How we are victimized by sense gratification

While we live in the gross body, such activities of sense gratification are

encouraged even by modern government regulations. In every state all over

the world, such activities are encouraged by the government in the form

of birth control. Women are supplied pills, and they are allowed to go to

a clinical laboratory to get assistance for abortions. This is going on

as a result of sense gratification. Actually sex life is meant for

begetting a good child, but because people have no control over the

senses and there is no institution to train them to control the senses,

the poor fellows fall victim to the criminal offenses of sense

gratification, and they are punished after death
