The Tao of Health, Sex and Life in Pattaya Part II

 

Nowhere on the face of the planet could a more complete field study be done on the effect and significance of sexual relations between men and women than in Pattaya. The subject is a touchy one for a main-stream publication such as the Pattaya Traveller but I will try to proceed with care using Chinese literature and the philosophy of Tao as a perfect excuse for any literary blunders or unintentional gender insult.

 

Referring to the subject of last month’s issue, that of chee or life force or essence, we find that those, who through abstinence or controlled sexual release or in some cases marriage (I have one friend who states that in 15 yrs. of marriage he averages about 1 sexual experience a month) tend to be more balanced physically, mentally, emotionally than their sexually active counterparts. But wait….! There’s good news! This doesn’t mean that we need to necessarily be abstinent or refrain from sexual activity. It may however allow us to experience more of it and in a good way if we understand what is healthy for all concerned. Here in pattaya of course there are plenty of other concerns regarding sex and it’s never wise to think the taboo subject of disease because of it seldom being discussed doesn’t exist. STD’s run rampant in Pattaya and it’s not just the usual strains of gonorrhea and Syph but also those nasty little urinary tract infections that go sometimes unnoticed that can create problems down the road either with your intimate friends back in England or your prostate in later years. Fact is, it’s a perfectly normal thing for a man to think directly or indirectly about sex every 4 -5 minutes a day (unless you are watching a World Cup).

 

An anonymous Chinese poet once wrote: We enter this world through the portals of the Jade Gate, and once born we seek forever to return. This eternal truth holds a message: That a man’s joy and vigor come from the same place as his creation.

 

The Chinese believe that Yin (female) is more superior to Yang (male) sexually. Simply put, this is due in part to the fact that a woman retains her sexual secretions during intercourse whereas an untrained man does not. One fact that substantiates this superiority is that out of the millions of sperms cells seeking to fertilize just one egg in wait only one of the fittest of cells succeeds. Of course, another more obvious substantiation comes from those lifeless faces of the punters coming here on holiday who cannot get enough of a good thing and spend all of their energy doing gorging themselves at the buffet table. The same is true incidentally of those who practice sexual release without the aid of a partner. The following Chinese passage sums up the importance of retaining sexual energy: One cannot manage the myriad matters of Heaven and Earth unless one stores up energy. Storing energy means absorbing essence. Absorbing essence doubles ones power. In doubling ones power one acquires a strength that nothing can overcome.


Tao The Ching

 

But…where do we find the balance you might ask? I didn’t come to Pattaya to become a monk. This for me has always been the 1 million Baht question. I’ve looked at the options: Abstinence, Control and Marriage and the only one that seems to make sense for me is Sexual Control. From a pragmatic standpoint, if let’s say in the case of money being exchanged for service and if we also say that Chinese Philosophy is correct and many believe it is, then I would rather like to be coming away from an experience feeling empowered and energetic not drained. It seems that most times guys are hooked into a self-belief that release is the goal. What if it was the other way around? That is, if the sexual experience allowed you to retain your secretions completely satisfying your partner and you walked away feeling energetic rather than drained and listless. Hmm…

 

Again to quote a paragraph from the previously mentioned book: Throughout our adult lives, our sexual organs and hormones exert a profound and decisive influence on thought and behavior. They literally “drive” men and women into each other’s arms in order to insure the propagation of the species and this drive is so powerful that it completely overrides the instinct for safety and personal survival. (Take the guy who falls for the married woman).

 

There are stories in China about Taoist recluses who come down from their mountain once or twice a year, a bit like the guys who come to Pattaya on holiday from their frigid climate (read – seldom have sex) to take their earnings to the nearest brothel and hire out the entire household of women for the night. One by one they would work their way from girl to girl continuing tirelessly all night until they had drawn an orgasm or two from each and every one without ever spilling a drop of semen themselves. Some of these men I understand lived to be healthy and aged gracefully with vigor well past the century mark.

 

Single man’s motto:

Support a Local Country Girl and Her Family and Give Her an Experience She’ll Never Forget.

Chances are you’ll live longer and will project a youthful smile.

Make sure you tell her Pattaya Pete sent you J
