I am emphasizing on many occasions, ‘Eyes that seek evil, ears that relish evil, tongue that craves evil, nose that enjoys the foul and hands that delight in evil – these must be totally avoided.’ Whoever has any of these must be avoided. Or else one’s future is bound to be disastrous. The wrongs of the five Indriyas (senses) will result in the destruction of the five Pranas (vital energies) and the killing of the five Koshas (sheaths). Of course, the senses yield momentary pleasure and joy but, as the saying goes, ‘senility lies in wait.’ Sensual pleasures bring about great grief quite soon. (V Vahini, p. 81)
