realize it when it is exposed. It is all filth covered with a ‘silk
cloth’. It is a betrayal. One does not remember all this and that
is why he finds himself in this predicament. And what will a
covetous man do? In his intense greed (lalacha), if the woman
tells him to lick the pus coming out of a boil on her arm, he will
do it! Even dogs would not lick in this way! That is avarice and
intense greed (lalacha). His ego will not bother him there; it will
not arise to question, ‘How can I do this? The hell with it, I do
not want this.’ Intense greed (lalacha) can kill a person. The
rule is that if a person eats a lot of onions, he will not be able
to smell onions even if he is sitting next to them. And the person
who does not eat them will be able to smell it even if he is sitting
three rooms away. Similarly, a covetous person is completely
impervious and unaware.
Sex means bestiality! It is a sign of animalistic behavior. Is
it a human behavior? Sex should only be for having two or three
children. After that, is sex even meant for humans?
Conflicts because of it
Questioner: When a person is not successful in his
intense greed (lalacha) for sex, does he not start becoming
suspicious?
Dadashri: He will do everything when he does not
succeed. He will become suspicious and have negative thoughts
disguised in many ways. After that, may the Lord have mercy on
him! It will give rise to further avarice but on top of that, it will
disgrace him. Once it takes control over him, it will disgrace him
without fail.
There is absolutely no relation with the ‘wife’ through the
mind, body, thoughts or speech and so a man should not behave
like he owns her or try to boss her around (do dhanipanu;
dominate as a husband). What is considered dhanipanu? It is
considered dhanipanu, as long as he maintains a bestial
relationship through his mind, speech and body.
