If you’ve never experienced
your body in its multi-dimensionality, when you engage
in sexual intercourse you experience a profoundly new and quite often
unnerving sense of who you are. You discover your literal
physical self, your vulnerable emotional
self, your mind-boggling, precious self.
You experience your
“self” as “we” in a breathless
and heart-pounding way.
You experience being a me/We.
It is such a boggling sense that no words
seem able to capture it. You find yourself going from baby-talk and
cooing to the creation of special nicknames (which are totally embarrassing
if heard by others) to a tongue-tied silence. It is such a baffling
moment that only laughter and pure silliness and surrender to the moment
allows you and your beloved to transit back to normal time. It is at
such a moment of embracing and un-embracing that you grasp the wonder
of what Creation is … and, must you not wonder what was being
communal felt by those who wrote Genesis? Who presented life
in such a dreary, depressing way? Who, clearly, lived without ecstasy?
When intimate, you are stunned by
a life force which seems to have—without your
conscious intention—descended upon you and embraced you. The
only way that you can express this break-through is to embrace again
and
again. To plunge into your newfound embrace of being
wildly imagined as Beloveds. Over time, through Earthfolk practices
and
rituals, you sustain this intimacy through the nurturing embrace.
In the main, everyone can discover this sense of ecstatically
erotic intimacy.
