Dear Karen,

 

Pranam.

 

>I certainly agree with you that celibacy should be practiced until

>marriage, but wouldn't the sex of one's children be fixed at birth and

>read from one's horoscope regardless of one's teenage sexual activity?

 

Well, we have read that so many factors depend on other's charts whom we

associate with, and activities we do in our lives can affect the results

there are indicated in our charts. To give an example, there may be

indications in a female horoscope to get 10 children, but if she marries a

person who is impotent, than she may not have any children at all.

>From what I have learned from the Vedic scriptures, it is so that if semen

is spoiled too much during young age, it becomes less powerful at the time

of conception to beget a male child, and usually female children will be

begotten. That's why brahmacarya (celibacy) is advised in the scriptures,

till the adulthood is reached.

AUM SRI GURUVE NAMAH

Dear Dhira Krsna dasa!

 

Here are some points to consider...

Sarajit: Just think the same women who comes to you with her horoscope to you

and you see that there are indications of 10 children and there are no issues

to her. What would you conclude then. If the indications in the chart doesn't

happen, what is the point in deciphering the horoscope. Did you see any

horoscope which has excellent 5th house and strong putrakaraka, there is no

issue to that native. No, it is not possible......

 

This is a common saying that the marriage, deaths and evets like that are fixed

in heaven. The marriage which one undergo and the person who becomes the spouse

is not a mere accident, but that is predestined. Under circumastances you

mentioned, it would so happen that the woman who has indications of 10 children

will marry a man who can beget 10 children. The indications in an horoscope

cannot go so wary otherwise the jyotish will lose consistency and there

wouldn't be any point in interpreting charts as would never be sure, whats

going to happen.

In scriptures, brahmacharya is not only advised till the adulthood is reached

but through out the life. Brahmacharya in true sense is detachment from

pleasure seeking attitude. There is no concept of pleasure in Hindu Phylosophy,

whatever there is only duties and obligations. Sex is allowed only to meet one

such obligation, i.e., to take forward your own Vamsa. Moreovee, sex is not

allowed before adulthood also because thats the time when we make ourselves fit

to meet next obligations (Grahatya ashrama), and this is the time for tapasya or

penance.

 

No medical literature will support your arguement that excessive sex would lead

to female children. Even if that is true, then the persons involved in

excessive sex will be married to the women whose horoscope shows female

children through divine provedence.

 

These are my humble thoughts. You may reject them if you wish to.

 

Pranaam
