3.1 The Unity System

Unity is not a single state of consciousness – there are levels within it, corresponding to the degree to which the soul / consciousness is disconnected from the Ego. In The Guide, these are defined as Complete, Strong and Weak. For completeness, there is also a level for not being in Unity (which is the level that full body and energy orgasms are in, because they do not disconnect the soul / consciousness from the Ego).

There are a number of techniques that can be used to reach each level of Unity. Not only does each level have its own particular feel, but each different technique used to reach each level provides a specific experience and specific sensations.

In the diagram below, each box represents a different technique to reach each level of Unity:

The arrows in the diagram illustrate that it is possible to move directly between any of the techniques / levels during a session (e.g. it is possible to enter Complete Unity directly from a full body orgasm with no intermediate steps). It is also possible to go down levels and to use different techniques within the same level in a single orgasm sequence (e.g. full body orgasm → Weak Unity (Energy Raising: Chest) → Weak Unity (Good Vibrations) → Complete Unity → Strong Unity (Internalisation)).

To complicate matters further, there are “enhancing techniques” (not shown in the diagram). These are additional techniques that are used before and during other soul orgasm techniques to change or enhance their effects.

Here’s a full list of the Unity levels and techniques in The Guide:

  • Complete Unity
    • Complete Ego Disconnection
  • Strong Unity
    • Expansion
    • Internalisation
  • Weak Unity
    • Energy Raising: Chest
    • Energy Raising: Forehead
    • Energy Raising: Top of Head
    • Good Vibrations
    • Expanding Energy Beyond Body
  • Enhancing Techniques (applicable to all Unity techniques)
    • Devotion / Love
    • Embodiment
    • Scenarios / Visualisations
    • Intention
    • Specific Meditations

This is not a comprehensive list of techniques found in all spiritual systems and religions, but there are enough here to provide years of exploration on their own and to build a strong foundation from which you will be able to utilise other techniques from other systems easily.

The most common types of technique left out of The Guide are breathing, chanting, and visualisation of spiritual and religious imagery (these would be classed as enhancing techniques). If you feel these would help you in any way, then incorporate them in your sessions…

Other spiritual systems share a common feature – they teach similar techniques to soul orgasms / Unity by starting at the lowest level of Ego disconnection then moving progressively to the highest. The Guide does the opposite – it recommends starting with Complete Unity, practising until you can enter it consistently, then learning Strong Unity: Expansion and Strong Unity: Internalisation, and the techniques associated with them, then finally moving on to the Weak Unity techniques.

I experienced Complete Unity on my first try without understanding that there were different levels of Unity, and I’m very lucky it happened like that. There are two major benefits of doing it this way: firstly, that there is a unique feeling associated with disconnecting the soul / consciousness from the Ego and it is strongest with Complete Unity – experiencing Complete Unity first will allow you to recognise this feeling easily so it will be much clearer when you enter weaker Unity states; secondly, that the Complete Unity technique can be forced (it’s the only technique in The Guide that is like this – all other techniques, including the other Unity techniques, need to be “allowed to happen” or “relaxed into”), so as long as you know the technique, and you are proficient at full body orgasms and energy orgasms, you should be able to enter Complete Unity easily.

That said, if you’d prefer to do the techniques from weak to strong, feel free – they may work better for some people that way.

The techniques within each level do not need to be followed in any order – just pick the ones which sound most interesting to you and try them.

Soul orgasm techniques require intent, both for the input and the desired output, so it is best to decide before a session which technique(s) you want to use and what you want to accomplish. This can even extend to choosing the music and details of the setting before a session.

Though it is possible to use different soul orgasm techniques in the same session, doing too many, too close together, can make them start to blend together, which can reduce the uniqueness of each technique. It can also be quite confusing to move quickly between techniques and remember what you’re supposed to be doing.
