The Best Ways to learn about LOVE AND SENSUALITY; KINDNESS AND CRUELTY; The Gospel of Thomas; Stories; Time; Gender; Strength & Power; Death
Our first experience is a sensual experience, but as we live we become closed off to sensuality, to our bodies and to the joys of being embodied. Instead, guided by philosophy, psychology and embodied spirituality, we can open ourselves to transcendent sensuality which will elevate our relationships, sexual and otherwise, to entirely new and ever-expanding heights. There is no finitude. There are no limits. The underlying energy of all universes can and should fuel our creativity so that each of us may be a beacon of love, sensuality, caring, compassion, and truth. In addition to The Best Ways to Learn about Love and Sensuality, this episode also discusses Animism and Pantheism; Kindness and Cruelty, Jesus and the Gospel of Q (Sayings Gospel); Stories; Time; Strength and Power; Gender] and Death this Short Takes 3 also includes observations on Religion, Civilization, the Context in which we exist in contemporary society, and Masculinity and Femininity.

Musical excerpts: “Sonate pour Anita” (dedicated to Anita DeFrancesco) “Der Schatten eines Traumes Teil 8 -- Erfüllte Sehnsucht“ (The Shadow of a Dream – Fulfilled Longing) The night becomes colorless and the shadow is silent Still heart, do not tell anyone that the morning will rise, a flicker around it, as if a lake was billowing there. Fragrances waft gently, as if from tender pain. I want to hide so that nothing will guess me -- So that only the wind blows into my silence -- So that only the rain runs down my window. Within are all the sighs of my sisters. Christoph Friedrich Heinle (1894 – 1914) (Wenige Tage nach Ausbruch des Ersten Weltkriegs und wahrscheinlich aus Verzweiflung über dessen vorhergesehene Folgen nahmen sich Christoph Friedrich Heinle und seine Freundin Friederike (Rika) Seligson durch Gas das Leben.)
