Sex is a Space, not a Sin

S.x is not a sin. It is a Sacred Space in which lovers connect to the Beloved.

As the Sufi mystics knew, the Beloved is the Divine and is not outside of us but within. During s.x we can also connect to the Beloved within our lovers.

S.x is beautiful and pleasurable and vastly opening for the heart and the mind and the sacral and is not only or always focused on the gen.tals.

S.x is expansive. A Sacred Space you move into and not something you do. Not an act.

This space is one in which life can be created and that spark, that Divine, beautiful, holy spark is present no matter what, when we enter that Space.

No matter the gender, or the genitalia involved...or not involved...S.x is a Sacred Space where the spark of life, which is and always will be the spark of Eros, is activated.

This spark, eros, the godlight, is available to us in the Sacred Space we create and it is there for the creation of life *within each of us*. We receive this when we do not spend it creating another human being.

And most of us, most of the time, are not creating another being when we make love, we create the spark of life force within and for ourselves and with our partners.

This is what 'The Church' has written off as sin. Has given one angry, rampaging, murdering, holy-on-high being the credit for.

How does it make sense that a Divine Being could create us with this gift of Sacred Ple@sure and then send word that if we experience that, we are bad and wrong?

How does it make sense that we have these beautiful bodies, instruments of ple@sure, when we aren't to use them to enter into ple@sure?

It's ludicrous!

We are here to gift ourselves and our Beloveds--even if we don't know our partners well, when we enter into the Space of Union with them, they are the representations of the Divine Beloved and hold that energy for us, as we hold it for them--the gift of life! Of Shakti! Of Chi or Ki!

Of COURSE 'The Church' wanted to take that awareness away from us. How could be controlled if we weren't shamed away from the very thing that nourishes us body and soul?

It's heartbreaking and now it's time for heart healing. Time for us to enter into the gnowing that we are here for this. That we are here for the truth and the beauty and the ple@sure that our bodies were created for!

This ple@sure, this Sacred Space, this holy union with the Beloved is the apple that Eve took a bite of. This is the story we've been told, our most basic, moralistic, Western cultural story for the evil that is woman and the victim that is man.

There is SO MUCH of our programming based in this lie.

Dammit!

Kiss the serpent. Bite the juicy, flushed apple. Come into the gnowing of what you are here for. In this body. At this time. With these passions and cravings and desires. THEY ARE HOLY AND GOOD AND RIGHT.

You were made for love. The act of love. The space of love. The beauty of love.

No more shame. No more pain. No more hate. No more denying.

It is time. It is time. It is time.
