Question on masturbation?

[Jon_88]

Seriusly dubt it as it is a biologic neccessety to keep test the equipment. If you dont do it , the body is gonna do it for you in sleep =P (assuming no sex aswell).
But dont take my word for it , Mr.Kangs post on the front page has a answer to a similar question from Robert Bruce .

quote:Sex will not disempower you unless you believe it will. Sex is actually very
balancing, which will help you achiever higher altered states. Celibacy is
not a good idea unless the desire to be celibate comes from within. A person
may 'believe' they have to be celibate, but unless this urge comes from
within and is truly what that person wants, then it will unbalance them
through frustration.

The sex chakra can become involved in energy work, but this is not a
desirable thing as its way too distracting. //Its best to work around this
center.

Note the post is regarding kundalini but i reckon this first question hold true for normal energy work as well.

Hey, it could be worse

I can't resist giving my opinion---[}:)]

I don't have any real hangups about sex, masturbation or orgasms, but I do perceive the issue as one of energy and economy and accountability.

I believe that the energy released during an orgasm is the same energy we use all day every day to get work done--to create. It's the energy of creation. And not just creating babies, but all the child-creations which we make with our hands and our minds.

From my standpoint, it appears that the days alotment of this energy is not exactly limitless. And so we have free will to use as we wish. But I also believe in the old Hermetic axiom, "As above, so below", and so using this metaphore, I as a father would get a little peeved if my son regularly took his allowance and just burned the money or threw it in the garbage instead of doing something really useful or creative with it. In other words I believe that there are probably some negative karmic consequences to wasting energy.

As to whether or not it is necessary to masturbate to reduce pressure in the lower chakras or because it will happen in ones sleep if not manually, well I've seen evidence to the contrary. It's not for everyone, I realize. But I spent about 5 years during my late twenties and early thirties single, and between marriages. And because I was on a spiritual path and wanted to use my energy wisely, I purposely raised the energy which would otherwise pool and collect in the lower (sex) chakra and build up pressure, into my crown and third eye chakras. I did this every day during meditation.

During this time, I had more energy, spiritual insights and intellectual advancement than at any other time in my life. I was completely celibate and practically never emitted during sleep; maybe a couple of times per year. And the funny thing is that I didn't even think about sex either. I was just kind of reaching up for God all day. But I got a lot of work done too.

Like I said, this is not for everyone. And I'm happily married again now (and not celibate...heh) so I'm not even doing this myself right now. But I do feel that the popular belief that adults *REQUIRE* either sex or masturbation is simply not true.

There is no reason why orgasm should equal release of energy. If one knows how they can have orgasms that give them more energy which can be used for your health and daily life. I will not go into details as I have talked about this extensively in the past, unless anyone has specific questions. If interested just do a search with me as the author and the key words something like sex. That should net you something.

Here is the a good source to tell you how. I suggest reading this boydster, or the one for couples. It is actually similar to what you were doing, only it draws the creative sexual energy up and you store it instead of expelling it. There is no reason why sex (or masterbation) cannot be spiritual.

Is masturbation a bad inversion of energy?
