Sexual intercourse is one of the themes we are most hypocritical about.
A lot of confused conceptions have gained currency.
It is incredibly powerful. It causes a lot of problems. It has its benefits. It is a delicate territory.
We cannot deny the fact that we are here because two people did it. But, it’s often done more for pleasure, than for procreation, right?
It is delicate territory, but let’s reflect on it.
Ready?
Sexual intercourse is only pure when it’s a product of GENUINE LOVE, HARMONY, AND, MODERATION. And, when it blossoms naturally. When it is not a product of calculation.When it is a condensation of deep spiritual affinity. When both partners are suffused with the “sacred desire to give.”
Do we have to wait before marriage? Is sex pure, once it is actualized within the framework of a marriage?
No!
It can be a sin, even in marriage.
In some, (or, most) marriages, the men have a sense of entitlement in regard to intercourse, and, the women oft employ it as a weapon. One party demands it, the other uses it as a powerful means of controlling and holding unto the man.
Sexual intercourse, if one pays attention, is not peculiar to the human species. It is a natural law. Virtually, all mobile living creatures engage in it. But, they are sparing and natural with it.
We, on the other hand, have turned something natural into a plague.
If there’s no harmony and true love between both parties, it is a sin. Those who are still a bit alert oft sense the emptiness of such physical exchanges, even when they are deeply gripping physically. Without harmony and love, without a genuine desire to share, it feels bland and empty psychically.
One, or both parties are merely using the other. One, for pleasure, the other, for cash. Both can also use each other for pleasure.
Prostitution occurs in marriages, too.
Spiritually enlightened people do not make demands. They do not use or take advantage of others. And, they know the danger in extremes, in exaggeration, so, they are moderate.
Of course, some people may use this conception as a license for promiscuity. They may be deluding themselves about loving the other, so, they can get down to the sex. Well. The truth is, we always know when we are being deceptive.
Where there’s harmony, physical intimacy is an expression of love. One is sharing. One is giving. One is receiving. One is consciously offering the beloved one of the ingredients needed by their bodies. It’s not just about pleasure, intangible forces (vibrations) are exchanged. A mature body needs these vibrations.
These vibrations, when they are exchanged in purity (when they are exchanged in purity), make both parties more powerful, relaxed, intimate, and, even more attractive.
In some cases, it may even facilitate the flowering of some hidden or suppressed abilities.
The vibrations may be harmful or helpful, depending on the nature of the person the exchange is being done with!
It’s not wrong to be hesitant about intercourse.
It’s a serious exchange, and, one cannot be too careful.
