Excellent A sweeping intelligent study of sacred sex long overdue Especially - photo 1

Excellent! A sweeping intelligent study of sacred sex long overdue! Especially one helpful to individuals in their spiritual and sexual growth and useful to popular culture. Those practicing Tantra already will find their excitement rekindled, their minds stimulated, and spirits re-enthused as they move to the next evolutionary stage.

DEBORAH SUNDAHL, author ofFemale Ejaculation and the G-Spot: Not Your Mothers Orgasm Book!

Eros Ascending profoundly explores the power of shakti and sacred sexuality as life-transforming sacraments. [The book is] a journey into higher states of consciousness and ecstasy.

CHARLES MUIR, author ofTantra: The Art of Conscious Lovingand founder of Source School of Tantra Yoga

Eros Ascending is one of the few and finest offerings to honor the concept of the sacredness of sexuality. The powerful knowledge, examples, and practices in this book have the ability to transform each and every one of us. As I dare to even imagine a world thus transformed, the tingle of energy rises up my spine in recognition of the divine ecstasy all around us.

SUZIE HEUMANN, author ofThe Rules of Love: The 64 Arts of the Kama Sutraand founder of www.tantra.com

For any sexual explorer, like myself, this book is a must. [It is] a work of profound scope, weaving insight, information, and inspiration into a rich tapestry of personal experience.

DIANA RICHARDSON, author ofTantric Orgasm for Women

Playing Carl Gustav Jung in his marvelous award-winning twenty character one-man play Forever Jung (which I saw twice) must have had a profound effect on John Maxwell Taylor. In Eros Ascending he speaks with a depth of humanity and psychological insight that Jung would doubtless recognize as a complete expression of the authors living ethos. This book transcends the mere scholarly to reach through the mind and touch the soul.

DR. HERB AGAN, Jungian psychologist and frequent lecturer at the Jung Center of Houston

FOREWORD

I n my twenty-five years as a therapist I have consistently observed that much personal unhappiness is caused by a failure to integrate the sexual, spiritual, and emotional aspects of human nature. But in the last fifty years ancient esoteric ways of spiritualizing our erotic impulses have migrated from the East to the West. The Vedas state that when darkness increases, when human confusion is great and righteousness declines, the truth incarnates to bring light to the world. Golden lotuses of information about sacred sexuality are now blossoming on the surface of the Western hemisphere of the collective unconscious. By embracing time-tested Eastern sexual practices and adapting them to the evolutionary needs of the twenty-first century, men and women all over the world are directly experiencing sexual and spiritual ecstasy as aspects of one and the same thing.

On the cover of this book we see Eros cradling Psyche in his arms as they fly upward into the golden light of truth. Traditionally we think of Psyche (the Soul) as being somehow up line from our mortal selves, a divine force with which we need to connect for the salvation of the human self. But in this illustration we see the position reversed. Eros, the sexual archetype, is in the upper position, and is carrying the soul up into the heavenly dimensions. This image is important because it frees us from the demonization of erotic selves by the Western Church and the terrible sense of guilt that has played such a large part in creating the psychotic sexuality that plagues so much of the world.

John Maxwell Taylor has been practicing Taoist and Tantric sexual methods for the transformation of consciousness for more than twenty-five years. In the laboratory of his own personal experience he has been able to create a marriage between Psyche and Eros that Carl Jung would recognize as a result of an alchemical inner process. When I first met John he was touring internationally with his award-winning twenty-character, one-man play
