"Celibacy can be your greatest investment on yourself, for which you don''t have to pay a penny. It benefits you on the path of physical, mental, and spiritual purification." Mankind''s total life has shrunk to forty years, relative to a hundred years of normal life. The future well-being of the world depends solely on the youth. It is the responsibility of the Sannyasins, saints, students, scholars, and parents to reintroduce the life of celibacy in youngsters. Your sexual energy is incredibly precious, and it is much more precious if you want to achieve spiritual growth. Brahmacharya is a term within Indian traditions that simply means "conduct consistent with Brahman" or "on the path of Brahman." Yoga, Hinduism, and Buddhism usually apply to a lifestyle marked by sexual continence or abstinence. (In western culture, it is referred to as ''Celibacy''). When you get engaged in a sexual impulse, the stock of sexual energy from inside will drain, decrease, and go down. But if the thought, which emerged as a consequence of the sexual impulse, is uprooted and tossed away as soon as it arrives, then the sexual force will not be drained and thus will not go down. It''ll rise to a higher level in the spiritual world. According to Ayurveda, semen is the last Dhatu to be formed out of Majja or Marrow. There are the seven Dhatus. From start to finish, it takes the male body an average of 74 days to produce new sperm cells. Semen nourishes the physical body, heart, and intellect. If sexual energy is transmuted into Ojas, the shiny essence (Tejas) of all seven Dhatus is Ojas. It is the strongest aspect of the seven Dhatus gathered together) or the spiritual energy of pure consciousness, called sex-sublimation in Western Psychology. It''ll make your body healthy, strong, good-looking, and you''ll live longer. Through brahmacharya/celibacy, every siddhi can be attained and even the impossible and imaginable goal for the good of the whole universe can be accomplished. Without celibacy, one can achieve nothing big. I insist you try to be celibate for some time. Your face is going to witness a glow, and even without doing anything, there will be satisfaction from inside. And in that, this journal will be really helpful. This 90-days guided journal will support you throughout this journey. This journal includes: ✔️Analyzing your current condition ✔️Significance of Celibacy ✔️The physical, mental, and spiritual benefits of Celibacy ✔️Steps to get started on Celibacy ✔️Daily assessment to record your everyday experience ✔️Monthly assessment to track your progress ✔️And a final assessment to conclude your journey Every page offer options to choose from and spaces to write to keep track of your celibacy progress. Every day you''ll have to record your urges and how you fought them, mood, relapses, brain fog, anxiety, confidence, transmutation techniques you opt for that day, things you want to improve, things you learned, and things you''re grateful for. After every 30 days, you''ll hit the milestone, and trust me, you''ll be amazed to look back at your journey; you''ll not believe how much have you evolved. Every day is filled with challenges meant to spark valuable changes in yourself. Each day pushes you to explore yourself and unleash your hidden potential. It could be challenging in the early days owing to the poor habit of the past. Whether it occurs naturally like wet dreams, you don''t have to think about it and just ignore it. Don''t take a peek at it. But while you are awake, do not do this by your own will. This journal is ideal for every age group and gender. So, are you ready to get started on this life-changing journey? If yes, buy this journal and open the doors of improvement and gratitude for yourself...

What does celibacy mean for individuals and for the people around them? What function does it serve? This is the first cross-cultural inquiry into the practice of celibacy around the world and through the ages, among groups as diverse as Kenyan villagers and U.S. prisoners, Mazatec Shamans and Buddhist nuns and monks, Shaker church members and anorexic women. The examples of celibacy described here illustrate the complex relationship between human sexuality and its particular sociocultural context. Ideas about the body, gender, family, work, religion, health, and other dimensions of life come sharply into focus as the contributors examine the many practices and institutions surrounding sexual abstinence. They show that, though celibacy is certainly sometimes a punishment or a deliberate ritual abstinence, it also serves many other social and material functions and in some cases contributes to kin-group survival and well-being. Celibacy, Culture, and Society represents a significant step toward understanding the functions and meanings of sexuality.

This book offers an analysis of the sociological, historical, and cultural factors that lie behind mandatory clerical celibacy in the Roman Catholic Church and examines the negative impact of celibacy on the Catholic priesthood in our contemporary age. Drawing on sociological theory and secondary qualitative data, together with Church documents, it contends that married priesthood has always existed in some form in the Catholic Church and that mandatory universal celibacy is the product of cultural and sociological contingencies, rather than sound doctrine. With attention to a range of problems associated with priestly celibacy, including sexual abuse, clerical shortages, loneliness, and spiritual sloth, In Defense of Married Priesthood argues that the Roman Catholic Church should permit marriage to the priesthood in order to respond to the challenges of our age. Presenting a sociologically informed alternative to the popular theological perspectives on clerical celibacy, this book defends the notion of the married priesthood as legitimate means of living the vocation of Catholic priesthood—one which is eminently fitting for the contemporary world. It will therefore appeal to scholars and students of religion, theology, and sociology.

When St. Benedict compiled his Rule for Monasteries in the early decades of the sixth century, the Buddhist monastic code had already been in existence for about nine hundred years. Since monastic life is shaped by spiritual practices that are very similar across different religious traditions, it should not be too much of a stretch to suggest that Christians can learn from the accumulated wisdom of Buddhist monasticism. For Buddhists, celibacy, accompanied by skillful reflection on their personal reactions to it, is a means of letting go of attachment to sensory pleasure. Buddhist monks do not marry; they strive to relinquish the desire for sexual pleasure because this form of gratification obstructs the one-pointed stillness that leads to insight. For Christians, celibacy—like marriage—is ultimately about love: responding to God's love for us and expressing selfless love for others. In light of the Christian understanding of marriage as an authentic—indeed, the ordinary—path to holiness, Skudlarek proposes a demythologized view of celibacy, presenting it as an alternate and equally valid spiritual practice for those who choose not to accept the demands of a committed sexual relationship. Drawing on the monastic interreligious dialogue, Skudlarek considers the Buddhist view of celibacy, which is not mythologized as a response to a divine call or as a superhuman way of life. He examines their regard for it as simply—and profoundly—a path to freedom, peace, and happiness. As Christians become aware of the benefits of celibacy for monks who observe it without reference to the Gospel, they may be able to appreciate all the more its importance and value for those who wish to follow Christ as celibates, and in this way come to share in the freedom of the children of God.

Does the current celibate, semi-monastic, and all-male seminary formation contribute to the persistence of clerical sexual abuse in the Roman Catholic Church? Applying sociological theories on socialization, total institutions, and social resistance as the primary conceptual framework, and drawing on secondary literature, media reports, the author’s experience, interviews, and Church documents, this book argues that the Catholic Church’s institution of the celibate seminary formation as the only mode of clerical training for Catholic priests has resulted in negative unintended consequences to human formation such as the suspension of normal human socialization in society, psychosexual immaturity, and weak social control against clerical sexual abuse. The author thus contends that celibate training, while suitable for those who do live in religious or monastic communities, is inappropriate for those who are obliged to live alone and work in parishes. As such, an alternative model for diocesan clerical formation is advanced. A fresh look at the aptness – and effects – of celibate formation for diocesan clergy, this volume is the first to relate the persistence of Catholic clerical sexual abuse to celibate seminary formation, exploring the structural links between the two using sociological arguments and proposing an apprenticeship-based model of formation, which has numerous advantages as a form of clerical training. It will therefore appeal to scholars and students of religion, sociology, and theology, as well as those involved with seminary formation.
