Guest guest Posted December 22, 1999 Report Share Posted December 22, 1999 Celibacy is giving everything you are to the Creator. As stated, celibacy is why the Catholic Church became so wealthy and powerful. The lack of renunciation among protestants is the reason Protestantism has always been splintered and weak. (Although the Catholic Church has gradually lost its renunciation culture, the Protestants scarely had one from the start.) Celibacy is also the reason that SRF, the organization left by Yogananda, is growing and becoming powerful. And it is also the reason that all devotees and yogis end up materially well-off. (Note: Here celibacy is used as complete abstinence from sex life or using sex life only for the procreation of God conscious children.)
