What if the two were the same?
Have you ever noticed how sometimes making love (sex) with a particular person is so much better than sex with someone else or other people. I have. Always it's because of some connection to that person that goes beyond description, beyond interaction; something beyond "chemistry" which can make for one or two or several or many sexual encounters. It's a transcendental connection that could almost be described as mind-to-mind. (though I would prefer "min-in-mind). For me it has almost always happened when I sensed the other person before actually meeting them, usually only moments before meeting. |
The feeling of oneness or sameness
A feeling that goes beyond that ability to finish each other's sentences or knowing what each other wants. That feeling during physical intimacy that is not about beauty, or being sexually adept, but about who you are with and just the sheer bliss of being as close as is physically possible with another human being. It is a physical thrill derived from sharing a physical manifestation of a closeness shared in some non-physical manner, where the physical joining seems to heightened that feeling of closeness that is non-physical.
Love?
Perhaps this is the best definition of love, a spiritual, emotional joining beyond the elements of simple attraction that may manifest in some reality not defined in material concept; something/place that Carl Young referred to as the "collective conscious". Ingo Swann (noted psychic trusted enough to work with the CIA) described this connective energy that linked physical sharing with a sharing of consciousness as Bio-Psychic. Freud refered to it as libido while the ancient Hindus described it as kundalini or Tantric energy: "In the Tantric tradition, intercourse and orgasm combine to produce spiritual awareness at its peak."
Balance.
Social construct prohibits us from engaging in physical intimacy with just anyone (until social construct changes) and certainly sexual intercourse has ramifications that could be problematic for our existence our highly materialistic world. However, if each of where to acknowledge that sexual energy were a manifestation of our connection to others in the collective consciousness, we may be able to draw closer to each other if we manage this sexual energy with balance. Perhaps, we could consider physical intimacy without intercourse and ejaculation. The Tantric's would call this "intimacy without a goal" or without being hedonistic. My generation would call this form of intimacy "making out." Perhaps if we were to acknowledge this sexual energy even in times when social construct says we can't share intimacy might be an indication of some sort of psychic connection. When we repress sexual energy to the point of sublimation by chasing materialistic gain, are we also suppressing our psychic abilities to connect with others?
Maybe there's a good and spiritual reason, sexuality is so compelling and feels good....emotionally.
