Now YOU have to be clearer, LOL!

What confuses you?
I can imagine that people that do not have a personal,
intimate relationship with "God" might not 'get it'?

Anything to do with that?
And, btw, it is nice chatting with you.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru

I think there are many points....fun may not be the point ...but it does happen.
I don't think of sex as being for the purpose of fun, per se...
but it sure can be.

So many people see meditation as a real drudge and even torture!
LOL

Since you're getting personal I'm sure you won't mind if I do the same. What I mean by confusing is that you're bursting with emotion and it's impossible to keep up ^.^

Edit:please don't misunderstand, it is nice :)

Meditation is great.. though it's not always fun. How do you see sex if not for fun (sorry for derailing but I'm interested)?

And you would be correct, my new friend.
If you think it is impossible...it will be.

It is amazingly freeing...like hatching from an EGG...
when limitations start falling away! Hey, it didn't start happening
until this past year for me! So... I get it.

Meditation practice (if you can't stop thinking or your body won't stop bugging you) may not be "fun" - but it sure gets interesting when Kundalini wakes up - that takes meditation to a whole new level.

How fascinating...'if not for fun'...
I have talked with 3 friends...
and not 20 yrs old either, divorced with grown children...and my inner mouth dropped that they
did not see the glorious representation of Divine Bliss...the
core of Reality in the Human act of love making...they saw it as 'fun'.

I bet you would find Tantric Yoga interesting.

Yes...

When that silly mind stops being distracting....you are on your way.

Well, I think I'm asexual, or something of the sort. But before my 'union' with the divine, I never was. I found it fun. Now I don't understand it at all. It doesn't feel like anything to me. So I was wondering why you'd participate in it if not for fun. What you suggest still sounds like fun in a way.. for the sake of blissful union with the Divine. But I'm already That. You know?

Seems counter to the nature of meditation. If you want fun and creative, I suggest a better tool, lucid dreaming perhaps.
