You make a suggestion and show different opinion; Lying for the Self, know it as the great truth!
Dada has declared to the world that worldly interaction is mandatory; 'Vyavasthit' controls interactions but pratikraman is voluntary!
Ask for forgiveness in every way, in person or with soft eyes; If the other person hurts you, stop bowing down to him! In suggesting, your purpose is pure but the others get hurt; Do pratikraman for 'not knowing how to say it properly"! Others should feel no pain; such should be your speech; Interactions should be dramatic; or else you have to clean!
For making fun, jest, 'joke'; one has to do pratikraman; Otherwise, Gnani's speech, His 'tape-record' is less clear!
When an intelligent person makes fun of the less intelligent; It is misuse of the light and ends up as punishment of the self! If something wrong comes out in speech or in one's inner intent; Others tape this instantly, doing pratikraman here is correct!
By doing pratikraman, your speech will improve in this lifetime; Dada's speech became acceptable to all, after his interactions purified!
Instead of feeling remorse keep heightened awareness; Veils that obstruct on the way, remove them with pratikraman! 'This' Satsang's poison is better than the nectar of outside world interaction; Here, quarrel or fight; yet there's Liberation, by doing huge pratikraman! If you can't come near Dada, feel the regret and do pratikraman at that time; Flush out the worries and raag-dwesh and remember Dada all the time!
If an ant is swept away in urine, Dada does pratikraman; Reading of a book without performing due rites; that is a mistake! Even though helpful for all, if two people were made to separate; Benevolence for the ignorant, yet you have to do its' pratikraman!
If pratikraman does not happen, it is prakruti's fault;
It isn't obstruction karma; keep intent of 'seeing' with heightened energy! 31
To cleanse sticky karma use the soap according to the stickiness; Exert extra energy then there will be a strong Knower-Seer state!
For the burden of old mistakes, no choice but to wash them off; Do pratikraman, clean relative-self, it's Dada's only treatment!
Sit down for one hour daily to do sticky file's pratikraman; He'll be milder, he'll turn around and there'll be definite change!
Resolution after repentance, is the best form of purification; Decision that 'I won't do it again' is God Mahavir given resolution!
You've to only form inner intent to dispose with equanimity; Whether the disposal may occur or not, that is nature's authority!
Sticky karmas of file number one are disposed off just by 'seeing"; No need for pratikraman there, Akram Gnan's remedy is simple!
Only the guilty one commits a crime, a judge shouldn't take responsibility; Chandulal makes the mistakes and pratikraman is also his responsibility!
After attaining Akram Gnan, when does the reservoir get empty? After eleven to fourteen years, then, no more kashay remain!
Interference happens rarely, death likewise is a rare event; 'Future' is not under vyavasthit, 'what has happened' is vyavasthit!
When horrible karma unfold, if Gnan of "vyavasthit' is present; If You 'see' what is happening, then, pratikraman is not required!
Call it true pratikraman that 'speaks up' on the third day; Attraction towards us, even Dada Himself will lay! Pratikraman done for the dead reaches the immortal Soul within; Our puzzles are solved, when we think- 'no one ever dies"!
In opposition through speech and body against anyone; Total energy won't manifest even if the mind is antagonistic! See thoughts in mind, keep them separate and they will be gone; If someone was hurt by thoughts, pratikraman for it must be done!
If your inner intent is bad for the other or his for yourself; Don't look for the reason why; go to the path of pratikraman!
