Semen retention is a beautiful practice—one with the potential to enhance every area of a man’s life: material, spiritual, and, yes, sexual.

All spiritual traditions of consequence recognize this, though they may speak in symbols. From the Daoist Golden Age – where “all men lived in harmony with nature and transmuted their energy as naturally as you or I draw breath” – to the esoteric heart of the early church, silenced by those who claimed to inherit Christ.

Each point toward a human sexuality that is both far more and far less than what has saturated the modern zeitgeist.

This is not a manifesto. It is a trace of my evolution—a path I share for those who struggled as I once did to break old ways of being and become something more.
