AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

Can a sexual act be spiritual🌹? 

This is a slippery slope for which the safest answer is no because sexuality generally turns the consciousness downwards and outwards whereas spirituality is about turning the same energy inwards and upwards. This of course is the general answer.

However in terms of possibility then it is possible to transmute sexuality into a means for the transmission of spiritual energy as we read in some stories where Yogis did niyoga to facilitate conception as with Rishi Vyas and Parashar. 

There is a yet higher possibility of transformation of the sex centre and turn the meeting of a man and woman into a union of Purusha and Prakriti or even Ishwara and Shakti by the joining and union of two complimentary beings who are like twin flames from one Fire. But this requires a tremendous degree of self mastery, a complete conquest over desires and a total rejection of all the crude animal movements associated with sex.

But for obvious reasons, it is and has been often misused to justify all kinds of things in the name of spirituality. Hence it is best not to let the mind be occupied with it especially since it requires such a high degree of self mastery and, in fact, the abolition of desires.

Affectionately,

My niece who is 12 yrs old doesn’t like sharing😥. If she takes her favorite food to school and her friends ask her to share, she doesn’t give or gives a very small piece. If by chance she happens to share a chocolate with girls she doesn’t like, she wants to snatch it away. She is attached to Krishna, and only thing that pacifies her is when we tell her that Krishna likes if she shares what He has given her. She says “I know it’s bad, i know it’s a devil that says this, but I can’t overpower it. It tells me that those girls did bad and said bad things about you, instead of that you shared your things, now you go steal something from them. Or I keep thinking what will I get if I give them”..[conti]
