Remember these seven vital points
(1) Sensual pleasure is momentary, deceptive, illusory and imaginary.
(2) A mustard of pleasure is mixed with a mountain of pain.
(3) Enjoyment cannot bring about satisfaction of a desire. On the contrary it
makes the mind more restless after enjoyment through intense craving (Trishnaa and Vaasanaa).
(4) Sensual pleasure is an enemy of Brahma-Gyaan
(5) Sensual pleasure is the cause for birth and death.
(6) This body is nothing but a mass of flesh, bone, and all sorts of filth.
(7) Place before the mind the fruits of Self-realization or life in the soul or
Brahm or the Eternal, such as Immortality, Eternal bliss, Supreme peace and
Infinite knowledge. If you remember the seven points always, the mind will be
weaned from the cravings for sensual pleasures. Vairaagya, Vivek and Mumukshatwa
(dispassion, discrimination from the real and the unreal, and keen longing for
liberation from birth and death) will dawn. You should seriously look into the
defects of sensual life (Dosh-Drishti) and into the unreal nature of worldly
life (Mithyaa-Drishti).
