religious principles should also be seen as Krsna.
What is this lust? Lust generally means sex life, but
here kama refers to sex life which is not against re-

a couple is to engage in sex for begetting good chil-

gious, and unmarried sex life is considered irreli-
gious. Actually there is no difference between the
sannyast and the householder provided that the
householder’s sexual activities are based on religious
principles.

seed of all, strength, and kama, desire—does that
