c. Osho (1977), Zen: The Path of Paradox, Vol 1, Pune, Osho.com (Audio Discourse) <blockquote>Chapter 2. Chapter title: Ignorance is Ultimate (Talks : 12 June 1977 am in Buddha Hall) </blockquote><blockquote>“Only a bored man -- bored with sex -- can really become a celibate. A BRAHMACHARYA ARISES, a pure BRAHMACHARYA arises -- out of sheer boredom. If you are not yet bored, then your BRAHMACHARYA will be a repression and I am not in favour of any repression because repression keeps the joy in sex alive”</blockquote>d. Osho, Yoga: A New Direction, Discourse : Yoga The Alpha & Omega Vol 05 - Discourse 7, <blockquote>Topic: The Alchemy of Being: Brahmacharya</blockquote><blockquote>“Brahmacharya is not against sex. If it is against sex then sex can never disappear. Brahmacharya is a transmutation of the energy: it is not being against sex, rather it is changing the whole energy from the sex center to the higher centers. When it reaches to the seventh center of man, the sahasrar, then brahmacharya happens. If it remains in the first center, the muladhar, then sex; when it reaches to the seventh center, then samadhi. The same energy moves. It is not being against it; rather, it is an art how to use it. “</blockquote>
