28. Types of Pious Abstinence
“Who is the truly valorous individual? The one who conquers his base instincts.” Pious abstinence consists of three main ingredients: abstinence in the realm of pleasures, abstinence in the realm of laws, and abstinence in the realm of conduct.

27. Abstinence and Permissible Pleasures (Cont.)
