Based on Bhagavad Gita Chapter 03, Text 39
Nothing fascinates the human imagination as much as sex. Pictures, articles, TV programs, movies, novels, websites and almost all conceivable means of communication are frequently used to titillate people’s imagination sexually. The sheer amount of time, energy and material dedicated to exploring sex makes it seem something extraordinarily special, rare and unique.
Factually however, sex is extraordinarily ordinaryin three ways:
1. Frequency: It happens millions of times at every moment for every moment since the moment creation began.
2. Availability: It is available not just to humans but also to almost all species — many of whom can do it far more easily and freely than humans.
3. Familiarity: All of us have experienced it millions of times in the past, in all the countless lifetimes we have been in material existence.
Thus, sex is totally pedestrian, completely commonplace, absolutely routine. Then, why does such a run-of-the-mill activity make us run off after it — mentally and even physically?
Due to the deluding power of lust.
The Bhagavad-gita (03.39) states that lust is the nitya-vairi, the eternal enemy of the soul. When lust controls our mind, it maliciously distorts our vision. Consequently, we see the activity that is extraordinarily ordinary to be extraordinarily special.
