Gratitude

I would like to express my gratitude towards your intensely profound and true answers here on brahmacharya. Supreme manifested as your answers to myself as I was being troubled to sustain a virtue of purity, which is troublesome mostly for the fact I've been a hedonistic sexoholic for most of my short incarnaction here on Earth having sex with hundreds of women in the past. I'm a 28 year old devotee of Ramana Maharshi currently planning a trip to India to further my relation with him and offer him and Arunachala Shiva gratitude for guiding me.

My question to you would be - should there be any way to cut through astral tubes I have dishonorably "collected" through my former life of lust and manipulation? Some might say it lasts for a minimum of 12 years pretty much sabotaging much of our life's efforts to cleanse spiritually and with no conscious effort for eradication further imprint themselves in our subconscious as vasanas or so say my master.

I've been visualizing cutting through them with a sword in meditation as I find this intuitively helpful, but perhaps you could offer me some insight I could integrate into my practice.

Huge gratitude to your work here and may the grace of supreme never cease to fall on you. I greet you from Poland.
