When you awaken, you awaken to a world where nothing much is the same as it was. Clearly, there is a channel within that is opened. Thought energy is more than just your own private thoughts. You come to realize that thoughts really DO have power. And here we are on the planet, chattering away inside of ourselves, and its possible to hear all of this. Your own thoughts aren't as private as you may have previously realized. It isn't that people are snooping on you, no, because once you awaken, there just isn't the desire to such things. It was like when I began seeing auras. For a while it was interesting, novel even, but then I realized I was SEEING people....their private things being expressed in their aura. So when that happens, you have a new responsibility and you take it seriously. But thought energy isn't just nothing. From thought new creations come. The quality of thought counts.
So thought is itself energy. We ourselves are made up of all kinds of sheaths or facets within us that all process energy in a different way. We have maybe five basic bodies that bend the energy in certain ways the way that a prism bends light and breaks it into different colors (if you are into dividing us into such neat categories)....physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, etc., and so each of these will experience the same energy differently. Each will be a facet or expression of what you are. At one place it will feel as exquisite sexual energy while in another place it will feel more sensual, less sexual. In another place, it will feel so powerful as though you can do anything. In another place within you, this energy might be like divine love, in another place it might illuminate and clarify your inner sight....there are so many ways that energy from the cosmos can be experienced!
One aspect of your energetic being is sexual energy. Now we have a lot of weirdness surrounding this part of ourselves. There is a huge amount of shame as a race on this count. This shame that has remained unresolved has made us prisoners to old hurts and old karmic threads that have kept us on the merry-go-round of karma for lifetimes. LIFETIMES. But sexual energy is one aspect of who you are, and it is easier to deal with the more you allow yourself to be healed. Once you are able to clear each vehicle (as the Hindus call it), as you clear each center that channels energy through you, you can begin to have a clearer and more peaceful existence. You can also use each center for life in a way that brings you fulfillment instead of snags or problems.
What makes Tantra so important isn't that its about sex, its that it deals with sexual energy as a way to reach union with the divine. See, the divine does not have the shame you have. The universe has no problem meeting you and merging with you in any way you are willing to merge with it. The vast consciousness that IT is simply has moved beyond shame a long time ago. As a result of this, it seems perfectly capable of experiencing bliss and wonder no matter how we approach it. the only thing missing is how WE react to the same thing. Learning how to be without shame is important. By this I do not mean to say that you are shameless and thus unstudied in your morality, no. What I mean is that you are more like a child. You return to a purer place within before all of the guilt and shame about your body, about who you are or how you are was put into place by you. When you do that, you experience whatever it is more directly, less encumbered. When you do this sexually, you are dealing with a very powerful form of energy. This energy can speed yourself along, but it is not for the feint of heart. Using all of you is a beautiful thing in spiritual work. It reaches into religion but without the dogma. Sexual energy, then, moves fast and is felt by others. You need to be careful about how you direct it and use it. As a result, your own mind and your own issues need to be healed and worked on so that the quality of your experience will continue to be more and more refined.
It is hard for some folks to know what remains. What remains in you is what gets in the way with a direct experience of yourself and the divine. What remains to be surrendered? What is not in your highest? It is hard to know what isn't in your highest always.....because sometimes your highest is a few steps ahead of where you are.....so this means that you have to be willing to accept what your higher self sends to you as signs, as directives, or as outcomes or events that can lead you to the next step in your path. In time, with enough attention, the answers will come. I know this may sound laissez- faire, but I promise you that this is an aspect of co-creation that will work if you allow it. the secret is that you can make ANY technique work IF you believe in it enough. If doing a series of incantations allows you to believe that something will come to pass, then by golly, it will! That is the nature of belief! Ask that you be shown. And be patient.
Keep at it.
Sometimes you need to be ready to see before you can see. Let the universe pave the way for you. You think you are this limited being in this small body when in truth you are one life looking out through this one body but you have many many many more bodies, lives, experiences beyond comprehension. With time being an illusion, ALL of you is available NOW. Your future selves, your God or Goddess self in its advanced state is available to you.....and its at your fingertips. Accelerate yourself....and you will see.
So tantra isn't really about sex, but it is about sexual energy. There is a very big difference, there. Some feel the need to respond in a more typical way with tantric energy and release the energy. However, it can also be used to elevate ones self. You can use it to do things, create things, or to live a life that is devoted to love in a more subtle way. There are countless ways to utilize the energy, and no one way better than another. But its not always about sexual union only. Feeling sexual energy is not the same as being engaged sexually, and this energy when felt powerfully enough actually has the power to transform you. This has been the aim of many followers, many monks, many priests and priestesses down through the ages. It isn't the only one, of course, but it is one very valid way toward self transformation.
I have found how love and sexual energy go hand in hand....for love is NOT sexual energy, but sexual energy is an expression of love, or CAN be if love is holding its hand. Do you see? Sexual energy is like a raw fire. Now we can use that fire to burn down the house and barn or we can control it and manage that fire within the bounds of discipline and love and devotion. By allowing yourself to be open to the All, you can experience something here on the planet with the divine that is simply not here with other humans yet. Being able to FEEL something HERE on the planet is huge. It is what I call Anchoring The Vibration. Being able to anchor a vibration here is HUGE. Really. So by doing this kind of work, you aren't JUST doing it for yourself, you are also laying down a path that makes it easier for others to reach it. You are setting up a frequency that will be easier for others to match or follow or find.
And I am just here reminding you that this is so.
So with tantra, you can find God-dess or the divine. It is right in front of you. Now breathe deep and just let it in. Let it be. realize and remember who you are. You are more than just your life. You re so much more.....now breathe it in and let the divine cradle and love you....
