<strong>The</strong> great significance which the <strong>Dalai</strong> L<strong>am</strong>a accords the Kalachakra Tantra and its worldwide<br />

distribution, demands that all of his political activities be interpreted in the light of the visions and<br />

intentions of the Time Tantra. <strong>The</strong> Kalachakra Tantra is a major political event. It is the magic<br />

metapolitical instrument with which the Kundun hopes to conquer the West and the rest of the world.<br />

He himself, or rather the forces and powers which operate behind him, wish(es) to become the ruler of<br />

history and time itself. [5]<br />

Statements of the Fourteenth <strong>Dalai</strong> L<strong>am</strong>a on sexuality and sexual magic<br />

We know almost nothing (publicly) from the Kundun about the eight highest initiations in the<br />

Kalachakra Tantra and the associated sexual magic rites. Outwardly the god-king presents a strictly<br />

asexual image. In answer to the question what he thought about sex, he replied in Playboy: “My<br />

goodness! You ask a 62-year-old monk who has been celibate his entire life a thing like that. I don’t<br />

have much to say about sex — other than that it is completely okay if two people love each<br />

other” (Playboy, German edition, March 1998, p. 46). Or he resolves the delicate topic with colloquial<br />

humor, as for ex<strong>am</strong>ple when he quotes the Indian scholar, Nagarjuna, with a three-line thought on the<br />

question of erotic love:<br />

If one is itchy, then one scratches himself.<br />

Better than any number of scratches<br />

However, is when one does not itch at all.<br />

(<strong>Dalai</strong> L<strong>am</strong>a XIV, 1993a, p. 301)
