Here Feuerstein Holy Madness 1991 tackles the spiritual potential of sexcomparing and contrasting motifs and practices from neolithic to neopagan times to conclude that we need to reconnect with the ancient experience of the energy of sex Our civilization encourages us to neglect the lived body even to ignore and deprecate it writes Feuerstein This dovetails with the Christian ideology that the body is corrupt and that we must therefore place our attention on the Eternal the paradise beyond the finite human body and its concerns Feuerstein contrasts our disembodied guiltfilled state with neolithic Goddess cults that purportedly encouragedand worshippeda magically potent boundlessly creative female sexuality Later in human history he says the spiritual power of sexuality was ritually enacted as the coupling of a god and a goddesswhich evolved into the secret rites of Tantra With the rise of the phallocracy of Greece however the lusty feminine part of the equation was according to the author lostand with the triumph of Christianity the essential experience of sex as sacred energy was utterly crushed in the West Feuerstein takes heart in the magicalfeminist neopagan movement and other body positive efforts but argues that an expansive vision of the divine in the ordinary is necessary to restore us fully to our senses Only then he says can we experience sex as a vehicle of sacramental transcendence An innovative treatment muddied slightly by Feuersteins slack writing style and tendency to overstatement Illustrations Copyright 1992 Kirkus Associates LP All rights reserved
