Sexual continence is the key to all spiritual development
As mentioned earlier, a Tantric will attempt to transmute and sublimate his/her sexual energies prevelant in Muladhara and Svadhistana Chakra to the more refined energies
in the higher chakras.
In this article we will mostly address the men as it is men who have the greatest difficulty in assimilating the lesson of sexual continence. For women it is a much more
natural process as women can to a higher extent control and channel their orgasms.
In the case of men it means they must learn to live a life without ejaculation and to turn their semen into energy through transmutation and thereafter to sublimate the
energies to more refined types of energies.
When we say this to the men who attend our weekend courses, some of them often get a little bit upset. For them the ejaculation is one of the best things they know of in
life and to give up the ejaculation is to give up something which gives them great pleasure and which at the same time relieves stress and tensions.
There are two things to say in regards to this:
1) Ejaculation and orgasm are not the same!
Most men do not know that the ejaculation and orgasm are different processes which can be separated. You can ejaculate without experiencing an orgasm, and you can have an
orgasm without ejaculating. To be able to attain an orgasm without ejaculation craves training and discipline from the man. By having an orgasm without ejaculation you will
get all the benefits of the orgasm AND you will at the same time retain your vital energies (and will not need to roll over onto your side after lovemaking to promptly fall
asleep letting your loved one feeling a little left out!).
2) Tantric lovemaking makes stress disappear
Through tantric lovemaking the energy is lead up to the higher chakras and the stress and tensions associated with the accumulation of the sexual energy on the lower
chakras will be transformed to more elevated energies. After half an hour of tantric lovemaking performed correctly the man will seize to have the desire to ejaculate. The
energy at that point will already have been chanelled to the higher chakras and transformed to love and a deep sense of presence and awareness. You must be aware of the
fact that you do need to do energetic work after lovemaking such as yoga or meditation or the energies will descend again into the two lowest chakras manifesting in the
physical body as sore testicles and a sluggish feeling in the body and mind.
Due to their nature, men instinctively often prefer to avoid the feminine (energy) and prefer to pull themselves back into a state of empty void where they no longer need
to relate to any energy. Men love the feeling of deep relaxation that follows the ejaculation. The energy and tension has been expelled and the man can descend into his
void. Unfortunately most men do not know the effects of sublimating their sexual energy because then they would definetly prefer to keep the semen inside instead of wasting
it!
If you make love for an hour or two and sublimate the sexual energy through yoga or other exercises, you can acheive states of enlightenment and deep revealing glimses into
the nature of the divine.
For a few lucky men it is easy to acheive sexual continence, while it can be quite a struggle for most men. In this struggle men will learn more about themselves and their
energetical system than through any other training he possibly can receive. He will learn about his breathing, about how his mental states affect his sexuality, about the
chakra system, about how to surf his energies and the orgasm etc. He will become gradually more efficient at sublimating his sexual energy to the more refined energies on
the higher chakras, he will know what food to eat and how it affects his kidneys which are vital to the sublimation process, he will be able to satisfy any woman he meets
and to make love for many hours on end. He will "tame the dragon" as it is portrayed in European mythology where the knight always slays the dragon to free the princess.
The list goes on indefinetely. I think you get the point! Understanding our sexual energy is the key to our development and taming the dragon will definetely make a hero
out of you!
