If one's child parents go to work 10 hours a day, of course he will watch and enjoy pornography and very soon will assume that there's nothing wrong with that. If someone in shcool had explained to him the consequences of this practise he will think twice before doing it, you know. If they told him " hey mate, the main purpose of sexual act is giving life & when we practise it for personal pleasure is as if we screw with the life-giving force, it is a triumph of disrespect!".Do you agree?

Sure, they teach some basic psychology, which only gives sweet nothing, no use of this subject in school.

Such a person would start searching of God only if a terrible accident happen in their life.And we shouldn't search Him just for personal benefit, but out of love, and because He is important. Just sharing my thoughts, that's all.

Divinity, God...nothing is more important than that. Today is just one more day, in which I didn't have to use trigonometry...
It is all about focus and balance.

I mean, I am no "angel" ...I am very spiritual, but occasionally I will indulge in casual sex...I mean, once every few years and always with the same person I am not at all close to, except on a physical level.

I'll occasionally smoke weed, get drunk, eat meat, party hard, have sex for days...then it is out of my system for the next year or three.

It is the difference between being a Shaivite vs a Gaudiya Vaishnava, I guess....and I have been both, so I still have fondness for Lord Krishna.

I'm also a Tantric Sadhvik so these things are pretty much all "par for the course" and it doesn't mean that I love God any more or less.

Can you imagine it, playground fights erupting over whose vibration is higher while apples have a better reason to get discarded from school lunchboxes...and if you haven't guessed it, I am still in the middle of my biennial binge.

However, I am told I am much more "spiritual" this way.

"Consider how hard is to change yourself, than think about how hard is to change others"... I can't change your beliefs, but there is no need actually. I say this, because it is useless for us to argue :) But I appreciate the things you say. Since you are oppened to new possibilities, instead of smoking it, boil it in milk & see for yourself, it can be a spiritual experience...if you know what I mean... :)

I've had bhang before... nothing new there.

It is not a question of changing yourself only to become somebody you are not in the process. There is also honesty with yourself and others.

Often, it is our conditioned inhibitions which prevents the ultimate spiritual realisation.

If you could go backwards at 7 years old, without memories, new start & if you could choose, would you want to meet spirituality in early age or leave things develope naturally ?

If I was going backwards from 27 and not just 7, it would make more of a difference.

I still have all my "imaginary friends" that no intelligent "grown up" can ever convince me that it is just a function of my "overactive imagination" so, if I am going to be counting back from 7 in THIS lifetime, can I also do that with all my previous ones too? Should be fun.
