Brahmcharya
Dadashri : If you think that as account of the past life
then the whole world would be considered an account of the
past life. But attraction occurs because there is an account of
subatomic particles between the two. At the moment the
attachment that arises is not really an attachment. If there is a
needle and a magnet, and if the magnet is turned then the needle
would start moving, although there is no life in the two. Yet,
because of the quality of the magnet there is attraction between
the two. Similarly, when there are suitable atoms in the body,
attraction occurs with that person. There is a magnet in the
other. There is an electric body in this. Just as the magnet
attracts metal and not any other metals, the attraction occurs
only between certain bodies. It is because of electricity that
these atoms arise and are attracted. Just like the needle and the
magnet, did anyone else get involved? Did we teach the needle
to start jumping up and down in the vicinity of a magnet?
Therefore, this body is all a science. Everything occurs
scientifically. Now, when attraction takes place, one would say,
‘ I am attracted’. Does the Self get attracted or attached? The
Self is vitarag, eternally unattached. The Self is beyond
attachment and abhorrence. This is all an illusion and if this
illusion leaves, there is nothing.
Questioner : Is there a need for pratikraman for
attraction?
Dadashri : But of course! If attraction or repulsion occurs
to this body then you have to tell Chandubhai, ‘Chandubhai,
attraction is occurring therefore do pratikraman’, then the
attraction would stop. Both, attraction and repulsion are the
causes for wandering life after life.
