Sacred Sexuality

.

Today the road has curved into some unusual and controversial subjects, as I have explored the inner workings of mind and spirit I have discovered and found various writings that supported my deepest and personal beliefs and spiritual feelings.

These particular subjects are not easily or readily accepted and embraced by most people so I often find resistance when trying to discuss them. For many years they were simply my own beliefs and philosophies. Recently I have found articles that are related and support what I have tried to explain for many years.

What follows is one of the articles that touches on the principle of physical intimacy as it relates to reaching higher levels of personal development and growth as well as providing better overall health.


In reading this article I found this quote which has helped me understand people's resistance to the idea-


"A person's approach to sexuality is a sign of his level of evolution. Unevolved persons practice ordinary sexual intercourse. Placing all emphasis upon the sexual organs, they neglect the body's other organs and systems. Whatever physical energy is accumulated is summarily discharged, and the subtle energies are similarly dissipated and disordered."

Into the Realm of Bliss and Wholeness with Sacred Sexuality

by Marnia Robinson and Gary Wilson
Co-authors of Peace Between the Sheets: Healing with Sexual Relationships

One of my favorite accounts of sacred sexuality is contained in a little-known text by Lao Tzu, an ancient Chinese Taoist. In the Hua Hu Ching, Lao Tzu warns that, "Although most people spend their entire lives following the biological impulse, it is only a tiny portion of our beings. If we remain obsessed with seeds and eggs, we are married to the fertile reproductive valley of the Mysterious Mother but not to her immeasurable heart and all-knowing mind."

He says that, "If you wish to unite with her heart and mind, you must integrate yin and yang within and refine their fire upward. Then you have the power to merge with the whole being of the Mysterious Mother."

He explains further that, "The first integration of yin and yang is the union of seed and egg within the womb. The second integration of yin and yang is the sexual union of the mature male and female. Both of these are concerned with flesh and blood, and all that is conceived in this realm must one day disintegrate and pass away."
