Ecstasy

  • does not in any way belong to the spiritual level; instead belongs to the instinctual and emotional level and does not touch upon higher realms through the unconscious; the experience of ecstasy is then inevitably pulled back to the body through instinctual thinking where it is discharged in an emotional-sexual experience.
  • any ecstasy is wasted time for continuous emotional development (not to mention spiritual endeavors).
