so mahavira and buddha gave initiation only after one had relived his past lives。
mahaviras teaching was that until you have relived your past lives； you cannot drop your serious attitude。
if a man were to remember once； 〃i had made love to a woman in my previous birth and had told her； i cant live without you even for a moment
。
and the same i had done and said the life before that； and the same thing the life previous to that one。
even before i was born a human being i had repeated the same act； whether i was an animal or a bird： i have been doing and saying the same things all along。
〃 and then if he were to say all this to a woman today； he will burst out laughing； because now he knows he can live very well without her …… in fact he has been living for lives without any problem。
someone had wanted to attain a high position in his past life and had bee like an emperor。
he had thought that once he attained the highest honor everything would be fine。
but it was all in vain。
the poor fellow died。
it was the same story the life before that； and the one previous to that。
and the same man is once again racing to delhi in search of a position。
if he were to remember his past lives just before reaching delhi； he would turn back realizing the absurdity of the whole thing。
he would laugh； seeing how many times he went to delhi； and how each time ultimately the mad scramble ended up in death。
man wants to repeat all he has been doing in his previous lives； but he has no memory of it。
if he could remember it even once； it would be impossible for him to do it again。
no man can really bee a sannyasin until he has realized the whole world as nothing but a dream。
but how can this world look like a dream？ the key to that lies in jati…smaran； remembering past lives。
so； go back into the memories of this birth …… but not just out of curiosity。
only when you have seen this life as a dream and feel the burden lifted from your mind； and only after you have gained the capacity to see the previous lives as a dream too； can this key be given to you。
however； it will be a one…to…one munication。
the techniques i am working on with you collectively are such that they cant harm you。
whatsoever i am saying publicly are things which can lead only up to a point where it is safe for you。
beyond that； the munication of sutras will be strictly on an individual basis。
hence with those who will progress fast； i will start sharing things which otherwise cannot be told openly in public。
as soon as such people bee ready； those things can be imparted to them。
but that will be absolutely in person； individually。
there is no point talking about them before everyone。
question 2
what are the distinguishing features that make a womb worthy enough to receive a higher soul； and what are the characteristics of a womb in which an inferior soul may enter？ what preparations are necessary in order that a higher soul may descend？ how are the preparations made？ as pared to ordinary wombs； how special were the wombs that carried great souls like buddha； mahavira； krishna； and jesus？
many things will have to be considered。
the first thing is： the purer the moment of lovemaking is； the purer the soul a womb can attract。
but sex has been condemned so much that the moment of copulation hardly ever bees a divine moment。
sex has already been branded as sacrilegious。
it is already rooted in our consciousness as something impure。
the sexual union between husband and wife takes place in the shadows of sin； it does not transpire in a worshipful moment of prayer and bliss。
naturally； it is not possible for a pure soul to be attracted toward a womb surrounded by a cloak of sin。
so in order that a higher soul may enter a womb； the first condition is that it be a divine moment of lovemaking。
in my view； the moment of sexual union is a moment of prayer。
only after prayer and meditation should the husband and wife enter into sex。
the result will be twofold。
one is that after meditation it wont be possible for them to enter into sex for years。
the first thing that will happen after meditation is that you wont be able to enter sex。
as you will go into meditation； the desire for sex will disappear …… meditation will bee the way to celibacy。
years will go by without sex。
the purity ensuing from these bygone years will not be the product of a suppressed sex。
it wont be the result of any vow taken by the husband and wife both practicing celibacy by sleeping separately in locked rooms； or the husband sleeping in the temple all by himself。
this celibacy will not be the consequence of a vow； rather it will be a spontaneous flowering。
it is simply impossible to enter sex after meditation。
meditation gives so much joy； such bliss； that why would one care for the pleasures of sex？
if husband and wife can meditate regularly for years； they wont be able to enter sex。
that will have a twofold effect。
one； the energy will bee very dynamic and intense。
a very potent sperm is needed in order to give birth to a pure soul。
weak sperms wont do。
only an intercourse which is preceded by years of celibacy can be effective in allowing a powerful soul to enter the womb。
after years of meditation when someone goes into sex …… that is； when meditation makes him petent to enter into sex …… then naturally it will have to be a divine moment； because if there had been even a slight impurity left in that moment； meditation would not have given the go…ahead。
when meditation gives the mand …… that is； when the possibility to enter sex exists even after one has been in meditation …… then it means that even sex has taken on a sacredness。
now it has a divineness of its own。
when two individuals make love in this divine moment； it would be better to say the union is not physical； it is very spiritual。
the bodies are meeting； yet the meeting is not physical …… it is very profound and spiritual。
so giving birth to a divine soul is not merely a biological phenomenon。
the meeting of two bodies simply provides an opportunity for another body to ta
