Guest guest Posted September 16, 2000 Report Share Posted September 16, 2000 As Garuda is the enemy of snakes, as impersonalism is the enemy of devotion, so lust is the enemy of the conditioned soul. It is the first of three gateways to hell. Lust is so powerful that it may seem impossible to overcome. The brahmacri vows to fight sex desire, and may sometimes think he is winning the battle, only to find himself again plunged into the ocean of material desire. How to overcome this eternal enemy, this destroyer of knowledge and self-realization? What to do if we are sexually agitated? Ans: To overcome it we will have to take a serious, mature decision to continue with devotional service throughout our lives. That is the only remedy. >From BIKC by Bhakti Vikasa Swami Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
