How does an erection occur?
 Men should be spiritually stimulated accordingly.
 The borders carrying the erection start signal should be strong and healthy.
 The vessels carrying blood to the penis must be healthy.
 Pelvic muscles should be tight enough to lift the penis up when blood fills the penis.

There are two “tubes of spongy tissue” that run along the penis. This spongy tube is surrounded by a “hard fibrous-partially elastic” outer sheath. When spiritually stimulated, these spongy tissues expand to allow more blood to fill the penis. The veins that run over the outer shell of the penis are then compressed, roughing the blood out of the penis. As the outflow of blood is stopped
The penis swells in the outer sheath and provides an erection. The pelvic muscles, particularly the ischiocavernosus and bulbospongiosus, play a valuable role in achieving an adequate erection.
