I dont follow one specific religion, but, have allot of experience with the Nyingma branch of Tibetan Buddhism, which falls into the Mahayana camp - allot more open and less conservative then the Theuravada or Hinayana camp you see from places like Sri Lanka, Thailand, Campbodia.
Also, I followed Nicheren Buddhism, which is from Japan, but still in the Mahayana camp, as with Tibetan, but they both offer a different slant on the Buddhas teachings.
I've also experience with spiritualism, in seances, and seen, heard spirit many times in my life.
I understand, and follow some of the Pagan ways, who respected the Earth, and nature, like the Shamans, and Druids.
I meditate regularly, read sutras, recite mantras, and offer healing from distance, as well as in the past, working with spirit guides.
In none of these ways, does it say don't have sex. I have chose not to bother, as I find it easier for me, to lead the single lifestlye rather then the need to have a partner because its the 'in' thing, or that one should have a partner, or sex to remain sane ... its complete rubbish, you don't need it.
Masturbation in moderation, say twice a week is ample.
I wouldn't say I was rigid with it either, its my choice, not really based on my spiritual path, but my own decision.
All that fucking different women, bragging about it, what is it really? all about the ego, and its worth NOTHING without true love. When you do love a woman, or a man, and you make love to them, both of you are in love, then that is sacred ... its true, but this is something I'm not looking for, it will come when the time is right, and that person is ready to enter into my life.
I wouldn't say PE has made me anymore spiritual, if anything, my life experiences have steered me more this way.
Many, if not most people these days, never live in the moment ... they are either in the past, or way ahead in the future ... they don't know their own minds, and believe allot of what they see in the paper, news, or hear on the radio ... folk dont have strong awareness of whats going on inside them, when to tell they are getting emotional, when they need to take action.
I rather be like this, and work on my path towards apotheosis, then spend it having meaningless sex, with meaningless encounters.
