Brahmcharya 73 Humans lose their human-ness with abrahmacharya. The world does not understand what sex is. Millions of lives die in only one act of sexthrough the loss of millions of living sperms. This is tremendous violence. Not realizing this, people believe sexual act to be the highest pleasure. They do not understand that a life is precious and must not be lost except as a last resort.

That is why I say that I have liberated you even though you have a wife. No one has made this, so simple for you. A very simple andstraightforward path has been given to you. It is up to you to make the fullest use of it for your good. It is extremely simple. This has never happened before. This is the pure path, acceptable to the Lord. Questioner : If the wife has no desire, no fever, what should she do if she has to take the ‘medicine’ given to her by force by her husband? Dadashri : What can she do? Who asked her to get married? Questioner : The fault is of the sufferer, accepted. But please Dada, please show me a way, and show me some way out of sex, by pratikraman, or something like that. Dadashri : Only through making him understand that Dada has said this is not something that you can keep taking. Why don’t we take this medicine six to eight times a month?
