This was about Brahmacharya, which in our 8limbs of yoga is the practice of sexual restraint and celibacy.

Brahmacharya means

Brahma - God (all being eternal consciousness bliss)
Carya - To move toward, or to move with

And I think can be easier understood today as correct use of energy and maintaining boundaries (moderation).
In these modern times, in capitalist American culture most of us are not practicing celibacy or moderation. At least, maybe not by choice. But I got to thinking about how Patanjali was probably trying to be like "Sex is distracting, sense pleasure is distracting, liberation is what's up" and how like, that is still true today, BUT what about right use of pleasure, of sensuality, of the good shit? Im thinking that our yoga practice actually helps us tap into our INTERNAL resources of pleasure, the pleasure of our intellect and its creativity, our bodies and their delight in senses and feelings of strength and feeling of softness. Wait, feelings can feel GOOD? Right? And how can we tap into that pleasure in a way that is useful, that is our birthright, that is Brahmacharya, as we continue this path of learning and liberation.
