Discomfort from seminal build up
Question
Although this topic has been discussed previously I am sure, could you please elaborate or give me direction on how to deal with the discomfort of prolonged periods of sexual abstinence?
My problem is that after a few weeks, I develop discomfort in my testicular region due to the seminal build up from either thoughts or a non-vegetarian diet. It seems the only way to help is through sexual release.
I want to take my brahmacharya as far as possible but it gets very painful. Is this where the bandha exercises come in play? I am working on slowly becoming vegan. Will it be impossible to extend my periods of abstinence without completely eliminating meat from the diet?

Answer
1. One should indulge in adequate physical exercise/sports or Yogasana, mental work and spiritual meditation if semen is to be transmuted effectively. Build up of semen is an indication that there is an inadequacy of either of the above mentioned activities. When the body, mind and psyche are subjected to such activity on a daily basis, Veerya (semen) gets transmuted. A life of Yoga as has been outlined in past answers is to be properly practiced. Else Brahmacharya will not be possible beyond a limit.
2. Gradually reduce and finally give up meat. Meat is not conducive to Yoga & Brahmacharya. Drink milk & dairy products.
