Dadashri : Analyzing the sexual event means, do the
eyes like it? Do the ears like it when they hear it? And does it
taste sweet if the tongue licks it? None of the senses like it. The

‘By conquering sex, you have conquered the worldly life,
Just as by conquering the King you have conquered the
army, kingdom and power.’
- Shrimad Rajchandra
You will get everything, the army, the city and the power
when you conquer the King.
Questioner : After acquiring Gnan from you, can we
completely get rid of the seeds of sex right away in this life?
Dadashri : Everything can be done. No new seeds are
sowed for the next life. Wash away the old seeds that already
exist, and new seeds will not be sown.
Questioner : Does that mean that we will not have any
thoughts of sex, in the next life?
Dadashri : No, you will not. If a few were left from the

Questioner : Whom can you call a shilvaan person?
Dadashri : A person who does not have any thought of

attachment or greed, is a shilvaan.
