Feb 26, 2019 at 4:18 comment added user17294 So throwing garbage on earth is sin, burning a dead body on earth is sin as we can not do these on mother's lap.
Aug 14, 2018 at 4:30 comment added ram @TatTvamAsi, why do you differentiate at the cell level, why not ask 'does each molecule have atman', or 'does each limb have atman' ? there can be infinite number of atman within a body, there can even be infinite number of atman within one cell itself but the yejamaan, or owner, of the body is only one atman. all others are in sleeping state.
Aug 13, 2018 at 17:05 comment added Crackling Cyclone @ram yeah I know the story of the birth of matsyagandhi or satyavadi. But I actually want to know, if each cell has Atman, then there are infinite number of Atman in a body?
Aug 13, 2018 at 16:45 comment added ram @TatTvamAsi, probably, but it need not even be at cell level, could even be at atomic level, because it is so Sukshma. Whether an atman gets a body, what type of body it gets, are all dependent on its karma, and enforced by Bhagavan. A atman inside a cell inside a goat's body, could get birth as a fish if that cell came out, and entered fish's womb. In Mahabharata, the veerya of king Uparicharavasu was held by a fish, hence Matsyagandhi was born.
Aug 13, 2018 at 7:25 comment added Crackling Cyclone @ram so you mean each and every cell has an Atman?
Aug 13, 2018 at 4:13 comment added ram @TatTvamAsi, yes atman is present in the male seed. But i didn't say it is present ONLY in the male seed. it is there in grains in plants.so, even if woman eats it, it is inside her. except it doesn't get birth unless it goes through man, until now. With cloning, they take a cell (from the woman, which could have the atman), and inject it into the egg, and stimulate it to divide, thus giving 'birth'.
Aug 11, 2018 at 18:45 comment added Crackling Cyclone @ram If atman is always there in the male seed, then what about cloning? Cloning requires only ovaries.
Dec 22, 2016 at 18:46 comment added ram what is Dharma shastra view on having ritu with wife when she is pregnant?
Dec 22, 2016 at 6:38 comment added Yogi @ram I think your argument(for waiting till 2 months) is against Dharma Shastra view hinduism.stackexchange.com/a/16061/489 since they dictate every person to go into ritugamana and even in mahabharata it is said that a person who does not give ritu to his wife is a sinner.
Dec 22, 2016 at 0:39 comment added ram @Yogi, atman is always present in beej (seed) i.e. it is there in father's body for 2 months before it enters mother's womb during conception. and if signs of pregnancy take even longer, that means man-woman must wait even longer between cohabitations.

Nov 23, 2016 at 10:25 comment added Yogi @ram I think that 2 months rule is more exaggerated one. I don't know in which phase of zygote atman enters womb, so it may more than 2 months when the signs of pregnancy becomes clear.
Jul 24, 2016 at 6:09 comment added ram @Student, since pregnancy/life begins at conception (garbhadana), and since one should not cohabit with pregnant wife, and since cohabitation should only be done for sake of procreation, that means husband and wife must wait for 2 months between each cohabitation to ensure wife did not become pregnant from previous time. And since most people only want 2 kids, that means a husband & wife would only join in cohabitation twice or thrice during their married life.
Jul 21, 2016 at 14:49 comment added Student Let us continue this discussion in chat.
Jul 21, 2016 at 14:42 comment added Student @Yogi Yeah, I understand what you were saying. I know only a few of the rules. Chaturdhi, Shashti, Ashtami, Chaturdashi, Poornima, Amavasya are not good. Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are good. The stars Moola, Magha, Revati, Jyeshta are rejected. Bharani, Krittika, Aslesha, Ardra, Purva Phalguni, Purvashadha, PurvaBhadra, Visakha stars are medium. All other stars are good. Chandrabalam should be good. But I donot know what is Chandrabalam. These are some of the rules prescribed for Garbhadanam. I took it from Dharma Sindhu in telugu
Jul 21, 2016 at 14:08 comment added Yogi plan on mamy auspicious days Is not the way there are restricted days like ekadashi which is for worshipping bramhan. and the plan should be for the child not for the pleasure plus add some citations of what are the Many rules because this topic is so much exploited by the people nowadays.
Jul 21, 2016 at 14:01 comment added Student @Yogi Yes, you are definitely right. I also mentioned the statement in the answer that "mating with wife has many rules prescribed". Considering this point only I said Enjoy which does not mean that one can do whenever he wants or whenever he feels urge. Stick to the rules, Plan on an auspicious day, Enjoy the process and release likely resulting a child. Plan on many auspicious days frequently and enjoy with wife. Though what I say does not give anyone the enjoyment one wishes these days, practically it can take longer duration between two intercourses.
Jul 21, 2016 at 13:53 comment added Yogi @Student Vaishnavism or srivaishnavism and pancharatra agams say it is sin to do the act for purpose of enjoyment. Well technically the egg should be released before the expiration so just the act doesnot result in child birth. pancharatra agams say that careful analysis of astrology and time constraints should be done before doing the act. it makes clear statement that the act if done without such spectulation and aim then it is a sin resulting in anartha.
Jul 21, 2016 at 13:46 comment added Student @Yogi One can enjoy with one's own wife, there is nothing wrong. Care should be taken not to release semen or if released, it should be in her womb. Enjoy and Ejaculate without resulting in a child is not possible. This is one of the reasons why our ancestors used to have many number of children in the numbers of tens
Jul 21, 2016 at 13:45 comment added Yogi @TheDestroyer yeah I understood thst point made by student.
Jul 21, 2016 at 13:42 comment added Yogi so then it is not wrong to have intercourse with other intentions then begetting child that is for pure pleasure purposes?
Jul 21, 2016 at 13:36 comment added The Destroyer @Yogi I think contraceptive method is recent one. As said by Student, it is indirectly a sin according to above Puranas.
Jul 21, 2016 at 13:36 comment added Student @Yogi The answer is clear, but I will make an explicit statement. Contraception does not bring you any good, because even then the semen has to go to earth or water which is a sin. That is why I made the statement "the only kshetra to place one's semen is his wife's womb"

Jul 21, 2016 at 13:29 comment added Yogi thanks for a comprehensive answer, so you agree that using contraceptive is a sin please make it clear? and there is no question of mating parastri. The main point is weather using contraceptive and having intercourse for pleasure other than begetting child is a sin or not, and what do dharmashastras say about that.
