A beautifull work for a difficult task

I don't want to reiterate what was mentioned by another reviewer entitled 'Reveals the higher meaning of sexual energy'; an excellent review. As stated by Elisabeth Haich, there will be many who cannot handle this information. This is the stone that the builders rejected. Personally, it has taken me many years to come to a greater acceptance regarding giving up the momentary pleasures of orgasm for the many higher and superior benefits as detailed in this book. As you look at esotericism, occultism, alchemy and religion etc, the pieces start to come together and you discover that there is a great truth to what Elisabeth Haich is saying. There is truly a whole science when it comes to this topic, inclusive of mantra, meditation, prayer, and technique etc. Unfortunately, with so many many books trying to cash in on the tantra dollar, you have to tread through a lot of garbage, inclusive of much misunderstanding, distortion and greedy profiteering to finally get to the real truth. This book on the other hand, is for the most part, simply magic; magic because it explains the reasons why one should hold onto and transform one's sexual energy. It explains it so well that the penny's start to drop and you have the strength to succeed. This book is the foundation in my opinion, the starting point. The message is strong and simple in this book, as are the practical exercises. Elisabeth gives a very nice and effective meditation exercise for raising the sexual energy. She also gives us 3 yoga postures, inclusive of diagrams to help as well. Unfortunately I would prefer to give this book 4.5 stars, but I don't want to devalue its importance and standing. This book is not exhaustive when it comes to Sexual alchemy. I believe that it falls short in saying that sexual alchemy is superior without a partner. I do like this in a way though, as it gives balance and hope to those who are as yet, unable to find an alchemical partner. Still solo alchemy is far superior to no alchemy at all. I believe that it also facilitates finding a person of the opposite sex who also resonates at this same octave. Solo alchemical practice is also endorsed in the book `Sacred Sexuality-Ancient Egyptian Tantric Yoga by Muata Ashby'. Having said this, I would still also recommend this book. On a higher and more complete note though, I would recommend the following books for those who are on the path of seeking lasting happiness and liberation: The mystery of the Golden Blossom Samael Aun Weor ISBN 0-9742755-2-2 Google pdf download available Treatise of Sexual Alchemy Samael Aun Weor Google pdf download available Above this recommendation would be to find a school in the direct lineage of Sameal Aun Weor, inclusive of having a second chamber.

Reveals the higher meaning of sexual energy

I first read this book some years ago, but at the time was not ready for its profound wisdom.Having recently re-read it, I have grasped its message, and gained an understanding of the uses and abuses of sex energy.I believe Haich has got to the core of what human sexuality is all about. Her focus is on the use of sexual energy for spiritual growth.She explains how sex energy can be transformed into spiritual energy.She is not against sex, but shows how it can be used in a positive manner.She is not in favour of promiscuous sex because it has no love. She says people need love, but often they mistake sex for love, or think they can get love through sex.Sex is not a problemin itself, but it becomes a problem when there is no love.This message is very needful today.Haich is against sex renunciation because sex energy is our life force.To renounce it is to renounce our life.She points out that only a few can follow the higher path and transform their sex energy into spiritual energy.In such a case sex energy is not lost, but brings the person closer to God.Haich explains that the dragon in alchemy represents the sex energy.Depictions of fiery dragons in alchemy show the sex energy being transformed into spiritual energy.Sex is not lost, but used for a great purpose.The alchemist him or herself becomes an hermetically sealed vessel, not wasting the precious sex energy, but transforming it into higher energy.This book is not for all, but those who are ready for it can gain deep insights.
