there would be an adverse effect . Nowadays where is sheel to be found ?
All the twenty-four tirthankaras have talked about the need for a separate bed and a separate seat for opposite sex because two prakrutis ( people , non-Self ) are never completely compatible with each other .

Section Two The Path of Brahmacharya With Awareness Of The Self [ 1 ] Even A Sexual Impulse Is Dangerous
Even the Lord had fear of sexuality . The vitarags have never had any fear of anything , except of sexuality . What I mean by fear is that if a snake comes in then wouldn ' t every person lift his or her feet up ?
[ 2 ] The Dangers Of The Unsatisfied Appetite Of Sex
Those who are not satisfied in their hunger for food , their chit will roam around food and when they see a restaurant they will get stuck there . Is food the only vishaya , object of satisfaction ? There are these five senses and there are so many objects of satisfaction through them . When you have not been satisfied with eating , you will be attracted to more food . Similarly if you are not satisfied in sexual looking , you will keep looking around with all kinds of sexual cravings . When a man has not been satisfied by a woman and vice versa , their chit would be stuck in sexuality . The Lord has called this moha , the illusion and the attachment . It gets stuck the moment you see what has not satisfied you . The chit gets stuck as soon as it sees a woman .
