________________ Not to look at, nor to long for, nor to think of, nor to talk of, women, these are becoming of meditation of the āryas11 and are always wholesome for those who endeavour for a life of sexual abstinence. Therefore, whosoever endeavoureth for a life of sexual abstinence should avoid the talk of women which delighteth the mind and fomenteth the passions. Therefore, whosoever endeavoureth for a life of sexual abstinence should avoid the familiarity and frequent talks with women. Therefore, whosoever endeavoureth for a life of sexual abstinence should avoid observing the body and limbs of women and their pleasant prattles and languishing looks. 25 Shree Sudharmaswami Gyanbhandar-Umara, Suratww.umaragyanbhandar.com
