♥Spiritual Sex Alone

smiley Hi!

This is my first time on here so be gentle, okay? You always want gentleness on your first time!...smiley.gif" alt="smiley"/>!

I am a single female and have never married. But there isn't anything wrong with me at least not now! I was on some very powerful medication that took the drive out of me for years. I have been off of that medicine for more than 2 years now. Strangely, when I was young I had to watch myself because I am highly sexual by nature and have very high morals.

♥Taoist methods of Dr. Stephen T. Chang?

Hello all,

I discovered this site not long ago and it resonates very much with my feeling of what the experience of sexuality should be. Thank you!

A question has been with me for some time: has anyone had any experience, or does anyone know anyone who has, with the Taoist methods explained in Dr. Stephen T. Chang's book "The Tao of Sexology"?

wisdom sex sharing

Hi, I have been studying wisdom sex practices for the past 8 years. I started studying with my teacher Marcus Daniels back in June of 1999 taking his cellular memory healing classes which are now called authentic feeling classes. I have some info on an old website and I am in the midst of beginning to create a new website on my own to share more info concerning what ails us due to our ignorance about sexuality.

limitations of Yin/Yang perspective . . .?

Please:

(1) I'd be very interested in exploring the spiritual nature of Masculinity and Femininity (and its practical relationship to the Divine) with anyone who finds (from personal experience) the "Yin/Yang" perspective about it to be significantly mis-conceived.

(2) That perspective, as popularized by writers such as David Deida (Hindu-based) and Mantak Chia (Daoist-based), is currently the basis of most "sacred sexuality"in the West.

(3) It's pretty much taken as gospel about Men and Women -- how often do you ever see anyone question it?

Aristophanes

Aristophanes presented a story about soulmates in The Symposium by Plato. It states that humans originally consisted of four arms, four legs, and a single head made of two faces, but Zeus feared their power and split them all in half, condemning them to spend their lives searching for the other half to complete them.

♥the Richardsons and Osho

Should we be concerned that the Richardsons (Diana and Michael) are disciples of the spiritual master Osho (Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh)? I have personally benefitted from following some of their teachings, but it troubles me that Osho seemed to have difficulty living in harmony with other members of society.

the diifference between tantra and karezza?

I was reading this article: http://www.newbrainnewworld.com/?Awakening_of_Kundalini:Tantric_Sex

It seemed very similar to karezza. My understanding from Marnia's book is that tantra was different from karezza, in that it was still focused on a type of orgasm rather than none at all. Then again I haven't read all the Marnia's book yet, but I've read some of a book on Karezza which describes it just like tantra is in the above link, and even suggests that karezza is a different type of orgasm.

Yoni

I want to thank Jrenee for introducing me to the term “yoni.” http://www.reuniting.info/node/4476 I had never seen the word before so I looked it up on Wikipedia. I love yoni. And I like the word yoni. Synonyms in our language seem to be too clinical, or vulgar, or childish or degrading to women. I think yoni is just right – I believe it conveys affection and respect and creativity. Yonis are good.

St. Paul

Hello Marnia and others,

Possible allusions to non-orgasmic sex in the writings of St. Paul have been noted here at Reuniting. This evening I found a Pauline text that supports this point of view, and that I have not noticed before:

That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification
and honour; Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know
not God.... 1 Thessalonians 4:4

Here is one scholarly exploration of the text:

The "Dark Gift": The Truth behind the Legends of the "Fallen Angels"

This website has really opened my eyes. Especially as regards the Annunaki ie "fallen angels" being multi-orgasmic who according to the bible came down to Earth and created offspring of "giants" with human females. Kind of frightening to me in fact..

http://www.multiorgasmic.com/rephaim.htm

The rest of the website speaks of documented male multiple orgasm whether ejaculatory or non.
