Stage 3: Soul Orgasms


We humans are conscious beings – we experience thoughts, sensations and emotions, and make decisions with intent; we have a sense of self (the Ego) and are self-aware.

The concept that humans have an underlying consciousness or a soul (or similar concept such as a spirit), has been accepted in almost every society throughout history, regardless of the level of belief in religion or spirituality. Despite this, we experience life through our Ego – bodily sensations (sight, smell, sound, taste, touch, proprioception etc.) and mental processes (thoughts, perceptions, emotions etc.) – never through our consciousness / soul.

Well, almost never.

There are altered states of consciousness in which it feels like the Ego has been dissolved or disconnected, and reality is being experienced from the perspective of the consciousness / soul. This is the realm of meditation, devotional prayer, psychedelic drugs, and soul orgasms.

Being in one of these altered states of consciousness is otherworldly – stabilised orgasms that feel like floating in an infinite ocean of blissful euphoria and love, with a strong sense of connection to something beyond the self and the individual consciousness / soul. Saint Teresa of Ávila, a devout Carmelite nun and noted Christian mystic from the 1500s, described the joy her soul experienced when entering these states as being so extreme, it was as if “the Lord wishes to reveal for a moment, in a more sublime manner than through any spiritual vision or taste, the glory of heaven”.

This sense of connection to something “beyond the self” is inherent to soul orgasms, and how you define or explain it is up to you. Different religions, spiritual systems and scientific disciplines define and explain it in different ways – should you feel the need to define or explain it at a particular time, you can do so in a way that feels right for you at that time. In different circumstances and over time, how you define or explain it may change, and that’s fine too.

Due to these strong feelings of connection to something “beyond the self” and for simplicity, these altered states of consciousness are referred to in The Guide as “Unity”. Ultimately though, names and definitions don’t matter, it’s being in Unity and everything that the connection to the “beyond the self” brings that are important.

Simply being in Unity can be considered to be a “stabilised energy” orgasmic state. Whilst in Unity, it is possible to have additional orgasms and to create elaborate, immersive mental and sensual constructs that provide Pleasure that has a unique otherworldly, infinite and connected feeling. There are endless ways to journey through the realms of soul orgasms and Unity, and just as many ways to use them in the service of Pleasure, love, joy, connection, creativity, healing, spirituality, faith and other pursuits. A single lifetime of exploration would only scratch the surface of their potential to enrich humanity.

As you can tell from Saint Teresa’s wonderfully evocative description above, entering Unity can be an overwhelmingly powerful religious or spiritual experience. If full body and energy orgasm sessions feel like taking recreational drugs like ecstasy or MDMA, soul orgasm sessions are more in the spectrum of psychedelic, religious or out of body experiences. For many of you, entering Unity will definitely be out of your comfort zone, especially the first time. The aftermath of being in Unity will leave you blissfully content for days afterwards, but could also compel you to re-examine deeply, your core beliefs on life, morality, purpose, religion, spirituality, relationships, habits, insecurities and many other elements of the human condition that previously you only thought about superficially, or not at all.

For these reasons, Stage 3 is not recommended for everyone. If you have learnt how to have full body orgasms or energy orgasms, you will live an incredibly Pleasure, joy and love-filled life – you do not need to learn how to have soul orgasms for this.

If you’re unsure about starting Stage 3, please consider the following question: “do you feel a need for “something more” than the Pleasure and other benefits that full body orgasms and energy orgasms provide?”. If the answer is a strong “yes”, then that’s a good indication that you should start Stage 3, even if you are nervous about it. If not, then stick with full body orgasms and energy orgasms for the time being.

Stage 3: Soul Orgasms contains instructions to access a number of different states of Unity, as well as for a number of additional techniques to generate specific effects within Unity. They build upon the abilities learnt in Stages 1 and 2 of The Guide – if you’re proficient in most of these techniques, including the ones listed in the disclaimer above, you’ll find it easy to enter Unity and have a variety of soul orgasms.

The instructions for the techniques in Stage 3 are not dogma – there are other ways of reaching each state of Unity or to generate each specific effect / mental construct described, so feel free to change your approach if you think other methods might work better for you. Being able to enter Unity and to be able to achieve each effect are what’s important, not the method used.

Similarly, not everyone believes in the concept of a soul, so if you don’t want to call them “Soul Orgasms”, call them “Consciousness Orgasms” or anything else you like – I settled on the name “Soul Orgasms” because I mostly feel like I have a soul rather than a consciousness (although sometimes I have sessions where I feel strongly that it is a consciousness rather than a soul), plus I think “Soul Orgasm” has a good ring to it.
