Then, I would give him the agna and vow of brahmacharya and then the energy of my words will start working in him. His chit will not be distracted anymore. If a person practices brahmacharya and attains its full glory then it is a very big thing. What more one needs when, together with brahmacharya, he has 'Dada's Gnan', this * Akram Vignan'? This Akram Vignan alone is such that with its experience and the extraordinary result of the accomplished brahmacharya, one enjoys the bliss of an emperor of emperors. All the kings of the world will have to bow to him. Questioner : At the moment, even our neighbor does not salute us. [3] Importance of Brahmacharya Questioner : Which is better, practice of brahmacharya from childhood and unmarried or practice of brahmacharya after getting married? Dadashri : Brahmacharya since childhood is entirely a different thing. But what are child brahmacharis of today like? The times are bad these days. If you read about their life, you would get a headache right away. I will show you the way to practice brahmacharya if you want to. You have to follow that way.

To take a vow of brahmacharya and preserve it will occur only if your previous karmas are such. It can be preserved if your deep inner intent (bhaav) from previous life was so.

But this vow,agna cannot be given to everyone. I have given it to only few selected people. The agna of a Gnani has the power to change everything. The seeker of brahmacharya simply has to make a firm decision that no Questioner : Despite understanding, the mind still stays fascinated in all the vishayas, objects of enjoyments of the world. We understand what is right and what is wrong, and yet we cannot be free from these vishayas. What is the solution for this? Dadashri : True understanding is one that produces results. All other understanding is unfruitful. Questioner : What should one do to make this understanding fruitful? Dadashri : I will explain to you in detail. Then that understanding itself will continue to produce results. You do not have to do anything. In fact, you will ruin it if you try to meddle in it. The knowledge, the gnan, the understanding that produces results, is the right knowledge. If there is anything in this world that merits slander, it is
