Children of devotees

If a child takes birth in a family of devotees, this means that in his last
life he had already taken to the yoga process, but somehow or other he could
not finish it. Therefore the child is given another opportunity to make
progress under the care of a good father and mother so that he will again
advance. In this way, as soon as one completes his development of God
consciousness, then he no longer has to take birth in this material world,
but returns to the spiritual world.
