USABookNews.com, the premiere online magazine and review website for mainstream and independent publishing houses, announced the winners and finalists of The National Best Books Awards (BBA) 2007. Now in their fourth year, the awards recognize “[w]hat’s hot, new, and noteworthy in the world of books.” The Essence of Tantric Sexuality, by authors Mark Michaels and Patricia Johnson is a modern, comprehensive and accessible book that celebrates the sacredness of the body and sexual pleasure. Michaels and Johnson challenge prevailing stereotypes and reclaim the natural activities of our daily life, including sexual activity, as intrinsically spiritual. “We are very excited for Mark and Patricia,” said Carl Llewellyn Weschcke, Chairman of Llewellyn Worldwide. “Llewellyn titles often explore those topics that are revolutionary and noteworthy, and The Essence of Tantric Sexuality is no exception.” “We are thrilled to be honored with this award,“ said Michaels. “ Patricia and I work to share the confidence, joy, and power that practicing Tantra can bring, and being recognized for our efforts is truly gratifying.” The authors have been teaching Tantra and Kriya yoga together for the past eight years and are senior students of Dr. Jonn Mumford (Swami Anandakapila Saraswati). They have been named lineage holders of the OM Kara Kriya® system for the Americas and Europe. The devoted couple has also authored Tantra for Erotic Empowerment, available April 2008.
