Logic behind practice of Brahmacharya (or celibacy) - by Swami Jyotirmayananda

From a lecture by Swami Jyotirmayanandaon held July 20, 2014.
"It is beyond all doubt that a life of Brahmacharya is glorious and marvellous. At the same time, a life of moderation in the household life is equally good and helpful for spiritual growth. Both have their own advantages. You must have great strength to tread the path either way."
- Swami Sivananda

by doing brahmacharya i experience brahma for some time

[@Conr454]

Shivanshu Shrivastava yes precisely.. it means walking with brahman doesn’t it? I couldn’t of just made that up i am sure i seen that somewhere.. but there is endlessness about how celibacy is an adequate style of Spirituality.. how can you be Spiritual if you use the body? Like he says in this lecture we are not the body.. not living to please the body but God.. purely beautiful^^
