Hey Robert!

I have a few questions:

Is it necessary to be celibate (and not sexually active in any way) in order to achieve high states of spiritual development? (achieving enlightenment, kundalini development, etc?)

Or is celibacy just a preferred living style for maintaining focus, but not required for spiritual development?

If I choose to live a celibate lifestyle and stay single my entire life, am I missing out on important life experiences that are necessary for spiritual development?

I know many eastern practices require celibacy, and I wanted to get your take on it.

Thank you so much! I have read your all your books and many of your articles, and your teachings have been invaluable!
