Hello everybody :-) Just thought as this poll on celibacy is about, I'd share
this ..
>From Gopi Krishna at:

~ re SEX & KUNDALINI (page 2) ~
"The whole of our body is filled with a very fine biochemical essence which
I call the biological prana. Prana has two aspects, the universal and the
individual. In the individual aspect it is composed of the subtlest elements. I
should say some radiation from the various elements on a subatomic level. This
prana is concentrated in the sexenergy. Normally the sex energy is used for
procreative purposes, but nature has designed it for evolutionary purposes also.
We are all familiar with the word sublimation, or refinement and
purification. Most people believe that artistic talent, and genius to a large
extent, depend on the sublimation of the sexenergy. Even psychologists like
Freud and Jung ascribe it to libido. Now libido is sexenergy, lifeenergy in
other words. So, according to the view of those who believe in
Kundalini-according to the views of ancient masters-the human reproductive system
functions in two ways, both as the evolutionary and the reproductive mechanism.
As the evolutionary mechanism, it sends a fine stream of a very potent
nerve-energy into the brain and another stream into the sexual region, the cause
of reproduction. By the arousal of Kundalini we mean the reversal of the
reproductive system and its functioning more as an evolutionary than as a
reproductive mechanism.
Is that the reason many religions advocated celibacy? "

article!~*~

Seems to me orgasm in K awakened folk can mean transcendence straight into the
absolute like a washing a cleansing, with bliss, and beyond. Gopi goes on to
explain how the energy is rerouted in K active people so as to serve an
evolutionary function during sex and orgasm. It goes up now, not just down and
out!
For my part I think sex can be had without even touching physical bodies. We have
subtle bodies which extend beyond our physical ones. Twice now I have completely
merged with others as energy and soul. Eyes are involved. It is infinitely more
intimate then sex with just body, which was what I was getting from my husband at
the time.
After merging souls & divinity how could I ever get satisfaction again from
someone just making love to my body if they missed entirely my soul. My husband
couldn't see me there .. so it was torture. Anyway we broke up.
As for the poll ~*~
So....my questions are...
1. How many of us feel that our K awakening had anything to do with
celibacy. (celibacy being defined as having no sexual partner for an
extended length of time)
No.
2. How many of us became intentionally celibate after K awakening.
No why?
3. For those who are sexually active, do you find that sexual activity
affects your K energy one way or another?
Well it brings immediate bliss and heaven to the heart chakra which stays for a
while after.
Any other thoughts on the subject?
'Since celibacy can lead to mystic experiences, the ancient religious
communities seemed to jump to the false (in my opinion) conclusion that
mystic experience is God's reward, and that God prefers celibacy. Not
exactly logical, but understandable.' ~
I tend to agree with Robert here. Orgasm is transcendental and a direct
connection with God. Wonder if the mystics ya know, masterbated? Hmm well ya know
maybe they were working at balancing their inner opposites which may be best done
without a partner for some .. for a time.
I knew a man whom celibacy led to neurotic tendencies in! He was a leader of a
meditation movement. Utter fruitcake! Yet a practicing psychiatrist. He raped his
patients emotionally and energetically. I know I was one of them! You can merge
without bodies even touching. This is called unity consciousness. At first I was
initiated by mmm.. holy spirit like this .. but relationships withheld (no sex
with the compatible energy guys) because I am to balance my opposites IN me,
without projection onto another.
You can imagine how hard this has been! I desire a partner but guides have told
me no not until I get it right otherwise I will draw to me one who will just
reflect my animus wounds. And I did in February. This guy was dark animus hidden
and like my dad's dark side. I called it quits fast .. but saw & aware my inner
child pattern - to draw partners to me that had aspects like my parents - to try
and fix what had gone wrong with them. It can't be done like that, and the
pattern must be broken. Inner child has this craving to redo parental patterns!
Sex really is about merging on ALL levels .. physical, mental, emotional and
spiritual - soul. If a part misses out, I think it is just frustrating on some
level. Maybe it's my desire to merge with all of me I feel. In the mirror of
relationship I can imagine it can be divine dynamite, when a twin soul or soul
mate fits!
Best Regards,
Col
