To become consciously embodied is to awaken the wild soul that sleeps wthin you and to evolve into higher states of consciousness and expanded worldviews. It means exploring non-habitual rhythms and ways of moving and responding. No matter where you dwell in the world, you must discover and liberate the wild, erotic stranger that is your body: the sacred, passionate soul that moves freely, sings loudly, and dances naked in thunderstorms. The one you are afraid to meet . . . but secretly hope to.

Yesterday, while visiting here in Rome an exhibition on hell ("Inferno"), inspired by the writings of Dante, I came across several texts and images that allude to the conscious experience of one's own spirituality in such a way that sexuality will then become a source of vitality, fantasy, and creativity, as well as a spiritual path. I fully agree with this.
