Hello Julian!

I found out about your website two weeks ago and now instead of visiting porn sites as I used to, I go to celibacy.org to see what's new. I especially liked "11 Steps to Sexual Self- Control" -- very powerful and most of all helpful writing. I wish you all the best in your work!

Hello Julian,

I've been coming to the website for over a year.
I've written to you before and stated that this is the most important site on the internet. I believe that much more every day. It has helped so much, and I'm making great progress in the practice of Brahmacharya. I've been seaching for so long to find some semblance of truth.

Subject: The Path

Hi Julian.

I live in Richmond Virginia. Celibacy also builds up the power of the intellect. Learning about our world becomes a joy. What once seemed to be technical is now simple. What was once blurry comes into sharper focus. Frequent sexing makes an individual metaphorically blind. He can physically see but he is drifting in oblivion. Celibacy and divine thoughts leads the aspirant to greater realization about the gifts of life and free will. Life becomes a joy as we seek to connect with the divine creator.

All the best,
-- J. O.

Dear Julian Lee,

I come to your website everyday for inspiration. Thank you for enlightening us.

Let me talk a little bit about myself. I am Chinese and live in Hong Kong. I have knowledge of the martial arts, of Taoism, and also Christian doctrine. Your material in fact provides the central link for these three.

In taoism, and also Chi Gung, we call the sexual energy Chi. But now even in Hong Kong taoism is being altered. Some of the taoist texts now are encouraging sexual indulgence, with methods for the prevention of ejaculation and so on. But in reality the traditional taoist goes after sex restraint -- along with "breathing the Chi" of nature -- absorbing it from trees, woods, grasses, etc.

The Power of "Om"
is easily known
by celibate men.

For the past decade I have been reading all kinds of self-help books on how to be successful, like "Think & Grow Rich," by Napoleon Hill, "The Law of Success," etc. When I consider it all, the crucial link in everything is sexual restraint and conversion of that power. Napolean Hill's book is actually pointing to this, but his chapter on 'sex transmutation' fails to come out and lay it on the table.

Now after a month of practicing celibacy my health is recovering greatly. I notice my mental power increasing over time. My eyesight has been strengthened. (Which I guess validates an oft-maligned folk maxim about masturbation "making you go blind." Sexual loss actually does weaken the eyesight!) Everything seems to be improving.

Your words are very true. Religion without celibacy is impossible. Spirituality without celibacy is impossible. Acquiring wealth without celibacy is impossible. A long prayer is meaningless without celibacy. A fasting life is meaningless without celibacy.

A strong man who is trying to be strong is just a faker without celibacy. It is the divine principle that the chaste man wins in every war. It is the divine principle that the world belongs to the chaste man. It describes it perfectly in St. Paul. Religion and politics are inseperable.

One more thing, regarding your comments about men chasing women who desire him for his survival value, and that ironically, a man can't attract a woman without the qualities that come from chastity. Most women don't like men who chase them like dogs. Your words explain it perfectly. A man can't project his survival value for the woman without celibacy.

Any man who loses fluid more than once a month is living an impoverished life. He is losing his gold physically and spiritually. Wealth is acquired first within us. The gold in this world is not in a bank, and not in our father's inheritance. The original gold is within us.

Emmanuel, God bless,
Peter

Subject: Bramacharya

Hi,

I was inspired by Sivananda's book "Practice of Bramacharya." I have been completely celibate for 14 months; no loss of vital fluid and believe it has helped me to develop my mind and spirit. I endeavor to continue on this path.

Shivananda

I have no regrets about this practice. Along the way I have learned much about the reality of this world the real history behind our present condition and much that we have been taught in the conventional schools is false. I think that ancient peoples had knowledge of Bramacharya.

Human beings were originally without sex organs Ages, Ages ago. The present promulgation of perverse sex-idealogy is a ploy to weaken the moral fiber of the population and destroy spiritual values along with some destructive rock music, T.V. shows, movies, etc. etc.

Best regards,
James O'Brien

Hello Julian,

Thank you so much for such a great reply. I shall keep this battle going. I'm sure it will be over before I know it. Of course you may use the letter if you like. It might need a little tweaking. Maybe it would be good to re-write it as an article and mention the physical benefits of celibacy that I spoke of. :)

I think for people wanting to be healthy and fit, I know from my own experience already that [sexual loss] destroys your passion to exercise as well as the strength for it. It makes you depressed and denatured basically. It really is self abuse. Most of my friends have had sex, But I always refused because I felt it was too soon, and as a result I lost a few. But hey -- I gained a few too, who know and support what I'm doing.

The best news is I'm no longer alone in this quest. I was speaking to my friend about how when I slipped all my strength declined. And you know, he said 'You know what? I'm going to do this with you.' And so he is :) I am glad that you liked my email. It is because of your positive and reaching information that is keeping me going. I always go on in the morning to see what's new to hear.

Oh -- I live in the United Kingdom but I am half Swiss and half Greek by ancestry. I'll just show you a pic of me so you know who you're talking to. This was a few months ago. A few days after I had slipped you could see my skin broke out and went into a mess. lol. And this other pic is when I have been celibate for a while. Along with exercise, healthy eating, fun and celibacy -- I look much different.

I look very forward to gaining some creative inspiration for my music [from my chastity]. I play piano. I think the best song I'll ever create will be about the battle to reach God. Methinks timpanis, French horns, harps, flutes -- hehe -- and not to forget some suspensful strings!

Hello Paul --
Your enthusiasm is inspiring, and the perceptiveness of such a young man about the reality of this is heartening to an older man like myself. I will pray for your increased ability month by month, and year by year, to be more and more self-controlled. For most men the battle is not going to be over in a day, in a month, or a year. Sex desire is the most powerful of all the human desires and instincts, so don't beat yourself badly if you don't attain the stature of a Jesus and a Sankara in three months' time. But now that you know what you know; now that you've seen it clearly, you will never forget it. And your life will take an upward arc from here, with a much brighter destiny. I want to hear one of your great compositions soon! All the really great composers are highly chaste or even celibates.

Subject: High as a Kite!

Julian,

Life is so great when you're celibate!
You know that feeling when your full of that creative energy, that
magnificent power. Anything is possible. I'm high as a kite on this thing.
I really wish i could pick up the phone...and tell men how much they
throw away for a cheap thrill.

Ah well. I'm so thankful to be a man, and also to have been blessed with this realization.

Nick, United Kingdom
