The human spirit is nurtured by praise, as much as a seedling is nurtured by the soil, the water and the sun.
To my understanding, sex is your only energy, it is life energy. What you do with it depends on you. It can become sin, and it can become also your highest peak of consciousness. It all depends on you how you use the energy.
