Lust does not last. That’s why it keeps you lusting after time after time for a very long time.
Or rather, lust is not lastingly fulfilling… which is why it comes and goes in cycles…. life after life!
Lust is part and parcel of our human anatomy – it is not wrong to have lust, lust has its place in the universe and has its role to play. If there were no lust in the world, you and I might not be here discussing this matter. However, what is more important is, to understand lust and not get pulled by it each time it arises. The key here is understanding, and observation without letting the mind come to play in it. just me tots 😉
Lust is a natural part of the unenlightened. It can lead to problems though, if it leads to breaking of precepts, suffering and attachment, such that it drives the rounds of rebirth, binding one to it. In fact, it is one of the driving forces of rebirth, for the born and the birthers.
