Yes, the living, breathing, responsive flesh knows the Truth of the Way of Life.
Listen to the language of the body.
“You will not attain spirituality or even a happy life by denying the wisdom and experience of the flesh. You can learn more from watching the animals than you can from a guru or a minister – or from reading my book. But first you must divest yourselves of the idea that your creaturehood is suspect. Your humanness did not emerge by refusing your animal heritage, but upon an extension of what it is.
“When you try to be spiritual by cutting off your creaturehood you come less than joyful, fulfilled, satisfied natural creatures and fall far short of understanding true spirituality.” ~ The Nature of Personal Reality, session 642.

I am quite practical in my thinking when it comes to the body and the spirit. What purpose is the body if not to feel and experience? I mean why have this magnificent package, capable of so much pleasure and of creating so much pleasure for others to only deny its importance?
Religion has defiled the body and that is a shame. What greater pleasure is there than lying in ecstasy beside your lover, kissed by Love's fire? What a waste not to.

Mother's bliss lies in creation... and she enjoys the physical plane, by seeing through the physical body..
She similarly enjoys the astral worlds through astral bodies... and causal worlds through causal bodies.
It is not lust of goddess... it is the lust of material world that clings to goddess... making a body for her... and enjoys the union with the goddess

Because we are not bodies....we are spirits housing the body. Life is an endless cycle of birth and rebirth, but bodies come and bodies go.
