This is mostly a how-to manual for those who wish to rediscover lovemaking. Lovemaking, after all,is cultural.

The ancient Polynesians had a wonderful and wise culture surrouning sex that allowed them to enjoy it in a deeply relaxing and unifying way. It is said that the spirits of the ancesters would gather around a long union in order to experience its deep peace.

To open up to deeper levels of sexual union, we need to give up many of the assumptions we have about love. Then we can begin to discover a completely different way of loving that the one we have learned from our culture.]]>
