The vagina and penis: extensions of our souls, expressed in flesh

The vagina and the penis are immensely powerfully parts of the human body. They are nothing less than outward physical extensions of our souls!

The vagina in a quite literal sense is a God-given physical entrance to a woman’s soul and has rightly been called ‘the grand entrance hall to the ballroom of the soul’. More than that, when a woman truly trusts and loves a man and without reserve gives herself passionately in the sexual act to her lover, her physical vagina becomes an actual channel through which the power and energy of her soul pours out and in a very real sense floods and permeates the inner being of her beloved.

Likewise the penis is, in a quite literal sense, the physical outlet and intake of the man’s soul. When a man with true commitment, integrity and real love gives himself to his beloved in passionate sexual intercourse, his penis is in a very real way his soul expressed in flesh. It is his soul sliding deeply into the soul of his beloved. Soul in soul – and the two shall become one! At the point of orgasm when the sperm is propelled forth, the man’s body (especially his penis) and his soul merge into an amazing and mystical oneness, easier to experience than to explain, in which there is a pouring out of his soul power into the depths of his beloved.

In turn he receives into his own centre the outpouring of the woman’s soul love and her welcome to him to enter her soul. No wonder we call both male and female orgasm ‘coming’! No wonder loving sexual intercourse is so healing, and brings such an amazing and virtually indescribable sense of closeness and oneness between a couple.

On the other hand, selfish sex that is only out to use the other person as a body to get whatever an individual can grab by way of physical pleasure is a thing that almost always leaves both people feeling grubby, and the girl in particular used and confused.

The more deeply we commit ourselves to understand and define sex in terms of its true God-designed power and purposes, the more likely we are to live our lives growing in the healing and rich joy that a loving committed sexual relationship will bring a couple. And in turn this will help to empower and improve all the other vital non-sexual areas of our relationship. This then is ‘sacred sex’.
