Nothing In Creation Exists In Isolation
There are equal and opposite forces at play in each and every aspect of Creation. For us to understand mess, there needs to be light. To happiness, there needs to be w. Nothing in creation exists in cion. Every action has an equal and site reaction. Every Bhoga, pleasure, rog, pain. hadever physical desires one gas in, whether food or sexual ure, causes the body to age. Spices d not only lead to corrosion ofthe year of the intestines but also cause activity that speeds up the process eing in the body. Similarly, sexual ence leads to the loss of vital fluid shukra. The term coined in veda for sexual pleasure is anaphor 'loss of shukra'. according to Ayurveda, human is composed of seven dates or fundamental elements-rasa, rakta, manse, meads, athe, majja and sukra. These seven dates are connected such that loss of one leads to the loss of those preceding it as well. So if one were to lose sukra, it would result in loss of all the other six dhatus as well. This is the reason that so much importance has been given to celibacy by our sages and rishis. King Yeti, an ancestor of the Pandavas, indulged in a lot of physical pleasures through his life. When he started ageing, he performed severe penance to redeem his youth. He was then given the boon to exchange his old age with anyone who was willing to gift him their youth. He asked his son Peru, who willingly granted his father's wish. King Yayati regained his youth, and went on to enjoy physical pleasures for thousands of years. Yet, he stillcraved for more pleasure. It finally occurred to him that there is no end to physical pleasure, He returned Puru his youth back and told him to overcome physical desires. The key to satisfaction is to rise over and above these desires, something which often eludes the greatest of ascetics... Long back, I met a Babaji who was performing penance in the Himalayas.Iasked him how he took care of his sexual needs. His face turned red and instead of answering my question, he angrily told me to go away. I was stunned that a person who was living in the Himalayas could be affected by something so physical and basic and react so angrily adjusts the mention of the word. Had he risen over his basis senses, as Yayati had advised his son Puru to, he would not have reacted thus... Ayurveda may promote celibacy butit does not prescribe suppression of natural urges. If one has the urge to restor to indulge sexually, and if instead onesuppresses that urge, it results in disease in the body. Yoga therefore prescribes "ek tatva nirantar abhyas”, that is, one-pointed focus, under the guidance of Guru. If the focus of the person remains orthe One, then nothing can shake or affect that person and the need to suppress does not arise. Sanatan Kriya further details the techniques to conserve sukra and to transform the conserved sukra into ojas, a subtler dhatu, responsible for the extraordinaryradiance around a person. At an advanced stage, ojas transforms into treewhich accounts for the magnetism exuded by yogis.
