it's not ocd. if you think about something a lot, it creates a habit. so now, even without trying, this habit creates more and more of these kinds of thoughts. now that the thoughts are there and you want to get rid of them, you focus on them even more. the more you focus on them, the more energy they are given. and so the cycle of thoughts happens even more. anytime you watch, read, think about, hang around with any person or thing that is somewhat sex promoting then that will reinforce the thoughts.

the best way to deal with it is to focus on other things. like naam/bani, seva, school/work, reading, working out, socialising. the thoughts will still come, and sometimes will even increase in frequency and make life difficult. the key is to keep your attention on other things as much as possible. know that it is normal for these thoughts to come. know that as you shift the focus of your life to other things you are no longer reinforcing the energy of these thoughts and that over time their frequency will decrease. but you still may get tested some days. eating healthier food, less junk and spicy food or food made by manmukhs will help.

most of all you need to be patient. ask god for bhukh (hunger) for naam and this hunger will eat up the dhukh (pain) caused to you by your thoughts

The first thing you are doing right is recognising that the thoughts are wrong. Our True state is Silence- no thoughts- we are actually Nothing- no image or form, no thoughts, no nothing. It is what God discovered Himself to be after many ages of contemplation.

The closer you are to the Truth, the more u practice the gyan of Gurbani-not read it, but actually Practice it, the more u shut your mind up- and its only when we begin to silence the mind that we start to just Feel within our being and to discover the reality around us-

Ur problem is your mind- if u recognise the thoughts as not belonging to u, but to Maya, to the <banned word filter activated> that is being practiced all around u by the fools, by the beings below and amongst us, the guilt will go, they are not your identity for u are Truth, u are Nothing.

When we practice Truth we begin to feel the energies of others, whether they are lust, parallel to lustful thoughts, anger and angry thoughts or the other thieves. We feel the energies because in reality, we are everything and everyone- we are the whole. We are good and bad, light and dark, the celebrity and the beggar- and the whole equals nothing which is the Truth.

God bless you.
