[10] When Conflicts Arise
211
Dadashri: No. 'You' the pure Self, do not have to do pratikraman. It is 'Chandulal' who is at mistake and therefore, he is the one who should do pratikraman. The pure Self is simply the Knower and has never erred. And that is why the Self does not have to do it. This worldly life has come into existence only because of atikraman. Who does atikraman? The ego and the intellect get together and do atikraman.

Purusharth Against Bad Qualities of Prakruti
Attachment to Abhorrence and Abhorrence
to Attachment
Questioner: If someone bears a grudge with me without any reason, or has abhorrence (dwesh) towards me, or is being deceitful with me without any reason, does that mean that in some previous life I had attachment (raag) for him?
Dadashri: Yes. You have created a karmic account (hisaab) and this is its reaction.
(200) Questioner: So what kind of an account is that? Is it one of attachment (raag) or is it one of abhorrence (dwesh)?
Dadashri: Deceit (kapat) falls under attachment (raag); and ego and anger fall under abhorrence (dwesh). Deceit and greed (lobh) go into attachment (raag). Desire for greed (lobh) goes into attachment. Do you understand what I am saying?
Questioner: Yes, I do.
Dadashri: Which kind of attachment is this? It is greed (lobh) and deceit (kapat). And pride (maan) and anger (krodh) go into abhorrence (dwesh). Therefore, if someone is being deceitful, that is attachment (raag). Anyone one has attachment for will resort to deceit.
Not a single lifetime has gone by without raag (attachment). Until one attains Self-realization, one continues to do attachment and abhorrence (raag and dwesh); there is no third thing at all.
