Why cant we have same pure feeling for the whole society as we have for our mother or sister?

Question: No matter how young & beautiful his sister is, a brother never gets infatuated with his sister on contrary he has the purist of pure feeling towards her. The same brother, however, has completely different feelings towards his wife. This means the power to choose what kind of feelings we wish to have for any other individual lies within us. In other words we can have the purest feelings towards our sister, brother, we can very well have it same for the whole humanity. Then what makes people choose to degrade themselves by having inferior feelings towards others, when they already have the option to choose the best, highest and the richest kind of feeling. Gurumaa Ji :- Nazah, things seem to be not that simple as you have stated because the feeling towards the sister is not pure, it is just the matter of fact that the society has conditioned the mind to believe that you cannot ever-ever have any sexual relationship with your sister or mother. So world over the concept is very much prevalent and it is as per the laws of society and not as per the laws of nature. If you see in the animal world, a dog doesnt have any problem to have physical relationship with his sister even when both of them are born to the same bitch. Dog wont ever find it awkward even to have sexual relationship with his mother, when he grows up from a pup to a young dog. But in case of humans society rules, morality, ethics, religion, so many roles are being very prevalently dominion on the mind and the mind has been trained to believe so that you cannot have such kind of relationship. If you can have access to some cases in the legal courts about this matter; these cases most of the times do not reach the court of law as somehow they are quashed just at a very primary level; but there have been cases where a brother had molested his sister or brother has raped the sister or even father has raped the daughter. These kind of accidental relationships are condemned by the society and the person who was in rage, who had done these acts also feel remorseful later & tremendously guilty about what he has done. But the thing is more or less whole society says so, so that you cannot act like this. And that is what goes on in the mind of a man or a woman that they will not ever-ever think about having impure as you have said it impure feelings towards his sister or mother. So it has nothing to do with the feeling what a man has for his sister or for his mother because he has some pure feelings for them because of pressure of the society, pressure of the priest, pressure of the law, pressure of the ethics, pressure of the morality. So much pressure is on his mind that a man will never ever try to transgress those lines which are drawn by the society. So, it is not about the pure feelings. As such every human being has this option that he can choose that what he wish to feel but most of the times mind is so corrupt, mind is so polluted, mind is so distracted, the mind is so fragmented that majority of people have lost their power of concentration, power to believe in, power to create goodness, the power to think highly, spiritually. The so called human beings are yet not human beings inside, they are still very much animalistic and the journey is first to become a human being and then slowly further you move on, gradually begin to go higher & higher. And the best, highest & richest kind of feeling is not an option which every human being has, it is an option which an individual can create, now this can has a big may be tagged along with it. So it is the may be case, everyone who is born will not die enlightened but as such they do have this option, everyone has this option, every one has this chance, this opportunity but how many of us would use this opportunity in our favour, that is something which really needs to be understood.
