Scientific Understanding of Celibacy (Gujarati Dadavani January-2003)

Worldly people have regarded sexual pleasures as the ultimate form of pleasure but this is due illusion which is due to societal influence. Whereas enlightened beings have seen through their vision & disclosed that there is no pleasure in sexuality & its impulses, on the other hand it is full of dangers. After attaining Knowledge of Self one gradually realizes that happiness of Self is at a higher level than that of sexual pleasures; after this realization illusory attachment towards sexual pleasures reduces & one starts turning back from it. Param Pujya Dada Bhagwan has never told to stop sexual indulgence but he has only given us an understanding about the consequences & dangers arising out of sexual indulgence. This edition of Dadavani will help readers change their opinion about sexual pleasures & enable them to strengthen their opinion that real happiness is in Pure Self itself.
