Regulated procreation through garbhadhana-samskara produces enlightened children, while unregulated sex creates unintelligent generations.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 1.2.2 — May 26, 1974, Rome 740526SB-ROME [40:16 Minutes] SB-01.02.02_740526SB-ROME Prabhupāda: Where is Dhanañjaya? Dhanañjaya?
Devotee: Dhanañjaya? He's going [indistinct].
Prabhupāda: hmm. Nitāi: Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya. Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya. Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya.
[devotees repeat] [leads chanting of verse, etc.] sūta uvāca yaṁ pravrajantam anupetam apeta-kṛtyaṁ dvaipāyano viraha-kātara ājuhāva putreti tan-mayatayā taravo 'bhinedus taṁ sarva-bhūta-hṛdayaṁ munim ānato 'smi [SB 1.2.2] [break] [04:09] Translation: "Śrīla Sūta Gosvāmī said: Let me offer my respectful obeisances unto that great sage Śukadeva Gosvāmī, who can enter the hearts of all. When he went away to take up the renounced order of life, sannyāsa, leaving aside home without undergoing the sacred thread ceremony, his father, Vyāsadeva, cried out to him, 'O my son!' Indeed, only the trees echoed in response to the begrieved father." Prabhupāda: Yaṁ pravrajantam. Pravrajantam means to leave home in renounced order of life. That is called pravrajantam.
Therefore a sannyāsī is called parivrājakācārya. A sannyāsī is supposed to be wandering without any shelter. That is called pravrajya. So Śukadeva Gosvāmī, he remained sixteen years within the womb of his mother.
He did not come out. He was hearing his father within the womb. So this is called paramahaṁsa. So a paramahaṁsa does not require any reformatory process, because they are already reformed.
Yaṁ pravrajantam anupetam. Anu. Ana means without. Upeta.
