I love this! I just had a couple of conversations this week with my father about how religious attitudes towards sexuality can be highly toxic and traumatizing to young people. Fortunately, my father is both a Christian and a psychologist and he is capable of stepping back and reassessing things in light of how they affect people psychologically, and he admitted that the purity culture and shaming and so on that he had been a part of earlier in his life wasn't helping people and was traumatizing them instead. I'll have to go check out the full discussion now.
Closeness to the divine at "that moment" I thought was a Pagan idea. Interesting to see its broader. This is not an area of life I've much experience of, but I agree with you that so much is wrong about it. The creator did not bless me with the love of another, but maybe she will appear one day..
to me the most intersting sexual part from the Bible is that in the Book of prophet Hosea (Hōšēa: "Salvation"): God gives order to the prophet to marry the promiscuous women Gomera as a symbolic prophetic act. She represents the Israelites (or if we read it more personal, she represents every human soul) and Hosea represents God. The message is this: even God knows how we are unfaithful He wants us, He wants to be in union with us. Even though Gomer runs away from Hosea and sleeps with another man, he loves her anyway and forgives her. From the christian perspective Hosea is Christ and the Gomer is Church (or, again, any person, a "believer")
I have recently come across your channel by binging on Esoterica.. and then Angela’s symposium, and this is absolutely amazing. I have never heard sexuality and union from this sacred viewpoint. My hope is that this viewpoint spreads an honest awareness that can heal us. God blessed us with a connection that transcends, and it should be reclaimed, because the world has taught the opposite in sexuality. I also recently watched a video by Jon Adams on mystic sexuality and purity, and it was on the finding a balance between stigmatizing sex and being controlled by lusts. There is so much pain and confusion by our lack of understanding on this important topic. It’s just not talked about really. I love how you explained reunification (simultaneously above and here). Incredibly brilliant work! Thank You!
The subject matter happened to have been predominantly heteronormative because of the literature we were discussing, but we have only love for all people, gay, straight or queer. With love, Zevi
I just want to say respectfully. This still seems to be skirting around the edges of the full force of our sexual desire. I do not see why sexual desire at its most wildly frenzied and so called "hedonistic" need be incompatible with entirely respecting another - or others plural. Or with mysticism. William Blake's The Marriage of Heaven and Hell came to mind: All Bibles or sacred codes have been the cause of the following errors:- 1. That man has two real existing principles, viz., a Body and a Soul. 2. That Energy, called Evil, is alone from the Body; and that Reason, called Good, is alone from the Soul. 3. That God will torment man in Eternity for following his Energies. But the following contraries to these are true:- 1. Man has no Body distinct from his Soul. For that called Body is a portion of Soul discerned by the five senses, the chief inlets of Soul in this age. 2. Energy is the only life, and is from the Body; and Reason is the bound or outward circumference of Energy. 3. Energy is Eternal Delight. Those who restrain desire, do so because theirs is weak enough to be restrained; and the restrainer or reason usurps its place and governs the unwilling. And being restrained, it by degrees becomes passive, till it is only the shadow of desire. ...Interestingly, the prudery around sexual desire, emerges in Hellenistic Judaism. A response to Plato's bifurcation of the spirit / body? And is entirely foreign to the Hebrew Bible.
As long as all parties are honest and open with themselves and each other there is no harm in any pleasure in moderation. The problem is it can become addictive and people rarely are honest and open, they cannot control their emotions and love, jealousy and hurt feelings often arise. Someone gets hurt then they hurt another in response and the pain ricochets around the system.
@@kpllc4209 I see. So emotional and spiritual maturity would be the ability to experience the fullness of ones desire, without attaching it to insecurity on the one hand, or as a means to numbing insecurity on the other. That is, its our relationship to desire, rather than desire itself which is at issue.
@@pasquino0733 Yes, the desire is natural. Sexual desire is the ultimate desire, many species of animals will die right after reproducing. That is why it is so strong and should be respected. Being emotionally and spiritually mature would enable you to do that but good luck finding others that are at your level. That is why you are walking a tightrope; some people can handle it while it ruins others. Emotions will be at their highest and things go bad. It is all about how you treat other people. You can have fun but don't hurt others or yourself in the process.
I sincerely hope that he doesn't have access to children or have children of his own. If a grown man can speak this brazenly about the sexualisation of children in a video that he knew would be uploaded to social media then I dread to think what he gets up to behind closed doors. Thanks for this video though. It's been VERY educational :).

I was married to a girl who honestly told me that her distant Grandfather was Rabbi Issac Luria who wrote the Lurian Kabbalah.
Very cool
Wonderful 🙏💃 It is all about infinite love, divinity and connection ❤

It depends on the Khabalist.. Its clear to me the goal of some powerful people is androgyny and imposing it on earth in as above so below.
Another great video, man. Keep up the good work!
Thank you brother. I've been really admiring and appreciating your work as well.
brother what about Gay Person?
The subject matter happened to have been predominantly heteronormative because of the literature we were discussing, but we have only love for all people, gay, straight or queer. With love, Zevi

@@kpllc4209 Yes I agree. We need to factor in and be respectful towards where everyone is in relation to their sexuality.
