demerit karma.
Questioner : What is the reward for someone who encourages brahmacharya, gives encouragement to brahmacharis and aids them in every way?
Dadashri : What do we want to do with the reward? We want to attain liberation after only one more life, then where are you going to store the reward? You may be rewarded with hundred wives. What are you going to do with such a reward? You do not want to enjoy such a reward.
So, he had already asked me, 'All this that I am doing now, would it bind merit karma?' I told him that he would not bind any karma. At this time all this is in the form of discharge and all the seeds have been roasted in the Gnan Vidhi.
Questioner : All these people who become brahmacharis, is brahmacharya in their discharge?
Dadashri : Yes, it is in their discharge. But along with this discharge they have an inner intent, and that is a charge. It is because of this inner intent that the brahmacharya remains strong. Otherwise discharge would always weaken it. And with the inner intent that he wants to practice brahmacharya, strength is maintained. The only doer ship in this Akram Vignan, is that of following the Agnas that I have given you. Anything that has to be followed, there is doer ship in it. Therefore in, 'I want to practice brahmacharya' there is doer ship. Otherwise brahmacharya is a discharge.
Questioner : But, is practicing brahmacharya a doer ship?
Dadashri : Yes, to practice' is doer ship. And the fruit of this doer ship will be the Real merit deed (the merit deed that
takes you towards liberation) in your next life. That means that, in your next life, you will receive whatever you wish without any difficulty and with all that ease attain moksha. You can have the darshan of tirthankaras and you can also get a chance to stay next to the tirthankara. There, all your circumstances will be very wonderful
Questioner : What is the connection between fasting on Sunday and practicing brahmacharya?
Dadashri : What is fasting on Sunday for? It is to oppose and confront sexuality. You do not want sexuality to come to you; therefore by confronting proactively you begin to become free from sexual impulses. I make him confront sex because he cannot let go of sex. These are all melons, these are all simmering melons of kaliyug. You cannot let go of anything, leave alone sexuality, and therefore you have to find some bold means do you not?
Actually, this science is such that I should not have to tell you, 'You do this and you do that, but this era of the time cycle is such that I have to. These peoples' ultimate outcome is uncertain. They may go on to the wrong path, after acquiring the Gnan, and that is why I have to say this. There are no problems when power of my words is present and working in them. Then they do not bear any responsibility of doer ship if they follow my words. When I say, 'You do this', then you are not responsible and my responsibility does not remain because I am the eternal non-doer.
Now who would leave this unique state for which there are no words good enough for praise? Who would touch the refuse of the whole world when there is Gnan? The Gnani Purush sees all the vishayas, objects of enjoyment of the world,
