GeneralTransforming Sex into Love

  • "Human beings can never be separated from sex. Sex is the very source of one’s life; one is born out of it. Existence has accepted the energy of sex as the starting point of creation, and your holy men call it sinful… something that existence itself does not consider a sin! And if you think of God as the creator, and if God considers sex to be a sin, then there is no greater sinner than God in this world, no greater sinner than God in this universe." ~ Osho

  • I read about how sexual energy is VERY tied in with creativity. I've also heard that creativity is GREATLY tied in to the shadow, meaning that perhaps embracing our shadow is helping us to unlock our creativity, brilliance etc

    Debbie Ford's book, The Dark Side of The Light Chasers illuminated me to that concept.

    Have you engaged in any specific practices cycling energy or anything similar?

  • Hey Aaron, I'm not familiar with the term 'cycling energy'. Maybe an example would help?

  • Well you know the basic idea behind tantra where you are basically directing your sexual energy back up your spine instead of outward in the "release".

    Learning how to control that energy rather than it just going out of you, you know?

  • I think this comes naturally when one is not focused on the expectation of pleasure from sex. Then awareness is focused on the other and the connection between. The selves fall away and two are being instead of doing. Breathing becomes natural, there is no rush, no hurry to the end. This is what occurs when thoughts are stopped, when the world ceases to be.

  • INTERESTING...

  • I don't if people know this...BUT sex and durgs are a very small of Tantra. It mainly deals with the science of energy !! and that energy ofcourse obeys the laws of physics !!

  • Sure, Tantra actually translates roughly to Scripture.
