Erotic Energy & Its Circulation in an Amorous Community


Gaia, Eros, & the Sacred:
Learning the Arts of Loving with Serena Anderlini-D'Onofrio
Class # 2
Sacred Erotic Energy and its Circulation in an Amorous Community
What is sacred erotic energy? 
How can we perceive it, absorb it, channel it? 
What makes us part of an amorous community?  
How can we contribute to its joy, health, and well being, and why is this good for us?
Eros was the god of love in ancient Greece and is often perceived as a spiritual force that pervades the material, that blows health and vitality in it, similarly to the prana, ki, and universal energy of Eastern traditions.  Erotic energy is sacred because it is part of a sacred tradition and because it denotes life, which is sacred in most belief systems.  Eros is a vital force that manifests in infinite ways and takes the form of the energy field where its presence is felt.  The ability to register this presence, to absorb and channel its energy that each of us has corresponds to the wealth we bring to our amorous and erotic communities.  Eros is what keeps Gaia alive.  The more we contribute, the more we receive.
Exercises for this class include safely giving and receiving sacred erotic energy in small groups and sharing about the experience and one’s interpretations of it.
