Sex is not just an act. It is a ritual.
Not affection, not desire, not even love. It is fusion - ontological, and also irreversible. A moment when two Selves join into one. That is why sex has never been casual. Eros, at its core, is Ontic and dangerous.
What we once called “marriage” was never just a ceremony or a paper. It was a vessel to contain a psychological fusion: sex joins what cannot easily be un-joined. The ritual mattered not for God or society, but because it reshaped the Soul. You cannot enter and leave another’s body without consequence. You give a piece of your Self away - and it doesn’t return.
Modernity thinks sex belongs to the Self. But freedom without Ontology is unstable. So people fracture - bed to bed, Self to Self - re-enacting sacred rituals without meaning. The exchange still happens - they feel it as flesh and emotion - but it evaporates a piece of them, spends it, without containment or preservation.
Then they wonder why they break and can't mate anymore. Why love fades. Why the Self loses shape.
Too many fusions, and the vessel fractures. Too many partial deaths, and the psyche evaporates into smoke.
Chastity is not purity. It’s preservation. Not repression, but refusal to waste your limited psychic integrity outside of a form that would contain it. Every bond leaves a mark. The fewer you’ve made, the more you're still able to. First love is powerful not because it’s sweet, but because the soul is whole - it still has a lot to give.
Casual sex fails not because it feels bad - but because it removes weight of your Soul. Like lighting a fire but no embers remain. The act is still sacred. But the world has forgotten how to hold it in place.
This is the cost of forgetting the Self.
Sex was never meant to entertain. It was meant to remake/wound/transfigure you. And it still does.
Whether you care or not - it doesn’t ask. It just does. And one who has been transfigured too much does not feel human anymore.
