I just posted another episode of The Get Life Right Podcast — Episode 03, available from iTunes. It's actually a reedit and rerecording of Episode 01, which had some major flaws. I've left Episode 01 up for the moment, but will delete it when I post Episode 04 in two weeks or so.
I'm excited about Episode 04. In it, I'm going to tackle SUBLIMATION from a number of different perspectives. The question I'm most often asked about this little known technique for diverting the seminal fluid to the brain is: Why would you do it? I like to turn the question around and ask: Why wouldn't you do it? Especially in an overcrowded world with so many seniors desperately trying to hang on to their sexual potency. In order to understand sublimation, each person should consider if it's reasonable to retreat from sexual activity at a certain age. To do so they need more information about sublimation. What can it do for me? Can it improve my life?
Quite simply the answer is yes! If your over sixty, why not use your remaining vigor for a creative purpose? By diverting the seminal fluid upward, you can strengthen your overall health and improve your physical well-being. What's more, you can cure yourself of any lingering sexual obsessions, like the idea that people must perceive you as virile and potent. When you're in your late sixties and seventies, it borders on parody. You may perceive yourself as potent and virile while others only see you as a dirty old man. So why not let go of this obsession? Activating Kundalini not only allows you to walk away from childish obsessions, it allows you to improve the lives of those around you. How?
Stay tuned for Episode 04 of The Get Life Right Podcast…
Hi JJ, just listened to the podcast released 4/25/07, the one about sexual addiction. It's pretty interesting to think that sexual addicts (especially the predatory ones) could be reformed by sublimation.
It sounds like you are promoting celibacy completely for your target audience, as if people with spouses/partners should stop having sex altogether. I guess I will have to wait to read your book to see if this is exactly what you mean .
Or are you suggesting people reduce sexual activity to some greater or lesser extent, rather than stop it altogether.
I was also wondering how female sexuality fits in with seminal sublimation.
thanks

Brian, you've touched on some interesting points. My goal in attacking this issue is to stir readers to explore the practical applications of Kundalini—that it isn't only an on-and-off spiritual phenomenon whose effects no two people agree on. As an example of practical benefits, I would point to the neural regeneration capabilities of Kundalini. Activated permanently, it is capable of rebuilding the body and restoring health. Of course, with such a great variety of Kundalini experiences, it is clear that permanent activation is not easy to accomplish. But that is another issue—one for a future post/podcast.
I wondered why nature had included Kundalini and the sublimation process in the body's arsenal of available functions. I examined the sublimation process in terms of my own life. How had it affected my day-to-day personal life? In brief, the sublimation process changed my whole relationship to sex: the time I devoted to it, the fantasizing about it, the time spent searching for gratification. Even though I never let sex take over my life, I feel strangely like a person who's overcome an addiction. Somewhat like the heavy drinker who finds himself in unfamiliar territory. No longer in a bar, but on a podium giving a speech about being in the grip of an unrelenting force.
In my recent Podcast I'm not proposing to convert anyone. In the first place, sublimation does not render a person unable to consummate the sexual act. Sublimation is a physical process; celibacy is a personal choice. A person who's permanently activated Kundalini may CHOOSE to become celibate or not. He or she can conceive or bear children. However, the sublimation process does change an individual's attitude towards sex. You tend to hold it at arms length. Why? because the fluid's flowing upward, being used for altogether different purposes.
In our world today, reasonable people, especially those beyond their useful reproductive years, might want to explore sublimation as an alternative to the pressures sex puts on a person in our culture, or any other culture for that matter. This includes the pressures related to appearance, notions of masculine and feminine identity, compulsions, obsessions, fantasies, and so on.
Do these pressures extend to people who have real problems with sex, the addicts featured in my latest Podcast, for instance? Perhaps…if they understood the benefits bestowed by Kundalini, that it could cure their obsessions without undergoing enforced radical treatments like castration.
Obviously, for married people to consider sublimation, either individually or jointly, they would have to make tough decisions. Why? Because sublimation is kind of like getting a tattoo. Once you get one, you can't remove it. Likewise after successful sublimation, you can't go back to the previous state. But in a world at the breaking point in immigration and overpopulation, why not be open to a sane solution to the problem of wanton sexuality? Even if it's not understood today, it should be discussed and considered? Like the hybrid car, it may not take off immediately.
That's right, a few years ago, people laughed at the hybrid car. Now they're selling very well. Why? Because the pollution and global warming crises have suddenly jumped to the front burner. I see wanton sexuality as a looming problem. I tried to highlight this in the Podcast. So, are we going to wait until government steps in with enforced castration programs or are we going to explore ways of dealing with it that still leave the choice to the individual?
