COMES OUT OF.
YES, YOU ARE RIGHT. I SEEK GOD MANIFESTING IN THE SAINTS OF ALL
RELIGIONS, EAST AND WEST. I HAVE CHRISTIAN AND YOGA SAINTS THAT I AM
EXTREMELY CLOSE TO AND I AM OPEN TO SAINTS OF ANY RELIGION.
ABOUT CELIBACY.
I TOOK MY VOW OF CELIBACY FORMALLY TO OUR HOLY MOTHER ON MY KNEES ON
MAY 27, 1978. PRIOR TO THAT I HAD TRIED TO PRACTICE IT, ON AND OFF,
FOR YEARS, BUT NEVER PERMANENTLY.
THEN ONE DAY AFTER I PRAYED THIS PRAYER:
'MOTHER, I WOULD LIKE YOU TO BE THE MOTHER OF MY BODY AS WELL AS MY
SOUL,'
THE ROOM FILLED WITH BLUE LIGHT AND OUT OF THAT LIGHT CAME HER VOICE,
'I WANT YOU TO STOP HAVING SEX WITH MEN.'
I WAS SHOCKED, ALTHOUGH I HAD PRAYED FOR THIS. I TOLD HER I WOULD
THINK ABOUT IT. I THOUGHT FOR FIVE DAYS, IN DISTRESS. I VACILLATED. ON
THE FIFTH DAY MY INNER VOICE PROCLAIMED LOUDLY,
'IF YOU DON'T DO THIS, YOU WILL ALWAYS KNOW YOU WERE A COWARD.'
THAT NIGHT I TOOK MY VOW. SHE GAVE ME THE GRACE TO KEEP IT.
CELIBACY IS A MANY YEAR PROJECT. TO QUIT THE DESIRE FOR SEX IS THE
GOAL, SO THAT YOU ARE RID OF THE TORTURE/TORMENT OF SEXUAL DESIRE. THE
FIRST FEW YEARS WERE THE MOST DIFFICULT. MY INTENSTINES BECAME
PARALYZED FOR SIX YEARS.
I NOTICED THAT BY 1990 I WOULD SAY MOST OF MY SEX DRIVE WAS GONE. AT
THAT POINT GOD SAID TO ME FROM WITHIN,
'YOU CAN HAVE SEX AGAIN IF YOU WISH.'
I THOUGHT ABOUT IT FOR WEEKS AND FELT TORMENT. FINALLY I SAID,
'I DON'T WANT TO.'
YOU SEE, SEX BRINGS ADDICTION, SEX BRINGS EMOTIONAL TORMENT, AND SEX
DRAGS A PERSON DOWN INTO THE FLESH. SO YOU NO LONGER SEE YOUR LIFE
OBJECTIVELY BUT THROUGH THE PRISM OR LENS OF A DESIRE. CERTAINLY
ENTERING INTO THE FRAY OF SEX DOES CAUSE MUCH COMPLICATIONS. I DID NOT
WANT THAT, I DID NOT WANT THIS DESIRE FLOWING THROUGH MY VEINS.
THE PURPOSE OF CELIBACY IS TO GET RID OF THE SEX DRIVE AND THE
PROBLEMS IT BRINGS, AND THE FACT THAT SEX DESIRE CAN INTERFERE WITH
THE RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD.
AND THAT IS HOW IT HAS BEEN EVER SINCE. DO I NEVER FEEL DESIRE? LUST
CAN BE A DEMON. RECENTLY MY FRIEND POSTED SOME EROTIC PHOTOS OF NUDE
MEN ON ONE OF MY GROUPS. THEY WERE REALLY ATTRACTIVE. THE NEXT THING I
NOW, I AM TORTURED BY LUST. I HATED IT. I DID NOT GIVE IN TO IT IN ANY
MANNER. FINALLY, LAST NIGHT I SAW IT WAS A DEMON. SENT FROM HELL BY MY
FIRST HUSBAND STANLEY, WHO IS IN HELL. I BELIEVE I AM RID OF THE DEMON
NOW. THERE IS SUCH A THING AS 'DEMON OF LUST.' IT IS AS EVIL AS ANY
OTHER DEMON THERE IS.
THAT IS THE STORY OF MY CELBACY.
I NEVER SAID SEX IS EVIL, BUT IT CAN BRING EVIL INTO A PERSON'S LIFE.
AND CERTAINLY, IF ONE WANTS TO SEE GOD FACE TO FACE, THEY CANNOT BE
ATTACHED TO ANYTHING OF THE FLESH.
THE IDEA OF THE NUDITY AND BEAUTY ON MY SITE AND GROUPS IS TO SEE THE
HUMAN BODY AS THE CREATION OF GOD, AND IT IS SACRED. MICHAELANGELO,
FOR HIS DAY, WAS THE ULTIMATE IN SEX APPEAL...... IF NUDITY IS IN THE
SISTINE CHAPEL, WHY IS IT WRONG ON MY CHURCH SITE? PEOPLE DO GET A BIT
HYSTERICAL AT THE MIX OF NUDITY AND SPIRITUALITY, BUT THEY DO BELONG
TOGETHER IF IT IS ARTISTIC AND BEAUTIFUL - CERTAINLY ALL OF CREATION,
IN ITS NATURAL GLORY, IS GOD. IT'S HOW YOU LOOK AT IT, AND IT MUST BE
DISPLAYED TASTEFULLY.
IT IS PATRIARCHY THAT PUT THE STIGMA ON NUDITY AND SEX, IN ORDER TO
CONTROL PEOPLE'S (MOSTLY WOMEN'S) BEHAVIOR. IN MATRIARCHY, NUDITY AND
SEX WERE ACCEPTED AS NATURAL AND MORALLY INNOCENT PARTS OF LIFE.
MUCH LOVE, RASA

Subject: [MotherGod] Appreciation
Hello friends of God and friends of Rasa, dear Rasa,
I want to thank Rasa and express my appreciation again for the
amazing work she is doing. I don't know how anyone can do that much
every day. Being a member of more than 600 groups seems
incomprehensible to me.
I have tried to share some of my thoughts at this group and I am
still impressed about the seriousness of Rasa to talk about God, to
strengthen our relationship to the divine. What amazes me is the
fact that she does not seem to care where new insights come from,
from the east (Buddhist and Hindu traditions) or even from American
revivalist preachers and faith healers like Aimee Semple Mc Pherson
and William Branham (a male!). She just is trying to find out what
seems to nurture & strengthen true fellowship with God / Mother God
and what is leading her on in her knowledge about and her devotion
to God.
I have not yet had the opportunity to express my appreciation for
the gallery on her website. The beauty of the women portrayed is
awesome (I have my favourites, of course) and they open in my heart
the desire to be connected to the God who created such mysterious
beauty.
Now I want to ask a question to Rasa:
Rasa, I know that you have decided to live as a celibate, but you
seem to enjoy beautiful people. What do you do with erotic feelings?
What exactly do you mean by living celibate? What does it include?
I am looking forward to your answer
With love and respect
Achim
