I know variations of this question have been asked many times, but I am not sure if in quite those terms, I will try to explain my question.
I have been favouring brahmacharya according to AYP, and as I understand it I know it is fine to orgasm every once in while (variable to each person).
My specific doubt is, do I “need” to ejaculate, every once in a while?
I ask this because it has been months since I have ejaculated, whenever I orgasm I use the blocking method. And thats what I feel tempted to continue doing…
Could this be harmful? Never ejaculating? Only blocking? “Forever”?
There is no requirement for anyone to experience orgasm or ejaculation. And there are many people who are celibate naturally who never engage in any kind of sex at all.
So, the bottom line is that it will be fine for you to continue as you are. However, it is good to remember that blocking is a kindergarten stage of Tantric sexual practice. There is a lot more beyond that. So, someone can stay at that stage, or they may feel the desire to progress further. The next stage is no ejaculation and no blocking.
See here:
Second, given what has just been said, blocking is not something that will be needed forever. It is a voluntary, temporary measure, like having training wheels on a bicycle. Aren’t you glad to hear that? Bicycles with training wheels are not much fun at all. We want to get them off as soon as possible. So, we have an additional incentive to train our orgasmic response, and reduce our reliance on the training wheels. Once we learn to stay preorgasmic in sex for long periods, we won’t need blocking very often. By the time we get to that stage, having genital orgasm may be part of sex only after an hour or two in union, or maybe we will forget about it completely. [Yogani]
I see I see. I know the goal is to eventually remain pre-orgasmic, was just wondering if blocking every time could be harmful, seeing as I am not at the stage where I can remain naturally celibate yet , and apparently staying pre-osgasmic always is not quite here yet, too… But thank you Christi.
