The “Secret of Sex Transmutation” chapter of THINK AND GROW RICH
suggests that you take the same “energy” invested in thinking or
engaging in sex and apply it to your material dreams. That the the
mingled emotions of faith, love, and sex intensifies human thought to
its highest level, and that men and women who achieve at the highest
levels also tend to have very sexual natures, which is highly related to
their drive, ambition, creativity, and accomplishment.
“The
Art of Erotic Intelligence” takes this idea and runs with it. Amara
Charles has studied sexual magic from multiple traditions, and taught
workshops in this challenging—and delicious—discipline around the
world. The kind of lady who will literally climb mountains in Tibet to
spend a few hours with the right teacher. Very much a kindred spirit.
I knew I could not write such a course on my own. Why? Well...
1)
While I’ve studied the disciplines, I don’t “live there.” I have the
knowledge in my body and unconscious, but lack the languaging, and
conceptual mastery to teach.
2) I’m kind of a guy. That means
that no matter what I do, I’m going to see things from a Yang
perspective first. I can ignore this, or over-compensate, but I can’t
simply relax and flow without skewing perspective. I NEEDED that
feminine energy to complete the balance.
Amara and I clashed
for years on what this or that aspect of this concept meant, or could be
or should be applied. But ultimately, we realized that the very lack
of total agreement was no weakness, but rather a strength. That we were
actually representing, in every “spirited discussion”, the very
difference in perspectives that has deviled (and enlivened) the
relationships between men and women through history. But it also
represents the difficulty we have mastering communication within
ourselves. The Left-Brain/Right-Brain split. The Parent-Child split
(and flip a coin as to which is which. No pejoratives implied!) The
Healer-Warrior, or Artist-Engineer, Explorer and Homemaker, Flesh and
Spirit, or Heart and Head, or Creator and Banker, or…or…
If
you have experienced imbalance in any of these arenas. If you suffer
writer’s block, can’t quite figure out how to get paid for the work you
do, lack drive and motivation, keep getting dumped into the “friend”
category in relationships, can’t access your intuitive or calculating
sides, “need” the love and approval of others, can’t “understand the
opposite sex” or satisfy your sexual hungers ethically and without masks
or deception, or any number of other manifestations of imbalance
between the “male” and female” aspects of their inner or outer
lives…then “The Art of Erotic Intelligence” is for you.
Now,
Amara is in an ecstatic relationship with her partner Shyena, so this
isn’t a matter of heterosexuality. That duality goes WAY beyond mere
physical gender. The male and female aspects aren’t like livers and
kidneys—they don’t precisely exist outside of human perspective. But
they are superb metaphors for the internal world, as well as relating to
the joining together of human beings in loving, sexual relationships,
social or commercial relationships.
In Tantra yoga, the model
of human evolution includes the “chakra” system, where the balance of
male and female frees “energy” to rise to the next level and confront
the next set of challenges. In life, balancing your creative/editing,
long term/short term planning or fear/love drives can create chaos,
stagnation, and unbelievable frustration. While the techniques for
accessing the “left brain” aspects can be written and described easily,
the “right brain” flow state aspects are more elusive, more magical, and
seem esoteric or even mystical to those stuck in the linear mode.
It
doesn’t have to be that way. Men and women can have both. It is your
heritage and strength. The “Art of Erotic Intelligence” is pretty close
to unique, a first step to blending these two arenas in a way I’ve
never seen, and that, if you actually hear what is being said, and PUT
IT INTO YOUR BODY by performing the exercises (which are unbelievable
fun!) you will, in thirty days, grasp a truth of our existence that
cannot quite be put into words.
For just three more days, this
breakthrough course is available at a reduced price, and with special
incentive. If any of what I have said speaks to you, this may be what
you have always sought…a hunger you couldn’t quite define, let alone
satisfy.
Passion is power.
Namaste,
Steve
