How can I make sex Loving? … (06/06/10)

The question has been posed:  if it is at all possible, how can we bring unconditional Love into our sex-lives.

Well, sex & celibacy & Love unconditional are a tricky mix, to be sure … If you are engaging in desire-based sex, you cannot be experiencing the act of caring Love.  And sex feels so good on the superficial “pleasure” level, that it is very difficult to Love another person while “making love” to them.  While superficial acts of sexual intercourse do allow for temporary experiences of intense physical and emotional pleasure, they inevitably also lead to the creation of deep-seated psycho-spiritual wounds that all participants in those acts a sense of suffering that is both acute and long-lasting.

Of course, it is possible to experience Love while engaging in such relationships — when both individuals involved consciously set out to make Love with each other & for each other before actually doing so.

As Naisah points out,”Life is Love. One single person contains the whole Universe and mirrors our Self back to us. We know Love through loving the other and we ourselves are enlightened by the light of the inner eye of the person that loves us … Seeking pleasure or to please creates division, tension, emptiness and insecurity … [And yet] all is possible if both are conscious.”

So remember, Friends, it is not what you do or don’t do that matters, but rather why you are choosing to act and how you go about acting.  Any deed — including sexual intercourse — can bring Peace when engaged by both parties consciously, caringly, and solely for the benefit of the other.
