An important note:
This explanation is applicable only to householders living with their spouses.
A wise man, rooted in the firm determination that he is Brahmam, even when he enjoys
sensual pleasures as a husband (he should not touch other women), will not lose his mental and spiritual poise provided that:
i) He does not fantasize about the organs of his wife with lustful thoughts; he understands the real purpose of them with divine feeling and clear mind.
Note:
Breasts: They are pots of ambrosia for newborn infants.
Navel: Through this, the fetus receives nourishment from its mother.
Lips: Through them, words of ultimate truth are transmitted to the ears of another. The respect for the mouth should be paramount. Control of speech is the first and foremost austerity for the reduction of Karma.
Organ of generation:
* The body is the temple.
* The womb is the sanctum of the temple.
* The fetus is the deity.
* The vagina is the entrance to the temple.
These are safeguarding (sanctum of the temple) the fetus when it is in the womb. The
womb safeguards the fetus against rain, snow, sun and wind.
ii) He should have the union at appropriate time and place (in God-remembrance),
with a ripe mind and perform the action like play-acting in a drama, and
iii) He should forget the action immediately, i.e. mind should not dwell on that.
Then he can abide in the Natural state as a liberated being.
YOU ARE EVERYTHING!
