Guest guest Posted February 6, 2004 Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 Actually I was reading a post on Brahmacharya in this forum, and I had these questions. Please do not get angry or offended, as I am sincerely trying to find out the answers for my own improvement. 1. I have even read in SuryaNamaskar, some mantras, that nullify the effect of loss of the Vital fluid by various means, and Tirumantiram also. 2. But my only concern is, are we not working against nature? Its just not conquering the natural animal urges, its something that has to do with inhibiting the biological mechanism. 3. Why is it that it is important only to males? Why not females? And in any case females dont have the same biological functions as males. So in that case, do they stand to gain or loose? 4. Even Swami Sivananda has written extensively on Brahmacharya ( I have a copy of it) and he does not answer the physological difference in females. Please help me in finding answers that has been bothering me for quiete a long time. Thanks for your replies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its just not conquering the natural animal urges, its something that has to do with inhibiting the biological mechanism. >> yes, the body will act accroding to nature, but teh soul within the body, the ruler of the body nad to decide to control it or just live like animals do. western culture and foods make it very difficult for a brahmachari. the veidc culture, its teachigns and proper choice of foods helps a lot. <,3. Why is it that it is important only to males? Why not females? >> it is important for all. besides, a wome raised in the vedic culture has very less probability to break her celibacy. she will hardy think of engaging in artificial sex or sex with any one except her husband. so women are not mensioned much. actually the vedic women are more serious about dharma than many males. theyr are capable of raising god conscious children. are you jealous of them? or are you a female?
