My personal opinion as far as lust is concerned, it appears to me to be an intensely selfish feeling and act. It is taking and not giving, in whatever scenario, be it sexual or not. In regard to the sexual context of it, lusting for your, boyfriend, husband or whatever is not what one should experience if Loving that person is what you claim. Your passion and love for that individual, should make everything beautiful not lusting for…. as people have stated in prior posts, again just my opinion. Unfortunately many of us have been poorly programmed by life's events, and personal experiences. If those experiences are distorted, such as lust our ability to comprehend spiritual truths can be off center. This I think is where an individual becomes defensive or will try to justify their lustful feelings, and the reasoning of another unlustful person will have a negative impact because this happens to be their circumstance that they are in at that particular time. As it has been said and which I agree with, our programming of Life has been poor. Passion and Love continue to grow and flourish. So in essence how would one control Lust? Well it is said that, it is a natural law that anything not fed will die. And whatever you have drawn to your breast is what is growing in your life. First, it hears your heartbeat. Second, it is warmed by your closeness. And third, it draws nourishment from you. This so true!

The caution here is to be careful of what you nurture, be sure you are nurturing what you want to grow and starving what you want to die.
