….Dagistan …. When the people of this place are annoyed with
somebody they curse him with the most terrible curse ever: “May you forget your
beloved’s name.”
Have you realized that the blooming of a flower is an
expression of passion, that it is a sexual act? A peacock dances in full glory:
a poet will sing a song to it; ….. it is primarily a sexual act? ….a boy has
become an adolescent; a girl is growing into a woman. What is all this? What
play, what leela is this? …. Throughout one’s whole life all acts of love, all
attitudes and urges of love, are flowerings of primary sex energy
Religion and culture pour poison against sex into the mind
of man. They create conflict, war; they engage man in battle against his own
primary energy ….. Not enimity, but friendship is to be made with sex. Sex
should be elevated to purer heights.
……if lust is transcended, sex can become love.
Because of condemnation, sex has become an obsession, a
disease, a perversion……
…until natural sex is accepted without reservation there can
be no love.
My conjecture is that man had his first luminous glimpse of
Samadhi during the experience of intercourse. Only in the moments of coitus did
man realize that it was possible to feel such profound love, to experience such
illuminating bliss …..that in the moments of climax the mind becomes empty of
thoughts. …And this emptiness of mind, this void, this vacuum, this freezing of
the mind, is the cause of the shower of divine joy.
Having unraveled the secret up to this point, man dug
further…… that even without coitus the consciousness could be stilled and
thoughts evaporated…
Our society will only be free of the ghost of sex when we
develop the courage to talk about sex in a rational and healthy manner.
It is only by understanding sex in all its aspects that we
will be able to transcend sex. You cannot free yourself of a problem by
shutting your eyes to it.
Ninety-eight per cent of mental illness, of neurosis is
because of the suppression of sex.
Whenever I meet prostitutes, they never speak of sex. They
inquire about the soul, and about God. I also meet many ascetics and monks, and
whenever we are alone they ask about nothing but sex.
This sexual climax only lasts a moment, but for this brief moment
a man loses a considerable amount of energy and vitality and later laments this
loss
….the results of this war with sex are difficult to assess
correctly. Does homosexuality exist anywhere but in man’s so-called civilized
societies? Aborigines who live in backward areas cannot imagine a man having
intercourse with another man….. Prostitution also exists in direct proportion
to a society’s civilization. … Can you find a prostitute in the hilly areas of
the tribal peoples, in our far-flung settlements? Impossible.
…Khajuraho ….The outermost wall, the periphery of the
temple, is decorated with scenes of the sexual act, with the various poses of
intercourse ….the architects who built that temple were highly intelligent
people. They knew that passion and sex exist on the circumference of life and
believed that those who were still caught up in sex had no right to enter the
temple.
The first step to free the world from sexuality is to allow
children to remain nude, as much as possible, in the home. As far as it is
feasible, it is advisable , to allow children, both boys and girls, to play in
the nude, so that they become totally acquainted with each other’s bodies
….Then there will be no need to print nude pictures in books. Then they will be
so familiar with each other’s bodies that no kind of perverted attraction will
be possible in the future.
Conservation of energy is a prime requisite of religion
….The biggest outlet for man’s energy is sex. Sex is a continuous drain, and it
should be stopped.
Although animals have their limits and their periods, man
has neither. Man is sexual each hour throughout the year. Without exception, no
animal in the animal kingdom is sexual to this degree. Animals have a specific
time for it …..look at what has happened to man.The thing which man has tried
to repress … shoots up throughout his life. It is an ever-active volcano….what
we have done to suppress sex! We have had to develop an insulting attitude
toward it; we have had to degrade it ….abuse it…call it sin ….Look into the
eyes of an animal; wou will not find lust there. ….animals are beautiful in a
way, but there is no limit to the ugliness and stench of man, the mad
repressor.
As a first step in freeing man from sexuality, children –
both boys and girls – should …receive instruction in the subject of sex. …they
should be brought much nearer; this segregation is completely unnatural.
….if coitus can be prolonged for seven minutes, a man will
be so free of sex that no thought of passion will arise in him for the next three
months. And if the period of coitus can be extended to three hours, a man will
be free of sex forever; he will never desire it again!

Oh complete tripe. I could argue each instance but its not worth it. I will, however, say that when I was rather younger I would routinely 'prolong coitus', as your writer might have it, for hours at a time and frankly my partners and I enjoyed it so much that rather than being free of sex for any length of time we could hardly wait for the next opportunity.
It is true, however, (in a sense agreeing with your writer) that the suppression of the pleasure of sex in all its form (done by most religions, especially Christianity)is the root cause of a great many personal problems, and by extension societal ones. But substituting one religious tyranny for another (whatever it cloaks itself as) is not the answer.
