    The ultimate synthesis happens at Sahasrar, the crown chakra. When sex energy reaches Sahasrar, a one-thousand-petal lotus opens. When a Master blesses a disciple, he puts his hand on the Sahasrar. And if the disciple is really receptive, surrendered, he will suddenly feel an upsurge of energy, running from the sex center to the Sahasrar.

    Bliss is the Meeting of Inner Man and Woman

    The last synthesis is of object and subject, the outer and inner. In a sexual orgasm, outer and inner meet, but momentarily. In Sahasrar they meet permanently. One has to travel from sex to Samadhi. In sex ninety-nine percent is sex, one percent is Sahasrar; in Sahasrar ninety-nine percent is Sahasrar, one percent is sex. Both are joined; they are bridged, by deep currents of energy. Sex is just a glimpse of Sahasrar. Sahasrar is going to deliver a thousand fold bliss to us, benediction to us.

    In bliss the outer and the inner meet, I and thou meet, man and woman meet, yin and yang meet; and the meeting is absolute. Then there is no parting; then there is no divorce.

    This is called yoga. Yoga means the meeting of the two into one. In Christianity mystics have called it UNIO MYSTICA; that is the exact translation of yoga. UNIO MYSTICA: the mysterious union. At the Sahasrar the alpha and the omega meet, the beginning and the end. The beginning is in the sex center, sex is our alpha; samadhi is our omega. And unless alpha and omega meet; unless we have attained to this supreme union, we will remain miserable, because our destiny is that. We will remain unfulfilled. We can be fulfilled only at this highest peak of synthesis.

    To search the one, or to search awareness, is the same; because by becoming aware, we become one — or, by becoming one, we become aware. In so many ways, in millions of ways, we are searching oneness. The child is born. His first functioning in the world is through eating. This is the first love — food. Food gives the first orgasm to the child. When we feel satisfied after taking food or drinking water, that satisfaction is a feeling of oneness: matter from the outside has been absorbed into the inside, the inner and the outer have met. The meeting is not very deep — it cannot be, it is of matter; it is very superficial but still it is there.

    The Master Gives the Key

    Sex is the basic duality. We have been arguing about and discussing for centuries how to attain the non dual. But we go on discussing it as if it is some intellectual matter. We cannot attain non duality unless the basic duality of sex disappears within us. And this happens only when our inner man and woman melt so much that they dissolve into each other — and all the boundaries are lost, and all the distinctions are lost, and they are one. When the inner orgasm, the spiritual ecstasy happens, we are neither man nor woman. Now another world of orgasm, inner orgasm, of being with oneself, arises. But that arises only through being with the other; one grows, matures through the other. Then a moment comes when we can be alone, tremendously happy. There is no need for any other. The need has disappeared but we have learned much through it — we have learned much about ourselves. The other became the mirror, and we have not broken the mirror. We have learned so much about ourselves. Now there is no need to look into the mirror. We can close your eyes and we can see your face there. But that face we would not be able to see if there had been no mirror from the very beginning.

    Normally, as we are, we are a divided being; our male energy seeking female energy outside, our female energy seeking male energy outside — this is the normal human being. The whole thing has to be transformed; our male energy seeking female energy within. The man within us trying to meet the woman within us is very dangerous, because nature has not provided for it.

    Nature has given us an urge to meet the woman, to meet the man, and that urge is natural. But to try for this happening to occur within us alone, is not natural. The key has to be applied very, very delicately. It can be done only under a master, one who has traveled the path. That’s why the deepest secrets of religion cannot be given through scripture; they can be given only through initiation under a master.

    When we go deep in meditation a moment comes when the lover finds the beloved — not as a separate entity, but as one with the self. One is both: The lover and the beloved. This non-duality, this non-dichotomy takes us to the point at the highest peak of consciousness where everything starts blossoming.

    When our hearing is inward, our seeing is inward — and that means when we are feeling light without form, sound without sound, a silent music inside — our inner man and inner woman have met. This is the union, the total orgasm, UNIO MYSTICA.
