Self Control - Undefined !
Love, I heard, is indulgence, when conjugated as a union of body and soul, an indication of the lack of self-control.
And so what defines self-control and how does it impact a mans quest for greatness?
Here are some quotes :
->Let self-control be guarded as a treasure;there is no greater source of good for man than that.
->Knowing that self-control is knowledge, if a man should control himself, in the prescribed course, such self-control will bring him distinction amoung the wise, thus leading to greatness.
What I have heard on this subject makes me realise that the actions or inactions of a man are not limited to love. This too being one of the many paths to the greater good, oneself and beyond.

As far as guarding self-control like a treasure, I do keep mine in a locked box in a secret place. Never had the discipline to keep a watchful eye on it, though.
Control freaks have taken over your brain, I tell you!
I don't think love is an indication of the lack of self control. Sometimes love calls for a degree of self control that is almost inhuman... and the human mind/heart/soul strives to go the distance for this crazy little thing called Love.
dont lose the key doug!
you are right manjusha, love too calls for control, making control the primary source of strength.
Now, where did I leave that key...I remember taking it to the pawn shop...
