Human beings don't really use the sexual energy for intelligent purposes. They just use it to experience sensations that's it.
The very typical situation is that when the sexual centre is aroused (intentionally or unintentionally), the sexual energy becomes active and the person feels the different sensations and emotions that arise. The emotions mostly come from our psychology through interpreting the sensations and superimposing (usually egoic) thought and emotion over these interpretations that then feedback to the sexual centre provoking more intense sensation and feeling etc. Then that is it, the person just stays there. Burning or consuming energy and not experiencing much other than sensations and emotions to no real useful intelligent end.
This is an instinctive or animal use, sort of like a brute unintelligent cave-man use of the sexual energy. One ends up in a vicious circle this way. A bit like a drug user junkie mentality.
In such a mentality one drives towards more sensation and then overexcites and overloads the circuit resulting in the energy being lost or if not, doing a disservice to the sexual centre and then when this loss is felt, an instinctive effort to get back what was lost appears in the way of desire, and even the desire increases and so on and so on to drive towards the same again. One then gets stuck in a unhappy circle of desire, that can become unhealthy and spiral out of control if nothing is done about it.
Actually this is how infra-sexuality begins. When the instinctive desire enters the mind and multiplies taking on various diversions searching for new sensations and new ways of experiencing sensations.
There also exists an intelligent use for the sexual energy! For this we have to have a higher goal or ideal alive within us to really make use of it. No higher goal or ideal or use, equals entropy, in order words slippage back into the unhappy circle.
With a very firm and clear higher goal or ideal, we can intelligently direct the aroused sexual energy into progressing that higher goal or ideal. That is voluntarily and intelligently take that energy for the goal or ideal.
That is take it and invest it in or give it to our consciousness to awaken, or our Divine Mother to help us to die in any painful and bothersome ego, give it to our brain to make us smarter, give it to our heart to make us stronger and nobler of heart or give it to the chakras, or give it to our eyes to make us to see better, or give it to our inner Being to enliven and strengthen the Being in us. Give it to any goal that you want, rather than just fall into the brute unintelligent cave-man junkie use of it.
End (4016).
