THE YOGA OF EXPERIENCING NECTAR
The main purpose of practising the yoga of experiencing nectar
is to transform our pleasures into the spiritual path. Because
we are beings of the desire realm, we always take delight in
seeing attractive forms, listening to beautiful sounds, smelling
fragrant scents, tasting delicious food, and touching smooth
and sensuous objects. These five objects of enjoyment, known
as 'the five objects of desire', are usually enjoyed with a mind
of attachment. Consequently most actions related to these
objects are unwholesome and lead to experiences of suffering
in the future.
It is only through Dharma practice, particularly the practice
of Secret Mantra, that experience of these five objects of desire
can be transformed into a spiritual path. According to Sutra
teachings, attachment to the five objects of desire is prevented
by recognizing their faults and avoiding contact with them. In
the practice of Secret Mantra, however, our enjoyment of desirable objects is transformed into the spiritual path.
