Mystical Sex is the Sex elevated from the mundane onto a spiritual plane. A seemingly incongruous combination but so only to our conditioned minds, which have been taught to regard sexual activity as something to be hidden, or frowned upon. Sexuality, actually is the most intense of sensuous experience, because all the five senses are simultaneously involved in a sexual act. It is therefore the most direct experience to realise the power of the five senses and to understand the meaning of desire. Yes, it also then gives you the feel of what it is like to practice withdrawal of senses. But first let's talk of mystical sex. Sexual preparation, sexual activity and finally, the last phase of compel, which is the cause of our being. For these brief moments, the medley of thoughts that normally run through our minds simply stops.

What one achieves through sexuality is a very short- lived experience of spirituality. There are two paths from here on- the first to extend the brief experience into a longer one through practice of pranayama that is by developing single pointedness that directs orgasmic energy towards your head, thereon to the solar plexus. And the second path is to transcend the Sexual experiencing and channel the sexual energy elsewhere to creative works, to healing others, to heal yourself, to meditate successfully and to expience this energy in all other areas without involving a sexual act. This takes us to celibacy. Celibacy is not the killing of sexual energ, it is the channeling of this energy to other areas of your life. It is the transcending of sexual bodily pleasure derived from our senses on to the experience of reality - beyond the senses. It is to be able experience the beatitude you have felt in that of orgasmic moment- in you- by yourself without a sexual act.

This is Brahmacharya, a redirection of sexual energy towards a meditative experience or other spiritual experiences. It is the withdrawal of the mind and body from the senses. In the Vedic tradition all human beings are governed by a fivefold structure which is
(a) External security, contentment
(b) Fulfillment of our desires
(c) Living according to the natural laws and
(d) Evolving towards ultimate freedom.

Astha, Kama, Dharma and Moksha. A human being can live on all four simultaneously or choose to live on one or other. If his choice is the last that is moksha, mukti transcendence, then the yogic tradition prescribes a code of conduct-these are Yamas and Niyamas. The five Yamas are-

(a) Truthfulness
(b) Honesty
(c) Non possessiveness
(d)Non violence and very importantly
(e) Brahmcharya celibacy.
