VAJEEKARANA 'TANTRA'
There is a whole specialty called Vajeekarana in Ayurveda, which is to
address infertility both in men and women, to improve libido and ways to have
healthy children. In classical ayurvedic text of Ashtanga Hridaya a couple without
issues is compared to a tree without fruits or seeds!
In this chapter of Ashtanga Hridaya treads more on the materialistic path
where it deals with treatments and methods to improve libido and sexual vigor.
This is an aberration of Ayurvedic ethical code of conduct (sadvrithas)
This might have crept in to ayurveda to satisfy the needs of Kings and
Nobles who were the patrons of Ayurveda during ancient times.
It is recommended to undergo a panchakarma cleansing procedure before
undergoing Rasayana-Vajeekarana treatments (Geriatric and Aphrodisiac
treatments)
Ayurveda reccomends when to indulge in sex according to season; rarely in summer,
sometimes in spring & autumn and anytime in winter without
restrictions.
Even though yogic practices totally urges us to desist from sexual acts at
the higher level of yoga, some asanas, pranayama and kundali yoga
practice can increase libido and vigor and also has found effective in certain
sexual disorders like erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation.
