FOREPLAY
The book before you is a guide in the sense that it will escort you on
a journey.
The route we will be taking passes through vistas of strange beauty
and across perilous chasms. It is known as the left-hand path. Few have
traveled this road, and fewer still have reached its final, distant destination.
Unfortunately, most previously available maps of this mysterious
terrain have been drafted by those who have never even stepped upon the
path. Yet they'll warn you of the terrible dangers confronted along the way,
suggesting that its arduous passage only leads to the darkest of dead-ends.
Such faulty cartographers will caution you that the only souls to be
encountered on this ill-lit thoroughfare are fools, lunatics, scoundrels, and
thieves. (Indeed, there may be some truth to that last admonition, but the born
adventurer will not be dissuaded so easily.)
There are other maps, offered by slightly less timid souls, that bear a
closer semblance to reality. However, these guides breezily point out only the
most comforting tourist attractions on the sight-seeing itinerary. All dark
alleys, disreputable neighborhoods, and red light districts are kept safely out
of view, deemed unfit for public consumption. Such squeamishness permits
the explorer only a carefully expurgated outlook. Furthermore, the
specifications found on this sort of map are frequently so convoluted that the
traveler doesn't know which end is up.
Finally, there's the map drafted by those who declare themselves not
only as tour guides, but proudly lay claim to this left-turning way in its
entirety, hailing it as the very best place to be. However, should the unwary
wayfarer consult such maps for even the simplest directions, it immediately
becomes apparent that there's been some confusion. This mix-up, it seems, is
due to a simple but enduring misappropriation of nomenclature. The area on
these maps marked so conspicuously as "the left-hand path" turns out, on
closer inspection, to be a different path altogether.
Demons Of The Flesh, designed in part as a corrective to the false
leads and detours described above, charts this hitherto misinterpreted path
from a very different perspective. On our map, we clearly show you the
complete road plan in all of its three-dimensional topography and
complexity, starting from its remote ancient Eastern point of origination. We
have also broken beneath the visible surface of this causeway to reveal the
hidden archeological layers of the sinister current as it has coursed through
time. Accompanying you through this voyage, we provide practical
suggestions for navigating the leftward road in a contemporary Western
world that provides no reliable compass.

But enough metaphors about maps and paths. Let's face it, you
picked this book up to read about sex.
And there's certainly plenty of sex to be found in these pages,
chronicling an infinite diversity of erotic experience. From the alchemy of
menstrual blood and semen to the ritual worship of the vagina. Sex with
promiscuous monks and sacred whores, from Tibet to Babylon. Necrophiliac
sex in cremation grounds. Coprophiliac sex in Sicily. Incestuous sex in India.
Vampiric sex in China. The orgasm as sacrifice. The orgasm prolonged. Sex
with Goddesses. Psychic transexualism. Sex with disembodied beings.
Sexual slavery. Sexual mastery. Sexual trance. Ancient Egyptian anal sex
between Set and his nephew Horus. Oral sex. Autoerotic sex. Group sex.
Telepathic sex. All kinds of sex sects. Tantric sex. Gnostic sex. Satanic sex.
Sex with young virgins. Sex with the elderly. Sex with the wives of other
men. Even sex with Jesus.
However, the multi-bodied panorama of polymorphous delight that
seeps from this book is not presented merely to stimulate the jaded or titillate
ennuyé voluptuaries with novel deviations they have yet to try out. It's
important to establish that there is a significant difference between the
profound pleasure of sexuality enjoyed for its own sake as a physiological
and aesthetic experience, and sexuality utilized for authentic magical or
initiatory purposes – the nucleus of the left-hand path. Taken out of their
proper context, the outwardly salacious tidbits pressed between these pages
can – and probably will – be misinterpreted if this distinction is not taken into
account.
At the same time, it must be pointed out that the whole topic of
sexual magic has been hedged about with a tremendous amount of hypocrisy,
emanating both from practicing sex magicians and those merely observing
their activities. For instance, many a curiosity-seeker has casually poked
around the most superficial level of erotic magic, hoping to learn a few sex
tips to spice up a lackluster love life. For the most part, this misguided
playing at sex magic is merely a waste of time, generating little in the way of
physical excitement, and absolutely nothing in the way of magic. But some
self-righteous sex magicians have taken the school-marmish position that this
fairly common phenomenon is "immoral" or "spiritually harmful", or even
that sex magic must be performed without a scintilla of lust or emotion to be
legitimate. Conversely, the non-magician may snicker at the whole idea of
erotic magic, dismissing it as some sort of dirty joke, refusing to accept that
sex magicians are doing anything more profound than satiating their ordinary
carnal appetites under the guise of esoteric doctrine.
Behind these sanctimonious attitudes lays the horrific banality to
which Eros has been reduced in the modern Western world.
In this spirit, some of our readers might imagine that a guide to lefthand
path sex magic will provide the furtive cheap thrills of thinly veiled
5
pornography. Literally speaking, that much maligned word pornography,
from the Greek porno (whore) and graphia (writing) simply means "to write
about whores". So for those of you who were fervently hoping that this book
would be pornographic, there is indeed enough writing about whores in these
pages to technically qualify. Of course, the whores we will be concerned with
are the conveyors of that long-lost ars amatoria of sacred prostitution. If
prostitution once served a noble and even sacred function, then why not a
sacred pornography? Such a form would be something far more subversive
and powerful than the formulaic repetition of conventions we usually
associate with the genre. The British author Angela Carter, whose cruel tales
were usually tinged with an unsettling and surreal sexuality, once suggested
the possibilities:
"The moral pornographer would be an artist who uses pornographic material
as a part of the acceptance of the logic of a world of absolute sexual license
for all the genders, and projects a model of the way such a world might work.
His business would be the total demystification of the flesh and the
subsequent revelation, through the infinite modulations of the sexual act... the
pornographer has it in his power to become a terrorist of the imagination, a
sexual guerilla whose purpose is to overturn our most basic notions of these
relations, to reinstate sexuality as a primary mode of being rather than a
specialized area of vacation from being and to show that the everyday
meetings in the marriage bed are parodies of their own pretensions."
In many ways, Carter's description of the taboo-overturning "sexual guerilla"
who totally demystifies the flesh makes for an excellent introduction to the
work of the left-hand path sex magician that this book illustrates. For the
magi of the left-hand path, sexuality is even more than "a primary mode of
being" – the altered state of extreme erotic ecstasy is a potentially divine
mode of being, the chaotic dance of two magnetically attracted opposite
energies that allows for the creation of a third power transcending the human.
The couple that unleashes this hidden, psychically remanifesting power of the
left-hand path within their orgasm-yoked organisms to its full intensity will
find it difficult to return to the pre-programmed existence they once led. The
man and woman who even once taste the freedom of the left-hand path, as
expressed through its self-deifying sexual rites, have exited the human game
as it is normally played.
If the left-hand path is dangerous – a point both its detractors and its
advocates have agreed upon – one of its primary hazards is the peril of
freedom in a world almost instinctively committed to crushing liberty in
whatever form it might appear. All autocracies have held sway by severely
curbing the full development of sexual power in their subjects. The left-hand
6
path, a method of consciously activating levels of erotic energy almost
unknown in conventional sexual relations, must be viewed as a threat to any
hierarchy that seeks to bridle the development of man into god. The sexual
gnosis of the left-hand path has the potential to forge heroic, self-determined
individuals from the bleating meat of the human herd.
The eccentric (some would say insane) psychologist Wilhelm Reich's
researches into the untapped mysteries of the orgasm on human
consciousness partially accord with the ancient teachings of the left-hand
path. In his The Mass Psychology Of Fascism, Reich recognized the threat
that total erotic freedom would pose to any societal control mechanism. In
unconscious keeping with the left-hand path veneration of Shakti, the divine
