Orgasm and Wu Wei 183<br />

tract each other with vast electro-magnetic and gravitational fields.<br />

The stars and quasars shoot out hot yang streams <strong>of</strong> light and<br />

radiation to be received by the cold yin vacuum <strong>of</strong> empty space.<br />

We witness this cosmic love-making from afar, reflected in the<br />

eerie light that reaches us on earth by way <strong>of</strong> the moon or shooting<br />

stars that streak across the sky. Perhaps all this light energy ends<br />

up being sucked back into the womb <strong>of</strong> the universe, the black<br />

holes, beyond which is true nothingness, what the <strong>Taoist</strong>s call<br />

"Wu Chi."<br />

In a parallel sense the male's seed is his solar or nuclear<br />

energy. He cultivates or stockpiles it so it can be exploded in a<br />

controlled manner in his tan tiens. It is then emitted out into his<br />

personal space as radiant heat. A woman can absorb it and give it<br />

back in material form as a cooling mystic heat which heals. The<br />

<strong>Taoist</strong>s call the balance <strong>of</strong> mind within which this alchemical process<br />

<strong>of</strong> transformation effortlessly occurs "Wu Wei". This is translated<br />

as "non-action", and sometimes taken to mean that the <strong>Taoist</strong>s<br />

are passive mystical observers <strong>of</strong> nature who never get<br />

involved for fear <strong>of</strong> upsetting the delicate balance <strong>of</strong> yin/yang.<br />

What it really implies is a neutrality, or state <strong>of</strong> receptivity, so that<br />

anything can spontaneously happen. It's a passive state in the<br />

sense that the entire universe is pure potential, but it is active in<br />

that it exists in total harmony with the universe that is dynamically<br />

manifesting itself every moment. You are eternally free to act or<br />

not-act, depending on what the situation demands.<br />

On a practical level, women might be seen as living closer to<br />

the state <strong>of</strong> "Wu Wei" than men, for it is their nature as yin to<br />

empty themselves and receive the universe to realize fullness. This<br />

yin essence is what makes a woman's energy so spontaneous and<br />

attractive to a man. The less effort she makes, the more natural and<br />

easy and accessible she appears to a man. A woman can just lie<br />

there and get pregnant; she makes the very act <strong>of</strong> creation seem<br />

simple. Men, on the other hand, are yang, with an expanding energy<br />

that seems to imply great effort to sustain itself. How can men<br />

effortlessly get bigger or stronger or create anything without work<br />

and more work?<br />

Perhaps men can find an answer in their experience <strong>of</strong> the<br />

valley <strong>org</strong>asm. This <strong>org</strong>asm <strong>of</strong> the total mind, body, and spirit is<br />

entered into effortlessly. When you are in the valley, strolling<br />

through the lovely scenery that includes only you, your lover, and
