Sex and immortality ( 2)

There is an old  Chinese saying " sex can disturb our mind and character".  Like I have mentioned before human beings are emotional creatures and we need self discipline to calm our mind and do so, we have to eliminate the source.

However, there was an article in a prime English newspaper , whereby the writer reported that in China , those male who suffers from pre-mature ejaculations  recovered by watching porn movies. There are also reliable health reports that a healthy sex life promotes good health and strong body. It cannot be denied that sex can released pent-up emotions and unhealthy fluids but it has to be done in a more cultured and orderly manner and within the fine arms of the law.

How does sex enhance immortality ? Strange. In Buddhism, Monks practice celebracy and this will be harmful for them, right? The Monks are able to use their mind to relax their body and control their thoughts , hence, they are  in control of their emotions. Their body in its natural way will be able to dispose off the unhealthy fluid.  Nature will take care of it all in its special ways.

Okay, lets talk about the link between sex and immortality. If we have too much sex, we will be low in energy and weak in our thoughts. This will hurt our body and will kill us faster while reasonable  occasion of sex will help to relax the body, exercise the heart, release pent up emotions and unhealthy fluid  and provides some real good exercise. A loving relationship with your husband or wife is also another life booster which gives us a peaceful and intimate feeling. A feeling of complete trust and care and acceptance by your partner. This happiness prolong our  blissful life.

Talking about sex is a  taboo in Asian culture and is an embrassing subject as this is a very personal matter. So, sometimes, people suffer in silence and hold back their frustrations.  This leads to a lack of complete trust between husband and wife and pent up emotions. Sex is a way of communicating the love and caring thoughts and it builds strong relationship which is good for the body and soul. Anyway, in Buddhism , there is no such thing as the soul. Hence, for Asians, it would be in their best interest to break the taboo  and treat sex education and sex discussion as a normal subject of communication and promote a healthy life style.

Like what Buddha says : Follow the middle path. Everything should be done in moderations including sex. Avoid the extremes and  you will have a long and fruitful life.

Namaste.
