Aptavani-6
241
Nikachit karma has to be suffered; nothing will deter it, but at least no new or additional problems arise after or during the suffering because one does not have a desire to enjoy or endure effects. If one gets to eat a mango, he will eat it, and if he does not get to eat one, then that is fine too. One will have to taste the mango; he will have to eat it, even though he does not want to. He has to do this because of pudgal sparshna, pending account of the non-Self. No one can do anything about it.
In atkan (inner blockade), there remain hidden desires within. Therefore, in this era of the current time cycle, in the presence of the Gnani Purush one should eradicate all one's atkan from its roots. And it is possible to do so. Everything can be cured in the presence of the Gnani Purush. The presence of the Gnani Purush is defined by the eradication of all disease! Do you like atkan?
Questioner: No, having learned about what atkan is now, it pricks like a thorn; how could I like it?
Dadashri: Yes, it is bothersome like a thorn. It is called the mightiest thorn of illusion (mayashalya)!
Questioner: On the one hand the blockade/atkan continues within and I am aware of it, and on the other hand, the mind likes one thing and it does not like another. It all takes place simultaneously.
Dadashri: Yes, but atkan is atkan. One should uproot it and eradicate it forever. You should remove it from its main root so that there is no chance for it to sprout again. And it is possible to do so through extraordinary spiritual effort (parakram)!
Questioner: When this blockade/atkan comes, is 'Dada' also present at that time? Then what if I say, 'Look, Dada, what is going on'?

Aptavani-6
Dadashri: Atkan makes one deluded (murchhit) and unaware. At that time, 'Dada' does not remain as your awareness. Arkan will make you forget Dada. It will make you forget the Self and make you lose awareness (laksha). Awareness will not remain. If 'Dada' remains present, it is not called atkan but it is nikachit (karmas that will give their effects; you will have to experience them).
Questioner: What should we do if we come to know later that it was atkan?
Dadashri: You have to recognize that; that is a delusion (murchha). You will have to do samayik for that. Just like everyone here, in the samayik you will have to put arkan and its phases on the 'stage.'
Questioner: When a young boy does not get a bat and a ball to play with, it will play on his mind; he will throw a tantrum. Is that considered an atkan?
Dadashri: No, that is not atkan. Atkan is what has caused one to wander for endless lifetimes. This bat and ball is only for a short while. It will last until he is five to seven years old, only as long as he is a child. Once he gets involved in business, there will be no trace of it, whereas atkan will remain forever. It will remain from age fifteen until he is an old man!
Questioner: It is possible to remove atkan through spiritual effort (purusharth) and extraordinary spiritual effort (parakram), is it not?
Dadashri: Yes, it is all possible. That is why 'we' alert you that one can do parakram where he has attained the Self and has become a purush (the Self); there is purusharth there. One is able to do parakram, therefore, now get Your work done. It is dangerous to get stuck again, so find the ultimate solution (ukel) here.
Any kind of atkan (internal blockade) can take hold as
