Tao of Funkahuatl = Tantrik Funk

The Tao, or, the way of Funkahuatl is the merging of spirit, sex, funk, and soul on the path to the Beloved – while living your life as a work of art. Tastes of Tantra, Taoism, Sufism, Pachukismo, the Sixth Dalai “Lover” Lama, and Rhythm & Blues, tantalize. You know Marvin Gaye advised and pleaded, “We gotta get down and share some sexual healing”. So, let’s dance and love our lives away to some soulful tantrik funk. Listen to my songs of  lust, love, and light. Let them take you away on a sensual flight beyond day, beyond night. To a  place where sex is sacred. To a place where love is God.
