The integration of sex and spirit is a path emerging for many in our time. It's a path of deepening connection, removing obstacles to intimacy, and expanding our life force.

How do we access and guide this energy? With the heart. The energy of the heart contains and directs sexual energy so that it is a healing and transformative force. And what guides our heart? The overall spiritual purpose of our lives. When all three are combined (sex, heart, and spirit), we can live a deeply satisfying life of service to our ultimate vision.

 

"We are making love all the time by the way we speak to each other, about even the most mundane matters. What takes place in our love-making carries over into a sense of respect for each other that we can feel whether we are cooking a meal or washing the dishes. Each day our love gets deeper because our expression of it is continuous. We don't get into fights or senseless arguments because we are just too filled with the richness of our love. We are too busy being happy to interfere with the gift of each other."

There's been a war going on within us between our sexual selves, our physical bodies, and our spirituality. And so to recognize that we are both spiritual beings and sexual beings and to embrace both of these allows us to redirect the energy that's been going into that conflict, that internal struggle, and instead expand outward and embrace all of creation as a whole, as one.
