the illusionary world this one of taste, is the one pure vishay.
Vishaya, sexual process is an excretion. All that is
discharged from the nose, ears, mouth etc. is all an excretion.
Even the discharge of semen is an excretion, an end result, but
one cannot remain without being involved totally in it, and it will
not leave without one becoming involved in it at the time.
I am amazed at how an intelligent man finds gratification
in sex. When you analyze sex, it is like scratching an eczematous
lesion. I often wonder, is this all we have done in endless
lifecycles? All the things that we do not like are in sex. It is full
of stench. Eyes do not like to see. Nose does not like the smell
it. Have you ever smelt it? You should have. Then you would lose
all passions. The ears do not like it either. Only the skin likes it.
Sex has not resulted from an intellectual game and effort.
It is simply a distortion of the mind.
I see so much filth and impurity in sex, that I never have
any thoughts about it. I have seen so much in this that I can see
through the contents and cross sections of the person as a whole.
Man has the wrong belief that pleasure exists in sex.
Now, if you experience greater happiness and pleasure in
something other than sex, then you would not seek pleasure in
sex. There is no happiness in sex but there is no other option
for the humans in worldly interactions. Otherwise who would
knowingly open the lid of a gutter? If there were happiness in
sex, Chakravatis (kings of continents) with so many queens,
would not have set out in search of real happiness. With Gnan,
Self-realization you attain eternal bliss. Yet, after this Gnan,
sexual impulses do not leave you immediately. They leave
gradually. Still one must think about how filthy and dangerous
sexual involvement is.
It is the disease of man to see a woman as a woman.
