CONVERSATIONS
WITH SRI SRI THAKUR: PRATUL-DIPTI (BY SRI MANILAL CHAKRABORTY):
SATURDAY, JULY 29, 1961: PART 3: UNION OF MALES AND FEMALES; PAST LIFE
MEMORIES
Next there was a topic regarding the union of males and females.
Sri Sri Thakur, “There is no union between a crow and a cuckoo. A yellow bird does not unite with a sparrow. Even the sparrow of London will not meet with an Indian yellow bird. Instinct has its own intelligence. The cow does not eat the leaves of the sugar apple tree but a goat will eat them. If they are taken by a cow, it will think it is going to die. I think that instinct comes from intelligence. Every species has separate limitations. According to those limitations intelligence works. In order to weave a web a spider instinctively knows how much space is needed. Everyone tries to protect his own existence. Even the birds try to maintain their existence. Once in Pabna I saw hunter shoot a female bird. The male bird tried to snatch away the fallen bird several times but it was unsuccessful. The male bird tried its utmost to save the female bird. It was flying up and down with painful cries and at last it surrendered at the feet of the hunter. Intelligence of the lower class animals is always an instinct. An animal can perform the play of instinct in many ways in various places. A cuckoo has not the intelligence to meet with a yellow bird. Its intelligence is not the same. But they eat and move in the same way.”
Chunilal Roychoudhuryda, “Even a crane having passionate longing for lust never runs after a cuckoo because of instinct. But people, possessing free will, misuse it too much.”
Sri Sri Thakur, “You suffer miserably because of your advanced intelligence over the yellow bird. ‘Free will’ is ‘dear will’, ‘loving will’.
Harinandan Prasadda, “Thakur, is the memory of our past lives charged in the sperm?”
Sri Sri Thakur, “Yes, sometimes it is latent and sometimes it is active.”
After this Sri Sri Thakur gave some messages. Almost every day He gave messages both in prose and poetry on different subjects and from various points of view. These messages were like constantly flowing nectar. It seemed that they were unending waves of ideas. Whenever the ideas flashed in Sri Sri Thakur’s mind, they sprouted forth as messages.
