Bizarre Sexual Practices: Violation or Insensitivity?

The central theme of this issue revolves around a detailed exploration of various sexual practices, framed by questions posed by readers, particularly E.R. and Y.C. Cosmic Awareness clarifies that the foundation of cosmic law is not sex itself, but the respect for the rights and freedoms of all entities. Violations occur when these rights are denied or when an entity lacks the capacity to understand such transgressions.

Incest and Bestiality

Cosmic Awareness suggests that violating innocents, such as children, creates karmic relationships and situations that entities must overcome. In the case of bestiality, the entity is seen as violating themselves more than the ignorant beast, due to a lack of evaluation and research into the activity. The primary karmic repercussions stem from the patterns established in the mind and emotions, leading to guilt, self-esteem issues, and psychological scars, particularly for the child involved. The violation is characterized by insensitivity, lack of concern for the other's welfare, and surrender to lust, which are detrimental to healthy psychological growth.

Promiscuity and Incest Between Adults

The distinction between love and sex is emphasized. Sexual union can be the deepest form of communication when it evolves from a foundation of love and harmony. However, sexual relations are not a prerequisite for love, nor do they prove it. Love is defined as concern and sensitivity, while sex can be mere personal gratification. Even shallow expressions of love or relationships that appear as a 'facade of love' are seen as necessary steps for some entities to develop greater sensitivity and awareness. The issue notes that each relationship forms a karmic pattern, which can be beneficial, harmful, or balanced.

Sexual intercourse is described as approximately ten times more intense than social interaction, accelerating the building of karmic patterns, which can result in healing factors or wounds. Some entities seek to heal their own inadequadas through relationships, inadvertently creating further problems.

Age and Sexual Contact

Regarding the age for first sexual contact, Cosmic Awareness indicates that while sexual feelings begin rudimentarily around three to five years of age and are present at pubescence, the appropriateness of physical sexual conduct is influenced by culture and maturity. In some cultures, individuals as young as twelve to fifteen may be considered responsible, while in others, even older individuals may not be capable of handling sexual expression responsibly. Appropriateness is linked to responsiveness to the ramifications of one's expression.

The Problem of Pedophilia

In response to a question from Y.C., an incarcerated individual seeking treatment for pedophilia, Cosmic Awareness suggests that deep past-life recall and hypnosis can be beneficial. By examining past-life traumas, phobias, fears, and guilts, entities can gain understanding and work towards healing. Deep hypnosis, including exploring past lifetimes, is affirmed as a method to uncover and address such problems.

Dealing with Sexual Problems in the New Age

Cosmic Awareness posits that the sex force and sexual exchange can be considered a legitimate human need, akin to water or raiment. In a future 'true democracy' or 'Unified States of Awareness,' society may be obligated to provide socialization and facilitate sexual exchanges between interested individuals, potentially finding partners for those whose karma or astrology might otherwise prevent such connections. The newsletter suggests that in the future, places for communion, counseling, and assistance in relationships will exist, helping entities navigate sexual problems and overcome difficulties, thereby reducing societal crimes driven by lust and greed.

Concerning Homosexuality

Homosexuality is presented as having two levels: a karmic problem and a psycho-sexual development issue. Karmically, those who have judged homosexuals may find themselves in similar positions in future lives. The issue states that homosexuality is not merely a conditioned attitude but involves a significant homosexual phase in psycho-sexual development that can remain a basic fact of an individual's sexuality, even when later heterosexual developments occur. When linked with karmic relationships, this can produce homosexual individuals.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the interconnectedness of sexuality, spirituality, and karma. Cosmic Awareness emphasizes a non-judgmental approach, focusing on understanding the root causes of behaviors and promoting psychological and spiritual growth. The editorial stance, as conveyed through Cosmic Awareness, is one of guidance and education, suggesting that societal structures in the 'New Age' will evolve to support individuals in understanding and managing their sexuality in a healthier, more conscious manner, moving away from condemnation and imprisonment towards counseling and self-awareness. The publication itself is presented as a means of disseminating this channeled information for those entering the 'New Age.'
