“As the fires blend in sexual joy,
Enter that blessed place between the legs,
Embrace the holy energies shimmering there.”
— The Radiance Sutras, by Lorin Roche
John and I have a practice that we embed in our regular connection ceremonies. One of us will flip the pages of The Radiance Sutra and the other one will poke our finger into the flipping pages to select a sutra to focus upon for the day. The Radiance Sutras are a modern-day translation of the Vijnana Bhairava Tantra, an ancient spiritual teaching text. Only a few sutras are focused upon sexuality. It’s a wide range of pathways to spiritual connection.
I must admit, my first thought when I got this one was, “Oh, boy! It’s going to be a fun day!” I like feeling the shimmering joys. And yes, it was a fun day!
There was a moment when I felt a revelation. Let me tell you about it.
John was giving pleasure to me, and I was lying back and receiving. There was a lot of energy flowing. For most of my adult life, if I was in that much energy, I would have been very dramatic. Lots of wild movements and loud sounds. But this time, I remembered this sutra.
I got very still and focused upon the light between my legs. I could feel it flowing like a raging river. I sensed the bones of my pelvis as a gateway. I focused upon stillness and watching the energies flow through that gateway. I felt like a surfer must feel, balancing upon the wildness, staying focused in the moment. It was a wild ride within the stillness, which was within the wildness. (Inside and out were somewhat blended.)
Then a beautiful thing happened. I sensed my pelvic bones dissolving into the light. It was gradual, starting at the edges the way that water will wear away rock. I stayed still and calm as the river of light roared and my pelvis dissolved, until there was nothing left but light and flow. It felt delicious and expansive and awe-inspiring, like a reminder of what’s all around us and through us. Some call it God or many other names. I like Source, because I believe it’s where we come from when we incarnate and where we return when we die. But there are really no adequate words.
I’m in a delightful exploration of sacred sexuality, and I have been for many years. It is getting more and more spiritually expansive. I regularly have experiences like this, which are so profound and impactful that I am inspired to share what I’m learning. That’s why I’m starting Bliss: Dissolve into Universal Oneness. It’s an advanced spiritually-focused group for both couples and singles, using sacred sexuality as a pathway to spiritual expansion. I’m teaching from my own experience, drawing upon moments like I just described here. The group begins January 10, 2025.
