What do people think when they see a husband and wife in an intimate embrace? Some think of carnal thoughts and smirk. Others think in a similar vein but put on a warm smile. The former thinks of something lewd, the latter thinks of something spiritually fulfilling. Why the difference?

Because when soul mates perform acts of love, many realize they are performing acts of holy intimacy. We can rise to a higher level at these times. When we complete such acts of love, we may feel at one with our mate and the world around us. This can be the highest level of spiritual feeling one can achieve.

In the Bible there is a chapter titled “The Song of Songs”. It depicts a man’s love for a woman. These writings are deliciously sensual and contain descriptions which may seem unlike holy writings. In fact, ‘The Song of Songs” can be seen as the holiest of writings. It’s all a matter of your perspective.
