THE ELIXIR
Throughout history, some cultures and traditions have made allusion to the relationship of the two human sexes in a way other than is presently known and manifested. At the beginning of the 21st century the female of the species is struggling to attain a degree of parity with her male counterparts in some of the "industrially westernized" countries, but throughout the rest of the human population there is no question of female subservience to male domination. Strangely, this imbalanced relationship has come about because of a reaction to a feature of human biology. Although nowadays the males strut about as if the masters of the species, there is a little secret that totally contradicts this notion of male superiority. It has to do with the fact that there is something very special about the sexuality of the human female. It is scientifically known that a great number of women are able to experience wave after wave of multiple orgasms during sexual intercourse. (This comes about through a primary order of vulval energy receptors and transformers in the clitoris and vagina, connecting to and able to integrate all other systems in the body.) Males seem to be able to experience only one ejaculatory orgasm at a time, after which a recovery period is necessary in order to continue intercoursing. Due to this essential difference between the way sex is experienced by females and males, a peculiar twist has occurred in human relationships over the past 4000 years. When a woman is fully aroused sexually, she can literally continue building the energy well beyond the stimulation tolerance of almost any man. Sexually speaking, the female is more developed and powerful than her male counterpart. Through special work practices the male can be brought into sexual balance with her. Long ago this was recognized by both males and females, and as a result many traditions gave females the sacred work of initiating males into the deeper potentialities of sex. These deeper potentialities are connected to transformational energies that actually allow human beings to consciously evolve at a far faster rate than accidental mechanical evolution would. And at one time, this was exactly what was achieved by the sexual priestesses and their partners in the ancient Tantric traditions. It must be noted that conscious balance and high indifference were the foundation of these loveplays, not the imbalance of any ego structure. Tantric work of this order provides regenerative force to the greater Universe. It is one of Humanity's true functions to consciously transform, regenerate and transcend all apparitions of scale, distinction and self-image in any and all "universes" that may appear. Based on these principles, sexual initiatresses would carefully guide their male consorts into the higher dimensions through practices that allowed for integration into levels beyond primate-human psychology. (One of these beginning practices helps a man to develop the ability to have orgasms in which he injaculates thereby accumulating the force rather than blowing it off through ejaculation. The process is analogous to fusion instead of fission unifying rather than fragmenting.) Through their mutual efforts practitioners were able to attain parity in the complementary energies that constitute a harmonious human being, a being who would then be able to direct hir evolution at an incredibly accelerated rate, instead of at the interminable drag of ordinarily imbalanced existence. Through conscious recognition of this biological fact and the correspondingly profound possibilities that the Universe had thus evolved for the species, many human beings were able to realize completion of their potentials through Tantra. However, because for some of the males with less developed reason this situation appeared to put them into the position of servants and pupils to their female instructors, and because fear, pride, vanity and aggression wouldn't allow them to admit or comprehend that with regard to sex, and wisdom in general, the male was indeed in need of the knowledge, power and subtlety that the female could pass on to him for everyone's benefit, these vainglorious and violent ones decided to create a diversion through other means. Because they were generally larger and slightly stronger physically, and immensely more unethical, they coerced the more peaceful (male and female) members of their species into the fabricated orders of their inflexible, rigidly small minds. Through terror, murder and subterfuge they forced others to accept their limited views and abilities, and slowly but surely they undermined and corrupted the miraculous gift of female sexual potency by the suppression and control of all women. At the same time, they put out political and religious propaganda that women were inferior, weaker, untrustworthy and thus needed to be protected and controlled by men. They also subverted the role of women to that of being merely breeders of the human species. The secondary feature of reproduction was then given primacy, and after awhile the very idea that there was a much greater potential to sex was all but lost, except for a few pockets of resistance to this self-imposed ignorance. Within these small groups that still had knowledge of the higher active functions of sex, information was preserved of the female's role in higher transformational work. Through this work a human being could realize completion and perfection in that form of consciousness, and thus move on to the next level of conscious evolution in the greater universe. The passive reproduction aspect was merely a safety valve for bringing into physical manifestation that portion of consciousness that had not yet completely realized its innate unconditionality and perfection. These new embodiments would then continue to work on realization of their complete potential until there was no longer a need to re-manifest as a human being in any form. With regard to the kinds of conceptions that brought these unrealized portions of consciousness into re-manifestation, they were always voluntarized by the participants and thus the newly arisen beings would be brought into conditions that would attune and orient them to the necessities of the conscious work into which they were born. The perfecting of consciousness was the primary emphasis within these work situations, and the process of incarnation was used for bringing in beings with the capability of spreading the knowledge and beingness of this principle. In the raw, wild state, the female is capable of reaching ecstatic equilibrium through the sheer energy of her sexual drive. At this point of white hot ignition, certain alchemical changes take place. Not only does the body chemistry change, but with regard to being the consciousness also changes. There is a multidimensional shift in which the consciousness and not the chemistry now determines the state. All internal relationships are adjusted to a more conscious balance. During this, the male must be able to accommodate the totally abandoned force of the female's energy without being "blown off" by the incredible intensity. If this state of transpassionate accommodation is able to be maintained to the point of ignition in the female without male ejaculation, a special elixir flows from her which is to be absorbed by him, a situation in which he becomes a receptacle for her compassion-impregnated outpourings. Then a conscious fusion can take place in which the bipolar energy of the human is Being unified. Consciousness as such is an endless extension of refined-undefined non-duality. There is no longer the viewpoint of a "self" as an isolated fixation, but rather a viewless, qualityless void which nonetheless is immanent of and as everything. (Absolutely vital to tantric transformation/awakening is Primal Trust. Primal Trust is the true ground of all conscious work it is the seat of Conscious Love, Compassion, Faith, Hope, Conscience and it is the direct Pathway to Truth.) A hint of the practice whereby this type of "fusion" was brought about is still carried to us through some of the esoteric art of ancient Egypt and India. Isis has intercourse with her dead husband's corpse and gives birth to Harpocrates, the Redeemer. Kali literally fucks the dead Shiva back to life. What are these strange images trying to tell us? They are in fact ciphered descriptions of the aforementioned sexual transformational work. In order to be able to tolerate the completely uncontrolled sexual frenzy of his female partner, the male is totally relaxed and absorbed into the death meditation. He is meditating on the Clear Light Wisdom. Through this wisdom, at the moment of ignition the male energy is flawlessly drawn up to the same level of intensity as that of the female, and at the precise moment of equilibrium, fusion occurs in which pure consciousness, not matter/energy is realized as the Mother/Father of Reality. But it is an unbirth rather than a birth. Not an entering into a perpetually fragmenting reality based on space/time separation and division but a conscious non-re-entry into unbroken continuity, the annihilation of polarity into pure being. Not the Mother/Father but the One Love, Beloving. In this context "resurrection" is only a dualistic term for that which has never been born nor dead, nor "alive" in the context of the point between conception and terminus. Nor is this conception "immaculate"; it is indeed conceptionless. |
