Guest guest Posted March 13, 2003 Report Share Posted March 13, 2003 The path of salvation or the path going back to Godhead always forbids the association of women, and the complete sanatana-dharma or varnasrama-dharma scheme forbids or restricts association with women. >>> Ref. VedaBase => SB 1.11.36 And as soon as a male is combined with a female, the material bondage of the living being is at once tightly interlocked by sex relation, and as a result of this, both the male's and female's attraction for sweet home, motherland, bodily offspring, society and friendship and accumulation of wealth becomes the illusory field of activities, and thus a false but indefatigable attraction for the temporary material existence, which is full of miseries, is manifest. Those who are, therefore, on the path of salvation for going back home back to Godhead, are especially advised by all scriptural instruction to become free from such paraphernalia of material attraction. And that is possible only by the association of the devotees of the Lord, who are called the mahatmas. >>> Ref. VedaBase => SB 1.11.36 Cupid throws his arrow upon the living beings to make them mad after the opposite sex, whether the party is actually beautiful or not. >>> Ref.
