It can be.. with MJ it's not so much, our connection is based on friendship and on history.
 
As I said in the thread that seangrey started, I have been in a relationship where M/s and bdsm were transfered into almost a spiritual experience.  It was very insightfull and taught me a lot, it also helped me to heal and move forward.  Consequently, that partner has written a few books and papers and recently became a Rabbi.  We keep in touch and he reminds me that my spirituality is what keeps me grounded and connected to this lifestyle.  Spirituality and that 'source' is what inables trust and when in subspace the thoughts that are going through my mind, its also what keeps me grounded.

Hi

Thank you all for the reply. [:)]

It was mentioned overly romanticism of BDSM and that was not really what i had in mind. i do not believe BDSM, D/s, M/s and so are better or more Spiritual than a vanilla relationship. What i was wondering was if anyone found the practice Spiritual in any way, not more Spiritual than such and such, just if they found it Spiritual.

So yes i would say that my bdsm relationships are spirtual since they transcend the purely physical. They involve trust, respect, reciprocity, sensitivity and communication, both physical and cerebral.


i see it the same way Prinsexx.

as for relationships....there absolutely, without a doubt, is a spiritual connection...its a requirement for me...but i am a very spiritual person, in everything i do...why would i exclude it in M/s?


That is a very good point Chellekitty i once read the words of a wise man that said that he was Spiritual and therefore everything he did was Spiritual. And that is so i think, if one is a Spiritual person everything one do becomes Spiritual.

I'm surprised you started this thread considering you started an almost identical one about exactly a year ago.


If i did then i am sorry LuckyAlbatross. i am a member of many forums, combined on them all i write several thousand posts a year. i do not always remember every post or tread i have made or on witch forum i have made it on. Oh and thank you for the links.

Hey try having a look at these two books - I found them on amazon.

Dark Moon Rising: Pagan BDSM & the Ordeal Path
by Raven Kaldera

Philosophy In the Dungeon, The Magic of Sex & Spirit
by Jack Rinella

if you are a spirital person, everything in your life is relitive through your spirituality. just my thoughts on the matter,    phoenix


i completely agree. If you are a Spiritual person all you do become Spiritual. But then perhaps it is not the person. Perhaps every thing in the world is Spiritual and all we need only learn to see it that way.

i wish you all well

Kink is the pursuit of a unitive experience, a joining of the self with another through the transcendent exchange of energy.  Spirituality is the pursuit of The Unitive Experience, a joining of the Self to God through the transcendent exchange of energy.  Kink is a microcosmic mirror experience for the big picture: contact with the Divine.  By learning how to seek unity within the context of kink, we teach ourselves a template for exploration in other realms.  We teach ourselves what it feels like to find timeless space; we learn what it feels like to access our Truth.  It's the same process. Spirituality is a higher form of deliberate focus and a powerful method by which to explore our connection not only to ourselves, but to Everything else.

Within the context of kink, I learn profound amounts about who I am and who I am not.  I learn how I engage with the world around me.  I learn how to keep my boundaries clear yet flexible.  I learn how to merge with the Other, without becoming lost to myself. Granted, there are graduating levels of intensity, but each time I do a scene I learn more about what works for me, I learn more about verbal and non-verbal communication, I experience a simultaneous rush of power and surrender to the scene itself.  To play well, I must be fully aware of who and where I am, while paying full attention to my playmate. kink serves as a delightful, challenging, rigorous method by which to pursue the highest states of ecstasy that humans can reach.

My energy simply flows. I never try to analize or second guess it-very futile. I just enjoy it in the moment-that's enough.
