Instead, the masculine divine is kept sheathed in false layers of hesitancy. Today's man has learned to let his lover talk on and on, even when he is bored witless, even when he would rather enter his lover's heart with the same boundary-annihilating penetration of consciousness, pervading the moment, open, full of love, and gone now. And now. Meanwhile, she waits to be felt by him through and through, she waits to be seen, really seen, and adored as the light and love she is.

'Take me,' she silently yearns, unfulfilled, unravished, aching inside to be claimed by a man of utter integrity. 'I want to take you,' he squeamishly desires, squelching his passionate depth beneath tons of false pursuits.

The next sexual step is a spiritual one. He recognizes who he is and offers himself as God's unchanging and all-pervading presence: 'I am consciousness, and you are mine, you love-wild bitch.'

She relaxes her body open, actively receiving his true claim, displaying her deepest heart as God's love-light, unafraid to cut off the head of any false wimpiness that enters the depths of her heart: 'I am light. Take me, if you dare.'

She is alive, as all-alive as anger, joy, sadness; bliss-opening as every form of love; dancing as every shine of light. He is feeling her deeply, feeling through her as deep as the moment goes, opening as her body and emotions, invited by her heart's radiant yearning to surrender, together opening as One, as God, as the He-She that is.

Or not. She can focus on her career. He can relax in Bali with his girlfriends. And then, sooner or later, she and he will die.

To die without coinciding with this moment's blissful openness -- at first in rare moments and, with practice, in all moments -- is to die uncomplete, unfinished. Like lousy sex, a residue of dissatisfaction lingers, which, strangely enough, makes you want to try again and again, until the trying itself is too meaninglessly painful and you relinquish your boundaries of safe striving. Finally, you exhaust the illusion of self-responsibility and are open to be lived as the heart's surrender. You open to be lived by God, to be lived open as love. And this is the basis for every moment of your life, including sex.

America has often been at the forefront of sexual exploration and political innovation. The next sexual step is a spiritual commitment to making love for the sake of God, which requires that He is willing to fully claim Her open and She is willing to fully shine Him open, as love, as One Heart appearing through two-bodied merger. This moment, as it is, right now is already ravishing -- or you are hiding behind boundaries of safety.

Either your consciousness is already fully offered as unrelenting presence, ravishing all forms open to God, or you are holding back your masculine gift. Either your body is already surrendered open, as an active invitation to be claimed by love's force -- breathing as the bliss of love, rippling with pleasure, undulating with pain, raging as anger's passion, showing your open heart as all love-light -- or you are hiding your feminine gift.
