There actually is something to the myth: eye-sight does improve with chastity.

The main thing I wanted to communicate in this thread is that you are not going to get anywhere in your Jnani-Yoga path without chastity.

The kingdom of God within you is nothing less than your stored up and sublimated sexual energy. Think about it: that stuff creates life. It is the closest thing to God in the physical world. And you all just spill it on the ground and think there will be no consequences.

Oh yeah? Well spermatozoon potency increases with ejaculation!

I haven't had sex since September 2007, huh, eh? Am I seeing God yet?

No, because you still masturbate and have lustful thoughts.

How do you know? Supposing I did masturbate: The repeated masturbation increases the potency of spermatozoon, such that when I do have intercourse for the purposes of reproduction the liklihood of impregnation is increased. If you are completely celibate for 20 years and then try to impregnate a woman, you might waste a lot of 'seed' doing so.

Now, here is an assumption for you, you actually don't know anything about reproduction.

Blah blah. I know because you write like a woman.

You waste your spiritual potency and brain-power on a tissue in the trash-can.

When you sex and harbor lust you become weak and effeminate.

"Some are continent for the sake of the Kingdom of God. But few there be who can handle it."

No one attains to God-realization without chastity. All spiritual traditions recognize this.

Notice that the goal has shifted slightly. You were stating that there were consequences to "spilling" our 'seed' "all over the ground". In particular that our eye-sight was compromised which I am skeptical of. Now the claim is that we can only attain knowledge of God through chastity.

Of course, what Jesus Christ described is not limited to celebacy, but relates to all worldly manifestations, including food, shelter and life's other necessities. He was not saying that we should starve ourselves to death, but that the path involved compromise and the recognition of the true value of these things.

According to Mr. Christ, in Matthew 22:30 we shall not even marry if we are to be like Angels unto God.

By the way, there are traditions that value sexual intercourse as the primary gateway to heaven. For example Tantra.

You can't grasp the spirit of what I'm saying. Masturbation dulls your intellect.

Chastity has nothing to do with "starving." It is a positive thing. It is the conservation of your spiritual potency. Is it so hard to see?

"God is Rasa. Rasa is Veerya, the vital fluid or semen.
You can attain eternal bliss and peace by preserving the Veerya. Brahmacharya means control of the Veerya. The vital force or Veerya is preserved only by one who is established in the practice of Brahmacharya. The vital fluid or semen is lost and wasted during sexual indulgence.
From food comes juice or chyle; from chyle comes blood and flesh; from flesh comes fat; from fat comes bones; from bones come marrow. Lastly, from marrow comes semen. The Veerya comes out of the very marrow concealed in the bones. It is found in a subtle state in all the cells of the body. Mark here how precious the semen is! It is the last essence of food. It is the essence of essences.
As the vital force is the most precious substance in the physical body, it should be carefully preserved. Its wastage means loss of physical and mental energy.
It is said that a drop of semen comes out of forty drops of blood. According to Ayurveda it comes from eighty drops of blood.
Just a sugar pervades the entire sugarcane and butter pervades milk, so also semen pervades the whole body. Just as buttermilk is thinned after the butter has been extracted, so also the semen is thinned by its wastage. The more the wastage of the semen, the more the physical and mental weakness."

"When semen is preserved, it gets reabsorbed by the body and stored in the brain as Ojas Shakti or spiritual power. The seminal energy is changed into spiritual energy. This is called the process of sex-sublimation. The Ojas Shakti is used for spiritual Sadhana by the Yogi.
The vital force is closely linked with the nervous system. Hence, it is vitally necessary to preserve it carefully if one desires to have strong nerves.
In the Yoga Shastra it is stated: "The falling of semen brings death; the preservation of it gives life." The semen is the real vitality in man. It is the hidden treasure in him. It gives a glow to the face, strength to the intellect and well being to the entire system. Girls, too, suffer great loss through having unchaste thoughts and giving way to lust. Vital nervous energy is lost. There is a corresponding loss of Veerya in them as well."

It is. Truth is one of the least open-minded things in the world.

Consider the change in mood pre- and post- ejaculation.

In Shiva Samhita it is written:
60. Ejaculation of semen is death, preserving it within is life; therefore, let the Yogi preserve his semen with great care.
61. Verily, verily, men are born and die through semen; knowing this, let the Yogi always practice to preserve his semen.
62. When through great efforts success in the preservation of the semen is obtained, what then cannot be achieved in this world?

Oh yeah. You seem to be familiar with that experience. Why don't you elaborate? ;P

Sure sex is a distraction, but I don't think it is going to distance you from the truth in the way that you've described. On the other hand, dogma can distance you from truth...

I just made a youtube video on the power of lust and repulsion in influencing our behaviour.

What happens if you don't ejaculate your semen, what happens to the semen? Does it swim around in your testicles indefinitely? Or is it eventually disolved?

-tomas-
It is absorbed by the body/bloodstream. Much goes to the brain and produces new brain cells. Other of it reinforces nerves, cell structure, etc.


-Animus-
Does it swim around in your testicles indefinitely?

-tomas-
No, there is a small sac that collects sperm on a 24/7/365 basis. This sac serves several purposes .. when for procreation a teaspoonful (about) is ejected at near to-during the 'main' orgasm from this sac along with lubricants for safe passageway to the vagina. All sperm does not have impregnation abilities, many are there to put up defenses from another's male sperm, among other nature-given reasons.

It isn't the testicles where they swim, that is only a production facility, if you will.


-Animus-
Or is it eventually disolved?

-tomas-
Not dissolved, but transformed..

Find a good search engine, type in something like 'masturbation side effects' and scroll the results.

Here's one: http://en.allexperts.com/q/Male-Masturb ... bation.htm

Mental wards are filled up with men, women who have masturbated their life away.

This nonsense that some talk about here having "too much testosterone" is immature thinking.

It's like David Quinn has said, "Masturbation will turn your brain to mush."

One needs to remember we are part and parcel of an electric universe..

When a man and woman hook up the old fashioned way, the woman and man have fluids produced to allow the electric current to naturally flow through their bodies with a 'grounding' taking place. The positive/negative currents interacting.

Condoms, the pill, dildo, aborticide only short-circuit the brain/body by not allowing the electricity to properly navigate thru natural channels. It is akin to taking a bath and placing an electric mixer in the water with you in the tub, turn it on and fell the results.

PS - I could go on and on but life is short, perhaps there are other happily conjoined people who can further aggress on this topic. I've only been with one woman, and she with me, with seven children produced, created if you will .. for over 40 years now :-)

Here is a list of counter-claims:

Masturbation can increase self-knowledge:
Masturbation can lead to self-discovery:
Masturbation is nature’s sleep aid:
Masturbation provides pain relief:
Masturbation is a great stress reliever:
Masturbation may offer cancer prevention:


I've been over dozens of scientific-health related websites and none of them claim what you have claimed, in-fact all of them claim that "negative health effects" claimed to accompany masturbation are all ideological horseshit!

One major difference in the article you posted and the one I posted is, yours is written by anonymous and mine was written by http://sexuality.about.com/mbiopage.htm

My bad, your answer was written by "The Taoist" Expertise: Taoist expert(old chinese sexual traditions)which study The relationship between ejaculation and longevity. Any problems or questions related to masturbation , intercourse, ejaculation frequency . i give u the knowledge in life to avoid the worst ravages of old age, retard the loss of vital energy and live longer lives than those who didn't practice any ejaculation control

Excellent source of information... not!

Try some restraint and see. 3 days. If you aren't addicted that should be no problem. You will have new strength.

If you don't smarten-up soon and put an end to self-abuse, you will have to change your name to Anima. Or Enima.

Nietzsche seems popular round here.

"The re-absorption of semen by the blood is the strongest nourishment and, perhaps more than any other factor, it prompts the stimulus of power, the unrest of all forces towards the overcoming of resistances, the thirst for contradiction and resistance. The feeling of power has so far mounted highest in abstinent priests and hermits (for example, among the Brahmins)." Nietzsche, Notes (1880-1881), p. 75 of the Kaufmann reader

If you want, I'm sure we can get you a supply of jizzum to down before breakfast, that is, if you honestly believe absorbing semen will make you smarter...

Maybe... it has the opposite effect which is why you believe this nonsense.

Animus is actually a latin word meaning a number of different things, including courage, vivacity, bravery, will, spirit, consciousness and mind. That's why Carl Jung selected it...

Animus also means 'hatred or ill-will' in common english usage

3 days? That's cake... why not 3 months or 3 years?
