    There is no end to sense gratification. When we have more, we want even more, and more… it never ends. But we are being advised not to restrict our senses completely. We are being told to use them, only as much as required for our maintenance! This is very different than what we hear in general in other sects, how you have to pretty much renounce everything. We are not being asked to do that.
