ah, i recall some girls in college who'd skip class so they could watch their soap opera. sitting in for a few minutes every now and then to smoke a joint, i realized that the show presented the scenario exactly as you've layed it out, only guised with good looking, glamorous, wealthy adults, ad nauseum - hell, has been running for 3 decades! i thought these girls were mostly self-respecting good people with bad taste, but didn't realize how much they identified with the show until living near them again several years later and finding out that one had nearly had killed her and the boy she broke up with when he refused to take her home by jerking the steering wheel while they were on the highway causing his car to flip over several times. the other had performed acts of self-affliction with a knife when upset over a relationship.

not everyone, however, is co-dependent. i think a person who has came to peace with his/herself and knows the type of love for humanity that arises from what i'd too consider Self-Knowledge, should experiment sexually and sample around with others who know the same, receptive to the possibility of finding one monogamous partner that each would be grateful and honored to share a life with one another.

If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care.

It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence.

I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too.  If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

To respond to both wjames and Icelander: I describe my experience as "communion" because it evoked in me not fear or awe, but a sense of true spiritual connection with peers. The reading that I had done about Tantra portrayed the "sacred couple" as being parental figures, above us, but my experience of them was closer to that of siblings. I felt truly welcomed as family, and without condescension or "generational" distance. As to why I believe they are beings, I simply cannot refer to them in any other way. I sensed energy and consciousness that was not mine. The communication was not in words, but in transformative energetic pulses. This is challenging to describe...if you can imagine comfortably warm rays, similar to June sunshine, which alter your thoughts and emotions. That is the mode of communication I found myself receiving.
To clarify my experience to all those who have posted in response: I am female, my Tantra practice is primarily solo, and I had considered myself an agnostic prior to these contacts.

Amazing! I would have no way to evaluate this due to any experience of my own. You do sound fairly sane. :grin:  I know one person that practices Tantra, very well. She is, in my experience one of the two  most grounded and aware people I have ever met. I have been to a cuddle party with some others who practiced Tantra and they were very open and loving, but that was unfortunately my only experience with them.  :thumbup:

Veritas: if you'd like a Multi-disciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) Journal titled _Psychedelics, Spirituality, and Sexuality_, just PM me and send me a few $ for shipping and handling and it's yours. Some hip psychedelic sculptor gave it to me after he finished reading it several years ago, I read it the following day, and it's been burried in my book vault only to resurface upon' some hardcore spring cleaning. Rather than chuck things like most college kids (dumpster diving is a columbus, ohio pastime) i always make an effort to think if anyone out there would appreciate what i'm ousting. from your post it might just be up your alley.

Namaste, CJ
