Sacred Sex?

In this powerful and timely transmission, Shunyamurti calls on Sat Yogis to prepare for uncertain times through ceaseless self-inquiry and inner stillness. By transcending ego and body identification, we can abide in the freedom of the Real Self and radiate peace into the collective consciousness. We must be free of any trace of ego-consciousness so that we can fulfill our God-given functions during these final days.

How can you sustain divine love, inner peace, and fearlessness when the world around you is falling apart? In this retreat invitation, Shunyamurti introduces "How to Sustain a Divine Life," a retreat devoted to gathering the spiritual strength required to face uncertainty, loss, and the collapse of everything we depend upon. Physical preparation alone cannot meet the coming challenges; the essential question is whether we can maintain equanimity, love, and clarity under even the most difficult conditions.

Drawing on the mystical vision of the Sufi sage Suhrawardi, Shunyamurti explores a progression from the City of Darkness and degraded egoic desire, through self-reproach, divine love, spiritual discipline, prayer and samadhi, and finally to fanā: the annihilation of the ego and the complete dissolution of separation from God.

What does it mean to truly give yourself to God? In this powerful teaching, Shunyamurti explores the radical shift from a profane to a sacred way of living, where the ego’s desires, judgments, and false sense of agency give way to love, surrender, and divine intelligence.

Question:

I really want to know Shunyamurti’s opinion: do we have to try to recover men and women’s relationship, or is it going to collapse like any other fractal? The loneliness epidemic seems to destroy most humans.

Shunyamurti’s Reply:

Yes, the energy that moves the ego is the desire of the Other. When that is absent for too long, the ego shuts down its limited creativity, and becomes progressively more hardened and cold. This is the end of the era of the ego. That self-limiting structure of willful ignorance and terror of the infinite is already beginning to disappear, along with its nightmarish world. In those who turn away from the lure of the ego and discover the source of consciousness within, the Infinite Self is directly revealed. This explains the classic zen aphorism: First, there is a world of egos. Then, after attaining satori, there is no world, only the Light of Consciousness free of differences. Then, in the final phase of revelation, there is again a world, but now it is the expression of the perfect love, blissful intelligence, and power of freedom of the Inconceivable Absolute Self.

Namaste,
Shunyamurti

What does it mean to be a friend of the world? In this Q&A, Shunyamurti explores the archetype of God the Friend—known in Christianity as the Comforter, in Buddhism as the Bodhisattva, and throughout the world's wisdom traditions as the compassionate presence that heals, supports, and uplifts all beings. True friendship is not merely kindness or sympathy but the capacity to embody divine serenity, to speak truth without judgment, and to hold others in a field of love that transforms suffering into peace.
