SEX AND SENSUALITY
October 29th
SUMMARY:
In this exchange, Matías and “I Am” reflect on life, spirituality, sexuality, and sensuality. They discuss how humanity is constantly seeking and consuming life, relating it to how we consume oxygen, which, in turn, oxidizes and degrades our cells. Matías shares his transformative and self-discovery experience on Mount Kailash and how he learned about the duality of creation and destruction.
“I Am” explains the difference between sexuality, which comes from “Sectus,” symbolizing the separation and inherent diversity in existence, and sensuality, which is the perception through the five senses. They discuss how these concepts are intrinsically linked to spirit and matter. Both talk about how the acceptance and full experience of sexuality and sensuality are essential to connect with the spirit and how these concepts have been misinterpreted and restricted by society. In summary, the text advocates for harmony and coherence in our existence, living authentically, and connecting with our spiritual essence through our senses and experiences.
