In my early years, I felt painfully split. That pain has driven me on a life-long quest to fathom the depths of both sex and spirit: to explore their many mysteries and to find where they may be connected.

Many inspiring teachers have gradually guided me to experience sex and love as vehicles to a deep connection with God, which I now understand to be the pure consciousness and love that is who we all are.
