The teaching below is from the book, "Being Upright", by Reb Anderson Roshi, a Soto Zen priest at Green Gulch Farm, in Muir Beach, CA. I study in this lineage, with my Zen teacher, Fu Schroeder, as one of Reb's students.
The world of sex is sitting upright, too. Whenever you do anything with such complete warmth and devotion, it is the same. Creating a work of art, cooking a meal, or cleaning house: any action of body, speech, or mind, when done in this spirit of complete devotion, without imagining anything else, and without slightest separation between yourself and the task, is the same. This is immaculate sexuality.
Amen!
