Is that what you guys felt? Or at least similar? If not, please share your experience!
Well, as we all know, bio-individuality is very different [I've never experienced anything exactly like you describe].
I believe Yogani calls it ecstatic conductivity (as opposed to, say, "nice conductivity") for a reason.
When we're in the midst of sexual pleasure, there's usually a sense (at points) of "Oh my God, this feels so GOOD!!"
Yes?
For me, "Ecstatic Conductivity" is the set of feelings which occur in my body / system, resulting from practices, which are not purely physical / sexual.
For instance, during spinal breathing, including sambhavi (eyes lifted), my tongue, my eyes, and my whole head will begin to feel SO good that I can barely stand it, and moans of pleasure escape involuntarily ---- you know ..... ecstasy!
I've only had this for a few months - but for me, it's like .... there's no mystery --- that's at least the _type_ of thing Yogani is talking about.
In conjunction with that, I also [often] get:
*A sense of vastly increasing brightness and space inside my head - both of which are very pleasurable.
*A feeling of bliss throughout my whole body, which lasts anywhere from seconds to hours -- but I think of this more as bliss, rather than ecstasy -- the difference between stepping on the accelerator (ecastasy) and letting the car idle at a higher speed than we've been used to [bliss].
So (Alvin) per you orgasm analogy - my own opinion is that it's more like:
If you need to ask "did I have an orgasm" --- maybe you didn't.
(If you had, it'd be more like, "Oh my GOD -- who knew? WOW!")
Now, though [using the same analogy] --- when we each sexually matured, there were things which happened, which showed that our bodies could experience more pleasure, and more range of pleasure, than we ever suspected ---- and your "nose-gasm"
type experience may very well fall into that category.
(And ultimately, whether it's "ecstatic conductivity" or not, is not for me to say -- I'm just responding, [hopefully] per your request.)
Regardless, you're moving in the right direct, and your body is beginning to reward you --- good job!
And congrats on the 2 months without ejaculation - that's a big milestone for most men -- I would guess that A. your experience is likely directly tied to this, and B. you'll see greatly accelerated improvement [in practice quality / ecstasy experiences], if you keep ejaculations down to once ever 1-2 months at maximum (or longer, if you can).
I'm at about 90 days -- mostly because orgasms have disconnected from ejaculation ---- I can orgasm FAR more powerfully than ever before, essentially as many times as I like --- true, full-blown orgasms - without ejaculation - purely using AYP Tantra techniques (along with a little time practicing, as with most AYP practices).
Maybe more on that aspect soon, but that's a topic for the Tantra section, I imagine.
And hope that helps, Alvin -- and congrats on the great progress!!
Peace & Namaste,
Kirtanman
