In the previous class we mentioned that we can do certain things in order to increase the output of energy in our Human Machine, which we can use for the work on ourselves. So in this class, we are going to return to the Transmutation of the Hydrogen SI-12, and take a look at the different ways the Human Machine manages the sexual energy. But first, let’s understand the role that Sexual Energy plays in Creation…

 

The “Doubles” or the Mysteries of Duality

“From the dawn of life a great battle has existed between the Powers of Light and the Powers of Darkness.”

“The great battle takes place in the astral light. The astral light is the deposit of all the past, present and future forms of great Nature. The astral light is the Azoth and Magnesia of the ancient Alchemists, the Flying Dragon of Medea, the INRI of the Christians, the Tarot of the Bohemians.

…The astral light is the Lever of Archimedes. The old sage said, “Give me one point of support and I shall move the universe.” ”

The astral light has two poles, one positive, the other negative. The ascending serpent is positive. The descending serpent is negative. When it rises, it is the serpent of bronze that healed the Israelites in the desert. When it descends, it is the tempting serpent of Eden.”

“In the astral light, columns of angels and demons fight each other. Facing each angel is a demon.”

Included in this is the Mystery of Duality, which manifests in the form of “Doubles”, Twin Souls, Nemeses, Rivals, etc.

“In everything, the Doubles resemble one another. The Doubles are analogous, they have the same tendencies, but with the differences of the Analogies of Opposites.

…The Doubles are similar in everything, but they are antithetical. The physiognomy and body of the Doubles are similar because they are twins. This is one of the great mysteries of Occultism.”

– From Ch. 3 of The Perfect Matrimony

 

Understanding the Next Step in the Ascending Ray of Creation

If we are trying to reach to the next “rung” on the ladder, to change from Human Being № 1,2,3 into № 4, followed by №5, then we need to acquire the Solar Astral Body.

Our current “rung” in the Cosmic Octave is the Note MI and the next Note up is FA. FA of the Cosmic Octave corresponds to the Planetary Worlds (of our Solar System), and to the Astral world in the Gnostic Kabalah.

All planets have two polarities in accordance with the great law.

“Anael represents the positive ray of Venus. Lilith represents the negative ray of Venus.”

“Love and anti-love fight each other. Anael is the Angel of Love. Lilith is its Tenebrous Double: Anti-Love. Lilith is the rival of Anael, the fatal antithesis.”

The Beings of Light and of Darkness live in eternal struggle. The root of the great battle between the Powers of Light and Darkness is in sex.

But before we look at how these different Powers manifest in Sex, let’s review Creation and Sex from the Gnostic Perspective…

– From Ch. 3 of The Perfect Matrimony

 

Creation, Sound and Sex

As we mentioned in the first part of this series: the Divinity creates with the Verb, the Word or Logos, with Sound…

“Creation results from the evolutionary processes of sound. Sound is the expression of sexuality.”

When boys go through puberty, their voices noticeably change…

“The Angels create with the sexual power of the Creative Larynx. The unmanifested primordial sound, by means of its incessant evolutionary processes, is converted into energetic forms of dense stabilized matter.

The primordial unmanifested sound is the subtle voice. The primordial sound contains within itself masculine-feminine sexual forces. These forces multiply and become complicated as we descend into the difficult abyss of matter.

The positive pole of sound is the marvelous force which draws us towards the unmanifested Absolute where only happiness reigns. The negative pole of sound is the tenebrous force which attracts us towards this valley of bitterness. The positive pole is Solar, Christic, divine. The negative pole is Lunar and is represented by the Moon.

…Yet, the creation of the phenomenal universe is impossible without the intervention of the lunar forces…

The Sun and Moon represent the positive and negative poles of sound. The Sun and Moon originate creation. The Sun is the husband and the Moon is the wife. Lilith places itself between both, and damages the Great Work. As above so below. Man is the Sun and Woman is the Moon.”

– From Ch. 3 of The Perfect Matrimony

So now let’s take a look at the different kinds of sexuality according to Gnosis (Normal Sexuality, Infra-sexuality and Supra-sexuality).

 

Sexual Energy and Normal Sexuality in the Gnostic Tradition

“Let it be understood that by people of normal sexuality we mean those who do not have any kind of sexual conflict.

The sexual energy is divided into three distinct types.

1st: the energy related to reproduction of the species and the general health of the physical body.
2nd: the energy related to the spheres of thought, feeling and willpower.
3rd: the energy related to the Divine Spirit of the human being.

The sexual energy is really and without any doubt the most subtle and powerful energy normally produced and transmitted through the human organism. Everything that a person is (including the three spheres of thought, feeling and willpower) is nothing other than the precise result of the different modifications of the sexual energy.

Due to the tremendously subtle and powerful nature of the sexual energy, the control and storage of this energy certainly proves to be difficult. Furthermore, its presence represents a source of immense power, which, if one does not know how to manage it, can lead to a real catastrophe.

In the organism there are certain channels through which this powerful energy should normally circulate. When this energy infiltrates the delicate mechanism of other functions, then the violent result is disaster.

In this way, many very delicate centers of the human organism are damaged and, as a result, the individual becomes infrasexual. Every negative mental attitude can lead directly or indirectly to these violent and destructive catastrophes for the sexual energy.

The hatred of sex, hatred of the Arcanum A.Z.F., revulsion or repugnance towards sex, an aversion to sex, the underestimation of sex, passionate jealousies, fear of sex, sexual cynicism, sexual sadism, obscenity, pornography, sexual brutality etc., etc., turn the human being into an infrasexual.”

“Every negative mental attitude toward sex produces infiltrations of this powerful energy into other functions, provoking dreadful catastrophes, the inevitable result of which is infrasexuality.

Every negative attitude of the mind impels the sexual energy, and compels it to circulate through channels and systems appropriate for the mental and volitional energies, or any other type of energy less powerful than the sexual energy.

The result is disastrous because those types of channels and systems (being unable to withstand the tremendous voltage of the extremely powerful energy of sex) overheat and burn out, as does a cable that is too thin and fine when a high tension electric current passes through it.”

“Sex is the creative function by means of which the human being is a true Divinity. Normal sexuality results from complete harmony and concordance of all the other functions. Normal sexuality gives us the power to create healthy children, or to create in the world of the arts or the sciences.

– From Ch. 5 of The Perfect Matrimony

 

Transmutation and the Human Machine

Thus we should work towards the ‘harmonious functioning of our organism’ which implies using the energy in a completely different way: by “transmuting” the Sexual Energy.

This does not mean suppressing the Sexual Impulse, nor does it mean abandoning oneself to the Sexual Impulse, it means learning how to use the Sexual Impulse to our advantage, instead of it using us!

Completed transmutation, that is to say, the formation of the ‘astral body’, is possible only in a healthy, normally functioning organism. In a sick, or a perverted, or a crippled organism, no transmutation is possible.

-Paraphrase from Ch 12 of In Search of the Miraculous

This is because in a sick, perverted or crippled person, there is no energy left to transmute. All the energy or ‘hydrogen’ is already being used in order to accomplish the “needs” of the organism.

In a physically sick person, this is done in order to try and regain health, in a crippled person, this is done to maintain their physical body’s functions (who’s normal functions are atrophied), but to understand this in regards to the perverted person is most important.

The Ego perverts us in one way or another and this manifests as a perversion of ENERGY. The Ego steals our Energy through fascination, identification, obsession, etc. This is why we must learn to work with our Human Machine in order to stop our Egos from stealing our Energy.

“It is necessary to learn how to save the greater part of the energy we possess for useful work instead of wasting it unproductively. Energy is spent chiefly on unnecessary and unpleasant emotions, on the expectation of unpleasant things, possible and impossible, on bad moods, on unnecessary haste, nervousness, irritability, fantasy, daydreaming, and so on.

Energy is wasted on the wrong work of centers; on unnecessary tension of the muscles out of all proportion to the work produced; on perpetual chatter which absorbs an enormous amount of energy; on the ‘interest’ continually taken in things happening around us or to other people and having in fact no interest whatever; on the constant waste of the force of ‘attention’; and so on, and so on.”

-Paraphrase from Ch 9 of In Search of the Miraculous

So we learn to save our energy by struggling against our mechanical habits, negative emotions, nervousness, irritability, daydreaming, etc., so that we have more energy which we can use for conscious works.

One of the most difficult areas for many people to change is their sexual habits. As we have said before, the sexual energy has the power to enslave or to liberate the human being.

Lets take a look at the different types of sexuality that exist, so that we can understand how to best use this marvelous energy.

 

Infra-Sexuality and the Spheres of Lilith and Nahemah

“The kabbalistic traditions say that Adam had two wives: Lilith and Nahemah. Lilith is the mother of abortion, homosexuality and in general, all sorts of crimes against nature. Nahemah is the mother of malign beauty, of passion and adultery.

The abyss is divided into two great regions: the spheres of Lilith and Nahemah. In these two great regions infrasexuality reigns sovereign.

THE SPHERE OF LILITH

Those who hate sex live in the infrasexual sphere of Lilith. It is not difficult to find homosexuality in many convents, religions, sects and schools of the pseudo-esoteric type. Infrasexuals consider themselves to be people immensely superior to those of normal sexuality. They look with contempt upon people of normal sexuality, considering them to be inferior.

All the taboos and restrictions, all the prejudices that presently condition the lives of people of normal sexuality, were firmly established by infrasexuals. The sphere of Lilith is the sphere of the great heresy. These people already have no possibility of redemption because they hate the Holy Spirit. “All manner of sin shall be forgiven, except the sin against the Holy Spirit.”

Sexual energy is an emanation of the Divine Mother. Whoever renounces the Cosmic Mother, whoever hates the Divine Mother, whoever profanes the energy of the Divine Mother, shall be submerged in the abyss forever. There they will have to pass through the second death.

THE PSYCHOLOGY OF THE SPHERE OF LILITH

The sphere of Lilith is distinguished by its cruelty. The psychology of this sphere has various aspects:Monks and nuns who hate sex, homosexuality in convents and outside of monastic life, induced abortions, people who love masturbation, the criminals of the brothels, people who enjoy torturing others.

In this sphere we find the most horrible crimes registered in the police chronicles. Horrible bloody cases, crimes of homosexual origin, terrifying sadism, homosexuality in jails, homosexuality between women, frighteningly, criminally insane people, those who enjoy making their loved ones suffer, horrible infanticides, patricides, matricides etc.

THE SPHERE OF NAHEMAH

The sphere of Nahemah seduces with the charm of her malign beauty. In this infrasexual sphere we find all the “Don Juans” and “femme fatals”. The world of prostitution develops in this sphere. The infrasexuals of Nahemah feel they are very manly. In this sphere live those who have many women. They are happy in adultery. They believe themselves to be very manly, ignoring that they are infrasexual.

In the sphere of Nahemah we also find millions of prostitutes. These poor women are victims of the fatal charm of Nahemah. In the sphere of Nahemah we find elegant women of high social position. These people are happy in adultery. That is their world.

In the infrasexual region of Nahemah we find sweetness that moves the soul. Virgins who seduce with the charm of their tenderness. Beautiful seductive women. Men who abandon their homes be witched by the enchantment of those precious beauties. Indescribable raptures. Unrestrained passions, beautiful salons, elegant cabarets, soft beds, delicious dances, orchestras of the abyss, romantic words that can never be forgotten etc., etc.

The infrasexuals of Nahemah sometimes accept the Arcanum A.Z.F. (Sexual Magic) but fail because they do not manage to avoid the orgasm. They almost always leave the Perfect Matrimony saying horrible things against it. We have heard them saying, “I practiced Sexual Magic and at times I succeeded in not reaching orgasm. I felt like an animal enjoying the delicious passions of sex”.

After leaving the Path of the Razor’s Edge, represented by the spinal column, they seek refuge in some seductive doctrine of Nahemah, and if they are lucky enough not to fall into the sphere of Lilith, they continue to waste their sexual energy. That is their infrasexual world.

PSYCHOLOGY OF THE SPHERE OF NAHEMAH

The infrasexual inhabitants of the sphere of Nahemah are very touchy. They are the ones who use phrases such as these: “Offence must be cleansed with blood”, “I killed because I am a man of honor”, “My honor was slighted”, “I am a wronged husband”, etc.

The character of Nahemah is that of the macho-man who jeopardizes his life for any lady, the passionate kind, a lover of luxury, a slave of social prejudice, the friend of drunkenness, banquets, parties, very elegant fashions etc., etc. These people consider the Perfect Matrimony as something impossible, and when they accept it, they last only a short while on this path…

This type of person enjoys sex in a bestial fashion. When this type of person accepts the Arcanum A.Z.F., they use it for the enjoyment of lust, and as soon as they find some seductive doctrine which offers them refuge, then they leave…

THE MYSTIC OF NAHEMAH

Sometimes we find mystical types in the infrasexual sphere of Nahemah. They do not drink, eat meat or smoke and may well be very religious, though they are not vegetarian. The mystic type of Nahemah is only passionate in secret. They wildly enjoy sexual passions even if later they may make terrible pronouncements against sexual passion.

At times they accept the Arcanum A.Z.F., but leave after a short while when they find some consoling doctrine which preaches phrases such as: “God said ‘Be fruitful and multiply'”. “The sexual act is a purely animal function and spirituality has nothing to do with this act”, etc. Then the infrasexual of Nahemah, finding justification for orgasm, leaves the Path of the Perfect Matrimony.”

-Paraphrase from Ch.4 of The Perfect Matrimony

 

Understanding Sex in the Gnostic Tradition

When man and woman unite sexually in the Perfect Matrimony then they are in those moments of delight, true ineffable Gods. Man and woman sexually united, form a Perfect Divine Androgyne.

A male-female Elohim. A terribly divine Divinity. The two halves, separated from the dawn of life, unite for an instant in order to create. This is ineffable.., sublime… this is a thing of paradise.

The sexual energy is dangerously volatile and potentially explosive. During the secret act, during sexual ecstasy, the couple is surrounded by this tremendous and terribly divine energy.

In these moments of supreme joy and of ardent kisses, we can retain that marvelous light in order to completely purify and transform ourselves.

But, when we spill the Glass of Hermes, when the loss occurs, then the light of the Gods departs, leaving open the doors, so that the red and sanguineous light of Lucifer can enter the home. The enchantment disappears and disillusion & disenchantment arrive.

…Not only does one fornicate physically; but there is also fornication in the mental and astral worlds. Those who engage in lustful conversations, those who read pornographic magazines, those who attend cinemas where they show passionate erotic films, waste enormous reserves of sexual energy. These poor people take the finest and most delicate matter of sex, and waste it miserably in the satisfaction of their brutal mental passions.”

-Paraphrase from Ch.5 of The Perfect Matrimony

 

Sex, Spirituality and the Age of Aquarius

“The struggle of many monks, nuns, anchorites, pseudo-yogis etc., etc., to entrap sex in their religious fanaticism, to confine it in the prison of their penitences, to muzzle it or sterilize it, to prohibit all creative manifestation etc., etc., converts the fanatic into a slave of their own passions, into a slave of sex incapable of thinking of any thing other than sex.

Such people are sexual fanatics, they are the degenerates of infrasexuality. …The human being must learn to live sexually. The age of sex, the New Era of Aquarius has arrived.

We must learn to harness the sexual energy and use it for the development of our spiritual nature.

This is the ultimate purpose of the sexual energy, to create, to regenerate ourselves, and this is possible by studying and understanding how to take advantage of the tremendous energies present during the sexual act.

“Sexual energy can transform us into Angels or into Demons. The image of the truth is found in the sexual energy. The cosmic design of ‘Adam Christ’ is deposited in the sexual energy.

The Son of Man, the Superman or Superwoman, … could never be born from infrasexuals. The kingdom of infrasexuals is the abyss. The Greek poet Homer said, “It is better to be a beggar on Earth than a king in the empire of shadows.” That empire is the tenebrous world of the infrasexuals.”

-Paraphrase from Ch.5 of The Perfect Matrimony

 

One must Descend in order to Ascend

In all of the Pseudo-Occultist schools they talk of arising, ascending to the Superior Worlds, but it occurs to no one to descend, and the serious thing is that for every exaltation there is a corresponding humiliation.

In the Submerged Sphere of Lilith we find those who prefer abortions, and people who use the contraceptive pill, who do not want to have children, and the result is obvious. In the Sphere of Nahemah we find those who are fascinated by Sex, men who are terrible fornicators, women who are given to adultery, pride, vanity, who divorce and marry again.

Kabalistic Traditions say that when a man abandons his wife to marry another, his forehead remains marked with a Luciferic Fire; and that when a woman marries a man who does not belong to her, on the day of the wedding she appears “Bald-Headed”, and she unconsciously covers her head too much.

“WITHOUT TRANSMUTATION NO ONE CAN SELF-REALIZE.”

It is obvious that the Infernal Worlds are infrasexual, it is evident that infrasexuality reigns supreme amongst humanity; some being in the sphere of Lilith, others in that of Nahemah.

When one intends to work in the Ninth Sphere one is immediately attacked by the Red Demons; they work to deviate us from the path of the Razor’s Edge.

The Ascension of the Sexual Forces within ourselves is fundamental to eliminate the “I” within and for the Intimate Self-Realization of the Being.

So we find ourselves before the dilemma of to Be or not to Be. NO ONE CAN SELF-REALIZE WITHOUT THE PRACTICE OF THE MAITHUNA. ONE MUST AWAKEN CONSCIOUSNESS BECAUSE WITHOUT IT ONE ABANDONS THE PATH, SINCE ONE DOES NOT HAVE SERIOUSNESS. PREVIOUSLY, THE SECRET OF THE ARCANUM A.Z.F. WAS NOT GIVEN TO ANYONE WHO HAD NOT AWAKENED CONSCIOUSNESS IN ORDER THAT THEY SHOULD NOT ABANDON THE PATH.”

-Paraphrase from Ch.40 of Tarot & Kabbalah

 

Supra-Sexuality

“Suprasexuality is the result of sexual transmutation. Christ, Buddha, Dante, Zoroaster, Mohammed, Hermes, Quetzalcoatl, and many other great masters were suprasexual.

The two great aspects of sexuality are called generation and regeneration.

By studying the life of animals we discover very interesting things. If we cut a serpent in half we can be sure that it has the power to regenerate itself. It can totally develop a new half with all of the organs of the lost half.

Most worms of the earth and sea also have the power of continuous regeneration. The lizard can regenerate its tail and the human organism its skin. The power of regeneration is absolutely sexual.

The human being has the power to recreate himself. Man can create the Super-Man and Woman can create the Super-Woman within themselves. This is possible using sexual power wisely.

We can recreate ourselves as authentic Supermen and Superwomen. This is only possible with sexual transmutation. The fundamental key to sexual transmutation is the Arcanum A.Z.F. (Sexual Magic). The key to all power is found in the union of the phallus and the uterus.

With sexual transmutation, we regenerate ourselves absolutely. The period of sexual ecstasy is always preceded by the period of sexual enjoyment. Thus, the same energy that produces sexual enjoyment, when transmuted, produces ecstasy.

The age of mystic ecstasy begins when the age of sexual pleasure ends.”

-Paraphrase from Ch.6 of The Perfect Matrimony

 

Alchemy, Supra-Sexuality and the “Adam-Christ”

“All those who attain the Venustic Initiation have a very difficult task to accomplish afterwards. This task consists of the transformation of the sexual energies.

Just as we can transplant a vegetable, transfer a plant from one flowerpot to another, we must also transplant the sexual energy, extract it from earthly man, and transfer it, transplant it, into the ‘Adam Christ’.

In Alchemy, it is said that we must liberate the philosophical egg from the sickening putrefaction of matter and deliver it over to the ‘Son of Man’ once and for all. The result of this work is astonishing and marvelous.

This is precisely the instant when the ‘Adam Christ’ can swallow his human consciousness. The consciousness of ‘Adam the sinner’ must have died before this moment. Only the Inner God can devour the soul.

Upon reaching this point, the Master has absolutely realized. From this moment we have attained continuous ecstasy, the supreme illumination of great hierophants. The birth of the Super-Man and the Super-Woman is an absolutely sexual problem.

We need to be born again in order to enter into the Kingdom of the Heavens. The Super-Man is as different from man as lightning from a black cloud. Lightning comes from the cloud, but it is not the cloud. Lightning is the Super-Man; the cloud is man.

Sexual regeneration activates the powers that we had in Eden. We lost those powers when we fell into animal generation. We re-conquer those powers when we regenerate ourselves. Just as the worm can regenerate its body and the lizard its tail, we can regenerate our lost powers in order to again shine as Gods.

Sexual energies once transplanted into the ‘Adam Christ’ shine with the immaculate whiteness of Divinity. These energies appear then as terrifically divine rays. The grandeur and majesty of the Super-Man is tremendous.”

-Paraphrase from Ch.6 of The Perfect Matrimony

So now that we understand why transmutation of the sexual energy is so important and critical to our spiritual development, lets look at how that is accomplished.

 

Sex Yoga or the different types of Tantrism

“The techniques of SEX YOGA are known by the name of TANTRISM. There exists BLACK, GRAY and WHITE TANTRISM.

In BLACK TANTRISM there is orgasm and the result is fatal because the YOGI converts himself into a Black Magician.

In GRAY TANTRISM no importance is attached to the issue of orgasm, and sometimes the Yogis do it while other times they do not, the key of gray tantrism is that it inevitably degenerates into Black tantrism.

There also exists WHITE TANTRISM, and it is used by initiates of the GREAT WHITE LODGE in order to reach the degree of PRACTICAL ADEPT. White Tantrism is the only way that can be used for creating SOUL or SPIRIT. The theory of WHITE TANTRISM is to CONVERT POISON INTO MEDICINE. By poison we mean the use of sexual attraction and alcohol.

In some Brahmins texts from the SACRED INDIA OF THE VEDAS, the sacred sexual union is considered to be equivalent to a Divine Sacrifice and the Woman or her sexual organs, are considered to be like fire in which this sacrifice is offered.

In one of these texts (the SHARAPATA-BRAHMINS) the woman says: “If you choose to use me for the Sacrifice, then this grants you any blessing that you invoke through me.” Rare are those who can understand these words of the brahmin woman. Really when we are working with the Third Logos, we have the power to create and to request.

The intelligent person can request the awakening of consciousness and their consciousness will awaken, begging GOD and striking with the hammer. We can ask and at the same time give our profound interior consciousness a prevailing command, saying phrases like: “MY CONSCIOUSNESS AWAKEN, MY CONSCIOUSNESS SLEEP NO MORE”.

Each order must be given with pleasure, with emotion, and with a profound longing. The result will be the awakening of the consciousness.

During sleep, the devotee will start to feel conscious, and awaken. The initiate will be able to say: “I am in the internal worlds, my physical body is sleeping on my bed”, the initiate can live consciously in the superior worlds, converted into a conscious citizen of the Cosmos. The problem of astral projection will be totally resolved.”

-Paraphrase from Ch.4 of Great Gnostic Manifesto of the 2nd year of Aquarius
by Samael Aun Weor, available in English in the book Gnostic Christification

 

Tantrism and the Supreme Sacrifice

“TANTRIC BUDDHISM teaches that only with the woman is it possible to reach Nirvana. It is also certain that women can only reach Nirvana with man. The principle characteristic of TANTRISM is to follow a special technique during the sexual act in order to achieve perfect ecstasy.

This technique is based on “COITUS RESERVATUS” that is to say, the sexual act without reaching orgasm. This practice is called the MAITHUNA in India. Before the MAITHUNA, the Hindu Yogi and Yogini pass through a period of difficult esoteric preparation.

A text indicates as a rule that the man must first pass six months adoring and desiring his wife, and sleeping with her in bed for three months on his right side and then three months with her on his left side, but without sexual contact. Only after those six months may they practice the MAITHUNA.

The Tantric texts clearly say that even if the orgasm seems eminent, the Yogi and Yogini must avoid it, through a very special effort. In one text it is recommended to stop breathing at the moment in which the ORGASM is arriving. The book says: “If the student stops breathing, he will not spill his semen, even when he embraces the youngest and most attractive woman.”

It is through this practice that the Hindu Yogis were really initiated, achieved perfect Ecstasy and reached Nirvana. With the MAITHUNA the KUNDALINI is awakened. In truth, the Kundalini is the same fire of the Holy Spirit, the Pentecostal fire. The KUNDALINI is the sacred fire, the Divine Spirit.

When the SOUL receives the fire, it becomes Igneous, it also unites with the SPIRIT, and converts itself into a SPIRIT and becomes eternal. It is urgent to transform the SOUL into SPIRIT.

There does not exist, and there has never existed any other way to create SPIRIT and to make the SOUL IMMORTAL, this is why we teach the Science of SEXUAL YOGA.

It is urgent TO SACRIFICE OURSELVES FOR HUMANITY, TEACHING THE DIVINE SCIENCE TO OTHERS.”

-Paraphrase from Ch.4 of Great Gnostic Manifesto of the 2nd year of Aquarius
by Samael Aun Weor, available in English in the book Gnostic Christification

 

Sacred Sexuality

“The sexual act is the real consubstantialization of love, in the tremendous psycho-physiological realism of our nature. When a man and woman unite sexually, something is created. In those instances of supreme adoration he and she are really one androgynous being with powers to create like the gods. The Elohim are male and female.

The man and woman, sexually united during the supreme ecstasy of love, are really a terribly divine Elohim. In those moments of sexual union we are really in the Laboratorium-Oratorium of Holy Alchemy. We have penetrated, then, into the Sanctum Regnum of High Magic. With these frightfully divine forces we can disintegrate the devil that we carry within, and transform ourselves into great Hierophants.

As the sexual act is prolonged, as the delightful caresses of the adorable ecstasy are increased, one feels an enchanting spiritual voluptuousness. Then we are charging ourselves with universal electricity and magnetism, and terrible cosmic forces accumulate themselves in the depths of the Soul, the chakras of the Astral Body sparkle, and the mysterious forces of the Great Cosmic Mother circulate through all the channels of our organism.

The ardent kisses, the intimate caresses, are transformed into miraculous notes which resound excitedly within the aura of the Universe. We have no way to explain those moments of supreme joy. The serpent of fire is agitated, the fires of the heart are enlivened and the terrifying rays of the Father shine full of majesty upon the foreheads of the sexually united beings.

If the man and woman knew how to withdraw before the spasm, if in those moments of delicious joy they had the strength of will to dominate the animal ego, and then were able to withdraw from the act without the orgasm, then they would have performed an act of Sexual Magic, this is what is called in occultism the Arcanum A.Z.F.

With the Arcanum A.Z.F. we can retain all of that marvelous light, all those cosmic currents, and all those divine powers. Then the Kundalini awakens, which is the sacred fire of the Holy Spirit within us, and we are transformed into terribly divine gods.

But when we orgasm, then the cosmic currents are lost within the universal currents and the luciferic forces of evil, the fatal magnetism, a sanguineous light, penetrates the Souls of the two beings. Then Cupid withdraws, weeping, the doors of Eden close, love converts itself into disillusionment, disenchantment arrives, and only the black reality of this valley of tears remains.

When we know how to withdraw before the sexual spasm, then the Igneous Serpent of our magical powers awakens. The kabalists speak to us about the ninth sphere. The Ninth Sphere of the Kabalah is sex.”

-Paraphrase from Ch.12 of Tarot & Kabalah
