(00:00) what do you think of masturbation same same same principle that happens in celibacy same principle so if somebody's masturbating and he's uh practicing some spiritual same thing there's a leakage of energy that is going to happen so whatever I talked about right now in the course of physical relationship Etc remove the word physical relationship add masturbation same thing there's no difference it is not going to make any other good or bad or anything and I'm not talking even from a moralistic perspective I don't care what anybody
(00:29) does in their privacy but um unrestricted yes definitely it is going to interfere with your process uh with your sad at a higher stage and one of the biggest uh disadvantages of unrestricted sexual encounters or masturbation for that matter is that um uh as I say in the peak point of concentration you should be like this when you are sitting for your japa or uh yoga or meditation or whatever at that Peak moment you should be able to forget the whole world even if that is for 2 seconds then it is working for you what
(01:00) happens with unrestricted uh either whether physical encounters unrestricted sexual encounters or excessive masturbation is that it is at that Peak moment that your chitt which is the you know kind of the the mind that has Impressions it is going to throw up all sorts of images and immediately it is going to break your concentration very minor thing but your practice is already gone you can pretend to the outside world that you are a great Yogi and you are doing a lot of practice but your inside your practice is not working so
(01:27) that is the problem on the other hand if you completely say that oh from today no no physical no sex no masturbation no nothing you have to become I don't know what two days you'll go crazy neither is Mantra is going to work neither the practice is going to work neither this is going to work so that balancing is important and we live in that kind of an age where to sell a toothpaste you have to put two skimpily clad women on the advertisement where is your celibacy going to come from yeah the society we live in stimulates us to shoot a load
(01:55) off that is where you have to maintain that Common Sense use common sense and balance and no point in the spiritual journey are you to give up your common sense you will end up becoming a fool yeah yeah also I mean this is just a personal thought here not learned from a book probably learned from experiences my thought is that if a spiritual truth does not make sense to you and your subjective reality no one's asking you to accept it yeah so if this is against your thoughts don't accept it and I'm not even judgmental of people who say by
(02:25) the way just because I'm sure that a lot of people will see that there may be traditional people who have celibacy they put into a very high pedestal and not being judgmental and all that you do whatever you think is right for you but if you asking me this is how you should approach in this age initially and the impulse celibacy comes naturally by the way yeah that I was just like literally a second before you said that I was thinking about the same thought that your liido if you're involved in a yogic life a spiritual life a tantric life uh
(02:54) Your Lust settles down without any effort yes after a certain point of time it will set there are since we are on the topic there are two other factors by the way you have to remember here uh I think yesterday we were discussing about um pitrus ancestors were stuck in a pit Loca were not able to move forward very often in many cases uh an excessive amount of lust in an individual whereas they may be practicing everything well U is basically a projection of the impulses of those pus and if it is the case and that can be analyzed through
(03:27) you know various uh looking at the configuration of the planets at the time they're born and various other ways of finding out that is the case then the only way is to actually perform rituals in the right shatra the right place so that the ancestors get reborn and then it causes you define it in whatever way you want but then it has an effect that slowly that liido or that excessive amount of so normal lust is one thing normal lust everybody has but it goes beyond everything all rationality Etc then it also comes down you know calm
(04:00) down a bit that is one the other is with age also libido kind of can taper off um for a person who is genuinely spiritual yes that is what is happening for somebody who's not in the spiritual path it's up to them I mean I no judgment on what they are doing or not doing it's completely their life their choice but spiritually this um uh so pitrs are one of the things by the way that is there in quite a few cases I've seen people who face certain bursts of whether it's excessive amount of lust or whether it's excessive anger or certain uh and that
(04:29) also manifest a certain blockages in life in various stages etc those those go off only when the pitu something is done to Plate those pus okay and if that is there if there's a normal amount of lust then uh to look at it as a manageable thing the other problem that happens it tapers off on its own it will in time okay don't don't make it as a big thing in your head that's the other problem that happens with a lot of spiritual people I am not able to get out of lust so you feel guilty about it that is far worse than
(05:01) actually you know indulging in physical relationship sex or masturbation or anything after that the guilt trip that happens to some people that okay oh I I could not maintain cacy that is not going to help you that is far worse
