“If you can’t see God in all, you can’t see God at all.”
– Yogi Bhajan
In its literal meaning, Brahmacharya could be translated as “behavior which leads to our Supreme Self” or simpler “walking with God”, indicating the high achievement it grants, and the righteous path it offers.
This path is a path of moderation, teaching us to enjoy the pleasures of our senses in the right measure. It teaches us to avoid overindulgence in all our experiences – from erotic pleasures to food delights, from sleep to work, from social media to all kinds of addictions.
In absence of better knowledge or methods, pleasure and desires were often cursed as temptations and suppressed. Yet, as in all Yamas and Niyamas, it is our awareness that makes all the difference.
In the case of Brahmacharya, the lucid contemplation of our desires is the first step, allowing us conscious choices of how to deal with our various energies, and when it is time to stop.
The strongest energy in our human life, the sexual energy, offers a perfect playground to exercise our temperance. We do not need to become abstinent and refrain from erotic interaction to avoid getting lost in lust. Erotic amorous continence allows us to fully enjoy and consciously experience the erotic fusion while perfectly controlling and directing our energies through awareness.
“Don’t ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go do it. Because what the world needs it people who have come alive”
– Howard Thurman

Thank you so much for making this series! You structured it very very well and presented it with so much love and dignity! Very beautiful!! ❤
The Yama and Niyama webinars were all so amazing and wonderful. Sofian is an exceptional speaker, gives a lot of examples, is on point and helps with the practical aspects – actually one of the most eloquent and organised speakers I have been blessed to listen to.
Thank you for the Asteya workshop, I just loved it! The presentation was super well-structured and everything was clear and understandable with examples that I think we can all relate to. I really enjoyed it.
