Question
Hello,
I am obsessed with sex, and it is an obstacle to my practice. So much so that it makes me despair. What can I do?

Answer from Master Kosen
You must clearly distinguish the sexual organ itself, with its own life, functions, and place in the body’s community of organs, and its right and duty to express itself as what it is.
But in fact, the whole problem lies in the relationship between the sexual organ, the brain, and the heart, and this relationship is energetic.
First, between sex and the heart.
You can love without making love; you can make love without loving.
An alliance between the heart and sex is wonderful, as long as you never forget who is the emperor and who is the general.
When energy flows from the brain down to the sexual organ, the fire is stoked and quickly becomes uncontrollable. The general loses control, and the emperor is affected. This is therefore a problem of the brain, which does not control its thoughts and is addicted to endlessly reproducing the same emotions from the past. You must master your thinking.
Finally, when the sexual organ is overflowing with energy, alchemists know very well that it must be drawn up along the spine to the brain to nourish it.
