The 4 pārājikas
1 Not to have sexual intercourse.
it changes your d.n.a
alters your chromosomes
creates a blood brain barrier
between you and your higher consciousness
once is all it takes
you can never turn back
you are infected for life
sullied beyond compare
your authentic spiritual values
have been sacrificed
to physical pleasure
you will never be satisfied
all who are virtuous unsullied
will sense your lack of purity
they will have nothing to do with you
even those who have fallen
will shun you
as they shun each other
except for those frantic moments
of mutual self-abasement
that deny them fulfillment
grace will never return
to your life
which means
like all those who have partaken
you will have no life
no after life
no present life
only a life
numbing the sense of loss
with diversion
Like my pictures? I post lots on Tumblr
