Licking the Razor's Edge (2015)

TIP #04 – MAKE EYE-CONTACT
Sexual intercourse is by its very nature an incredibly intimate and deeply vulnerable act.
It is the closest we can ever hope to come to experiencing a physical Oneness with our
surroundings, and it is one of the most powerful ways that we can hope to truly Connect
with a fellow Human Being.
It has been said the eyes are windows to our Souls. Regardless of how you feel about this
particular statement, there is little doubt that the intimacy of any encounter is
dramatically enhanced through prolonged eye-contact. And seeing as how having the
courage to open-up to intimacy is a pre-requisite for experiencing deep-seated,
unconditional LOVE, eye-contact becomes a powerful method to help you & your
partner arrive at that state of Bliss-full union during any act of Lovemaking.
TIP #05 – COMMUNICATE
Eye-contact counts as communication, of course, and yet humans are verbal creatures. As
such, couples who speak openly to each other about their Loving intentions before they
have intercourse are far more likely to be able to maintain a Loving focus during their
sexual union (and thereby experience the Bliss that only comes to those who choose to
Make-Love). Of course, communicating Care-fully during the ensuing act of intercourse
is also recommended.
TIP #06 – CUDDLE, CUDDLE, CUDDLE
This one is pretty straightforward: if you are not ready & willing to hold your partner
close after having intercourse with him or her, then it is probably better that you do not
have sex at all. As I mentioned previously, both men and women have strong
physiological drives to bond emotionally with their partners after intercourse. They might
successfully dampen these feelings by repressing them or coating them over with alcohol
or drug use, and yet those feelings remain. And to deny their expression after sexual
union creates a deep wound in the psyche of both parties – a wound that adds greater and
greater distance between the self and all others over time.
Yes, there is the primitive, animalian drive to “survive &
procreate” in all humans. And yet, we are so much more
than mere “animals”! We also have desires that run much,
much deeper – the desire to Care for others;
… the desire to bring others Joy;
… the desire to intimately experience
the Oneness of real Love.
So do what you wish with whomever you wish –
… just be sure to cuddle up when you are done.
