[O Krishna! On one side, You are telling that sexual union is like hunting a soft natured animal by a wild animal and on the other side, You are telling that the generation of children through sexual union is service to God since it continuously maintains the chain of humanity on the earth for the entertainment of God in human form. You also told that in spiritual life (Nivṛtti), love is an inherent characteristic. You also told that the love-transformed-lust is as pure as love like the modified gold into jewel. In such case, are You appreciating the love-transformed-lust in the spiritual life?]

Śrī Kṛṣṇa Bhagavān Uvāca:-
[God Shri Krishna spoke:-]

[Ancient sages used to produce children through divine union avoiding even a trace of physical touch, not to speak of the lustful hunting violence of physical sexual union. The union of sage Atri and mother Anasūyā done for the sake of getting God Datta as their child called God Dattātreya was simply a union of two minds through the contact of looking at each other through meditation only!]

[By the divine laws of creation, the reproductive hormones are activated in every body having awareness. But, these activities take the colours of the predominant qualities of that alive body. Although milk is drunk by both a sage and a serpent, the energy gained from such milk is involved in different ways of thinking and subsequent actions. The sage of pure Sattvam quality preaches the spiritual knowledge and the snake of qualities of Rajas and Tamas bites and kills even soft natured creatures.]

[In the spiritual life, in the final matured state, the devotee will have only the quality of Sattvam and not at all even a trace of qualities of Rajas and Tamas. Sattvam is precious like gold metal. Rajas and Tamas are like cheap iron metal. From gold metal, jewels like chains etc., are always created and not the swords used in warfare. From iron metal, weapons are always created and not jewels.]

[In the pure spiritual love, only the facial beauty creating pure divine love that is expressed by superficial hugging and kissing alone was desired by the sages of Sattvam quality from God Rama. From the same God Rama, the demonic brain of Śūrpaṇakā of Rajas and Tamas qualities desired lustful sexual union.]
