Kundalini Yoga and Love Energy

When we allow our love energy to flow we can be fully alive. The practice of kundalini yoga is a path to opening up the channels of love energy. Raising kundalini energy is a powerful technique for holistic health and healing. When you open up all of the energy centers in your body (your chakras), your life energy flows freely, allowing you to love yourself and others more fully. This powerful life force we call love energy is the way of nature, the way nature intended us to be, fully alive and energized, functioning on all channels, the full spectrum of living.

"Love and intimacy are at the root of what makes us sick and what makes us well, what causes sadness and what brings happiness, what makes us suffer and what leads to healing." - Dean Ornish, MD, from Love & Survival

Cultivating Love Energy

Love energy is the same as life energy. It is the energy that is in all living things. It is active, vital, and creative. It is known by many names including: prana, ki, kundalini, shakti, orgone, aura. To quote Wilhelm Reich, "Since the life process and the sexual process are one in the same, it goes without saying that sexual, vegetative energy is active in everything that lives." The word "vegetative" in this case means "fully alive, full of life, growing, creative." Life energy is sexual energy. Life energy manifests as electro-magnetic energy. When the natural flow of life energy is blocked in the process of daily life, it causes the energy to come out as physical or mental illness. Modern life is particularly stressful and we internalize many messages which inhibit the flow of life energy. Love Energy Healing is the process by which life energy is released to facilitate healing.

Sexual energy is life energy. Releasing blocked sexual energy can contribute to personal happiness, health, learning, creativity, and well being. Realizing the potential of life energy means getting in touch with your body, feeling your feelings, and breathing the breath of life. It means loving yourself and giving yourself the gift of joy and pleasure.

Energy is the very essence of the entire universe. Everything is made of energy. We are made of energy. We are built of atoms, that are particles of energy. The processes within our bodies are energetic processes. Our bodies generate electromagnetic fields and heat energy. Being alive is an energetic process. Creativity is an energetic process. Growth is our nature. When we become adults we may stop growing physically, but we may continue to grow intellectually, emotionally and spiritually.

Love energy grows and expands where there is a container of safety. Love energy is the juice of creativity and learning. Mother love provides the safety for the child to grow and expand, to learn and to create.

The container of safety, the womb of safety, must be custom created for each person or couple or group no matter how many people it is. The more people, the more complex it becomes. It is a balancing act. It is important to provide enough structure for the most vulnerable, contracted person to feel safe, yet exciting enough for the most expanded, fearless person to feel fully engaged. For instance, some people may feel comfortable in groups of people they don’t already know, in workshops. Other people may require time to build a sense of safety with people they do not already know.

Bliss is a state of consciousness in which one feels free from worry and anxiety. It is a state of happiness, a very high state of joy. It may be experienced during meditation, exercise, sex, and prayer among other methods. It is a transcendent state of consciousness, of heightened awareness and energy, more fully alive. Bliss is the result of cultivating love energy. Bliss is our pure state, our natural state, the state we were designed to be in. Because modern life is stressful, we need to consciously practice to achieve bliss. By practicing the cultivation of love energy we may learn to spend more time in a blissful state.

"Love is the secret key; it opens the door to the divine. Laugh, love, be alive, dance, sing. Become a hollow bamboo and let love's song flow through you." - Bagwan Shree Rajneesh

The Spiritual Practice of Love Energy Rituals

Rituals are a way to focus energy. They can be done by oneself or with one other or with more than one. Rituals can take many forms. In this case, the intention is to raise sexual energy. The energy thus generated may then be channeled into manifesting health or peace or joy or abundance or other loving purposes. Sacred Erotic Ritual is kind of prayer. It is also a kind of magic.

The rituals are designed to build up energy. Once the energy is built up to the desired level, then the object is focused upon. The energy is directed at the target and released. The transfer of energy is the result. Doing rituals on a regular basis is a sacred practice, a sacrament. Repetition and regularity deepen the power of the experience.

"The day will come when, after harnessing space, the winds, the tides, and gravitation, we shall harness for God the energies of Love. And on that day, for the second time in the history of the world, we shall have discovered fire." - Pierre Tielhard De Chardin

Morning Ritual of Deerheart

When I wake up in the morning, I may put on meditative music (new age, classical, etc) and do yoga postures. Then I sit in front of my alter, with sacred objects on it, like shells, candles, incense, chimes, stones, yoni symbols, lingam symbols, and images of the Goddess Parvati and/or the Goddess Sarasvati. Parvati is the Goddess of beauty and Sarasvati the Goddess of creativity. I bow to the Goddess(es), ring my chime, and put on my pendants and mala. I meditate and chant my affirmations. I practice relaxation breathing, slow and rhythmic. I may also raise my sexual energy to honor the Goddess and perform magickal manifestation. The female sexual energy of the Goddess merges with the male sexual energy of the God within me to create a powerful synergy. When I raise my sexual energy I usually have waves of bliss surging through my whole body. I may focus that energy on a particular manifestational intention. When I am finished I thank the Goddess and the God, ring my chime and remove my ritual items from my body.

"The severity of every form of psychic illness is directly related to the severity of the genital disturbance. The prospects of cure and the success of the cure are directly dependent upon the possibility of establishing the capacity for full genital gratification. . . Orgastic potency is the capacity to surrender to the flow of biological energy, free of any inhibitions; the capacity to discharge completely the dammed-up sexual excitation through involuntary, pleasurable convulsions of the body." - Wilhelm Reich, from The Function of the Orgasm

Tantra Puja

Tantra is a powerful spiritual practice involving meditation and erotic ritual. Some of the reasons for practicing tantra are: for personal healing, for magical manifestation, to honor the Goddess, for more enjoyable sex, for greater intimacy, and to raise consciousness for attaining deep bliss and enlightenment. A tantra puja is a devotional circle ritual, designed to open the hearts of participants. Usually this is conducted with equal numbers of females and males, who nurture each other as they change partners all around the circle. It is a wonderfully blissful experience.

Sacred Erotic Painting

The act of sacred painting is an expressive meditational practice. Images of Goddesses and Gods have special spiritual importance and power. Honoring the sacred human form is a form of worship. Erotic images of bodies, genitals, and sexual acts are powerful symbols, which deserve our reverence. Art modeling for sacred erotic art is another way to honor the Goddess and the God.

Sacred Erotic Dancing

Sacred dance is another form of meditation. By embodying the essence of divinity, of Goddess or of God, we both experience our own power and share that power with others. Dancing for or with another person a powerful form of communication, a form of sharing on a deep level, if one allows oneself to go there. In sacred erotic dancing, movement is used to raise erotic energy within the body.

Sacred Erotic Chanting

Sacred chanting is a meditation using the breath and sound. Sacred chanting is a powerful transformative tool. It can create deep states of trance consciousness. It can connect us vibrationally to our own bodies, the bodies of others, and to the universe. In sacred erotic chanting, the focus is on raising erotic energy through deep rhythmic breathing and passionate vocalizing.

Sacred Self-Love

Loving and honoring oneself is a sacred sacrament. For inspiration in the art of self-loving, see the work of Betty Dodson and Annie Sprinkle. Betty Dodson has a book called Sex for One. Both Betty and Annie have videos available on Self-loving. They have both been a great inspiration in my life, to love myself without shame.
