According to a survey carried out in 1999
on more than 100 people who had received A.A. Makaja's love-erotic
therapy, 90% of those surveyed were permanently cured of their addictions,
including addiction to hard drugs, after six to twelve months of
regular therapy. On the assumption that any disorder can only be
cured by elimination of its causes, five main causes of drug addiction
are considered here: alienation from the true self, consequences
of sexual abuse and dysfunctional sexual/love-erotic patterns, dysfunctional
patterns resulting from religious upbringing, excessive stress in
the present performance-oriented society, and incorrect nutrition.
Seven principal methods are used in love-erotic therapy: Komaja
Meditation is the cornerstone of treatment, both for preventive
and curative purposes. Its objective is the promotion of health
in body and mind; the basis of health is the restoration or reinforcement
of connection with the true self. In this way, the client gains
access to the vital force that is essential for a healthy and independent
life. In addition to love meditation, a form of meditation to develop
the ability to love, the following methods are used: the sexual
intercourse as a means of self-realisation, the Theatre of truth
to create awareness of the psychic contents during loveplay, polytherapy
- a spiritual, manifold therapeutic method developed by the author, the development
of social skills through communal living, and strictly focussing
the attention on other contents than the addiction. Makaja's projects
with love-erotic therapy receive state-sponsored and private financial
support.
