Actually, you have no idea what you are talking about
.
As you know, I had a ritvikâcharya teach me mahârudrâbhishekam. Over a period
of 5-6 years he also imparted much of the Vedika view of values. According to
him, the Tantrika view was that the universe was actualized by limitless
shakti-s that structured its being, patterns and interactions.
The only thing he wouldn't yield about was teaching me the mechanics of
agni-hotra (although he performed one for me at the installation of my
shiva-lingam). I believe he considered me too far from being a renouncer and
therefore prone to get into trouble with an agni-hotra ... all because if done
properly, the yajñamana receives the results quickly and decisively.
You also forget that I have a Vajrayana Tantric and Dzogchen teacher.
Certainly different practices but when he first saw my altar he pointed to the
traditionally carved shiva lingam and commented “original Tantra”.
All this means that your evaluation is a parody of a Willy-ism - which is as
much value as I can give it.
