Suppressing desires
    #14447733 - 05/13/11 08:30 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

Do you find it healthy to suppress your sexual desires, gluttony, anger, greed, etc? These are mostly things derived from instinct that we ignore and suppress through our morals/religion. We encapsulate ourselves in a hypocritical state ignoring our human nature in order to remain the "civilized" folks we pretend to be. Or at least some of us...

Most people just compromise and try to put a good face on it.

Now what do you think goes on with the good-soul Christians that do their best to smother themselves from thoughts against their commandments?

The best thing to do that I've found is to keep desires in check, just because when they aren't, things like hunger, addiction, and sexual desire can be fairly unpleasant to have unfulfilled, or to have to fulfill in some daily quota for satisfaction.

Its like having a monkey on your back. It starts off as a little monkey that isn't so bad to have around, then as you feed it it grows larger and larger until you've got a gorilla on your hands, and it isn't easy to get rid of a gorilla.

Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.
The Force shall free me.

I have always been a Jedi...




although I do disagree with Yoda on a few points.
