a marriage devoid of love does not create a spiritual bond …… a bond which is only possible with the presence of love。
a harmony； a rapport； a music necessary to give birth to a great soul is not created between the man and the woman。
the love between them is merely a consequence of panionship。
there is no meeting of souls in their love； none of the movement that brings two beings together into oneness。
children born of a marriage without love can never be loving； can never be godlike。
they will be more like ghosts and evil spirits； their lives will be filled with anger； hatred； and violence。
even a little thing makes the difference； an incredible difference； if there is no harmony； no rapport between the man and the woman。
perhaps it may not have occurred to you why women look more beautiful than men； why there is such roundness； such shapeliness in women。
why isnt the same seen in men？ it may not have occurred to you why there is a music； an inner dance apparent in the being of a woman； and which is not seen in man。
the reason is very simple； not very big really。
the reason is so small you cant even imagine that the enormous difference between man and woman is based on something so tiny。
the first cell in the mothers womb contains twenty…four chromosomes of the man and twenty…four chromosomes of the woman。
with the meeting of two cells； each containing twenty…four chromosomes； the first cell of forty…eight chromosomes is created。
with the union of forty…eight chromosomes a female body is formed …… both sides of its scale containing twenty…four chromosomes each； balanced。
but the first cell of a male child consists of only forty…seven chromosomes …… twenty…four on one side and twenty…three on the other。
right here the imbalance is created； the harmony is broken。
both sides of a womans being are well balanced； hence the whole beauty of a woman …… her shapeliness； her art； the juice of her personality； the poetry of her personality。
there is a slight deficiency in the personality of man。
one side of his scale is made up of twenty…four chromosomes。
the cell he receives from the mother contains twenty…four chromosomes and the cell received from the father consists of twenty…three chromosomes。
thus； when the twenty…four chromosomes of the mother meet the twenty…three of the father； the male body is formed。
this is the reason why man remains so restless； so intensely discontented throughout his life。
he is always anxious； always worried about what to do and what not to do； whether to do this or to do that。
all this restlessness begins with a very small incident； having one chromosome less on one side of the scale。
man is imbalanced。
a woman is fully balanced。
the harmony； the rhythm is plete in her。
such a small occurrence brings such an enormous difference； although because of it the woman could bee beautiful but she could not grow。
an even personality does not grow； it remains stagnant。
the personality of man is uneven； hence you see him racing ahead； growing。
he climbs everest； crosses mountains； lands on the moon； reaches the stars。
he searches and investigates。
he thinks； writes books； gives birth to religion。
a woman does nothing of this kind。
she wont climb everest； land on the moon or stars； nor will she search for religions； write books or make discoveries in science。
she wont do anything。
the balance in her personality does not fill her with the passion to transcend。
it is man who has given rise to human civilizations …… and all because of one small matter： he lacks one chromosome。
woman has not developed civilizations because her personality is plete； there is no chromosome lacking。
such a small phenomenon can cause such an enormous difference in personality！ i am pointing this out because this is just a biological occurrence； because one can biologically see how such a little difference gives birth to personalities so different in character。
but there are other； more profound inner differences as well。
the child born out of the union of a man and a woman shows how deeply they are in love with each other； how much spirituality exists between them； and with how much purity and prayerfulness they have e together。
on this depends how superior； how great the soul is which is attracted towards them； how great the divine consciousness is which makes that body its place of residence。
the human race is being increasingly miserable and unhappy。
deep down； the distortion of the marital relationship is the cause。
until we have redefined the meaning of marital life and brought it to a healthy state； until we have refined it； spiritualized it； we cannot improve the future of mankind。
in this unfortunate state of affairs； those who have denounced the householders life and those who have made a great fuss over the life of renunciation are equally responsible。
once the householders life was condemned； we stopped thinking in that direction altogether。
this is not right。
i would like to say to you that very few people can reach god through the path of renunciation。
a very small number of people； some special type； a few individuals of a totally different kind； reach through the path of renunciation。
most people reach god through the path of the householder and through marital relationship。
the strange thing is that even though it is simple and easy to reach through the householders path； no attention has yet been paid to it。
up to now； religion has suffered from the extreme influence of those who have renounced the world。
religion could not evolve for the benefit of the householder。
had it been evolved for the sake of the householder； before the very first moment of birth we would have considered what kind of soul we wanted to invite； what kind of soul we wanted to beckon； what type of soul we wanted to allow to enter life。
if religion could be taught rightly； and if every individual could be given right thought； right concept and vision； within twenty years we can create a totally new generation of men。
one who enters into sex without first extending a loving invitation to the ining soul is a sinner。
he is a criminal； and his children are illegitimate even though they may be born in wedlock。
that man who has not given birth to his children with an utterly prayerful and reverent heart is a criminal …… and he will remain a criminal before all generations。
our entire future depends upon what kind of soul enters the womb。
we care about childrens education； about their clothes； about their health and nutrition； but we have pletely given up on caring about what kind of soul a child would have。
we cannot hope for a better human race this way。
so there is no need to worry much about how to enter another body； rather； be concerned about how you have entered this very body of yours。
in this respect； a friend has asked：
question 3
can we know about past lives？
we can certainly know about our past lives； but at present you know nothing even about this life。
knowing past lives is far more difficult。
man can； of course； know about his past lives；
