Achieving Sexual Wholeness – The Awesome Benefits of Conserving Sexual Energy and Transmutation

Related to trantra, this spiritual approach to sexuality is, under the right conditions, most incredibly fulfilling.

There is nothing more immensely satisfying and fulfilling than the transmutation of stored sexual energy. However, it is not an ordinary accomplishment to successfully conserve one’s vital “sexual energy” fluids for indefinite periods of time and transmute that sexual energy.

One needs to know the “big picture” as to what activities best transmute the sexual energy, how to maintain sexual health (essential) and have the wisdom and faith necessary to see it through. Another vital consideration is the diet needs to be high in raw food, super food supplements and antioxidants, especially those foods, supplements, and herbs that support sexual health and wholeness.

Very few fully understand the whole process and how beneficial overcoming the addiction to conventional orgasm can be, let alone even have the slightest notion that the common craving for basic sex is in fact a built-in biochemical addiction involving mainly the neurohormones dopamine (the sexual excitation neurotransmitter) and prolactin (the sexual satiation hormone). Yes, I consider that the natural craving for conventional orgasm to be another one of countless addictions one can be subject to and certainly worth overcoming or transforming into a much wiser, more fulfilling level of being alive and even as a key to helping one overcome other addictions and emotional attachments.

When one thinks of celibacy, one usually visualizes some content, wise and peaceful aging ascetic monk, alone in a quiet cell contemplating God or chanting in a beautiful Latin chorus with hundreds of other monks. On the other extreme are the tantric lovers dancing in each other’s arms thrilling each other through and through with profound ecstasy and love.

In both of the above situations and everything in between, there is, hopefully a conservation of sexual fluid and a transmutation of sexual energy. However, the tantric lovers “celibacy” is a more of a shared experience than a monk’s form of celibacy.

To remain celibate even during an intimate relationship requires tremendous self-control, self-discipline, self-understanding and years of experience with celibacy. Why even bother? Because the benefits and sheer power of conserved sexual energy, especially while in a relationship with the opposite sex, once mastered and fully transmuted is profound love, intimacy and joy on a whole new level, and I mean really intense, everlasting, love, pleasure, and a sense of wholeness like nothing else. With or without a relationship, one can live in complete joy and I mean live in complete joy forever.

Some yogis have tried celibacy for years and years but achieved very few if any of the benefits I am certain of. The reason: because there are so many tricky aspects to having fully transmuted celibacy and so much to understand and explain.

Most important of all, one’s sexual organs and rest of endocrine gland system, and health in general must be whole. Not much meaningful benefit can ever come from the kind of celibacy that is a result of illness, impotence, frigidity, hormone imbalance, glandular problem(s), arterial sclerosis, extreme old age, or any kind of surgical removal.

If there is no sexual energy to transmute, what then is the good of being celibate? Celibacy is only a symptom of an illness in that sense.
