What should I do about my sexual urges at seventy?
Synthesized from Source
practice
"At seventy, recognize your sexual urges as mere thoughts, smile at them, and let them pass; true acceptance comes from witnessing rather than acting."
According to Osho, at seventy you need not act on sexual urges—do nothing. Enough is enough. By that age, desire is largely a mind-game; recognize it, smile, and let it pass. Accept nature’s timing rather than forcing the body. Relax into witnessing; the compulsion fades when seen as thought, not a biological command.
At seventy, don’t chase those urges—notice they’re mostly in your head and let them go.
