NO RETURN TO THE ANIMAL FORM

Bal Natu

In the summer of 1959 Baba was staying at Guruprasad in Poona. My school had a long vacation, and Baba permitted me to stay with Him for six weeks. On some afternoons He visited Bindra House, where the Jessawalas resided, and the mandali used to accompany Him.

Previously Baba had advised a maidservant of the Jessawalas to give up the habit of petty thefts. Finding that she had again succumbed to the same weakness, He called her near. The delightful expression on His face vanished and with a stern look He gestured; "If you commit a theft again, you will be born as a pig in your next life."

In India pigs are regarded as the filthiest of animals. The very thought of becoming a pig greatly upset her, and with an expression full of remorse she promised never to repeat her old habit.

As soon as the girl left to do some household work, Baba's face looked aglow, with a glitter of delight about it. He turned to the mandali standing near Him, including Francis Brabazon, who had recently come from Australia for an indefinite stay with Baba. With a sparkle in His eyes, He quickly gestured, "Once you get a human body, there is no retrogression, no returning to the animal form."

Without further comment He changed the subject.

1959年夏天，巴巴坐在浦那的古鲁普茹萨德。我的学校放长假，巴巴允许我与他呆六个星期。某些下午，他会访问宾德拉屋，杰萨瓦拉住在那里，满德里常常去陪伴他。

之前，巴巴曾劝说过杰萨瓦拉的一位女仆放弃小拿小偷的习惯，发现她再次屈从于同样弱点后，巴巴把她叫过来，看起来不高兴并严厉地用手势说到，“如果你再犯偷盗，你来生会成为一头猪。”

在印度，猪被看成最脏的动物。成为一头猪的这个紧迫想法严重地困扰着她，充满懊悔地表示，她决不再犯这个老毛病。

这个女孩一离开去做家务时，巴巴的脸看起来就容光焕发，闪着愉快的光芒，他转向站在他近旁的满德里，包括佛朗西斯·布拉巴赞，他当时不定期地从澳大利亚来呆在巴巴身边。巴巴双眼闪着光，快速地用手比划，“一旦你得到一个人形体，就不会倒退了，再也不会回到动物形体。”

没做更多评论，他改变了话题。
