Today is the first day of the rest of your life.
---------------------------
Our wishes are not just idle day-dreams. Our wishes are an expression of our innermost predilection - a predilection which it is perfectly possible to fulfill, provided we use our knowledge wisely.
---------------------------
We make of our lives what we will.
---------------------------
Life is not your social conditioning, and neither are you your behaviour.
---------------------------
If you wish to change you must cast off your self-image.
---------------------------
To relate to ourselves, to others, or to the world, we need to be aware. To relate implies understanding.
---------------------------
Take responsibility for having this person in your life.
---------------------------
Don't treat the other person in your life any differently than you would a stranger.
---------------------------
Accept yourself for who and what you are.
---------------------------
Always look for the positive; focus on the positive.
---------------------------
Acknowledge gender according to its proper potential.
---------------------------
Compress time.
---------------------------
Believe in yourself and in others.
---------------------------
Make allowances for the differences between males and females.
---------------------------
Laugh! Life is fun!
---------------------------
Be real. Make yourself and others real.
---------------------------
The cornerstone of true love is intelligent co-operation.
---------------------------
Ruthlessness and unconditional love are synonymous.
---------------------------
Actions speak louder than words.
---------------------------
All of life is a system of games. Some games just require more carefully defined rules than others.

Question :
Théun, I am really struggling with my approach towards sex. I just cannot see how we can forgo sex altogether without suppression. Also, why is it so bad to speak about making love? Is making love not an expression of compassion for one another?
Answer :
My friend, if you wish to drive a BULL into an absolute FURY, wave a red flag in front of him! If you wish to drive me into full flight, feed me the words, "compassion" and "making love!"
WHAT is COM-PASSION? And HOW do you MAKE love?
But, yes, I DO grasp what you are asking! It is simply NOT possible for humanity at THIS point in time to simply forgo or forget about sex! Why? Simply because it IS at THIS time humanity's GREATEST challenge! But it is precisely HEREIN that lies the rub!
Will humanity continue to INDULGE itself in this challenge? Or will humanity start to FACE this challenge? So far the record is not too good, for even though the Guardians of the Race have in the past introduced venereal disease to CURB humanity's INDULGENCE, medical science simply found a CURE! Admittedly, medical science DOES have a vested interest in having done so! But even in spite of the Guardians' most "recent" attempt at CURBING this indulgence with the introduction of AIDS, for which there is NO cure, men and women would rather DIE than relinquish their indulgence!
Furthermore, you by now well know that suppression is not the answer! So this is all the MORE reason to FACE this challenge! Sex in itself is not wrong. On the contrary, it is exceedingly BEAUTIFUL and therefore SACRED! But it is HEREIN that lies humanity's GREATEST CHALLENGE to date, for people do not today see sex as being a sacred act, but instead see it as a fun act which is their right!
But to return to your question about making love. If a couple make love, as it were, as opposed to merely giving vent to their sexual lust, then the act is an emotional and creative act, irrespective of whether it results in PHYSICAL conception or not. In this case making love is an expression of the drive to inclusiveness and, as such, is not life-destructive in any way. Also, always remember that sex is a very powerful energy and that in having sex the creative energy is called forth, resulting in conception of a kind that MUST and WILL come to birth sooner or later. When the creative energy is released in having sex it is EXACTLY the same as when it is released in EXPRESSING UNCONDITIONAL LOVE IN ACTION! Therefore humanity's challenge lies in finding the DIFFERENCE between HAVING sex and USING the creative power of the Void! In the first you FORE-GET RESPONSE-ABILITY! In the second you RE-SPECT RESPONSE-ABILITY!
