Pink hat Tantra heart based practices, inspired by Rose Tantra / lineage?

Pink hat Tantra

Pink Tantra: to my understanding is a path of heart felt consciousness and connection.  Celebration of sensuality in a wholesome expression and experience of the divine. Emphasising the cultivation of presence, love, compassion, respect, surrender and intimacy, often practiced in the context of romantic relationship with a trusted partner. 💖

Presented here are inspirational insights exploring the concept / phrase Pink hat Tantra, with the intention of deeping in the connection to the divine.

To show the different styles of Tantra, their are colours associated with each type of teachings. White Hat or white Tantra (pure/ inner journey) the right hand path, is the recommended starting point and the foundation of Tantra traditionally, where you practice meditation, purification, breathwork, yoga (Hatha, Kundalini, Kriya ect. ), to become liberated, with devotion to heart awareness to transcending ego – desire, attachment. Training the mind to with (Chanting, mantras, mandalas, spiritual studies ect.), and through the bodies awareness (Mudras, yoga, exploring senses) to get into deeper levels of awareness. Visualization techniques, as you advance embodying different deities wisdom and vibration. White Tantra or the right hand path is an inner journey, cultivating love, peace, surrender and presence.

From these foundations, if you felt the calling you could then explore the other forms of Tantra, expressed here through the colours.

The term “hat” is used to describe different practices or lineages within Buddhism. Were they would wear these coloured hats during ceremonies. The term pink hat is something different I believe, generalising Tantra into sub groups, exploring this later in article. This concept of colours I’ve found over time, talking with friends and at workshops, in videos and online.

Vajrayana sects of Tibetan Buddhism is one of the Tantric lineages. Hinduism is the other major source of traditional Tantra and influenced Buddhist Tantric teachings.

Different lineages within Buddhism have eg Yellow hat (Gelugpa lead by the Dalai Lama), black hat etc. Which is were the term Pink hat has possibly been inspired by.

White Light Oracle, Enter the Luminous Heart of the Sacred, by Alana Fairchild is one of my favourites.
