Many people wonder where sacred sex comes from.

Is it the creation of some human mind, a veneration of our innate sexual essence? Was it evolved by enlightened sages in our distant past, handed down through the ages, and only today re-discovered? Or was it even Divine Revelation -- a gift to humanity direct from our Creator, true for all people at all times?

The whole truth is none of these, though there is some truth in all of them.

Sacred sex is embedded in the very essence of life, and also in its entire manifest nature.

This is not some vague, mystical statement with no concrete meaning, which can't be proven or disproved. It is the very clear truth that arises out of understanding what life is and how it came to be.

Creation is born of an unmanifest plane of existence. Modern science (mainly physics) has theorized this underlying 'Unified Field', as it is commonly called, and continually seeks to learn more about how the entire material world arises out of this nothingness.

Science knows & accepts that matter arises out of non-material fields. Energy fluctuates and quantizes into matter. What it doesn't understand fully is how.

For this, we must turn from modern science to one that's been around literally since the beginning of time -- the science of sacred sex.

When you think about it, it should be no surprise that sex explains how creation comes out of nothing. Babies grow out of almost nothing every day -- they are born of the union of male & female seed. The conception of creation is much the same, except that it's born of true nothingness. And that nothingness is 'male' & 'female'.

The beauty of sacred sex science is not just that it explains how creation comes to be, but that it shows you through personal experience in sacred sex. You don't need a fancy laboratory, experimental procedure, or doctorate degree -- your body is your lab, sacred sex is your method, and you experience the test results. Then, to prove they're real, the universe verifies them.

How does all this happen? Sacred Union reveals it.

Sacred Union is the climax of sacred sex. It is the deepest, purest level of sacred sex orgasm.

So let's start by understanding orgasm, and in particular, sacred sex orgasm.

Orgasm is a release. It is a physical, mental, emotional - and many would say spiritual - release. It is this total release on all levels that brings ecstasy. In orgasm, you leave behind all worldly thoughts & attachments, problems & limitations, and even your sense of individuality and time. For one fleeting moment, you simply are. Orgasm is a timeless state of ecstatic being.

Unfortunately in conventional orgasm, it's over so fast that you can't even fully feel what it is. Just when you gain a sense of how truly unique it is as an experience, it's over.

Sacred orgasm differs distinctly from common orgasm. Physically speaking, sacred orgasm is the experience of orgasm without loss of sexual energy. Retaining your sexual energy during orgasm lets you build your energy up to climax again & again. You can also stay orgasmic for extended periods. Repeated and extended orgasm makes you familiar with the fine details of that experience. And this is how you come to learn the sexual origin of creation.

In sacred orgasm, that fleeting moment of orgasmic ecstasy becomes clear and enduring. You get familiar with it. You grow so intimate with it that you recognize it as your true inner nature, your higher Self. You are Universal Being, not limited by individuality -- you are consciously one with the unified field of all creation. You identify so fully with that ecstatic Being that you realize the truth -- I am that.

This Unity within is Sacred Union...well, half of it.

Inner 'Being' is your male essence, or seed. This supreme male essence is God within you, or if you don't like that term, then simply call it pure male essence. In Sacred Union, you experience this God-essence whether you're male or female.

It would be easy to stop here and call it the end of the story. After all, you've not only discovered that universal Being which underlies creation, you've become it! But that doesn't explain how creation is born, or the sacred origin of sex.

For that, you must find your female essence. And you needn't look anywhere because it's in the self-same experience of Sacred Union. Your inner essence, and the essence of all life & creation, is dual-natured -- male & female together in union. To understand this, and to see how creation is born of that sexual union, let's look deeper at your experience.

'Being' is Unity. It is unchanging, unlimited, undivided wholeness. Yet at the same time, you experience it. Experience is different. It is ever-changing and multi-form. You experience many different things in many different ways. There is also a distinction between you and the things you experience. Unlike Being, which is unity, experience is divided in parts.

But there is more to experience than that. Though you're separate from what you experience, there's a connection too -- you're linked to that object through your experience of it. You and the object come together in your experience.

This is the magic of experience, that it is divided in parts, yet unified too. And nowhere is this magic more clear than in Sacred Union. In Sacred Union you experience unity. Your universal Self experiences Itself. Unity and diversity merge together in one magical experience.

This magical diversity that experiences Unity is your pure feminine essence.

And now it should be easy to see why we call it Sacred Union. Your experience of your inner Self is a union of your male and female essence. Diversity experiences Unity; male and female together as one. It is a pure sexual experience.

Sacred Union also reveals the mechanics of creation. For in your own experience you see how everything comes out of nothing. Within Unity is the seed of diversity. Universal Being experiences Itself, and in so doing, divides Itself. The parts then interact in multiform ways, reproducing and manifesting themselves. Thus, from the primeval sexual union of male and female essence, creation is born.

That's why not only you, but all of creation as well, are sexual to your very core. It's also why sex has been sacred literally since the dawn of creation -- creation itself is a sexual act.

The male & female in you are forever in union. You cannot separate them. They are like two sides of a coin -- two aspects of one reality. Unity & diversity - male & female seed - are eternally within you, waiting to be realized in Sacred Union. They also eternally underlie creation, and from their union & interaction - their sacred sex - the whole manifest universe is born.

Perhaps that's why we call it 'uni-verse' -- it is a unity of diversity, male and female essence together.

You see all this within yourself - in your crystal clear Self-experience - during Sacred Union.

And you experience the mystery of life that eludes even the great scientists of today: you see how creation is born out of nothingness -- sexually.

Modern science theorizes about the Unified Field. Scientists know that diversity comes out of it. But it's sacred sex science that explains how -- from male & female essence. More important - and much more fun - sacred sex science lets you experience this sexual reality of life in the ecstasy of your own Sacred Union. Thus it is a complete science, having both theory and practice.

For more discussion, visit the Sacred Union Forum. A Glossary definition is also available. Anyone can enjoy Sacred Union by practicing sacred sex. It is both easy and sexually satisfying to learn. For step by step lessons, visit the Sacred Sex Lesson Forum.

Contemporary thinkers may scoff at sacred sex science, claiming that it's subjective, as opposed to objective modern science. They'll argue that it's all in the mind, with no objective proof. But sacred sex science is complete.

Sacred sex posits a relationship between you and the objects you experience, that there is unity amidst the diversity of the objective world. If that is true, there should be objective verification. And indeed there is. To learn about it, visit the Sexual Enlightenment Forum.

Modern science itself has touched on this relationship in a law called the 'Observer Effect'. You can read about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observer_effect

Sacred sex science is provable because this fundamental link between subject and object, which you experience in Sacred Union, is present at every level of creation. When you experience that unity directly at the source of creation, it produces dramatic and amazing experiences in everyday life. It also produces measurable changes in the way your brain functions. For more on this, see the Science of Sacred Sex.

It's not just the inner essence of life that is sexual; male & female essence permeates every grain of creation. Their inseparable union exists on every level of life, from common everyday to the source of creation itself. We are sexual beings through & through, and our universe is sexual to the core. The very act of creation is sexual, and that is why sex always has been, and always will be, forever sacred.

Sacred sex is embedded in the very essence of life, and also in its entire manifest nature. The offspring are like the parents -- we, the men and women of the world, are like the pure male & female essence of which we are born.

So the next time you're having sacred sex, don't think you're doing something new. You're simply repeating what's been happening throughout creation since the beginning of time. You're also enjoying sex as it was meant to be.

After all, sex didn't just become sacred -- it was born that way.
