The Significance Of Mormon Religious Undergarments

Mormon undergarments are sometimes mocked with the epithet magick underwear. Here is the true significance of this “magick underwear”:

There has been quite a debate about LDS ceremonial garments, routinely called “Mormon undergarments”. The use and purpose of these garments have been attacked, degraded, condemned and maligned by those who are “anti-Mormon” …

The wearing of these garments can provide the faithful a feeling that is positive, good and holy. In the same way that proper fasting provides for faith. The proper state of mind is to promote a goodness, a focus and thought that encourages purity, sanctity and holiness. Is this not an invitation to the Gift of the Holy Ghost?

…a person who desires the spirit of modesty and chastity will appreciate these garments. It is this chastity that promotes the right spirit within the heart and mind and that leads a person to walk in focus and worship as per the first commandment from Jesus Christ.

Essentially, the wearing of these “Mormon Undergarments” places one’s mind and heart into a focus of chastity and purity…

The law of chastity is a moral code defined by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). According to the church, chastity means abstinence from sexual relations before marriage, and complete fidelity to one’s husband or wife during marriage

A kabbalist site refers to chastity as making one holy:

In the traditional teachings of the mormon church masturbation is seen as a sin and there has been a guide published on how to overcome masturbation:

We are taught that our bodies are temples of God, and are to be clean so that the Holy Ghost may dwell within us. Masturbation is a sinful habit that robs one of the Spirit and creates guilt and emotional stress. It is not physically harmful unless practiced in the extreme. It is a habit that is totally self-centered, secretive, and in no way expresses the proper use of the procreative power given to man to fulfill eternal purposes. It therefore separates a person from God and defeats the gospel plan.
