Martinus: Livets Bog, vol. 4, sect. 1561

1561. So will there be sexuality in this transformed state of terrestrial human beings? Yes, of course. The beings have not lost their sexual poles. And since the transformation has consisted in only the sexual pole that was previously latent in the being, which thus means, the masculine pole in the woman and the feminine pole in the man, now having become fully developed, the sexuality of the being has absolutely not been diminished; on the contrary, it has been strengthened correspondingly. But here this strengthened sexuality is completely harmless because it cannot create a desire for ownership, and cannot thereby give rise to envy or jealousy either, or any of the other subsidiary causes of so-called "evil" under which terrestrial mankind sighs and groans. With the complete evolution of this new sexuality all marital or sexual dramas, unhappy love affairs, perversities, sadism and so on will cease, as well as wars, revolutions, murder trials, gangsterism and the atmosphere of suppression, destitution, illness and hopelessness that more or less envelop daily life. All these phenomena are maintained solely by sexuality's "principle of two sexes", which organically animates the individual with an unadulterated "desire to possess", which means, an uncontrollable, one-hundred-per-cent desire to "receive rather than to give", and this particularly so in a zone of like-minded beings where this desire is simply a condition of life. It is of course inevitable that all kinds of war must arise here, and that the zone must thereby become the dwelling place of the "killing principle".
