Is porn destructive for spiritual growth?
I've been wondering this for a while, and I just wanted to hear peoples points of view.

NO I don't think so. but don't deplete your sexual energy too much as it serves as a food for your higher chakras. Too much sex and sexual suppression is both a hindrance to spiritual evolution. Moderation is the key

The_One

 Thanks. That makes me feel a bit better. So sexual suppression is also bad for you?

mon9999

YES sexual suppression causes blockage in the navel and root chakra. while too much sex will weaken them too. Snap out from religious conditioning that sex is dirty unless you are married, sexual guilts causes blockage too

I'm a Christian and I actually agree with this.
There's no direct verse in the Bible that says premarital sex is a sin.

If you read the OT there's countless stories of men that had concubines in addition to their wives (King Solomon for one).
And yet there was no direct condemnation from God or anyone else.  Many Christians try to explain this away but they mostly fail with weak arguments like "those were different times back then".  Thats hogwash, God does not change, whats a sin today ought to be a sin thousands of years ago

Bring into play the divine within you, so on the stage of life you can fulfill your high destined role.

if every energy center is a mind
and every mind is a universe

then you can use the energy on site in the right place
or rob your people to feed the solar plexus and so on you could drain 6 universes of all there wealth just to feed the crown
and one day when your head glows like a 3 pence light bulb you could be safe in the knowledge that you sacked your own lands

you know what they say if you don't use it you loose it

:NoY:

QuoteThere's no direct verse in the Bible that says premarital sex is a sin.
Although there is one saying a woman should be killed if she's not a virgin at marriage

Anyway I shouldn't have to debunk religious nuttery, but arousal is my best means of telepathy. Being aroused while tired puts your mind in a very alert - yet very relaxed - state. They say it's common for guys to wake up from AP with an erection.

this is my view:-

Firstly as soon as iget a girlfriend my projections treble and i poject a lot more.
ok mabye you could just call it satisfaction

but i feel as if i project more because i get more sex.

i rember monroe sayin that sexual desire takes on an ego of its own once you leave the body and this causes problems and makes projections less succeful.

i feel as if "good sex" and "bad sex" should be considered.

firstly having sex with some one you love

having sex not because your horny but because you care for the person you having it with and thus sex becomes alot more than sexual satisfaction instead it feels more like a union or joining of two lovers even for that split second

i would call this good sex and i dont think there can be an excess amount of good sex only a lack of it

on the other hand bad sex is

sex with some one you dont love or with someone who does nt really want sex with you for love but just for money or sexual desire.

bad sex includes cheating i think it could also be classed as having a two way heart what i mean is the feling of where you feel stuck in the middle between loving one person and loving another.

of this i feel every stray thought is excessive

wanking is a class of its own

i think masterbation is good and bad for example i think unlike sex masterbation draains away your energy but if you dont masterbate you can feel the energy accumalte in the base charka and cause problems in projecting.

as long as the fantasy you use to get of on is good then so be it but if its about underage sex or about another woman other than the woman your with then this becomes bad

i dont think the negative things of sexual desire inhibit projections longterm but i think they can leave a mark that causes problems for a long short time peroiod lol

I use sex magick all the time.  Of course it's not the only way I practice ritual, it's good to be balanced.  But 'the act', be it alone or with a partner or even many, generates a massive energy surge (which we feel physically as an orgasm).  When your attention is focused on a specific object or ritual during that moment the energy in channeled in that direction.  Very powerful magick indeed.

It ought to be said that while sex itself is not "bad", the intent involved should be considered.  Now, I'm not saying any intent is necessarily bad, just consider a spiritual practice like tantra vs. debbie does dallas.  Can you see the difference?
be awesome.

I heard that is only true if you masturbate directly with your hands.  So find something or preferably someone to rub up against instead... :lol:

Honestly though, take a look at the original question - is PORN destructive.  Personally, having seen porn for decades now, I'd say that much of today's porn has bad intent.  I won't go into the details, but if you've watched any, you'll know what I mean.  Back in the day, a lot of porn was just people having sex in a natural manner, but now violence and fetishism seems to predominate - not very sexy IMO, just about control and power issues in the end.  Truth is, a great deal of porn is not about sex.

So....sex is fine in moderation, but porn?  Hmm...

Only if you can visualize her perfectly and not get too excited such that you wake up  :roll:

Porn can be destructive, just as alcohol or food or television or computer games can. A great deal depends on the kind of porn, what you're thinking about when you look at it, how much energy you're pouring into it, and so forth. It's only a problem if it's a problem, basically.

Anything can be destructive...
It's how you use it that determines it's destructiveness.

Google 'Tantric Sex'
It says sexual energy can be transformed to healing energy and stored in the chakras..
Interesting.. But the catch is 'sperm retention' and the bonus is 'multiple orgasams'!!

 Never heard of Tantric sex, new one on me. Haven't been in a relationship for 6 years.
  Due to parents I suppose, I've always seen sex as a bad thing. Could never shrug it off, even now I'm an adult. Was concerned it would hinder my spiritual growth.

 O, and that hairy palms thing, hilarious :lol:

Pray at night that you can find a partner that you can grow spiritually with.
Or conjure up some magical love spell and sprinkle the cutest girl you see with it.

Here is a great video regarding the subject of AP and sexual energy - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-w70QjEs7QQ . I agree with him completely. Basically use your sexual energy for the sake of love, not solely to get your rocks off.

QuoteIt's only a problem if it's a problem, basically.

Most obvious statement of the day  :wink: If it helps you relax and does not interfere with your mental processes or your focus, then it might actually help. I don't defend it though really because I for one (even though Im a guy) don't watch porn... I always have preferred the real thing. There comes a time though when you realize it (sex) is not the most important thing in the world, and at the same time you do not want to become addicted because believe me you can. Any addiction really does screw with your focus, and your ability to project. For instance I'm a smoker, (the longest I have quit for is about half a year) and I have to tailor my attempts around my habit. For instance before I lay down to project I have to smoke before I do so, if I dont I can not even focus on the task at hand until I do. On top of that addictions will interfere with your sleep cycle, your body when craving that addiction will wake you up out of a dead sleep so you can fulfill that addiction. Just something to think about.

The question answers itself  :roll:. All the rest is just pretence and self justification.
