Once, Rebbe Nachman spoke about detesting and distancing oneself from the universal desire—i.e., sexual desire.
He stated emphatically: See, eating at least provides a person with additional energy and vitality. This desire, however, does just the opposite. It greatly diminishes and damages vitality, and seriously weakens a person’s strength. Other than for procreation, we certainly have no need for it whatsoever.
