Kama - an essential subject

The sanskrit word for lust is 'kama'. Even in this world, people steer away from those who tend to have lusty desires. These desires usually refer to strong attractions to the opposite sex, and when one acts upon such desires impulsively and aggressively, the consequences turn out to be ghastly. Hence it is very wisely stated in the scriptures that for the general peace and harmony of society, one should abolish these lusty desires in one's self and take up spiritual practices as prescribed in the Vedas.
