Why does it say in the rehat maryada that masturbating is a sin then?

Sat Nam! Anything that becomes an obsession takes over the mind and makes one forget God. Masturbation starts in the mind. What you do with your horniness is up to you. It is not just masturbation, but any obsession of the mind that keeps the mind attached to earthly things. The most important thing is to train your own mind through meditation. It is called pratyahar. The mind makes a wonderful servant and a lousy master. 'Man jeetai jag jeet!" Learn to control your mind, relax, and let Guru Ji show you how to serve him.
