Same-Sex Love.

Spirituality has a history of Same-Sex Love.

Ancient Yogis and Teachers emphasized the love relationship with their male disciples.

The Same Sex Love relationship between King David - the writer of the Psalms - and Jonathan is celebrated in the Bible.

The disciple that Jesus loved was a man - the Disciple John - who laid his head over Jesus' heart at the Last Supper.

And Jesus said to Peter: "Do you love me?" three times.  John 21:15-17 (NRSV)

Islamic Sufism boasts the famous love relationship between Rumi and Shams-i-Tabrizi (two men).

And my own Yogi - Shri Vijayadev Yogendra - is the son of Founder who was loved by the Yogi Paramhamsaji.

When the two men met Mani (later called Founder) was an 18 year old muscleman with a Mr. Universe physique.

So, rather than being frowned upon, Same-Sex Love is the very foundation stone of Spirituality.
