Taoism, in its pristine roots and esoteric origins, is the authentic science of sexual alchemy. However, Taoism has degenerated, like all traditions, through the great adulterations and misinterpretations of ignorant people. Therefore it is not surprising to hear such comments, since every religion has suffered this problem.

Adultery is against the ninth commandment of Moses, one of the greatest masters to have ever assisted humanity. Polygamy cannot take one to God, as evidenced by the life of the monk Rasputin, who, despite knowing the key of scientific chastity, practiced with many women. The end result was a horrible demon. This is well documented within "The Mystery of the Golden Blossom" by Samael Aun Weor and the Akashic records.

It is true that a couple harmonizes, energizes and saturates their psycho-physical universe through transmutation. However, alchemy can never be practiced with many partners, since that violates the law of God. Adultery literally "adulterates," "mixes," or "makes impure" the creative sexual force through mixing antagonistic forces within one's psycho-sexual laboratory (mind, psyche and body). Adultery literally short-circuits the Kundalini and precipitates it downward as the abominable tail of Satan: the horrible Kundabuffer organ.

Polygamy in the scriptures is not a justification for immoral acts of sexuality within this physical plane, but symbolically refers to the innumerable interrelationships between the different parts of the Being. This is a Kabbalistic principle.

The mind, seeking to deify itself, has transformed the authentic science into a playground for clowns, to paraphrase some words by Samael Aun Weor. Once you know the science of the superlative consciousness and the Being, it is easier to approach any tradition in order to extract what is most useful and what is useless, especially within Taoism.
