A young girl is taught through the example of other women how to manipulate a man. She’s absolutely correct in doing so because the job she will get, the man she will marry, the experiences she will have, are very much dictated by her ability to do so.
As a woman experiment and observe. Observe yourself as you go through a day. You will be amazed to discover the number and variety of things you do just on the physical level to control, or at least pass without being hassled.
Consider your second attention as a spiritual perceiver. Consider how you use it. You may plead innocence. You’re not doing anything wrong. Don’t feel that you’ve sinned. You have done what you had to do to survive, as did your mother, as did your grandmother.
Review your description of the world, what it is to be a woman, and see how inadequate it is.
See how it’s a philosophy that’s been handed to you by a bunch of men who were afraid. So instead, they overcompensate with hatred and violence and repression.
Examine what you do and examine what other women do. Examine the dreams that men hold of you and how they force you in a corner, literally and figuratively.
Your very success is what’s going to destroy you. The survival mechanism that you’ve developed is the very thing which will cause the downfall of your subtle physical body.
Many women devlop the second attention, attract a great deal of sexual attention, and for many years, appear to be very vibrant and strong.
Then there will come a time where, very quickly, a woman will lose what some call her beauty.
All disease and aging occurs as the subtle physical body breaks down.
The attention that’s being projected by men who simply watch you walking down the street, in the office, or in bed, in most cases, is going to be extremely destructive.
The sexual energies returned, when they’re not evolved, are still linked with violence and the fear of power – the fear of women.
These energies when directed towards the subtle physical body cause the subtle physical body to break down, to lose its lumonisity.
If it’s not true love, then that energy will gradually wear the subtle physical down.
For men, it’s necessary to push aside that marvelous ego that tells you that you are all knowing and capable, and see that you are not.
Much of the time your attention is directed towards the world of sexuality, it’s done through the second attention of a woman – not simply in your physical presence but from thousands of miles away.
The majority of times when a man thinks he has been the instigator, which men like to think, in sexual and romantic experiences, that has not been the case.
Women have allowed you to think that, which is a part of their inaccessibility in using their second attention.
What a man must do is realize that his continued belief in the inferiority of women is going to produce a type of karma that is going to hold him back, and already has.
Men have learned the secret of unity.
