Body, Mind, Soul

There are two situations when two individuals are so close that they become one.
The first one is, naturally, the birth and nursing. A child is flesh and blood of a mother and the nursing time is when the connection is once again established, even after becoming two individuals. But this relationship is one of dependency. The child is completely dependent and later, on growing up, has no memory of those moments.
The second situation, is the most unique, and the first relationship ever established between two individuals.
It is the act of mating. It's the unity of two consenting adults, committed and in love. In the act of coupling, two individuals can be as close as possible. When this act is done with consent, with an adult, in love, then the moment of climax is actually a moment of bliss in which the individuals experience the feeling of utter completeness. Nothing else matters in that moment, except a sense of fulfillment. That moment is so intense, so profound and the feeling so beyond words that people go to extremes trying to achieve that blissful feeling.

From the beginning, the pursuit of that joyful moment has driven people. Some call it love, some satisfaction. It's a feeling everyone wants in their lives, but often fail to understand its true complicated nature. The most obvious gratifying nature is physical. The achievement of pure physical joy. To many that is enough. Hence, at times, crimes take place and illegal means are used. For some, it's a means to reproduction. In that case, the physical pleasure is taken as an added bonus. In both scenarios, the focus is more on personal gratification.

We humans are not merely flesh and muscles. We are a combination of body, mind and soul. The physical pleasure turns to bliss when all three variables, mind, body and soul of both adults mate in the moment. The concept is so perfect and pure that certain cults are based on the mere concept of that but unfortunately they miss the point. It's not a cult. It's pure love. Love demands unity of body, mind and soul. If you take any of the variables away, then the joy is incomplete and a void is felt. The couple still enjoy the rest of the variables but cannot achieve the total blissful satisfaction.
