Sex and the Transcendence of Self

Why are people so obsessed with sex?
Sexual intercourse is one of the most beautiful experiences one can have. Through the communion of the sexual act, two persons can merge and disappear into one another and experience ecstatic moments of love — moments everyone is deep down thirsty for. In those moments, the mind with its countless problems ceases to exist, time stops and anything that burdens the psyche vanishes into thin air. In those moments one’s consciousness soars in sacred heights of pure bliss.
Why then, in our culture where sex is considered a priority in life, do most seem to experience no such beautiful moments? Why are people obsessed with sex, wanting to have more and more of it, without ever being satisfied? Why the constant search for more sexual gratification and the resulting experience of emotional discontentment?
In order to answer those questions, we first need to take a look at the culture we are living in how it affects the way people relate to one another…
Sex in a Culture of Alienation
With the means of advanced modern technology, it seems that we humans are more connected than ever before. The internet especially has helped us create a global communication network where in a split of a second we can share ideas and interact with others from any part of our planet. And yet it seems that we are more hungry for connection than ever before. No matter how many online “friends” or “followers” we have on social media, most feel alienated. That’s because online relationships are only skin-deep, unable to provide us with a true sense of intimacy and bonding. Text messages can’t substitute for in-person conversations, emoticons cannot substitute for body language expression, and cybersex can’t substitute for physical contact.
