the only householder that YOU KNOW who has conquered ALL is THAKUR ONLY!

I think conquering lust and remaining celibate are 2 different things.

One can remain celibate throughout your life but can have lust inside

the mind all along. However, conversely, I am not sure if it is

possible to have physical relation perfectly detached.

 

Swami Yogananda, another favourite disciple of Sri Ramakrishna was

another example of one who married and later embraced Sanyasa. About

him Swamiji remarked that of all the disciples of Thakur, Yogen is the

one who is most devoid of sex-consciousness !

 

With prayers,

Nikhil

dear friends and devotees, We can give a few examples of Sri Ramakrishna's disciples who were celibate. However one should take account that they could remain so altough married only through the grace of their guru, Sri Ramakrishna. In fact, Sri Ramakrishna himself used to warn his inner circle to be careful from woman and gold in order to achieve the Highest. I feel for those who live in the present world which is full of worldiness, it is not easy to be a married celibate or a celibate throughout life
