Often made complicated, the connection between spirituality and sexuality is so much more simple than we make it.
Spirituality is our connection to our spirit, to the non-physical aspects of self. We grow our spirituality to grow as an eternal being, as a life-force beyond this physical plane. Our spirituality gives us a purpose for our human life.

Sexuality is our relationship to our body, to pleasure, to our sensuality and to sex—all manifestations of living in a physical human body and experiencing our humanness to the greatest extent and the most intimate core.
Sexuality is our spirituality in physical form.
The problem is that so often the spiritual and physical are put at odds with one another, when they are actually two sides of the same coin. It does not make a person “more spiritual” to “transcend” the sexual or physical. It makes you out of touch with your humanity.
The opposite is true: if you are powerfully connected to and embracing of your physical body and your sexuality, you are living fully in your humanness and that is as spiritual as it gets.
Sexuality is to spirituality as matter is to non-matter.
Sexuality is to spirituality as sensation is to higher thought.
Sexuality is to spirituality as pleasure is to joy.
Sexuality is to spirituality as the erotic is to purpose.
Sexuality is to spirituality as creativity is to divinity.
To live your life denying your sexuality is cutting off your own life blood. It is obfuscating the very energy you were given in order to create a magnificent life.
To deny your spirituality is to deny your existence, your purpose and your own divinity.
The power of creation energy is your sexuality—spirituality in physical form.
You were born from the most intense creative combustion imaginable: two small cells colliding and blending to make an entire new human being. Magical to say the least. Yet we take it for granted that we came from a creative force that powerful, that committed to new life, and we stop seeing it.

Weren’t we put on earth to connect with others and with our environment, to create something, and to grow? Sexuality assists us in all three.
With a critical mass of sexually evolved people, we can change everything that’s wrong about this world and turn on and up everything that is right.
Can spirituality be deepened without sex?or without sexual satiation ,deprived of sex ,if spirituality is attained ,sex can come back unnaturally ? surrendering to oneness is natural desire but man and woman may have emotional and physical desire satisfied through sex and blessed are couple having spiritual compatible seeking communion which is at soul level.open and healthy discussion on such matter is good sign of society .please respond with your view.
I think this makes no sense: “Sexuality is to spirituality as the erotic is to purpose.” What purpose?!
Does sexuality lead man to spiritual enlightenment? What are historical cases?
To me the article is saying that fully embracing “what’s there” is spiritual in and of itself. Which means if sexuality is there, and we attempt to avoid it (aka “spiritual bypassing”) we are doing ourselves an immense dis-service..
To me, fully embracing what’s there in the moment is the action and living embodiment of enlightenment. There is no “other” enlightenment down the road you will ever get to one day. Enlightenment isn’t some prize you win by being good (or bad). Enlightenment is the en-lighten-ing in the moment. The full on presence-in-action now.
This is so accurate man!💚
I on my own try to connect with spirituality through the act of sex and find two major difficulties . Number one: The fire🔥 of sex can’t be controlled and the partner doesn’t support and fully understand the theory of the gate way of spirituality .
