Ask a diabetic why he is taking that sugary food, he knows it is bad for him.
When a person is lusting after something, he blocks out the things he knows about, in order to obtain his object of desire. Knowledge can help before someone even gets aroused.

i think the answer to the spoiler is a known idea,and that is , there is reuvan and shimon, reuvan grew up being taught that its forbidden to look at women etc...shimon  on the other hand grew up among goyim and had the mindset of a  goy, nothings wrong ,nothings asur etc,one day shimon sees something in the street and looks, yanky approaches shimon and says ,why did you look at that lady,doesnt reuvan know that its forbidden?shimon will look at yanky and ask what does reuvans  knowledge have to do with me?

The same exact thing is with us , we have a seichel, brain(reuvan) ,it knows,it has the knowledge that looking is forbidden,the heart(shimon) which controls our actions[in chazals lashon,the melech of all the ayvarim is the heart] has the desire to look and DOES NOT HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE THAT IT IS FORBIDDEN! and the fact that reuvan (the brain) knows ,it does not affect the ignorant heart(shimon)

Whats OUR job, to take that knowledge in the brain and to send it to the heart until not only the brain knows it but also the heart knows it , and when the heart knows that its wrong to look, youll see a MAJOR difference in what you do in the street.
VIYADATA HAYOM, VIHASHAYVOSA EL LIVVECHA-YOU SHOULD know ths idea, and send  it to the heart, dont let it just remain  in the brain,and THATS  what learning musar accomplishes.

i dont mean it as a shtoch,just translating the words  of ru`ach shtus roughly.

However when I am insane, then unfortunately yes, I will act out, (borrowing from your lexicon) "feces and all".


you mean to say 'however when i am insane "-from the ruach shtus?

For me it's the fact that I care more about myself than I do that it's assur.
In other words, it's a lot easier for me to live with disobeying God than it is to live with my life and emotions.

Call it ruach shtus, call it insanity... whatever you want. For me I don't think it's a lack of knowledge in my heart.

reuvan(the brain) KNOWS that znus is feces, reuvan (the heart)however thinks its beutiful and therefore chases after it,meaning the person does(action controlled by the heart)something that  the brain knows  is wrong ,disgusting.and this is the answer to the question in the spoiler Warning: Spoiler!

I just want to clarify that I do not mean to claim insanity as lawyers try to do for their clients. I take full responsibility of my actions even when I am insane. I will be held responsible for allowing myself to reach the level of ruach shtus.

I'm sorry ieeyc, I know I pointed this out myself at the beginning of your thread but I keep forgetting this is the T&C board. And even if it wasn't, you're more than welcome, even encouraged, to explain what has helped you. I just saw your question of why we do what is forbidden and wrote my answer. Then remembered this is probably the wrong board for that sort of discussion.
Apologies again, by all means keep posting, I'd like to hear your thoughts.

I actually find that this feces method keeps me out of my wife's bed, and that's a good thing (especially when she's in the forbidden state, but even when not)! So, keep on chiziking please.
i'm all about that (substantial) bass, no trouble ....
