All day purification
This event is part of October 2024 Silent immersion retreat
Show event seriesEmotion, and especially sexual desire, is not to be suppressed. It should be allowed to spontaneously purify, just like everything else.

People are in such a twist about sex, they have become totally lost.Â

I see how so many of you have become enmeshed in false identities which under- and overplay the importance of sex. Drukpa Kunley (འབྲུག་པ་ཀུན་ལེགས་), the famous Tibetan naljorpa (yogi), made it his business to sleep with as many women as he could when he came to Bhutan in order to release the people from their ignorance. He pinned a major demonness under Chimi Lhakhang and today, couples travel from all over the world in order to receive a blessing from his bow and arrow and a massive bone phallus interred in the temple since the 16th century. Many many of them successfully conceive. On the cold wooden floor:Â

Remember! You will conform with and exceed every tradition and text, once sex no longer controls you and your life force can truly fly free!
