Welcome to the seX
file(s) 
( Satyam eva jayate - the truth is right here )
Just see the extremes that we go to in order to attract
your attention
and provide a solution to your spiritual enquiry.
last updated 14th May 2020
There are no lude discussions here, no "adult
links, pics" etc. This is an information page specifically
to assist in making a clear definition as to
what is Krishna consciousness and what is not.
If you are attracted to neither male
nor female, you are liberated
Prabhupada turned into an abandoned field where
we saw many peacocks -- the resplendent males as well as the plainer females.
Guru dasa remarked, "Among the birds, the males
are more beautiful than the females."
"Among the humans the women are," said Prabhupada.
"And among the Mohammedans a man with a big beard and mustache is considered
very beautiful."
"Then we are the least beautiful," said Guru dasa.
"We have no hairs."
"Yes, nobody likes us," said Prabhupada, smiling.
"We are neither male or female. No one knows who we are. It is very good.
If you are attracted to neither male nor female, you are liberated."
Prabhupada had everyone laughing, but even the
humorous moment was deep with self-realization. As I hurried to keep my
servant's place at Prabhupada's side, I felt all my desires for seeing
Vrndavana through his eyes were being fulfilled. He was truly leading us
into the meaning of the dhama. If only I could stop dwelling on bodily
and mental considerations and simply surrender to his service.
- From the "Life with the Perfect Master" by HH
Satsvarupa Dasa Goswami
Some of our congregation have approached me to make some comment on
the pros' and cons' of the various forms and deviations of sex life that
are so prevailent in modern society. In Vedik Culture sex is little dealt
with, it is seen as a function of procreation rather than a central focus
for the people's pleasure and sub-culture.
It has its shastra like KAma sutras, which today have been very much
over estimated, mostly taken out of context and over emphaised for sensual
pleasures only, minimising functionality, and cultural values associated
with the adherants of such sutras - a little like the accepting the egg
producing rear end of the chicken while neglecting to fulfill the demands
of the mouth end. If one carefully studies the KAma
sutra one will find many restrictions, and guidelines meant to protect
the chaste and faithful, while fulfilling the needs and desires of the
masses. I had to study it during my time at University studying Social
Anthropology. That is a whole different discussion, that thankfully I'm
not giving energy toward getting involved in.
Here we are attempting to address some of these topics from a Krishna
conscious perspective, and frankly have no interest in any other misdirected
understanding or attempt to enjoy or suffer any other directive for which
these activities have become known today.
Srimad Bhagavad Gita gives the
bottom line on sex, where Lord Sri Krishna asures His devotee, dharmäviruddho
bhüteshu kämo ’smi bharatarshabha - "I am sex life which
is not contrary to religious principles, Oh Lord of the Bhäratas [Arjuna]".
(Bhagavad Gita 7:1.)
"Marriage on the principles of religious life is
therefore
current in all civilized human society
because that is the way for restricted sex life."
(His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.Bhagavad Gita4:26.purport.)
"Kandarpa is the sex desire for presenting
good sons; therefore Kandarpa is the representative
of Krsna.
Sometimes sex is engaged in only for sense
gratification; such sex
does not represent Krsna. But sex for the
generation of good
children is called Kandarpa and represents
Krsna."
(His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. Bhagavad Gita
10:28.purport.)
Before readers comment, and put forward what form of sex is preferable
to them, the fact needs to be stated that choice or preference in sense
gratification as mentioned in the above quoted extract has nothing to do
with this page. This page is simply about what is presented by shastra,
and what is upheld by pure Vaishnava Acharyas. Certainly other ideas and
ideals may be found as there are 18 Puranas, some in the mode of goodness,
some in the mode passion, and some in the mode of ignorance, thus all manner
of things can be supported in Vedik culture. Having said that, let us look
to see what is conducive to becoming detached from material entanglement,
and to become attached to Lord Sri Krishna, and then aspire to follow that
path.
In that regard, we have some nice links here that will help one to aim
in that Sattvik pantha (direction of the mode of goodness) at least.
