"So in existence, opposites are really not opposites but complementaries. The same is the case with bioenergy: man and woman are positive and negative poles. Their meeting is the meeting of positive and negative energy. It is creative of life.

"So even before AIDS became known, I was aware that homosexuality is spreading fast. Sooner or later something very dangerous is going to happen, because homosexuality means there is no tension; man and man are the same poles. They can only create death, not life.

"I have always been telling people to move in their natural, biological sex relationships – man to woman. But about AIDS I became aware just last year, that that of which I was always afraid has come. It was bound to come sooner or later. It is a by-product of homosexuality. And homosexuality is a religious disease: if anybody is responsible for it, it is the founders of all the religions. They have committed this crime, perhaps unknowingly, because first they told people that celibacy is something spiritual, which is sheer nonsense.

"Celibacy is impossible. Nobody has ever been a celibate, unless he was impotent. But the most surprising thing is that the impotent people have not contributed anything to human progress, evolution. They have never been creative; they are just hollow, they have no potency to create.

"The religious people were teaching a forced impotency which is against biology. And whatever your ideology may be, there is no way to convey the ideology to your physiology, biology, your chemistry – there is no way. Once you have eaten the food, you cannot tell your stomach what to do with it. And it is good that it is beyond your control. Once you have swallowed it, it is beyond your control. Your body knows perfectly well what to do with it.

"You may take the vow of celibacy, but your biology is not even aware that you are a Christian monk or a Hindu monk or a Buddhist monk. Your biology goes on functioning the same way as before. It goes on creating male sperms in you, in millions, because nature depends on your not being a celibate. It is good that Buddha's father was not celibate; it is good that Mohammed's father was not celibate."
