The general perception of lust is that it originates from the


picturizationoftheoppositegenderinanobscenemanner.Butthisisonly
atipoftheiceberg.Butlustoriginatesevenfromaverysimpleandtrivial
things as well, which we generally ignore. Slowly the trivial thing
snowballs into an avalanche and appears in the form of lust. There are
hundreds and thousands of such trivial things around us which trigger
lust.

For example, excessive sleep can trigger lust, excessive food can
trigger lust, spicy food can trigger lust, an impure food can trigger lust,
excessivetalkcantriggerlust,excessivesurfinginthenetcantriggerlust,
nottakingbathcantriggerlust,restlessnessofthemindcantriggerlust,
too much of external engagement can trigger lust, a climate change can
triggerlust,travelcantriggerlust,roamingcantriggerlust,uncleanliness
can trigger lust, a trivial sense pleasure can trigger lust. Likewise, there

So the habits in us can trigger lust and not the gender in reality.

The first major thing to overcome lust is to overhaul our habits


completely. The first thing would be cutting down our sense pleasures
which has a direct relation to the lust. Cutting down all sensory
enjoyments and desires had to be done based on the individual
impressions.

One has to take care of the food, sleep, and recreation and orient
them properly in a measured way to conquer lust. It's just like a bowler
finding a right line and length to take the wicket. The best way to
overcome lust is to progress towards higher spiritual goals. Meditation

3. Know that you are the atman and meditate upon it. Avoid all

ThankYou.
