According to [[Christian]] views, lust is a consequence of the separation of a person from [[God]] as a result of [[sin]], causing them to fall short of His standard. Some churches attribute lust to direct [[satan]]ic involvement, or advocate various means by which unwanted lust may be controlled.

According to [[Buddhist]] views, lust is one of the "Three Poisons" ([[Greed]]-Lust, [[Anger]]-[[Hatred]], [[Ignorance]]) and is a consequence of the separation of a person from the [[Buddha]] way of [[compassion|compassionate]] [[virtue]] and separation from [[wisdom]] as a result of breaking the [[Five Precepts]] ([[sin]]ning), ultimately causing them to fall to a [[hell|lower realm]] if not repented of and one's attitude and behavior not reformed. Buddhist [[scripture]]s (Sutras) also attribute lust to direct [[satan]]ic or [[demon]]ic involvement. Buddhism advocates various means by which unwanted lust may be controlled such as the [[Five Precepts]], the [[Five_Precepts#Repentance_via_the_Four_Opponent_Powers|Four Opponent Powers]] and the [[Five_Precepts#Five_Precepts_are_Part_of_the_Ten_Perfections_of_the_Altruistic_Attitude|Ten Perfections]].

The word 'lust' can also be used more generally to describe any intemperate or excessive desire, for example, lust for power, lust for fame, or personal glory, is highly synonymous with the personality trait of narcissism.
