Questions concerning the practice of 'Brahmacharya' to know the self & the means required are dealt with on this site.

ACTIVITIES. WHETHER THERE IS BALANCE OF SUCH THINS OR WE HAVE TO WHOLLY SURRENDER TO MEDITATION OR DHYAN. PLEASE FURTHER GIVE YOUR WARM REPLY | Answer 1. Setting aside some time for Yogic practices and meditation, the rest of the time is to be utilized in honestly performing ones Dharma (such as that of a student, professional etc.) without attachment. 2. When performing Yogic practice and meditation, the mind should be completely involved in the activity and think of nothing else. The thought should be that of the Lord, seeking Mukti (liberation). Similarly, when involved in worldly work which is a part of ones Dharma, one should work devotedly towards the activity on hand with the thought I shall complete this work to the level of excellence as a service to the Almighty, whose Leela I am a part of. I do this work not for myself but as a token of service to HIM. When such an approach is followed, it does not matter much whether the work is in the world or without it. Such a Yogi speedily overcomes his worldly obligations and progresses fast in the path of liberation. (That Supreme being is the absolute truth)

Experience
The term 'Yoga' is a derivative of the Samskruth verb 'Yuj' which refers to union. 'Yoga', also called 'Brahma vidy' is the eternal dissolution of the individual 'Aham' (Ego) into the Atman (self) that is the Lord for 'Mukti' (liberation) Mere indulgence in 'sana' or physical postures is not Yoga. sana is only one limb or 'Anga' of Yoga. The eight limbs viz. Yama, Niyama, sana, Prnyma, Pratyhra, Dhrana, Dhyna and Samdhi are the means to Yoga. Brahmacharya or spiritually based continence is one of the important components of 'Yama'. 'Brahmacharya':-"Brahmani charyathey ithi" - "One who has completely surrendered to Brahman, overcome the Ego, and has realized himself to be a tool of the Almighty." Education/Credentials Bachelors degree in Engineering.
