Intimacy is one of the most elementary human needs. Its shortage deteriorates, its wealth nourishes human soul. One of the most beautiful expression of intimacy is when two people embrace each other. This wonderful human gesture is a store of great secrets. What are the secrets of embrace? Embrace has a smaller and a greater secret.
The Small Secret of Embrace
The small secret of embrace is that it has a wide range of positive physiological and psychological effects. For instance, it increases trust and confidence, it reduces anxiety, fear, and pain, and alleviates the aftermath of stress.
An embrace means closeness and warmth in human relations, it is the most intimate expression of love. An embrace reinforces connections, it affords a sense of safety and improves the intensity of two people’s sense of belonging together. An embrace is a form of communication, with it we may express things that we are not able to put into words.
An embrace provides us with the an exceptionally intensive sense of belonging to another person. It is not possible to generate the same emotion in any other way. An embrace tranquilizes the soul and, for a few moments, is able to make us forget the things and problems around us.
An Embrace as a Gateway
In an embrace, our whole body is permeated by currents of energy, giving us a fine, pleasant feeling. This energy is love. In the embrace, in this current of love, a gateway opens up. Through the gate, some of our original state of existence shines through. This is the great secret of embrace.
Our original state of existence is a state in which Consciousness is not identified with forms and shapes. This state of theConsciousness is Life itself, the state of Oneness, and empty space filled up completely with the vibrating energy of love that encompasses everything else.
