Love and sexuality - from the roots to the fruits

06/03/2015

Love may be compared to a tree. In this tree, sexuality is represented by the roots, roots that are deeply buried in the human being: we cannot pull them up and we should not try to, because they are as indispensable to us as the roots are to a tree. The only way we should explore love is by seeking to go higher, further up into the trunk, the branches, the leaves, the flowers and the fruits. And the flowers and fruits of love are sacrifice.  The most spiritual form of love receives its power from the sexual force, but we need to learn how to cultivate it, water it and protect it from insects and storms. Anyone who tastes the fruits of this tree of love will savour immortality and eternal life.
