For me personally, when I read what you're saying, it just triggers the old "deny the flesh, it's evil" programming that has been used for thousands of years to shame and control humans.
Sure, you don't say it's evil, you just say it blocks spiritual awareness. But that's functionally the same because no one wants to be without spiritual awareness. By setting it up as "one or the other" and "front or back not both" you are creating a false dichotomy that triggers fear and shame in me at least, someone with perhaps hundreds of past lives being badgered about how flesh is sin.
How is your teaching any different from what the catholic child rapists teach?
Personally I choose to believe that I can fully experience and enjoy the flesh without losing the spirit. I choose to believe the trap is non-acceptance of creation rather than enjoying some aspect of creation. The illusion was created for our benefit and enjoying it and honoring it is not the same as being trapped in it. I don't see the good that your kind of duslistic puritanism has done for those who follow it. Not the Catholics, not the Hindus, not the Muslims, certainly not the Christian fascist movements in America. Most of the body-deniers end up worse off, not better off. There may be a few yogis who escaped through the third eye into a different illusion but I didn't come here just to run away. I came here to transform the physical into something sacred.

Do you not know that there is nothing to strive for aside from striving itself? You love to strive, that's why you chose your beliefs regarding striving. I can tell you love to strive or you, The Infinite Creator, would have never chosen to strive for enlightenment the way you do. You, The Infinite Creator, have convinced yourself that there is something to work toward. It's just a game, Lord, and you're just playing, as you type these words into the keyboard, you are just playing the game you created.
