Three types of love.

Sex is beautiful it and it makes the world go around. Just like any other need in our life, we should not neglect our physical sexual needs. Physical intimacy and love work in tandem, increased sexual activity helps increase our love. This is a cosmic process embedded in our nature and part of our ongoing evolution. Sex deepens and broadens our minds; it elevates us to the next level of consciousness. Sexual activity like spirituality improves the overall mental and physical health of both partners, to give and to take pleasure for the joy and gratification of our partner as well as ourselves.

It is the vicissitudes of culture, society and the prejudices, of those obsessed with the myths of religion that impede our progress of sexual awareness of our self. We are not truly liberated because our society is not emancipated. If we break free we can realize the celestial potential of the love within us.
We have to question our religious and moral beliefs conditioned over the years, injunctions about the worship of god’s, sacrifice, sin and penance which were laid down by people who were not as evolved.

The vanquished skepticism lives on fully preserved in the body of the established theological texts. When sex is in a normal healthy state, one’s appetite will be infrequent, it must be treated as an act of love & bliss and never of shame, if one has to get out of “the lower” joy into a “higher” bliss. The process starts with falling in love with the physical beauty of your beloved and then it is transformed into intimacy. Physical intimacy can happen with other beauties that will then become your object of attention. Attachment is an illusion and therefore everything physical is less real than the ideal or true form of love, which can be attained only if you are detached. When the cycle repeats many times one finally reaches the ultimate form of mental love which is referred to in different terms, i.e. “platonic love” or “spiritual love”. In this state the physical and sexual intimacy does not happen.

From a dualistic perspective both are possible at the same time. Since physical love is strongly linked to procreation it can take on an ephemeral quality, a sort of eternal love. The real understanding that one must realize is that there are higher joys before which sex is a mere distraction & no longer an emotional or physical necessity. Spiritual or platonic love is the high road to bliss and is much more sublime, but to attain this state one must be satiated and have no more desire for physical sex. This is then the higher realm in the ladder of evolution
