:: ::

In this Part 2 (you don't need to listen to part 1 first!) of God and Sex discussion, Mark and Rosalind talk about:

  • Why we need both strength and receptivity
  • How we develop receptivity via our asana
  • Why we must address the denial of the feminine and put a spotlight on sex as a topic rather than avoid it
  • How a Yoga practice is the context in which we become receptive in relationship with another
  • How sex and intimate relationships are a direct participation of Mother Nature's grand plan
  • But do you have to be in an intimate relationship to have a good spiritual life?
  • Is polarity the same as attraction or sexual "chemistry"?
  • How yoga helps us develop the discernment of the 3 L-s: who we Like, Love, and Lust
  • What asana does to actually release the drama out of your relationships
  • Beauty as an inherent feature of every person
  • Why you'll suffer if you seek God… or a boyfriend or girlfriend, for that matter
  • The importance of receptivity in the body in order for sexual energy to flow and not just come out as a stress release
  • Why the concept of “the two becoming one” is a degradation of Tantra
  • Actually, do we even need to talk about sex?
