About This Book

The author offers a spiritual and esoteric interpretation of sexual energy, arguing it is a universal creative principle and tracing its symbolic and ritual expressions from ancient religion to modern marriage. Chapters examine the inner sex-function versus physical expression, the symbolism of the serpent, swastika, and wedding rites, the history of mating customs, and the alleged cosmic causes of contemporary sexual conditions. The text critiques materialistic remedies such as eugenics, emphasizes the role of the female principle in evolution, and outlines practices for self-control and sexual transmutation presented as means to improve personal relationships and social morality.
