Summary of david deida's intimate communion

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The book is for men and women who are turned on by sex, love, and true spiritual ecstasy. It is for people who enjoy tangled bodies, open hearts, and enlightened minds. If you are not delighted by a style of intimacy involving deep passion, deep devotion, and deep understanding, then this book is not for you. #2 While efforts toward social and economic equality between men and women have been necessary and beneficial, we have also suffered an unplanned side-effect: Men and women have become more and more sexually neutralized, unable to give each other what they really want in intimacy. #3 To grow in the three stages of intimacy, we must come to terms with our deepest desires to give and receive our sexual, emotional, and spiritual gifts. We may find that we are hiding some of our real desires, thinking they are unfair or taboo. #4 The ultimate pleasure in intimacy is not to be found in any specific person, and it is not found in a carefully arranged 50/50 relationship with a safe man or woman. It is found in the process of open-hearted surrender, of being overwhelmed in love.
