I understand that this spirituality should be in connection to S/M-BDSM-D/S in a way (?), ok.
Instead of my usual approach I'll go a different way this time and set a personal example. A quote from one of my posts on the "place of sex in D/S-BDSM"-Thread, which was there (ment to be a truly warm) reply to FF (unfortunatly over all the rest on that thread it was never replied to)...
Now, this goes really back to a personal experience some years ago.
I had been bound spread-eagled, naked, blindfolded and with earplugs in and been left there alone for a long time (don't know how many hours?). And despite the fact, that this was in a setting somehow connected to sex / sexuality(I didn't know what would be next, the Lady of my heart could return any minute - I wouldn't know what she'd wanna do if she'd reappear, fuck me, ride me, sit on my face, whip me or... you name it), something else happened. First of all the Lady of my heart just did not show up. Secondly I was loosing any feeling for time. I was freezing and also started to seriously worry some when I realized that my blood pressure seemed to fall very low and blood circulation sort of started dipping away. I concetrated on that in an attempt to control it. First in a way like "DO NOT HYPERVENTILATE NOW - JUST DON'T!! RELAX!! But it got worse and worse anyway and I was even shivering ("CALM DOWN NOW! - DON'T MAKE IT WORSE!! - JUST DON'T!! ABSOLUTELY DO NOT MAKE IT WORSE AND DO NOT LOSE CONSCIOUSNESS!!!!"). Then, while not having lost consiousness, I seemingly controled the physical problems or, that is, they stopped to matter. I was carried away into a differnt state of consciousness, which is hard to discribe, so I have put it into sort of lyrical words / poem, which reflects this experience. That was what I posted (replying to FF on that other thread), here it is:
...
And yet I've had very deep submissive moments!
Moments, session, whatever, that did carry me over... some strange sea that had no sexuality in it at all!
It was like DEEP MEDITATION!
DEEP MEDITATION!
I saw Mountains fading, Stars climbing off Time and I was drawn into them, away from Light and yet Darkness ceased.
There was no existence and yet all of it in ONE Moment!
It was beautiful - colors unseen, sounds unheard!
I could smell the Morning of Dawn!
Eva set next to my Father, teasing.
Adam gave Flowers to my Mom, seriously, pretending!
Next they were all gone and I kept flying...
faster and faster, screams beneath
the rhythm of humdrums
monotonous
a devil who wants to wake me

Now to me this seemed a spiritual experience - one I don't want to miss, also.
And for categorization: I may have been able to live without it, true, but its certainly better to having had that!
And to woodman'sgame: Here you go... seperation from flesh / or hinderence through the flesh...
nice to have this thread - goodie!
