00:00Social morality in some way has become conflated with religiosity.
00:05And what you call as social morality has so much to do with sex.
00:09Everything to do with sex.
00:11It is as if sexuality becomes the touchstone of morality.
00:17So it becomes a very probable kind of thing for a religious person
00:23to start thinking of sexuality as very important.
00:26And then it starts hovering in your mind.
00:29What does true spirituality have to say about sex?
00:33The answer might surprise you.
00:35It has not much to say about sex.
00:37It is popular culture and morality etc.
00:40that wax eloquent on sex.
00:42Sex, sex, sex. He's a good man.
00:43Why? Because he doesn't have sex.
00:45Sex has to become something small.
00:48Something not very important.
00:50Not a great monster that you are fighting all the time.
00:53Just as you do not remember what you took for breakfast yesterday.
00:56Sex is something you do not even, you should not even remember.
