Semen is very valuable to a yogi--just ask Muktananda Swami, who has written a great deal on this topic. I will tell you my take on all that: If a yogi can make his semen flow upwards to the brain instead of outwards and often for no purpose, he has attained the goal of yoga. and to the end of liberation, he practices celibacy, and this requires a set of uncommon skills. Here his determination, or will-power, is really unimportant, because this is not a matter of willpower, but of "plugging in" to the Vedic sage, Srila Prabhupada, who can encourage him when he fails, and who recites the Vedic hymns to him when he feels about tro "fall".
Though my life is fraught with failure, I never lose hope in the Greater Ideal--if I fall down, I am caught in the arms of Tulasidevi and Prabhupada, so I do not consider failure to be very bad--it is simply a consideration I have made---and seeing that I am already on the ground, I cannot fall anywhere or any further.
