>>40682498 (OP)There is a way out of the cycle but most cannot control it.
It comes from self mastery and celibacy.
To skip all the fluff and come to the true nature of humans. It is sex and the lack of control you really have over this lust.
The true dedicated monks that wish to pass on and leave the cycle also chose celibacy, no masturbation or procreation allowed.
To exit the rat race is to not participate within it. Live your life and nature and do not bring a child into this life.
Really think about what creating life is.
You are playing god, tempted by the apple/eve.
Who are you to decide if another soul should be here. Your sexual lust and self indulging desires are stronger than your will to control yourself. You are nothing more than an animal like every other.
But you are different, you do have a choice.
Ask yourself honestly, why cannot man/humanity hold hands and walk into the end of our race without procreation. Self extinction by choice. No more suffering no more us.
You know you are going to die anyway so why do you cling to life via procreation? You won't be here to see it through anyway? (or will you?)
If you realize we are all the buddha you realize your child is too. You are the same soul stuck back in another human vessel and split from the greater consciousness.
Let the divine be whole again. Each child born requires the soul to be captured back into a human vessel/body.
To not reject your own sexual nature you are actively choosing suffering.
