This check of Dada is a blank check. It is not something you have to use freely. Use it when you find yourself in a major bind. You can pull the emergency chain if there is an emergency but if you pull it just because you dropped a packet of cigarettes, you will be fined. So you must not misuse it. (243)
Questioner: These days the taxes are so high, that large businesses cannot offset the expense without cheating. When everyone ask for bribes a person has to cheat, does he not?
Dadashri: You may cheat but do you feel any remorse from within? When you feel remorse and are repentant, it will lighten your liability
Questioner: But what should we do in such circumstances?
Dadashri: You have to understand that it is wrong to cheat and you must repent sincerely when you do. You only become free if you feel uneasy within about what you have done. In this day and age you have no choice but sell goods you purchased in a black market, in a black market. So you should tell 'Chandubhai to do pratikraman. Before you did not do pratikraman and that is why you have filled these 'ponds' of karma. Now you can clean it all up by doing pratikraman. Who is the doer of this greed? Chandubhai is the doer. If you sell your goods in the black market, you must tell Chandubhai: "Chandubhai, there is no objection in your selling in the black market. It is under the control of vyavasthit. But you must do pratikraman and vow not to do it again. (254)
If someone tells me: 'I do not want any religion I want worldly happiness'. I would tell him to practice honesty and be ethical. I would not tell him to go to the temples. Giving to others is the religion of a celestial being. Not taking what belong to
others is a humane quality. Therefore honesty is the highest religion of all. Dishonesty is the best foolishness. But if I cannot be honest, does that mean I have to jump into a lake? My Dada has taught me to do pratikraman every time I am dishonest. Your next life will be beautiful. Know dishonesty as dishonesty and repent for it. Without doubt, the one who repents is an honest person.
There is a solution for having made money dishonestly. If the day has passed in making money dishonestly, at night tell Chandubhai, 'Why were you dishonest? Now repent, four or five hundred times. Do pratikraman now. The Self is flawless and does not have to repent. But Chandubhai has to do this. Make him repent.
When you have a disagreement with your partner, you immediately become aware that you have already said more than you should have. So you should immediately do pratikraman for it. Your pratikraman should be instant, like cash payment. This bank is a cash bank and so is the pratikraman that is being done instantly. (256)
Let me explain to you how obstacles in life are created. If you tell your assistant that he has no sense, then you will have created a barrier on your own sense. Now just look at this! People in this entire world have wasted away their human life by becoming trapped in such obstacles and barriers. You have absolutely no right to call other people senseless. When you make such a statement, the other person will respond with an inappropriate statement also, and he too will create an obstacle for himself. You are responsible for creating this barrier for him. So tell me how is the world to be saved from such obstacles? If you call someone useless, it will create a barrier on your own worthiness. But if you immediately do pratikraman for saying this, the obstacles will be destroyed before they are created.
