Does the real master of meditation lead austere life?

Some religions often recommend or even impose life in celibacy. It has to help in achieving higher level of conciousness. In my opinion all bans of this kind (like a ban on having sex or a ban on drinking alcohol) aren’t necessary. Such bans can only discourage people from meditation.

Meditation has to enrich our life, improve it quality and also make it more pleasant. So this practise is not for sacrifice anything or make our life unhappy. Sex isn’t an exception to this rule.

This idea is not groundless – e.g. in advertisement the subject of sex is used very often because sex sells well.

It is possible and it is worth to use strong energies connected with sex to better purpose. If somebody wants to penetrate this subject I recommend Tantra Yoga.
