5.7.1 What is the meditation on sexual energy?

To progress along the path to advanced meditation, to realise the meaning and purpose of existence requires a source of energy to power the final, massive transformation of consciousness. The teachings of this book, when fully realised, will guide you in your work with karma, and prepare you for the advanced meditations on the meaning and purpose of existence. This meditation, which requires much hard to work master, will prepare your whole being for the full experiencing of the unity of reality.

All models of reality take a stance on the role of sexuality in life. The Judeo-Christian tradition advocates confining sexual activity within a religiously sanctified, heterosexual marriage. Many religious models of reality advocate renouncing sexual activity altogether and rechannelling the sexual energy through chastity, via a life as a priest, nun or monk.

Most models of reality take a moral attitude towards sexual activity, allowing this and barring that. The Implicate Technology secular model of reality relies for its morality on the inherent moral patterning of existence, as imposed on all human beings by karma. Provided sexual activity is in harmony with the guidelines of Act, it matters not whether the activity is bisexual, homosexual or heterosexual, occurring inside or outside of marriage—all other constraints are not natural, being merely the products of moral, social, political and economic conditions.

From the secular point of view of Implicate Technology, all aspects of existence are understood as being, in practice, illusorily separate strands of an organically unified and purposive whole. In the face of reality, provided your sexual activity is in accordance with Act, your choice of partners and lifestyles is, simply, part of the raw material of your life, which you can refine through understanding into the experience of enlightenment. The primary issue, if you are to attain the final stage of enlightenment, through this or any other teaching, is not how conventional morality views your sexual orientation, but the correct use of your sexual energy.

It is not the purpose of this particular meditation to teach you the specific techniques of using the body’s natural power source to attain the final stage of enlightenment. The scope of this meditation is confined to making you aware of the nature and functioning of your sexual energy, and to making a significant start on generating and utilising your body’s implicate power source. The true nature and purpose of existence can only be realised through a form of implicate technology: sexual energy is the prime psycho-physiological link between your consciousness and the implicate nature of reality.

Be clear on this: your own sexual energy, stored within your body and properly used, in accordance with natural implicate laws, is the power source for the transformation of your consciousness. Through retaining, understanding and mastering your sexual energy, you attain full, final and absolute enlightenment. Through wasting your energy in unenlightened sexual activity, you will abuse the most precious gift your body produces for you.

The practice of this meditation is very simple to undertake, but very hard to sustain. It matters not if you fail, especially in the early stages simply begin the meditation again. What is important is to develop a unwavering determination to succeed: temporary, even repeated, failure is less important than developing a singleness of mind to succeed.
