Meditation techniques for sexual awareness

An individual could be in an unconscious state even though his or her eyes are wide open.  Any sexual act performed from a state of unconsciousness becomes more a way of releasing tension rather than emphasising the erotic and meditative aspects.  Sexual awareness means that you accept your sexuality as a beautiful part of yourself and not simply for a few minutes of pleasure or stress relief. Until and unless man and woman accept their own sexuality as a natural and beautiful gift from God, their sexual performance will generally be short and frustrating.

The art of meditation teaches you that this god-given act of sex is natural and instinctive in all of us.  The following technique will help you introspect and follow your instincts rather than follow rules of sexual performance.

STEP 1

•  Sit in Padmasana

•  Breathe naturally. Focus on your breathing and each time you exhale let the whole body relax. Do this for two minutes

•  Now bring your awareness to the lower half of your body.

STEP 2

•  Bring your awareness to the root plexus called the Mooladhara Chakra, the point between the anal and genital areas

•  Completely bring your mind to this point and breathe in and out deeply.

STEP 3

•  Inhale and as you exhale mentally chant the beej mantra "Ra".  As you do this, keep relaxing and loosening the body

•  Now bring your natural focus to your sex organs and concentrate the energy there

•  Focus until you feel tired

•  Lie down and breathe deeply.
