          Our deepest nature, our true spirit, is full of love and boundless freedom. When we lose touch with our fullness, we begin to yearn for that which seems missing. The feminine in each of us longs for a deeper love and tries to find it in intimate relationship, family, or friends. The masculine in each of us struggles for greater freedom and tries to achieve it through financial, creative or political challenges.

          Yet, our life often feels dissatisfying because we are searching for a joy that can only emerge by being who we are, fully and deeply. The feminine grows in spirituality by learning to live as love rather than by hoping for it. The masculine spirit grows spirituality by learning to live as freedom rather than struggling for it.

          These two sexual paths, though distinct, actually lead one to spiritual bliss. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the embrace of two lovers, where the play of sexual differences leads to a unity of blissful oneness, the "Oh God" beyond even pleasure.    From Finding God in Sex by Michael Deida
