Harmony and eroticism
The movement of Tao is to go back;
The use of Tao is to accept.
All things come from the Tao. The Tao comes from nothing.
Sexual energy is the energy of creation. It is the purest form of energy that humans possess and the only one that is capable of creating life. In any case, there are other possibilities. When procreation is not the goal, sexual energy is able to transform and open channels within the body to caches of energy that, for some reason, remain dormant inside us and prevent energy from flowing throughout the whole organism. Finding the balance between mind and body is one of the core ways of feeling good with ourselves and with our surroundings.
According to the Tao , the earth and the heavens sustain a permanent sexual union, which maintains balance. Because of this, it is essential that man and woman enter into communion with the cosmos and channel their energy to obtain health and pleasure.
The Taoist philosophy means freedom
According to Taoism, the mind and body must be in harmony. Sexuality and spirituality are inseparable. Taoism does not prohibit any form of sexual activity; on the contrary, it seeks to find lost harmony through the act of love. Sexual energy empowers emotions and shapes them until they become a rejuvenating and healing energy that flows through the entire body. The Tao encourages a path toward becoming conscious of ones own light and developing enough awareness to allow the consciousness to expand.
This book, far from focusing just on the benefits that Taoism can have for men as other works do, also includes the traditions of the White Tigresses, women who practiced a number of disciplines that incorporated Taoist and tantric teachings.
Prolonged intimate relations allow lovers to rise up to the highest echelons of human perfection. Integrating sexuality into a spiritual context leads to the union of individuals becoming a path toward cosmic illumination. Chinese erotic massage seeks for the sexual act to rise above the physical level and become a deep spiritual experience in which the body and mind become one. As sexual energy spreads throughout the organism, both at the moment of massage and the act of sex, it transforms into a different form of energy that can be harnessed for self-benefit.
In the first chapter, the reader will find a series of exercises that will teach the importance of breathing, good posture, and the power of the inner smile. This Taoist practice allows one to send energy to vital organs and helps change the inner state of the individual. It also contains relaxation exercises that will create optimal conditions at the time of starting the massage.
The second and third chapters contain exercises for increasing sexual vigor, learning how to become a multi orgasmic man or woman, and getting to know the male and female bodies. Upon doing so, you may stimulate the erogenous zones and reach the highest level of sexual pleasure. We often hear of the famous G-spot and the pleasure muscle, which are essential for taking control of ejaculation, as well as increasing pleasure and achieving communion with the body itself. An important section of this book concerns postures with curative properties, which is a knowledge that is essential for using sexuality for therapeutic purposes, as well as learning what the most appropriate positions are for different couples and their individual needs.
Erotic massage prepares the body for the act of sex and stimulates the flow of energy. This is the topic of the fourth chapter. Within it, we will find the knowledge of the ancient Taoist masters, and the readers will be able to avail themselves of the thousand-year-old secrets of Chinese culture. The fifth chapter describes acupressure techniques, a form of Chinese medicine that, through the application of pressure with the fingers, allows the regulation of unbalanced energies that tend to cause illnesses. It is possible that, at first, locating these points may be slow and require going back often to the manual. However, with practice the process will become simple and rewarding.
The sixth chapter contains a list of Chinese aphrodisiac recipes, famous for their use of herbs, spices, and roots that lend flavor to the dishes. For example, ginseng is a root known around the world for its ability to increase sexual vigor and because its influence allows for greater longevity.
The raw material of the Tao is energy, a force that we all carry within ourselves. For this reason, it is worth remembering that the Taoist lessons are not difficult to learn. You need only prepare your mind and body so that the vital energy may flow throughout and manifest itself in the form of health and sexual vigor.
We also advise going over the concepts of masculinity and femininity (Appendix 1) that will allow for a better understanding of some Taoist points of view regarding energy.
And above all, we recommend lots and lots of practice.
The Taoist philosophy
The movement of the Tao is to return.
The effect of the Tao is flexibility.
All things in the universe are born from being.
Being is born from non being.
The Tao
Taoism is one of the oldest religions of China. It is based on the Tao , or absolute, that is the force or primordial reason for the universe and the cause of everythings existence. Tao teaches us to disregard all things, value life itself, and break the ties that bind us to the material world and the rest of mankind that disrupt the path to a pure life in communion with nature.
The concept of Taoism as a philosophy is attributed to Lao Tse, who is said to have been born in the year 571 B.C. His doctrine is based on the idea that Tao is the life force of everything and the energy of both animate and inanimate objects . Lao Tse established the path as a way to achieve an inner state of emptiness and repose and to avoid falling for the seductions of external things. He created a flexible and dynamic religion that adapts to social change throughout time.
