Editing Foreplay (section)

==Tantric==
Tantric foreplay is the first step in the lovemaking session, according to the [[tantra]] principles. [[Tantric sex]] is against rushing things for the purpose of reaching an [[orgasm]], so tantric foreplay is a way to prepare the body and the mind for the union between the two bodies. The tantric rules say that foreplay must be focused on the preparation before sexual intercourse. Tantric foreplay may include sensual baths between the two partners in a relaxing atmosphere. [[Fragrance oil]] and candles may also be used to set up the mood.<ref>{{cite book |last=Van Lysebeth |first=Andre |title=Tantra: the cult of the feminine |year=2002 |publisher=Motilal Banarsidass Publ. |isbn=978-81-208-1759-3 }}</ref>

Tantric foreplay is only about giving each other time to connect [[Spirituality|spiritually]] and bind. Staring at each other while in a cross-legged position and touching the other's hand palms is a usual foreplay tactic used by tantra practitioners.
Tantric foreplay may also include [[Tantra massage]]s. The massage that is applied, according to the tantric philosophy, is not for reaching orgasms but for giving each other pleasure and connecting at a spiritual level.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://mentalforeplay.com/pag24.php |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111123012018/http://mentalforeplay.com/pag24.php |archive-date=23 November 2011 |title=Tantra foreplay techniques |author=Mental Foreplay online portal |date=18 February 2010 }}</ref>
