Tantric Latihan is derived from a Indonesian spiritual/intuitive meditation practice (Subud) that focuses on surrendering to receive inner guidance, often through spontaneous body movement, dancing, or unplanned sounds. Participants move voluntarily but spontaneously, letting the body’s wisdom lead rather than the mind. This practice is done with the eyes closed for about 30 minutes, allowing the inner/cosmic energy to work without the control of the mind. Wearing a blindfold minimizes external distractions, enhancing internal awareness and deepening the "feeling space".
No Training Required: This exercise is unique to each individual and is not technically learned or trained.
