Ayurveda is an esoteric science in so far as disease is seen as the result of metabolic toxins the body has been unable to digest. The God-given natural body itself is “pure” and balanced, it is the pollution from un-assimilated “world” energy which causes all disease or imbalance. All disease is the result of hampered metabolic processes- which weaken tissue as the body is unable to “digest” toxins which consequently invade deeper into the body.
Each substratum or layer of the body (In Ayurveda there are 7 Dhatus or tissue layers which correspond respectively to- Plasma, Blood, Muscle, Adipose Fat, Bone, Bone marrow/nerves, and reproductive tissue) has its own “fire” or metabolism, however if the person is constantly operating from a stressed or pressurized state, the metabolism becomes more and more stunted by invading dosas (each emotion corresponds to dosas) and the body becomes unable to assimilate or digest food or emotional experiences at the tissue level.
I started to understand that conventional sex, based on pursuit of climax, does not make the body feel safe or relaxed enough for the metabolic process to “activate” at the gut, tissue or cellular level.
In Ayurveda as well as modern medicine, it is clear that if you are nervous or scared, the Enteric nervous system in your gut “shuts down”. Similarly, conventional sex, being based on excitement, arousal, and pursuit of orgasm, makes the body tense and excitable, and this shuts down the metabolic process and vital functions of the Enteric nervous system. The true purpose of the sexual exchange, the vital “nutrition” both partners receive from each other especially through the electro-magnetic fields of the two bodies, is unable to be received into the body because instead of being porous, the body becomes shut down, tough, and energetically cemented. Pursuit of an ejaculation or orgasm is actually interpreted by the body as a “survival mechanism”, so it de-activates vital metabolic processes. Whatever surface-level information is exchanged, is unable to be assimilated or integrated properly because the metabolic processes are hampered while the exchange is happening.
Karezza is a form of meditative, relaxed intercourse with long periods of stillness, with no resultant ejaculation/climax for both partners. Karezza slowly “warms up” the bodies from the inside-out. Instead of shutting down vital functions which only operate in states of deep relaxation, karezza enables these to function deeper, more seamlessly. Partners do not condition each other to operate in a tense, pressurized manner in the place where the deepest intimacy is possible (sex), but rather nurture each other and enable the processing of unconscious emotional residue (pain) accumulated throughout life, as well as restore health back to each other as the metabolic processes are restored from the cellular level.
Karezza enables partners to become more radiant, luminous, nourished from the inside-out, to slowly become angelic and divinely serene, as the body becomes purified from the enkindled fire or metabolism within.
