Secrets of the Vulva

In the Vulva there are many secrets hidden; they can only be discovered with stillness and contemplation. Let thine sweet lips create the ecstasy.

Peace

I will share with you a secret. No hope can be found in a life devoid of peace. Now that you know, I will ask. To how many lives have you brought peace and to how many hearts hope? If you can but do, joy will be the reward. Bring a smile to a lonely heart and your name the dove will always cry.

He who desires passion

He who desires love and increase of passion, let him remember that silence is the first step toward unity, and touch is the key to intimacy.

Love

Love, like a sword, must always be kept clean and sharp, lest it be covered with dullness and rust.

The temple of love

Time has passed since the ancient temples of love have been erected. Today the world has erected other shrines made of stone. Love had been sold cheap to all bidders. I remind all that love cannot be bought, but exists in the hearts and minds of all that love. Make your room a shrine, let the smell of roses descend as you lie in the arms of ecstasy. Remind yourself that unless you give yourself in love there is no shrine.

The Rose of Life

Seven are the petals of love. Seven are the ways of the heart. Seven are the principles of passion. Seven are the methods of intimacy. Seven are the truths of ecstasy. Seven are the pains of rapture. One is the embrace of light. Who knows of them, knows the forty-nine petalled rose of Life, and the seven visions of God.

The Principles of Passion

Twice have I mentioned the ways of the heart, but only once will I mention the principles of passion. Spontaneity, for who calculates their passion extinguishes it. Individuality, for how can you arouse the passions of your lover if your own elude you. Heat, for passion served cold is naught but the venom of spite and malice. Arousal, for passion without arousal is like the sun during its eclipse. Courage for passion isn't for the weak of heart or hesitant. Liberation, for no soul is trapped when passion is the horse of its chariot. Surrender, for only to the arms of your beloved will passion release you. These are its principles; unleash it. For without passion, your prayers are not answered.
