Sacred Sex
Sacred Sex belongs to the following groups:
All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical and The Sensual WordThis piece has been written for a new group called the sensual word. It has also been further inspired by some ideas that I have been sharing with other bubble members. I believe sexual union to be perhaps the most powerful experience any human can engage in.
However I also believe that we humans often tarnish our most powerful relationship gifts. I believe that we become overwhelmed when experiences are too powerful and we either try to dominate or hide from the external that we feel is providing the power.
Personally I believe each person has the power within themselves. That if we feel deep power we actually have it within us. I further believe that the essence of each human is sacred and pure. However many/most of us seem to fear life when it becomes too deep. Rather than delving deep inside for support and wisdom we become stubborn and fearful in our protective instincts.
I am a very sensitive person and feel life so deeply. For me physical union is one of the most sacred activities in my life. I do at times get scared of the power and perhaps the fear of loss. However whenever I feel fear I also have faith that an exploration of that fear will bring strength, truth and joy.
I have explored the sexual side of my life with as much passion as any other aspect of my existence. I have enjoyed some of the most amazing encounters with women where in the moments of the intimacy I have felt in perfect bliss. This bliss has come when we are both meditated in the moment. For me in these instances I feel so incredibly lucky to be alive.
Further these experiences have come in so many different places with so many different people. I do in my heart believe in soul mates and monogamy but believe that each human is best served to come to this place in freedom. So many of us approach relationships as a support base rather than a free union between two secure souls looking to enhance their perfection.
Another interesting aspect of my deepest intimate connections has been the feeling of God’s presence. I have been raised a Roman Catholic and have been conditioned to judge sex heavily. However in all of my pure sexual moments I have felt God present as a beautifully sacred and loving third member. I believe God is fully present whenever humans come together in open, honest and passionate relationship. It is only our judgmental minds that restrict his/her being able to join in our experiences.

I agree with you.

I agree with the basic premise in this writing…. there is nothing more god like than a total opening up of two souls to one another…... trust…lust…communication… dedication … immediate devotion and worship of one another….... i feel in my heart that we are evolving away from monogamous relationships however….....love and monogamy are not the same face… they can walk hand in hand…. but if the truth faith of self and love is there… then their paths can diverge and converge as thier journey through this time and perhaps the next continues.

Hi Butch,
I must admit I am not as sure as I used to be about monogomy. Still do believe in twin souls and think they perhaps are for eternity but wonder how monogomy is going to be viewed in a few years. Like what you suggest about love and monogomy too. I really do believe that being monogomous or not does not change love.
Deb Gillett
Butchart, I agree that love and monogamy are not the same face, however if long term love is to flourish it must be a primary focus in the lives of the lovers. If new and (temporarily) more exciting partners are involved, then some focus must neccessarily shift away from falling in love again and again and again with ones partner. It is in partnerships where two are supportively striving towards the same places that each evolves to embrace their own greatest possibilities.
Tony Ryan replied
Also see where you are coming from Deb. Monogomy and love has been so conditioned into us starting with the bible. However this does not necessarily mean it is also not of the heart’s destiny aswell. One thing my heart feels though is that relationships should be free of control and possession. What this means to monogomy once again I am not so sure.
Deb Gillett
Hey Tony, I like the adage that “each should put the needs of the other foremost”. Also, that marriage is all about each giving the other a soft place to fall. It’s hard for me to see how an open relationship could fulfil these tenets. One thing I know for sure- I’ve been married to my man for 23 years now, and although I have loved him from the beginning, that love has since grown massively in ways I could not have even imagined way back when. I agree that control and possession are not part of the mix!!! If your lover is putting your needs first, then you have no need of the illusion of control. Control is within, not imposed from the other partner. So I guess it follows that non-monogamy could suit some couples, and the only real truth is whatever works for the 2 people involved- no rule is universal.

Tony… i think the concept of monogamy is another one of those moral compassess that was introduced to us years ago by men attempting to make their values and/or religious beliefs a universal law. Many of our current societal structures are crumbling…due to thier antiquity and also i feel do to a reawkening of indepenent souls and thinkers… people that don’t just accept
laws and social mores on tradition alone but are brave enough and confident enough in their own selves to challange what has for too long just been accepted as general law or fact. b

Hi Butch,
I do agree with what you say about there being an ever growing precence of free feelers/thinkers. Society has been so constricted and in my opinion we really need to free ourselves up. Re the monogomy I am still not sure. In my heart I have always felt that I have had a perfect romantic partner.
I really think this is intuition rather than society conditioning.However the deeper I go into my heart and free thinking the more open minded I am as to what this sort of relationship will evolve to be like.
Best Wishes Tony.
butchart
hey Tony…. my hope for you is that you find your perfect romantic partner soon… and that she is everything you have ever dremaed she would be…..... togehter may you walk in the light….......b
Tony Ryan replied
Thanks Butch. I think I found her about 8 years ago. I do not think either of us were secure in ourselves and perhaps are still not. However she has inspired me to search myself more deeply than I ever had before. The more secure I become the less needy I am for her or in fact any partner. This does not mean I love her any less just that as I find love for myself my need for externals is lessening. Once I am free from need I beleive I will be most loving to another.
butchart
Interesting Tony… my immediate response is that you’ve just made an argument for a non monogamous world… but it’s 4:30 a.m. ...my cup is still full of coffee…. once i’ve finished it my response might change…...:).................b
Tony Ryan replied
Hi Butch,
I think the thing we me is that I don’t believe my mind knows anything for certain. I do believe my heart does though. The journey is to connect the 2 so that they can become more in unison. I think when enough hearts and minds are connected that much confusion and violence will cease in the world. Once I or anyone is secure in themselves and not needy I believe we will make our choices in life freely. With regards to monogomy I will not be sure of how this will materialise until I am more heart connected with my mind. Either way once I am at peace I am sure I will be happy with my intimate life whether it is monogomous or not.
Best Wishes Tony.

Hi Suzanne,
Please forgive my tardiness in replying before and writing Susan. Have been a bit rushed the last couple of days and need to slow down a little.

I always like to have a look at the work of artists who take the time to comment on my work and i thank you for that. this is a fascinating trail of thoughts and I am not sure where this fits, but if I get to grow old, I want to do it with someone I love and who loves me.
Tony Ryan replied
Thanks for dropping by on this post Christopher. My personal dream in life is to find a partner that I passionately love and for whom I will share passion with eternally.
