Wondering about natural avenues of practice. When talking to people who have more formal knowledge of tantra than I, I keep finding I've already explored many formalized practices. Practices that nobody has ever told me about. I don't think this is a question of aptitude.

Rather, it seems like certain core practices, if pursued long enough, naturally scaffold into further steps. Like there is an instinct, here, or a consistent set of outcomes from the core conditioning.

Does this tend to happen in other disciplines? I'm not sure I'm good enough at anything else to evaluate that.

I'm sure that it does. Look at the crossover in approaches in different fighting systems, for example. There are bound to be fundamentals that, once understood, naturally point in a particular direction.
