Sexual energy is the primal and creative energy of the Universe.  Indeed, all things that are alive essentially derive from sexual energy.

Pure sexual energy is as unstable as dynamite and just as explosive.  It can transport us to sublime states of bliss and delight, or cast us into the darkest pits of anguish, terror and depravity.  

The volatile and wild nature of sexual energy has convinced some religious traditions to view it as an impediment to spiritual development, characterizing sex as demonic and the act of masturbation as sinful.  

These beliefs still continue to perpetuate in the popular imagination, preventing the development of a sexual spirituality arrived at through the act of masturbation.

Sexual energy is natural, sacred and chaste.  It is the suppression and demonization of sexual energy that is unnatural, ugly and unchaste.

The notion that sexuality and spirituality are antithetical is misguided because sexual energy forms one of the cornerstones of human happiness.

If we ever hope to secure long-lasting happiness in a loving relationship, or indeed true contentment within ourselves, we must heal our socially conditioned distortions about sexuality and the act of masturbation.  

We must erase the invisible line we draw with our minds around our beltlines, above which lies the greater part of human nature and below which lies the lesser.  

In essence, we must spiritualize our sexuality and reclaim our masturbation as a sacred act.

During masturbation, there is a union between flesh and spirit.  The error of most western religion has been to deny this union and view the physical act as base and unspiritual.  

In truth all experience is physical because we are physical, sensual beings.  The act of masturbation is spiritual BECAUSE it is physical.   Spirituality must be sensual because it is only through our senses that we can experience the world.

It has been the view of many religions that we must resist the supposed sinful urge to masturbate.   Resistance is born of fear.  All resistance is mental and implies a judgment against what is being felt – an opposition to the sensual.

Thus masturbation becomes a subjective problem when it gets imbued with emotions such as shame, guilt and anger. This blocks the route to spiritual enlightenment through masturbation.

All problems related to sexuality; deviancy, sexual violence and abuse, can be traced to resistance, suppression and repression - not to the sexual urges themselves.

We must allow ourselves to discover our sexuality without external inhibition, through the act of masturbation.  When we discover our sexual spirituality through masturbation we will have no need to go to deviant extremes.

Extremism, in any form is a reaction to repression, inhibition and suppression.   Aggression and violence are the shadows of fear and disempowerment.

In truth, masturbation is the road to an experience of true empowerment and freedom because it is an area of our experience in which we can become completely uninhibited and free.  

Through masturbation we can discover our essential selves – our deep spiritual nature experienced through sensuality.

Masturbation is a means of escaping our little self or ego (the ego being a construct of and for the external world of sensual repression).

Masturbation is many peoples’ only experience of meditation and is a means of overcoming the shadow of fear and the suffocation of repression.

Masturbation is an act of intimate discovery of the Self.  It is the union of flesh and spirit; body and soul.  Sexual energy is sacred energy.  When we have restored masturbation to the realm of the sacred, our world will be chaste and divine, holy and healed.
