A historical, cross-cultural survey of sexuality as a sacred spiritual practice

- Examines sacred sexuality in the world's religious and mystery traditions

- Explores contemporary "sexual stress syndrome" resulting from the absence of the sacred in sexual practice

- Reveals how to find the sacred in the ordinary

This book examines the history of sexuality as a sacramental act. In spite of our culture's recent sexual liberalizations, sexual intimacy often remains unfulfilling. Georg Feuerstein instructs that the fulfillment we long for in our sex lives can only be attained once we have explored the spiritual depths of our erotic natures.

Feuerstein delves into a wide variety of spiritual traditions--including Christianity, Judaism, goddess worship, Taoism, and Hinduism--in search of sacred truths regarding sexuality. He reveals that all of these great teachings share the hidden message that spirituality is, in essence, erotic and that sexuality is inherently spiritual. From the erotic cult of the Great Mother and the archaic ritual of hieros gamos (sacred marriage) to the institution of sacred prostitution and the erotic spirituality practiced in the mystery traditions, Feuerstein offers a wealth of historical practices and perspectives that serve as the bases for a positive sexual spirituality suited to our contemporary needs.

Loved this omegaverse romance
Format: Kindle
♡Knot Their Darling was such a fun omegaverse escape! The story is fast, flirty, and full of heat, with characters that made me smile and swoon all at once. Candy Marie gave just the right mix of spice and sweetness—I couldn’t stop turning the pages.♡

FMC PMO
Format: Kindle
I just felt like two things 1. The character development wasn’t there the character consistency wasn’t there, especially with the FMC. 2. The FMC would literally make the guys feel bad and keep bringing up that they don’t want her there, but then her whole thing has been. I don’t wanna be here so either you wanna be there or not but if you give off vibes that you don’t wanna be there people are not gonna want you there.

Great read
Format: Kindle
Hahahha omg I love Laurie. Momma don't care if you're an Uber alpha, she'll still middle name you & give you a dressing down hahaha. But really, this was a great read, great pacing for a fast paced book (timeline-wise) & great characters that actually felt individual. Plus I always love psycho puppy alphas haha.
