Eros Ascending: The Life-Transforming Power of Sacred Sexuality

For those of us who have read everything and know what a privilege it is to share and learn about esoteric knowledge this book is your next MUST. Its sacred sexuality as a path to liberation. It will push your boundaries and you will enter the possibility of a new realm of being: physical, sexual, emotional, spiritual, psychological, and intellectual. It's a book written for modern MEN and WOMEN, bravo, and it brings together the dilemma for the seeker the integration of our innate drives for sexuality, creativity and evolution of consciousness. Ultimately it is a treatise on love: romantic, ecstatic and universal; it's in our hands. It's a long, slow, luxurious read, just like love and making love should be! May all beings be happy, and with Mr. Taylor's guidance we surely will.

A wonderful book for anyone who is ready to view relationships on a soul level, as a gateway to Onennes and the divine and learn more about sacred sexuality/the orgasmic nature of existence. I have recently picked it up again, it makes all have so much more sense!

I have read stacks of book in the area of sacred sexuality and conscious relationships but by FAR this is the best one I have gotten a hold of.

Love this author and his writing! Met him at Unity of Wilmington, in 2014, and it shifted the entire course of my life! ❤

As someone just starting to study Tantra and Taoism, I cannot say enough about the excellence of this book. While it is lengthy, its layout in short sub-chapters made it easy to read as time permitted.

I highly recommend Eros Ascending to everyone seeking to learn more about Tantra. I fell in love with this book the moment I saw it and read it from cover to cover. It is full of profound information relevant to the REAL TANTRA - at least as I see it - as something that weaves together mind, heart, body, spirit, and energy, starting with one's own body mind system.John Maxwell Taylor gives us the maps we need to start with our own systems and work our way outwards to make exquisite love to another, as well as to the world around us. He defines sexual energy as the true transformative life force energy. I am so thrilled to see a work on sex and eros that is so all-encompassing in scope... daring... and even wildly entertaining. This book is riveting. You will learn learn so much more about your true potential for sex, life, love, transformation, and transmutation of your life force energy.Eros Ascending has gotten incredible reviews from many of the really important people in the Tantra field. This is why. It's a beautiful, moving and remarkable transmission.

Expertly written through his personal experience and scholarly research, John Maxwell Taylor's Eros Ascending enlightens its readers on the spiritual purpose and practice of sexuality, alone and in partnership. It reads like listening to a highly intelligent, loving, and entertaining friend, and lays to rest the guilt and misunderstanding of the true function of sexual energy for us in the 21st century. An invaluable, practical guidebook for connecting with one's True Self in conjunction with conscious sexual practice.

The best book on spiritual sex that I have read, and not only for reading but for studying about the topic.

Okay read. A little meandering and some outdated references.
