AOM Meditations: 102218

“There is a supernal intelligence behind sexual arousal, the true purpose of which is to create for us ecstatic experiences of our own divinity.”  

~John Maxwell Taylor

~*~

“I believe when we’re able to fully own and express ourselves, we are able to tap into a creative power deeply rooted from our sexual energy – which is our creative energy. We’re so sexually loose, and also sexually strained. We don’t understand the creative power we have because we’re so busy using it in all the wrong ways – or worse, not using it at all.” 

~Lauryn Doll

“The completion of the soul's journey is proportionate to our ability to integrate spirituality (the heart) and sexuality (the body).” 

~Michael Mirdad

(Sacred Sexuality: A Manual for Living Bliss)

"Masturbation is a meditation on self-love. So many of us are afflicted with self-loathing, bad body images, shame about our body functions, and confusion about sex and pleasure, I recommend an intense love affair with yourself."

~Betty Dodson

Namaste Sweetie! 101818

Namaste Sweetie,

Happy Thor's Day!!!

Today's posts were inspired by 

The Bacchanalia

and the writings of

Walt Whitman

All posts relate to those two

The Bacchanalia: a rebirth/renewal festival honoring the Roman god Bacchus (Greek: Dionysus), god of wine, freedom, intoxication and ecstasy. They are thought to have celebrated wine, song, dance, and fertility through uninhibited sexual revelry. (You know - Sex, Drugs, and Rock n Roll)

I've brought the song, dance, and revelry

You'll need to supply your own wine!

:  )

Sexual Energy 
is a most powerful force within us

So powerful - that Governments and Religions

Have tried throughout the centuries to suppress it

But suppressing an energy is unwise and dangerous

Walt Whitman and I both (seemingly anyway)

Acknowledge the power of sexual energy
That vibrates within us all

It is, in fact, the 

CREATIVE FORCE OF THE UNIVERSE!
(And you ain't stopping that!)

           

If Sexual Energy is

Channeled by wisdom and understanding

And we learn to keep it in balance

It can be far more than just for sex

It is this energy that brings us 

Creativity - Passion - Zest - Spirit

In all parts of our lives

It is an integral part of our Spirituality

Spirituality and Sexuality 

are two balanced parts of the whole

And so today I want to 

Celebrate Our Sexual Energy
In this AOM MD Bacchanal

and

I encourage you (and myself) to learn more about it

And how to bring that powerful energy

Into helping us become 

More Creative, More Energetic, More Passionate

(Vocab: libidinous = feeling or relating to strong sexual desires)

As Whitman so passionately yawped,

"Give me now libidinous joys only! 

Give me the drench of my passions!

. . .

I am for those who believe in loose delights,

I share the midnight orgies of young men,

I dance with the dancers and drink with the drinkers."

~Walt Whitman

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Party On, Dude!

His Lust for Life Dripping from his Lips and Pen!

Yes!

What a Force!

I hope you will enjoy your visit

I wish you a Lust for Life Day!

(no. not the van Gogh movie - keep your ears attached : )

Let us continue to promote

Peace and Love

and continue to build

The more Beautiful World

Our Hearts know is Possible

Peace and Love,

AOM

I invite you to join me now in this short Metta Prayer

Radiating the energy of peace and love out to all living beings

Take a few deep breaths to clear your mind

And focus on the here and now

This present moment

Now

Breathe in

Filling your being with peace and love

As you begin each line, breathe out slowly

Breathing these thoughts into the world

Reading, thinking, and feeling the words with peace and love

Sending them from your heart

Giving the energy to yourself and to all living beings

Breathe in and repeat the process for each line

AOM Meditations: 101818

“Originally and naturally, sexual pleasure was the good, the beautiful, the happy, that which united man with nature in general. When sexual feelings and religious feelings became separated from one another, that which is sexual was forced to become the bad, the internal, the diabolical.” 

~Wilhelm Reich

~*~

“By diverting the Dionysian impulse into special rites on special days, the orgy kept it under control, preventing it from surfacing in more insidious and perfidious ways. More than that, it transformed it into an invigorating and liberating—and, in that much, profoundly religious—celebration of life and the life force. It permitted people to escape from their artificial and restricted social roles to regress into a more authentic state of nature, which modern psychologists have associated with the Freudian id or unconscious. It appealed most to marginal groups, since it set aside the usual hierarchies of man over woman, master over slave, patrician over commoner, rich over poor, and citizen over foreigner. In short, it gave people a much-needed break—like modern holidays, but cheaper and more effective.” 

~Neel Burton

“Used as rocket fuel, sex energy can lift our consciousness to the stars to experience a state of being where love exists in and for itself and has no opposite. On a soul level, this is our natural state.” 

~John Maxwell Taylor

"I am for those who believe in loose delights,

I share the midnight orgies of young men,

I dance with the dancers and drink with the drinkers."

Whitman's "Native Moments" Inspired Photo Set

 excerpt from

Native Moments by Walt Whitman

25. from Leaves of Grass (1900)

"NATIVE moments! when you come upon me

—Ah you are here now! 

Give me now libidinous joys only! 

Give me the drench of my passions! 

Give me life coarse and rank! 

To-day, I go consort with nature’s darlings

—to-night too; 

I am for those who believe in loose delights

—I share the midnight orgies of young men;

I dance with the dancers, 

and drink with the drinkers; 

The echoes ring with our indecent calls;..."
