time to absorb this and has target to meet , to pay my business partner . Every morning my business partner called to see how things were ?  He said he had a new business idea to improve things and suggested i employed another therapist . { To be continued } ......
