Hare Krishna Morning Message & FAQ-18:I am not able to control my lust. Please suggest...?

[Guest guest]

Radhe Krishna To all,Good morning to all of u and have a divine blessed day ahead…..The Lord Himself leads, as would a mother her child, one who Chants the Divine Name with deep bhakti for the Lord. The mother holds the child by the hand and leads and protects the child from falling in any pit that may be found on the way. Likewise, God takes hold of his devotee and removes all the hurdles in his/her way --– SRI SRI MURALIDHARA SWAMIJI-------------------I am not able to control my lust. Please suggest me a way so that I can practice Brahmacharya and attain the Lord. Sri Sri Muralidhara

Swamiji:Lust is human nature. It is unavoidable. Eradicating it completely is not an easy task. So you don't need to feel guilty if you are not able to practice pure Brahmacharya. If you want to overcome lust and practice pure celibacy, try to adopt the following: •Practice strict diet and consume only saatvik foods, that too, only after offering it to Lord Krishna •Perform simple breathe control technique - Pranayama •Keep away from all possible distractions such as opposite sex, movies, novels which potentially trigger the feelings of lust in your mind. •Perform Maha mantra kirtan always and pray to the Lord sincerely to help you out. It is a slow process. You will be able to wake up one fine morning to find yourself free from lust. So be patient and practice the above. With these procedures you will definitely be able to control lust.
