Hi I am interested in semen retention in order to stop wasting a lot of my energy through former excessive masturbation and obsession. I understand that the energy can get very intense when we practice semen retention as it builds up very strongly. Does anyone have any experience with how to channel and circulate this energy more effectively during semen retention so we can use it to fuel our life path and purpose? What methods do you suggest and was it beneficial for you? If so, in what way? Thanks Sunil.
I think obsessing about channelizing this energy itself leads to several challenges. Instead if you just keep yourself engaged all the time in daily activities, it happens naturally
Kundiline Yoga is all about this.. so is tantra yoga. You can lean some breathing and stretching exercisez that rapidly transmute the energy up to your higher self.. It is the true meaning of inner alchamie.. turning lead into gold.
I couldn't agree more with this. I also had a period of obsessing about "transmuting sexual energy", and at the end of that road I found the answer mentioned above. That unless I would like to pursue a spiritual path and dedicate myself to it, which I don't, the best way is to just do healthy daily activities that works for most.
Hi Sunil, I wanted to reply to your post because your question was something that I had wondered about for a number of years, and only recently found the answer to. I have done tantra for a number of years, but found the practices that I learnt for moving energy inadequate for how I wanted to cultivate my sexual energy. This is mainly because many of the practices encourage a process of ‘moving’ the energy from A to B, rather than ‘allowing’ it to go where it wants to go based on your own body’s intelligence. I have tried a number of practices, but found one in particular that works really well. I will detail this below. It is a quite effective practice that anyone can do. The practice was not initially designed to move sexual energy throughout the body, but I have discovered that it works perfectly for that. The reason that you feel the energy is very intense is because when you don’t allow the energy to circulate, it tends to build up in the first chakra. This is because you are not allowing it to move within the body, so the body tries to release it through ejaculation. THE SEXUAL ENERGY CIRCULATION EXERCISE 1. Find a quiet place where you can lay down for say 30 mins or so. 2. Start noticing how your body feels. 3. Verbally describe the specific feelings in your body in the present moment (i.e. I am feeling tension in my solar plexus, my left leg is feeling warm, I feel pressure in my head, I feel strong energy in my sex centre etc etc). The feelings can be anywhere in your body, so focus on your whole body rather than just your sex center. 4. Really allow each feeling as it comes up. Embrace it fully even if it is uncomfortable. 5. Notice that when you fully become aware of, accept an embrace each feeling, that it changes and moves. You might even feel energy actually moving from one part of your body to the other. 6. As this happens new feelings will then arise, so just repeat steps 3 and 5 until you want to stop the exercise. It can take a while to get used to this exercise depending on whether you do meditation regularly or not. When you get the hang of it, porn or whatever sexual habit starts to gradually become a non-issue because you are able to process you sexual feelings, so the energy moves through your body rather than building up in the sex center and needing to be released. Hope this helps, Andy
Hello, I have personally found a good excercise workout transmutes/burns a lot of that sexual energy which has built up, amazing.
