Question: Acharya Ji, do you sex as obstacle or a useful tool in Liberation?
Acharya Prashant Ji: Sex is for the body, sex is not for you. Sex is neither helpful towards Liberation, not is it a distraction.
There is a fire burning on the kitchen of the neighbour, there is a stove in the neighbour’s kitchen, is it helpful for your dinner or is it blocking your dinner? It is neither helpful nor a problem. It is in the neighbour’s house, it is not in your house.
Sex is the body’s concern, not yours. But you start talking a lot about sex when you become the body.
Questioner 1: Acharya Ji, I asked this question because I have a book by Osho, ‘From Sex to Superconsciousness’. In that book he has said, “Sex is life energy, and one has to channelise that energy.” Do you agree or disagree with that?
Acharya Prashant Ji: It is not the question of agreeing or disagreeing. Isn’t it obvious? When you say, “Sex is life-force, sex is just that which carries forward prakriti’s (nature’s) game of procreation. Why are you so bothered about sex? Let prakriti be bothered. She is vert interested in running and continuously running the cycle of birth and death.
