Comment to 'Sexual Issues on the Astral Side'
  • “I know what I know. Have you ever seen the way he looks at me with such eagerness. What do you think would happen if he was not a monk? Obviously, we would have sex.

    It seems that eventhough one’s alignment with a certain perspective or status may provide an anchor due to habits developed in the physical world. Still the inherent interests may create vulnerabilities.

    “But do not worry. You have my word that I will not have this convert into sex.”

    Hypothetically speaking, if the lady obliged rather than resisted, I would interpret it as nature supporting the subtle interest. What then would be the basis for their attraction? It is not like they’re being influenced by ancestors who seek physical bodies, and are influencing their emotions towards eachother.

    • It is not like they’re being influenced by ancestors who seek physical bodies, and are influencing their emotions towards each other.

      Rishabha , Please show us some evidence where ancestors who seek physical bodies do not influence people in the subtle world to take physical bodies which can become sexually involved and in turn produce physical forms for the said ancestors or their relations.

      Even though subtle people cannot have pregnancies, their sex drive may still be able to sponsor such pregnancies in time. It depends on the energy content of the sex drive of each individual involved.

      It is likely that people who do not have a physical body may by the power of sex drive be induced to take another embryo for the very purpose of indulging physically with the same subtle sex drive.

      • No evidence to provide, so I stand corrected. Actually, your recent experience in the following link ( https://inselfyoga.com/page/view-discussion?id=8484 ), refutes my statement. It shows a scenario of how one may be influenced.
