Oscar R. Gómez (Osy) (born March 9, 1956, in Puerto Belgrano, province of Buenos Aires) is an Argentine writer, psychoanalyst and academic researcher who became renown as an integrator of Tibetan Tantric Buddhism with Western formal sciences and who constituted the first religious organization in Argentina engaged in the Tantric Worship practice in children and adults.
At 12 he began to study and experiment in Eastern philosophies. He was first initiated in the Rosicrucian Order, then walked through the traditional paths of bhakti yoga and Jnana yoga, and in 1972, he received his initiation into the practice of tantra that lies within tantric buddhism
Along with his training in Eurasian philosophies and religions, he was being trained in in Western biology, philosophy, psychology, psychoanalysis, sociology, and psychobiology.
With this double training, he developed a method of transmission of the Tantric philosophy that adapts to Western life, free from oriental cultural forms and the superstitions of the people who practiced tantra centuries ago and yet retains its tradition and paradigmatic essence.
"This philosophy can be transferred faster because there are not many differences with the Western philosophy, which takes the vision of tantra based on the notion of subject developed by the 3rd Dalai Lama, Sonam Gyatso and Grand Kahn Jalaluddin Muhammad Akbar and introduced in Europe by the Jesuit Antonio de Montserrat". Osy (February, 1995).
Out of this paradigmatic look and (Tantric) source, Osy developed a psychotherapeutic technique of self-knowledge and self-improvement that he called Tecnología del deseo® —such as others that were developed within the Eranos Circle— and suits the modern life needs: it does not involve mysticism, magic or superstitions, it is based on western and formal knowledge, and it is approachable for all ages and genres, including children and the elder.
In 1992, after an interview with H.H. the fourteenth 14th Dalai Lama in Buenos Aires and together with other students and a coordinator appointed by him, he opened at his home in Berazategui (Buenos Aires) a space called La Casa del Tantra to foster integration in the western academic arena what he considers to be the source of existential phenomenology.
