It is one that offers a richer, more intimate and fulfilling experience of lovemaking than most couples have become accustomed to in their sex life. The process teaches man and woman how to make love together innocently, intimately, meaningfully. Couples find the experience expands into realms of pleasure and ecstasy beyond physical sex or just an erotic sexual release. In this process, the focus shifts to something completely effortless and natural. You learn together how to attune to that innocence, intimately -- with each other and within your selves. Yet, the process goes beyond that. When your hearts and your bodies truly open up and connect together, flow together, something magical happens. You transcend your individual experience and merge into an experience together that is all consuming. It takes you beyond the pleasure of sex, even beyond your heartfelt feelings together, into an expansiveness at your spiritual core. There you find fulfillment, and wholeness, together. Certainly, many have had experiences like this, or glimpses of this in their love relationships. When couples initially fall in love, when their hearts were so open, their innocence and love dominated their lovemaking experience. But the knowledge of how to consciously maintain those experiences in lovemaking, even deepen them together, has been lacking. Without that knowledge, sex can begin to lose its richness and fulfillment. It becomes less about making love, a heartfelt expression of love together. Instead, many couples find it becomes just a physical act of sexual gratification. It has lost its timeless ability to touch your soul and nourish your love together. This orientation and the process of making love in The LoveMaking Process are completely unique. It has evolved from the teachings of Barry Long, a renowned mystic in the 1980’s and 90’s in Australia. The process is unlike any system or approach to sex -- whether from the East or West -- that you have experienced. And the results are far-reaching, creating in your relationship a fabric of intimacy and fulfillment together that is greater than you could imagine. This manual outlines this orientation and teaches the skills in The LoveMaking Process. Many couples find it meaningful to read it together out loud as a shared experience. Or you may prefer reading at your own pace. Section One presents the theory, and Section Two focuses on the specific process. As you practice these skills, some of you will discover habits that have kept you from being fully attuned to your partner, or present with your selves, in sex. We have found that repeated readings of this material will continually deepen your understanding and clarity of the process. This greater awareness will enable you increasingly to relax and “let go” into what is completely natural and innocent, again. One last note: Even though the tradition of this approach views LoveMaking as an inherently spiritual experience, you can strip away the spiritual concepts and jargon and simply apply these healthy, basic principles in your sex lives. Regardless of your beliefs or orientation, these simple processes will enrich and expand your sexual experiences together as a couple. So that LoveMaking continues to be an important source of joy and intimate fulfillment together. www.chriswrightcounseling.com A New Orientation to Lovemaking Copyright © 2006 Chris Wright ✦ Transforming Sex Into Making Love Page 54 CHAPTER 14 Morning & Evening Prayer For Bonding, Enlivening & Balancing Ourselves This is an abridged version of Chapter 14 There is a spiritual tradition that invites couples to make love using a very simple protocol each morning and evening. As in all religious teachings, the male-female union is considered holy, as a type of surrender and prayer together. In this exercise, known as Morning and Evening Prayer, the man and woman come to be united together in one perfect, holy union. Each morning upon arising and/or evening before sleep, the man and woman start the day and/or end the day by lying together. Their naked bodies are touching, their arms around each other – with the flaccid penis touching and making contact with the outer lips of the vagina. They move fluidly, different positions, different points of contact, whole new sensations. As the penis and the vagina touch, an energetic, magnetic connection is made. The yin and yang energy poles of the Universe have connected. This is very sublime to experience. You continue to relax your Awareness, as there is nowhere to go, nothing to do but enjoy the sensations of your bodies together. You may be kissing, caressing, exploring each other, delighting in each other. Just as in cuddling, except that his penis gently feels and slowly explores the outer lips of her labia. He is not even erect yet, but enjoys the sensation of contact with the vagina. Emotionally they just relax, moving with and enjoying all the sensations of their bodies embracing, allowing the bodies to drink in the physical connection to each other. Cuddling, kissing, tasting, discovering -- feeling everything that emerges together -- lightly, sensitively, with Awareness, together. They get out of their minds and into their bodies, and into their hearts, where love is being made. The bodies know how to move together to enjoy their connection. No practiced moves, everything is innocent enjoyment together of all the many sensations that emerge. As they savor and let go into the experience, they can feel the penis and vagina responding -- expanding, opening –- innocently, without effort. It is a wonderful experience to enjoy, and to watch unfold together. The penis and vagina are highly sensitive, conscious instruments of perception that will take on a life of their own. They respond to each other as in a dance -- acquainting, discovering, enjoying, unfolding, and melding into one together. You just have to get out of the way. . . If time does not allow, then this connection is complete. The cleansing, fulfilling energies are released into each other’s being. You are basking in this love together, into these innocent sensations, into the ripples of Life force energies streaming through your bodies, through the penis and vagina’s connection. Let that natural rhythm take you to heaven. This is your Morning Prayer, your Evening Prayer. This is your connection to Source. And it is your fundamental union with each other. The experience of fully connecting these two fundamental Life forces with the aware penis in the welcoming vagina enables something extraordinary to emerge, something that nourishes your soul. This is the same incredible moment that many couples experienced when they first fell in love. This moment, this sublime “in-love” moment, happens every time, no matter how many years and years go by. It never becomes stale. Energetically, it is the lifeblood of your innocent love. But it takes making love free of sexual or erotic excitement and imagination to experience fully and freely. www.chriswrightcounseling.com A New Orientation to Lovemaking Copyright © 2006 Chris Wright ✦ Transforming Sex Into Making Love Page 55 This is Morning and Evening Prayer in its simplest form. There is more to experience in expressing your selves in making love with this live energy, but we will explore that as you read further. However, as you learn how to make the shift over to LoveMaking, you eventually let go of all frameworks. By then, everything you do comes from that place of innocence and appreciation inside. So there is no need for structure. There are no rules, or frameworks, or steps, or techniques to follow. Morning and Evening Prayer are designed for you to soak in the closeness and stillness of your union each day, whether you come together for 10 minutes or an hour. In connecting to these energies with each other, you find peace within yourselves. The experience of a meditative, enlivening state of Oneness, of perfect balance, becomes a form of spiritual practice in your lives together. Movement and Stillness together, Awareness and surrender, innocence and attunement, passion and the sublime, love and appreciation – that is LoveMaking. You are melding together, celebrating together, for as long as you desire. As you will discover, the energies that are being unleashed to reverberate throughout your body and your soul, they dictate the pace. At times, it can unfold into intensity or quietly into the sublime -whatever is needed unfolds naturally. It can expand into a transcendent Expanded Orgasm, or it might build up to a narrow Peak Orgasm. As you will. Together. Morning Prayer enlivens your mind and your body, preparing you for a lively day. Evening Prayer relaxes the mind and body, smoothes out any rough edges, as you prepare for an evening or a good night’s sleep. With the balancing of the energy meridians, it is like having a relaxing, invigorating morning and evening massage -- an inner massage, if you will. Tensions, discord, emotional distance all are melted away, cleansed from your spirit. In addition to the love that is enlivened together, making love now becomes a process of opening up deeply and feeling together, caring together, as well as a meditation, relaxation, and purification together - in all ways, a balancing of your self. The whole process is invaluable for strengthening the fabric of your relationship as you truly connect together as One. Each day this becomes something you can offer each other that is incredibly special and nourishing. Not taking advantage of this in your relationship is to miss a precious gift in being together. Note that this simplified process of LoveMaking does not need to be clothed in a spiritual framework of morning or evening “prayer.” You can make love together anytime simply because you enjoy it together. Or because you enjoy the increased flow of energy that it gives you. Or you enjoy how relaxed and content it makes you both feel. Or you make love for the wonderful timeless Expanded Orgasms that continue for hours that you experience. Or, maybe come together to deepen your “quality time” together -- you enjoy the closeness of your relationship, with the love of your life. Now let’s expand beyond this most simplest framework of LoveMaking. There is much more to be experienced. www.chriswrightcounseling.com A New Orientation to Lovemaking Copyright © 2006 Chris Wright
