Sex - Is it bad for progress?

[AYPforum]

Do spirituality and Sexual expression work against each other?  Do we have to give up Sex to become enlightened?

The answer is no to both questions. The natural condition built into us is where sexual energy is experienced as ecstatic feelings in the sex organs. What many people are finding in this age of increasing spiritual energy, is that this energy can be moved to other places, using daily yoga practices. When it is moved, it can produce ecstatic feelings in other places, and it is no longer called sex. In fact, this energy is the same as "chi", or life force.

Click on "Main Lessons" above to learn how to control this energy, and another compatible path is through the Tantra yoga lessons. Couples can learn to control life force without giving up sex.
However, in general your spiritual progress will be helped by having orgasms less often in order to save the energy.
