One of my first spiritual teachers, a channeled spirit named Dr. Peebles, used to say “Orgasm is a glimpse of enlightenment.” He explained that the moment of orgasm contains the essence of enlightenment — the ecstatic dissolve into a sense of oneness. And furthermore, it is the most accessible glimpse of enlightenment for most people.
At the time I was in my early 40s, the peak of a woman’s sexual energy. I thought it was pretty cool that something that was so compelling in my life could be a path to enlightenment. But frankly, my priority was more on the orgasm than the enlightenment. I had been practicing and teaching sacred sexuality for about five years at that point, and I regularly utilized practices that encourage full-body orgasms that last for extended periods of time. It was not unusual for me to experience orgasm for an hour or even longer. I reasoned that the longer I was in orgasm the deeper the glimpse of enlightenment. But the extended orgasms were enough to keep me doing the practices. Enlightenment seemed like a very distant goal.
Fast forward twenty-some years later. I had continued the practices of deep orgasmic bliss. One day I had an experience that showed me the truth of what Dr. Peebles had been saying. I was making love with my partner John and lying back as he pleasured me. I imagined my yoni (vulva) as a cosmic portal. In the next moment I had a vision of a yoni made of rays of light on a black background. Then suddenly I shifted into a field of light. There was no “I” anymore, just a sense of oneness with all that is. It was a moment of enlightenment.
Since then, those moments have come more and more frequently. Enlightenment no longer seems like a distant goal.
The path is often like this. The pleasure of orgasm is a powerful alluring energy. It provides the motivation to keep doing the practices.
The first step is to fully embrace your sexual energy, and learn to express it joyfully and enthusiastically. For many people that is enough, and there’s nothing wrong with that. The more orgasmic energy there is in the world, the more joy and peace there is!
Some people want to take it further, all the way to enlightenment. I celebrate those people as well.
If this is a path that intrigues you, I can help you walk it. Whether it is freeing up your sexual energy, or learning to use it for your enlightenment, I’ve been there and I’ve helped many people along that path.
I just completed with a long-term client, so I have an opening in my schedule now. If you would like to explore either the process of embracing your sexuality fully or the process of using your sexual energy for enlightenment, I would love to help you.
The first step would be to get on the phone with me for a free Sexual Communion Gateway Session. This link will give you more information about the session and you can book your appointment there.
I look forward to connecting with you!
