182 <strong>Taoist</strong> <strong>Secrets</strong> Of <strong>Love</strong><br />

But when a man begins to cultivate his seed, he can do it day<br />

and night if he has the discipline. His body will speed up production<br />

<strong>of</strong> its seed. This permits a man to cultivate his chi more rapidly<br />

than the woman, who is bound to a slower monthly cycle. This is<br />

why many <strong>of</strong> the gurus and masters are male. The other reason is<br />

that women by nature are yin, and thus closer to Emptiness. They<br />

simply don't feel as strong a compulsion to pursue such a yang,<br />

expansive goal <strong>of</strong> teaching outwardly. Women have a different<br />

journey.<br />

But this is also the very heart <strong>of</strong> man's fascination with<br />

woman and with her <strong>org</strong>asm, which is a kind <strong>of</strong> inward teaching for<br />

the male adept subtle enough to learn from her. The female <strong>org</strong>asm<br />

is an inward explosion—or implosion—<strong>of</strong> her yin essence. In the<br />

valley <strong>org</strong>asm man can experience this imploding yin energy in his<br />

different Tan Tiens as a fusion, a kind <strong>of</strong> meltdown. Yin represents<br />

earth energy, or physical matter. What happens during her <strong>org</strong>asm<br />

is that the very structure <strong>of</strong> her body is vibrating and imploding,<br />

and by harmonising your energy with hers you are opened up to a<br />

new and polar opposite experience <strong>of</strong> your body. The woman's<br />

wisdom is that if you go deep into the earth, your body, it will lift<br />

you into heaven. It's an initiation into an inner mystery <strong>of</strong> being<br />

that women are empowered to give men, but can't bestow without<br />

an infusion <strong>of</strong> male energy as a catalyst.<br />

<strong>Love</strong>rs who have no esoteric model to guide their path sometimes<br />

gain glimpses <strong>of</strong> this meltdown state when they languish in a<br />

kind <strong>of</strong> sweet trance after love-making and their energies fuse in a<br />

spontaneous valley <strong>org</strong>asm. Their bodies may feel transparent, or<br />

they may feel like they are floating; sounds arrive with a tinkling<br />

crystal clarity, and colors in the room seem brighter, as if freshly<br />

washed. This is an altered state <strong>of</strong> consciousness in which they are<br />

perceiving with purity and directness the primal unity <strong>of</strong> the natural<br />

world.<br />

The goal <strong>of</strong> <strong>Taoist</strong> cultivation is to sustain and intensify that<br />

state, in which the separateness we ordinarily feel is dissolved and<br />

integrated into a higher reality. A higher <strong>org</strong>asm <strong>of</strong> our mind and<br />

body magically moves us closer to the original chi which exists<br />

everywhere. The pure fusion <strong>of</strong> the yin and yang subtle energies in<br />

the microcosm <strong>of</strong> our body reminds us that the same is happening<br />

in the macrocosm—that the sun and the moon and earth and the<br />

Milky Way literally make love with one another. The planets at-
