Sexuality is just part of K but it can be distorted into sexual
indulgence and not the Tantra. The cleansing prana that is effecting
you right now can be channeled if you meditate daily, any religion
will do for using rosary names, if you like that kind of thing.
Using the K as just sex only, does not result in 'realisation', or
destruction of the ego thought. Preoccupation with cleaning process
and not the goal, can prolong the process. >>
Dear List,
I was annoyed by this also. People tells us we are supposed to "get beyond"
both bliss and sex, as if there is something wrong with either! I'm
beginning to think that New Age Fundamentalists are just as bad as Christian
Fundamentalists, and it's all just new age PC propaganda. I'm wondering where
the "get past the bliss" idea came from and when. Does anyone know? St.
Teresa certainly wasn't told to "get over it!"
Throughout history I believe achieving "Bliss" was actually the "goal."
There's a great passage in Sri Ramana Maharshi's *Talks*:
(p. 102)
Question: "...How to get Bliss? "
Maharshi: "Bliss is not something to be got. On the other hand you are
always Bliss. This desire is born of the sense of incompleteness...What has
interposed between that Bliss and this non bliss? It is the ego. Seek its
source and find you are Bliss.
"There is nothing new to get. ... Trace the source of the ego. Then the
ego is lost and Bliss remains over. It is eternal. You are That, here and
now..."
Bliss, to me, is not a preference, it is a state of being. And I wonder,
also, if it matters how this bliss is triggered--whether from the lower
"sexual" chakras or the heart or head chakras. I feel they are all
"God/dess" inspired. I know I experience the bliss through the lower
chakras, the heart chakra and the upper chakras. (Not so much in the stomach
or throat chakras.)
In any case, we are all exactly where we are supposed to be, in my opinion!
Love, Hillary
