Dadashri: When you see faults in others because of these enemies that are within you from your life, you must do pratikraman. By doing this, the enemies will leave.
Who Will You Scold?
Gnani the pickpocket is not guilty. To those who have not known, the picket pocket is the guilty one. When you see the pickpocket as the culprit, when in fact he is really faultless, you will have to wander for many lives. What you were to see you did not see the pure Self). And what you were not supposed to see you saw (the relative self, the fault).
Inner Enemies Make You See Faults No one in this world has ever been guilty of any faults. You see faults in others because of your own inherent faults. Furthermore, because you see faults in others, you have conflicts. You would not have conflicts otherwise, would you? So when you see faults, your perception is incorrect. When you keep having conflicts, it is like two blind people bumping into each other. If you see two people who keep bumping into each other, you will conclude that they cannot see. Why would they keep bumping into each other like that? It is because they cannot see. So in reality no one is at fault; you are the one at fault when you see faults in others, and that is why the conflicts continue.
The inner enemies of anger, pride, attachment and greed are the veils, which prevent your real vision, and therefore you see faults in others.
We are being told to get rid of these inner enemies. How can anyone do this? Has anyone ever been successful? It is only when you have the real knowledge (the Self) then you will understand that no one is at fault and consequently you are separated from these inner enemies.
Do you have to do pratikramans when you see the faults of others?
Questioner: Yes.
Who would you blame or get angry with if you were hurt seriously by a falling rock?
You will look up to see if someone threw it deliberately. You will not have any qualms when you don't see anyone up there, or even if you see a monkey up there. At the most you will shoo the monkey away but you will not start yelling and quibbling at the monkey, would you? How can you? The monkey has no name. One only blames the one with a name.
You readily accept such beatings elsewhere, but at home you become enraged when even the smallest of words are exchanged.
Even then in the language of the Lord everyone is faultless. All these beings that commit faults are not to be blamed because they are sleeping (not aware of their real Self). How can you accuse a person who insults you in his sleep?
There is No Enemy Anymore... Questioner: In what sense is the world faultless?
Dadashri: From every aspect and viewpoint the world is faultless. Have you not heard someone say this person is my enemy' or 'I cannot get along with this person' or 'my mother-inlaw is very bad? I see everyone as flawless.
Questioner: But Dada you say that you don't see anyone as being bad.
Dadashri: When no one is bad to begin with, how can
