Brahmcharya
Questioner : But he has brought all that from his previous
life has he not?
Dadashri : His chit’s repeated going there is not something
that he has brought from his previous life. But afterwards he
loses control over his chit, when it keeps slipping from his hands
even when he does not want to go there. That is why it is better
if these boys live with an inner intent of practicing brahmacharya.
Then whatever sexual discharge occurs either during the day or
night is all really a discharge. If these young adults are involved
in a sexual activity even once, they will have dreams about it
day and night.
Have you not experienced, that if your chit goes into sex,
you cannot focus properly?
Questioner : If the chit has touched even a bit of the
vibrations of sexual impulses then it would not remain still for a
long time.
Dadashri : Therefore, what I am trying to say is that you
can travel anywhere in the world. If nothing in the world
captivates your chit, then you are truly independent. For years
I have seen that nothing captivates my chit and therefore I know
that I have become completely independent. There is nothing
wrong with bad thoughts that may arise, but your chit should
never be captivated by anything.
However much the tendencies of the chit wander, that
much the self has to wander. Wherever the chit’s tendencies go,
you will have to go with them. Chit draws a map. It draws a
map of comings and goings of your next life. You then have to
follow that map. Therefore, where do all the tendencies of the
chit go?
Questioner : Chit does not get captivated everywhere,
but if it does in a certain place, then is there a previous account
there?
