I think I once saw (maybe in Sefer Chassidim) that once upon a time some bochurim dormed in the house of a great sage, and they noticed next to their beds were prepared huge basins of cold water. When they asked their host, he explained, "You guys are young boys, and may be overcome by lust, so you can take a dip in the cold water to relieve the pressure."

Which reminds me: I once went to a mekubal to discuss these issues, and he gave me some advice. One solution was to take a cold shower each morning. (No it didn't help.)

Actually, he is a legitimate guy, with letters of recommendation from many many gedolim. He helped me with Sholom Bayis and Chinuch issues, but as we all know, addictions die hard. So although that's what I really went for, but that part was not resolved (at that time). MT

Posts: 1263 Karma: 35	Didn't kabbalists blow a shofar on a plane by the (fake) dybbuk a few years ago? I suppose the real question is if the took a cold shower first. Wait a second.Was that your plane?
