| Tantra of Shambala (1) - What is sexual energy? |
|
|
From ancient times, scientists have tried to answer the question if the soul is eternal or not. Their blindness amazes wise people. In fact, God created the eternal soul. It is eternal by nature. Any plant or animal is part of this eternal soul. Living essence is not only one, but also many similar essences. Actually, any living essence represents a factory for creating inferior substances, such as food, water, air, and serves as imprint for superior substances: such as physical body, mind, emotion. But one of the most superior substances in the organism is the sexual energy, which is capable of generating a new living body. In a laboratory, no scientist is capable of producing the smallest living cell, whereas sex is capable of creating a very complicated mechanism as our body. This is the reason why, in antiquity, sex was considered sacred. People adored sex and fertility, seeing in sex the most superior creative power of life on Earth. But in addition to reproduction, the sexual energy has some even more amazing functions that influence the daily activity of a person: sexual energy helps to receive the subtlest and highest impressions. This is accentuated especially in the moment of sexual awakening, when a person begins to ponder for the first time upon the meaning of life and is interested in philosophy, religion.... She faces sick society, who wants to control life, and protests actively against everything dead and dogmatic that she sees. There is a creative desire, not standardized declaration. At this age, many youngsters begin to write poems, music, start to draw etc. But, very often, some years later, this state of youth finishes, as soon as sexual energy finds its realization in traditional manner - creation of family and giving birth to children. Nevertheless, the correct direction of this energy might take a person to miraculous results in developing her conscience, discovering secret forces and capacities, and all the way to her spiritual transformation. This was something that ancient wise people knew and they were actively applying it in spiritual and religious systems of development. Some were using asceticism; it means conservation and direction of sexual energy towards the discovery of capacities during cessation of physical sex and, what is even more important, cessation of sexual imagination. Others were using the path of Tantra, which shows the use of wisely natural sexual interaction and seeks high goals, same as the asceticism. Nevertheless, unlike the asceticism, Tantra demands wider knowledge, skill and presence of special conditions in society, in addition to a teacher of Tantra, without whom the development in this path is, simply, not possible. When the adolescent integrates his sexual center, begins a time of flowering, just as it happens with plants. Flowers would represent genital organs and their beauty and aroma would represent the manifestation of their superior energy, which always amazes. This also happens with a person, who has her own charm. Nevertheless, unlike plants - that show themselves such as they are -, people are determined by the influence of a sick society, where sex and everything connected to it are considered “dirty”, dishonorable, sinful and immoral. Enormous quantity of fears and prohibitions lead to sexual illiteracy, and adolescents can not fully develop their sexuality and are not capable of expressing it correctly. This leads to development of mental deviations and such distortions as zoophilia, necrophilia and homosexuality, total crush of sex of a misogynous husband or persons that become asexual. All this provokes, in turn, multiple physical illnesses of the genital-urinal system, as well as other parts of the body. Without overcoming complexes and prejudices created by sick society, it is impossible for a youngster to discover and flower his human essence, to achieve happiness and discover his talents and capacities. When such a person is enslaved, full of fears due to complexes and has complete illiteracy regarding sex, she begins to look for a couple; most of the times, she finds someone completely inconvenient for her way of being, someone with whom she is not capable of establishing a normal and harmonious relations. This leads to a heavy, complex and unhappy marriage. Something that can be avoided, if a person knows how to select a couple. The first thing to remember when we are about to choose a couple, is that people are not equal by the level of existence, and that normal interaction is not possible with a person with low level, with a small progress in self-development. At such level, a person has mental deviations, even pathological jealousy; these are sadists, psychopaths, alcoholics, drug addicts, those who suffer incurable illnesses that lead the organism to a deficient state, the unfortunate, the too old, the weak, the lazy one, the swindler, killer, and so on. The interaction with such people destroys the life of an individual and transforms it into a continuous suffering, closing the possibility to obtain happiness and development. Tantric relations are impossible with such persons. For tantric relations, the people in a couple must be strong and have a high value essence. (CONTINUES)
