Sex Is A Borrowed Knowledge

When two lovers are making love, and if they are both no-selves, nothingness, then orgasm happens. Then their body energy, their whole being, loses all identity; they are no more themselves – they have fallen into the abyss. But this can happen only for a moment: again they regain, again they start clinging. That’s why people become afraid in love also.

In deep love people are afraid of becoming mad, or going to die – of what will happen. The abyss opens its mouth, the whole existence yawns, and you are suddenly there and you can fall into it.

One becomes scared of love, then people remain satisfied with sex and they call their sex ”love.”

Love is not sex. Sex can happen in love, it can be a part, integral part to it, but sex itself is not love – it is a substitute. You are trying to avoid love through sex. You are giving yourself a feeling that you are in love, and you are not moving into love. Sex is just like borrowed knowledge: giving a feeling of knowing without knowing; giving a feeling of love and loving without loving. Read Avoid Borrowed Knowledge.

In love you are not, the other is also not: then only, suddenly, the two disappear. The same happens in Mahamudra.

Mahamudra is a total orgasm with the whole existence.

That’s why in Tantra – deep intercourse, orgasmic intercourse, between lovers is also called Mahamudra, and two lovers in a deep orgasmic state are pictured in tantric temples in India, in tantric books. That has become a symbol of the final orgasm.
