Buddhism is the path to get Nirwana (End the cycle of life). According to my knowledge Buddhism is not restricting any activity but teaching how it will affect to the path of Nirwana. If someone obligate with something which make affection to life, Buddhism describe it as not to do. For an example lust will make affection to this life cycle. So if someone has lust for someone or something, he/she will not able to understand the impermanence of life.

In Buddhism, there are three types of kamma (action), namely: (i) bodily; (ii) verbal; and (iii) mental; each of which have results. Therefore, habitually merely visually observing pleasurable objects will making craving, addiction & the resultant restlessness grow. Thus, the Jesus teaching is similar to Buddhism; because viewing a woman with sexual objectification both grows craving, enslavement & is an error of moral-view (lacking of compassion & not considering harmful consequences).
