Well maybe, but that doesn't explain why you haven't enjoyed sex in years, being single and all. I make love to Rita every single week and we both enjoy it. It's all good. Go figure.

They were afraid of famine and with too many people that could be a problem. If they didn't make them fear having sex then they knew people would be multiplying almost like rabbits.

(high school precursor to Vedic Science) teacher would spend long days talking to us about the dangers of masturbation, sex before marriage, sex before turning 25 (when 'our brains would be fully developed') and that sexual release would slow our brain power and also alter our physiology in ways that would make it harder to transcend through TM and thus harder to reach enlightenment. These topics were covered extensively through grade 7 through 9, and were touched on in 10 through 12 briefly. These ideas were pulled directly from vedic scripture, and from Maharishi's talks on subjects like sex and how to keep the physiology pure for optimum ability to transcend during meditation. So whether or not you want to talk about the TM movement's open views about sex or not, this is what was taught to us at Maharishi School of the Enlightenment (MSAE), in Fairfield, Iowa, which sits on the campus of Maharishi University of Management. MSAE is one of the flagship, shining stars in the TMO fleet, as you have pointed out in your other post, so I hope you aren't about to back-peddle and say that TM has nothing to do with MSAE. I will let the rational, non-weasel, non-TM-apologists in this thread decide for themselves what the TMO has to say about sex.
