________________ Celibacy Celibacy sexual impulses", and the awareness will return. This is all you have to do, nothing else. This is science that can produce results right away and if you neglect it just a bit, you will be thrown in a different direction. Questioner: How does the awareness actually decrease? Dadashri : A veil of ignorance comes over him. The energy that protects and upholds brahmacharya is veiled. It becomes blunt. Therefore the awareness becomes dim. Once this energy that preserves brahmacharya becomes blunt, it is as good as being useless and it does not help. Then he suffers and he continues to suffer. Then the inner lawyers, the mind, the intellect will feed and nourish the wrong understanding, so much has been attained in this Gnan, there is no real problem now. Questioner : What energy is it that protects the energy of brahmacharya? Dadashri : Once you have slipped, then the energy that existed within the energy that would not allow you to slip, wears down and becomes weak. Just like a bottle of milk with a loose cork, if it is lying on its side the milk will flow out by itself, whereas before we had to remove the cork. [16] Five Pure People For Salvation You just have to decide that 'I do not want to slip', and if you slip then I have to forgive you. If ever anything deteriorates within for you, you must let me know immediately so that a solution can be found for it. It will not improve right away; there is always the possibility of deterioration. Until you know the consequences of your mistake, that mistake will keep recurring. Why does anyone not fall into a well? Why is it that lawyers make fewer mistakes? It is because they know that their mistakes will have consequences. Therefore you should be aware of consequences of your mistakes. You must, first find out the consequences of what you are doing wrong. For those who have constant contemplation of Dada, the Gnani, all 'locks' get unlocked, all the problems get solved. Oneness with Dada is contemplation. This occurs only when one has a lot of meritorious karma effect. Contemplation of the Gnani reaps direct fruits. That contemplation gives you energies similar to his. Gnani's Self-state is beyond imagination and yields unbelievable results. He can make you like him. Contemplation of the Gnani makes one absolutely independent. Thereafter you will not feel that, 'Today I did not have his satsang, I did not have his darshan'. With contemplation of the Gnani, you have to become as independent as a Gnani. Who, in this world, can obstruct the one who has made a very strong decision to be the instrument for the salvation of the world, for jagat kalyan? There is no power that can stop him. All the celestial gods of the universe shower him with flowers and bless him. Therefore, why don't you decide on that goal? From the moment you decide that, you would not have to worry about the requirements of your body. As long as any intent for anything worldly remains, you will have to worry about the requirements of your body. Look, how much prosperity and worldly ease this 'Dada' has. If there exists only this one desire, then one is blessed. And the authority of the celestial gods is with you. These gods do have very real power and authority that will continually help you. There is a need of only five people with this exclusive goal. In it there must not be anything else, no other subtle aims or desires. In times of difficulties or in sleep,Page Navigation
