Problems during Brahmacharya

The advent of illnesses related to the body, mind or psyche is normal in a person during the initial course of Brahmacharya. This occurs further to embedded toxins and impurities lodged within the system from past karma being expended. Unlike the normal man who suffers from disease or illness due to compromised immunity or weak health, the illness encountered by the Brahmachari is all together of a different kind. It does not occur due to lack of immunity but occurs further to the effect of a karmic toxin surfacing deep from within whilst being vacated. The increased accumulation of Prana within the system further to conversion of semen into Ojas pushes these toxins out of the system, just as water that is filling a tank makes objects in the bottom float up to the surface.

These are 'Karmic illnesses' and not of the normal type, though they may appear similar externally. The purification of the body and mind through these illnesses is something which should be welcomed and got done with, for the Almighty is expending these karmic debts without letting them flower into larger proportions and cause serious life long illnesses. These illnesses go away after some time when the karmic cause behind their presence gets expended. In any case, they are to be exhausted eventually and compulsorily in each and every man immaterial of whether he practices Brahmacharya or doesn't, and the sooner it is the better.

In addition to these, one may be made to learn 'life-lessons' where in, he encounters problems in both his material and spiritual life in the course of karma which gets expended from the 'Karana Sharira (causal body). All these changes, problems, illnesses and tough encounters through life situations are only the effects of working out of past karma and need not be a cause of worry. Their purpose is to unravel the layers of ignorance around the Jivatma (embodied soul) and make it learn from its mistakes so they are not repeated in future. All these effects are intended to make man come closer to his true self and awaken to the absolute reality by getting over 'Maya' (cosmic illusion). The firm and devoted Brahmachari eventually gets free of all problems and shines well in both his spiritual and even his material life if he so desires as long as the practice is maintained with honesty and devotion to the Lord and never given up.
