In Pranayama we are using subtle practices like Mulabandha and Siddhasana, why don't we ever use more direct genital stimulation?

Because the idea is to move prana up the spine. Genital stimulation will tend to anchor the life force in the sexual organs so it won't move elsewhere. It's possible for some people to use genital stimulation and then mentally make it not sexual, but in my opinion you are just asking to get side-tracked.

Hi Gray,

There's an advanced siddhasana in the Tantra lessons, which stimulates the genitals more directly:

I used it for a short period of time. It's effective, but I prefer the Main Lesson version. It can also be distracting, as Etherfish alluded to.

Good luck!
