Deepak Chopra: Are Sexual and Spiritual Energy the Same?

Thursday August 21, 2008

Tantra believes sexual and spiritual energy are the same because they're the universe's creative energy. They can be used for passionate lovemaking or art, poetry, music, and be channeled for transformation and manifestation.

in the anicient time it was true that both the energy were same because the people had used this sexual enrgy not only for enjoyment.Both the activities require the higher concentration, affection, love and lot of devotion between two partner (For sexual energy naturally a man and a woman and for spritual energy your direct connection with God or spirit or Self). But now in the modern society this form of sexual energy is being used just like a play or enjoy ech other and after that forget it.It is just like how we use the nuclear energy - either for construction purposees or destruction.

So my views are unless we have fully devotion and real love each other we can not achieve thatlevel.People are working at sensual or mental or intellectual level. Until we use our forth level that is spritual level for our all activities we can not achieve our target or we an not achieve in real sense neither of. Naturally one can convert the sexual energy into the spiritual energy as mentioned above by other authors that is in the second chkra. The results come by using the spritual level are totally different as compared to using only our two energy level -sensual and mental in our daily activities including the sex also.

thanks for your comments.

When we talk sexual energy, we're talking about an experience, right? We can say, at least, what it feels like. I would then suggest seeing sexual energy in experiential terms. A rippling, flowing, tingling, and sometimes mind-blasting corruscation. Sex, to our awareness then, can become a phenomenal experience in the foreground, while spirit, its imagined source, resides invisibly in the background. It presents itself as invisible ripples on the surface of an invisible ocean. When these ripples occur, we MAY begin to get a "sense" of an inconceivable "beyond." We intuit a much larger dimensional depth. This does not mean that sex is "the" gateway to God (wouldn't we just love to take this literally). But like many experiences, it can be used that way, to open us up to dimensions behind those ripple effects. A mandala, imagined in a certain way, helps us receive an impression of deeper reality. Sex, imagined a certain way, may do the same. Sometimes.

Dear Deepak,
I heard a woman in one of your seminars talk about women squirting (actually ejaculating) from their vaginas ? Can all women squirt like this ? If this is so, it would seem that spiritual and sexual energy are the same.
Please let me know if all woman can squirt (even across a room) when expressing sexual energy. And HOW does that work ?

Aum Gam Ganapatayeh Namaha
.the characteristics of absolute existence being Sat-Chid-Ananda is the way that the static and the dynamic are dual and non-dual. so the answer would be equally solved and unsolved through the same answer to the nature all things being yes and no simultaneously. Let us be appreciative that we can experience it in whichever way we choose in the current lasting everlasting. Aum Sri Ganeshayeh Namaha.

Yes I believe that they are the same. The reason I say that is I could not understand why so many people think that the only way to dispurse passion is only through sex.I hear so many people have so many sex partners & they are still unhappy or they feel they need to lie about what their intention are towards others. Sometime people think that if you are not using the passion for sex that you maybe weird.
