Sexuality And Energy Work? MBA

[Tom]

I'll add that with reiki attunements you can open the microcosmic orbit much more quickly, as reiki uses the same two channels. The governor meridian and conception vessel are two of the eight extraordinary meridians, which are in addition to the main 12 pairs named for the yin and yang organs. The microcosmic orbit connects these two meridians at the perineum and the mouth, which is why the microcosmic orbit is done while holding the lock mulabandha (lightly) and touching the tip of the tongue to the roof of the mouth. Diane Stein (or however her name is spelled) includes the microcosmic orbit meditation in her book "Essential Reiki" and suggests connecting the orbit during the process of giving a reiki attunement. I do not recall if she suggests doing kegel exercises. They have been develped for men as well as for women, as everyone has perineum muscles, and developing them is important if you are serious about channeling sexual energy into the orbit or just up the spine into the upper chakras.

Also, Mantak Chia wrote that even in men, all sexual energy starts out in a "cold" or yin form. It is only when sexual thoughts and emotions stir it up that it turns "hot" or yang, which it does in women as well as men. He suggests that when you first start working with sexual energy it is far easier to guide the energy in its yin form rather than the much wilder yang form.

The sexual energy is indeed very strong. I could induce a level of feeling of my body in energy work sessions I have obtained only now through non-sexual energy work, extremely quickly. It seemed to clear up stuff in no time.

However, in my experience none of that was permanent. The feeling only was available when activating the energy. It did not last. I think the clearing of blockages did not last as well. Perhaps if I grounded better this would have worked better. I think the energy released from the blockages plays into this as well as the unruly nature of sexual energy.

I don't know how to make it work without it becoming a necessity to always return to it. I also don't know how to fit it in with other practices. If you can accomplish these things for yourself, and I wish you good luck with that, it might be very useful to you.

It fits in with what Robert Bruce said about pushing the channels to widen more quickly than they are ready to. Anything which forces development of the energy body to move too quickly will result in the energy channels becoming more constricted than they had been before such attempts. I'm not saying that using sexual energy has to be that way; it is just not easy to control because usually its pathway is already well established and working with it requires forcing it to create and follow a new path. It will seem distinctly unnatural and will meet with a lot of resistance. Developing the microcosmic orbit and actually avoiding sexual thoughts and experiences would help to take sexual energy in its yin form up to feed the brain and the energy centers there without getting caught up in its yang expressions in the lower chakras and losing the energy. In other words, it really isn't as much fun as it sounds like and the more popular practices do tend to cause more harm in the long term than good.

[Korpo]

Tom, I agree.

I also think excessive fantasizing (and IIRC Chia warns of this and this is what turns it Yang) is the problem, or at least a big part of it.

Yes I agree completely with the issues with fantasizing, especially solo. (Why would you be doing it with another person anyways?)

I have found as well as witnessed with other people, the thought forms that hang around after having been used for their sexual purpose. The form will actually have a certain amount of will power and if continualy fed it can turn into a vampire craving sexual energy from you. I have found they can grow in much more power if ejaculation occurs as this releases a lot more energy outside of yourself. This can even attract inccubi or succubi...

Three_Nails: Keep experimenting and it helps to read literature on the subject of energy work and sexuality.

You can do the full body circuit with sexual energy which is essentiall what the MCO is except instead of completing the cicuit when coming dow the front you store the energy in your navel chakra or lower energy storage centre or dantian... whatever term suits your fancy! (there are differences between all of these)
