The transcendence of sex

Do not try to suppress sex. With your inner wisdom, inner experience and inner light, sex can be transcended — and it has to be. But by fighting, struggling and suppressing, sex cannot be conquered. That is not the process. The easiest way to transcend something is to pay no attention to it, to feel that it is unnecessary. If you think that it is necessary, then it comes to tempt you and you will feel that you are caught. While walking in the street, if you see that there is dirt and rubbish, you do not pay any attention to it. You just avoid it; you don’t walk in it. Anything on earth that you sincerely feel is unnecessary, you can eventually transcend.
