No Mud, No Lotus: A Memoir of Sex, Betrayal & Spiritual Awakening
€œNo Mud, No Lotus€ is a humorous but gritty journey out of substance addiction and sexual trauma and into Sacred Sex and Neo Tantra! It€s the raw, honest, and intimate biography of a Maya who stars in a controversial documentary film about Tantra: Code name "Tantric Seduction, the Dance of Maya." This isn€t the usual life story of a €œSacred Sexual, Tantric practitioner,€ filled with New Age lingo and promises of ecstatic sexual bliss. Rather, it€s the genuine, real account of a regular girl who seeks emotional and psychological healing from a past of sexual trauma, abuse, and addictions. €œNo Mud, No Lotus€ chronicles Maya€s determined journey to find depth and meaning within love, sex and relationships. It also tells the story of €ÂFather Ron€ who believes it€s Maya€s destiny to stand at his side as a €œSacred sexual healer€Â, and invites Maya to travel the world with him as his mate and to teach €œTantra.€ Together, they go to places where the lines between black and white, shadow and light, the sacred and the profane become maddeningly unclear and contradictory. But Maya€s past already endowed her with strength and a critical eye- assets she didn€t know she had- which serve as her beacon of truth as she negotiates the darkened maze that is Neo Tantra as practiced in sexually over-charged New Age circles.
