Hello everyone,

I suppose I am writing this to hopefully hear from others that this normal and will pass.

I have been an excitable guy my whole life, and looking at porn would most definitely get me erect every time. A few days ago though, I had this huge cleansing of presumably by Swadhistana, and it felt and looked like a fountain of love and light bubbling away a particular, black, ovtupus type thing. I felt fantastic anyway, and I still feel very cleansed and much more free in my body over there.

But.. I met this wonderful girl a day or two afterwards, and we ended up in bed. To my amazement no erection. I was totally attracted to her, and totally lost for words. No real anxiety at all, and she was great about it, but wow, disappointing as a man.

I know with age this is possible, but I an 24, and a week ago a picture of girl in a bikini could get me going if my mind went thete.

Then, since I Thailand, I got a dose of Viagra. Long story short, 100mg did absolutely nothing! Not a twitch. I had a pretty big temperature hike, especially noticeably at the forehead, and I felt almost drunk too.

I don't know, to me, it almost seems like something very deep has switched off. I have been doing a lot of kechari mudra, maybe the energy can only make its way up through a path that is not related to an excited penis? I have read that kundalini practices can cause an overload of sexuality, but not this.

Has anybody had a similar experience at some stage in their kriya? I am really hoping it will pass.. soon. I will never be disappointed at a cleansing experience like this one, as they are hard to come by, but boy, a man doesn't feel good being limp.

I hope this topic is fine on this sub forum.

Any words of wisdom, any input, or just any experiences of your own are very welcome.

Time will tell, Gerhard. You seem to be certain the purification is directly related to this disfunction, as it probably is. Purification feeds off your sexual essence, so the event may have "diverted resources", if you will. Over time yoga, and age, will lessen 'external desire' to a certain extent, and it is also possible 'performance pressure' may have contributed in this instance. My guess is it is a temporary set back. The fact she was nonplused is terrific, and a good opportunity to talk with her about your yoga practice and how it could have affected you, and an opportunity to investigate together whether or not it is something to worry about in the long term.
