Not relationships, because that would arise out of seperation.  But one large Trans-personal Relationship amongst and within us all.  That should create a better trust space within which to play.  Read Andrew Cohen's blurb about the Birthday of Evolutionary Enlightenment. ...(more)

  Whitewave : Into the Shadow...

Wilhelm Reich and Sex Economy

Whitewave said Nov 19, 2007, 9:08 AM:

 

Has anyone ever heard of this?  I just stumbled upon it last night and saw myself in the mirror.

Sex Economy

Especially when it came to this portion: Orgastic Potency,
this part: Results of Vegetotherapy (Vegetotherapy works on the Autonomic nervous system) [Consequences for Human Civilization, Self-regulation Fundamental Feature, Natural Children],
this part: Connecting Vegetative Sensations and Religion [Religious Conversion]
and this part: Implications for Politics and Social Environment

“The sex economic position dictates that the principal objectives for all politics must be to shape society and living conditions such that the freely spontaneous and vegetative life can unfold as freely and as strongly as possible; because this is the best possible housekeeping of the sexual energy (which sex economy identifies as the life energy). In order to achieve this objective every human being must be free to administer its own body and be able to freely follow and fulfill their own wishes, sexual and other, as long as in doing this it doesn't violate corresponding wishes of others. Also, society must deliver the external conditions which allow for this to occur. Furthermore, society must produce a rearing process that respects all the natural desires of the children and give them the opportunity to develop freely the way their internal will wishes, in natural interplay with other equally free children and adults. And finally the working process must be shaped such that each person fully, or at least for the main part, are allowed to do the work they like and in cooperation with the ones they enjoy being with, so that work no longer shuts down or kills the free joy of life, but on the contrary becomes itself an expression of it.”

What does it all mean?  Is this why I abhor the Neuro Linguistic Programing and Speed Seduction ideas so much?  Because they take away my full conscious ability to choose?  For someone who is in the “neurotic” class, this could be considered a good thing, in a way, because they need outside help in overcoming their resistance.  But for someone who does not have resistance, this is a problem.  How do we solve this dilemma?  How do we create a helpful social environment for everyone?

this could be a long road.  the sexual shadow (repression and denial) that so many parents (consciously and/or unconsciously) righteously give their children is a really big. 

i do believe that there is an acceleration going on in which people, in general, are getting more comfortable with their sensually-driven sexuality, as opposed to the neurosis-driven sexuality. 

there might be a critical mass that can be reached, like a 100th monkey.
