In the beginning see the world as maya. After turning within and seeing the vision of God inside, one should then see the entire world as God.

 

Lust is most sinful, says Sri Krishna; it obscures wisdom. Born of passion, it enters the senses, shows them all sorts of desires, envelops true knowledge like an insatiable fire and eventually leads to destruction. Attracted by cheap comforts and enjoyments one corrupts his senses and loses his intelligence. He falls into the pit of destruction. Sri Krishna says that one should control the mind through the power of intellect and destroy the enemy called lust.
This is possible through the practice of dispassion. Through dispassion, we divert the mind from going to the senses. There is no permanent gain from temporary sensual pleasures. They are the enemies of eternal bliss. This, one has to remember and say again and again. Constant practice will lead the senses to the righteous path. It is only through practice one learns anything. Divine bliss is eternal bliss. All else pales to insignificance and are but small enjoyments. We should not become slaves to these petty pleasures. When eternal bliss is waiting for you why should you suffer in sorrow? Through wisdom and detachment, one can fully realize the state of Oneness with the Absolute. This is Advaita where He and I (soham) are ONE.
