Tony O'Clery Celibacy of mind is important re karma...but in a normal relationship sex is a bodily function....celibacy is for sannyasins...I am not celibate or am I a sannyasin and I'm not realises as I am on FB.

Elena Vinogradova So what are benefits of being naturally celibate? Are any?
9 minutes ago · Like
Elena Vinogradova What I understand it's the most harm is to tense the desire. So some paths go with expressing it fully, like tantra, right? and some frying it like vipassana.
