Meaning, maybe it’s a high performance vagina, instead of one of those fuel-efficient ones that glide so neatly and easily over the roads without making any noise; or one of those off-road gas-guzzling trucks you use to haul your boat to the dock and your trash to the dump, and if you drive it drunk into a tree at low speeds, no one gets hurt.
She says maybe my vagina is one of those fancy-schmancy types that you have to treat with tenderness, keep in a warm, humidity-controlled environment, spend hours polishing in the driveway on Sunday afternoons in the warm midday sun.
She says, “Sam, you don’t really think you can turn a $192K high-performance vehicle into a charter bus, do you? I mean, come on! Some cars are just made for different things. You, for instance, need a highly skilled mechanic. One who knows cars inside and out and decides this is the one he’s going to pour his life savings into, to tune up until it purrs, who tinkers and fixes, adjusts belts and hoses and fuel to air ratios until he finds just the right balance and that Ferrari becomes the vehicle that carries him through his life with elegant ease and a little bit of flash, a little bit of pride, but he really knows how to drive it.
When he gets into that driver’s seat, that car becomes a natural extension of himself. He knows how to handle it on curves, he knows when it’s too snowy or rainy to take it out of the garage, and when something isn’t right, he sets his heart on figuring how to fix it.
So stop trying to make your vagina into some cheap thing you picked up at WalMart! You’re a Ferrari. Get over it. Now you just have to wait for a real driver!”
Ahh, I said. Now I get it.

ReplyDeleteAt Elat Chayyim recently my mishpachah / tribe leader shared some info about tantric practices that he and his wife were following. Basically they have re-framed their physical as well as other interactions as in-effect holy communion. I missed the latter sessions, but he sent the following as followup -- might be useful:
ReplyDelete... You asked that I send you the steps for sacred space. They are below, in addition here is the website of my Tantric teachers:

In addition, I very highly recommend to each of you who is married, the couples workshops (this is not tantric, it is relationships) by Robert Gass and Judith Ansara- http://sacredunion.com/site/
Sacred space: (from the description by Steve and Lokita Carter)
To create sacred space you need a special cloth, some sacred objects and any other decorative object. Arrange these things to bring safety, comfort and openess to the space you and your partner are creating together. Now sit down across from each other and honor each other with a heart salutation.
Create a bubble of your own energies around both of you, using your arms to draw it in the air. Take out any un-wanted energy by naming it: "I throw out distractions" "I through out thinking about the kids" etc. The welcome in all your desired nergies, saying for example, "I bring in love" or, "I bring in connection" or, "I bring in pleasure." etc. This bubble will help you and your partner stay focused and not become distracted by outside influences.
Appreciate each other for three things each
offer your partner a small imaginary gift and ask the Divine spirit to be with you in your journey
state your desires , fear, boundaries for your time together (one each) and state your intention for your time together
