________________
A strong desire to annul sinful karma and to do pratikraman;
Shall free one from weight of sins of endless lives!
Injustice in personal or business, what is its' penance? Decide in front of God-'I don't ever want to do it again'! Innate self's mistakes from previous life hurt at present; Get bliss of Freedom when, with equanimity you accept! Endure with gratitude, all the pains that others give; Doing Dada-given pratikraman, puzzles you shall leave! Scientific method of Jains, of recall-repentance-resolve; Other religions too, give top priority to similar resolve!
Perfection and thoroughness, imparts this Vitarag Science; Takes practical religion to top, and grants religious contemplation! Helping climb upward steps, pratikraman grants absolute contemplation; Tirthankar Lords convey perfect religion of the Self and of worldly interaction!
Dadashri explains the essence of recall-repentance-resolve;
In front of Gnani or Guru, admit the faults of the self!
Free of fear and with decisive mind; hand over charge to guru; And awaken easily again when you do pratikraman given by guru! To be free from karma, paramount weapon is pratikraman; Progress without guru by doing Dada-given pratikraman! Excess pain is in chanting-penance-fasting; meditation and yoga; Only pratikraman is savior, it shall definitely give you moksha!
Repentance frees from sins, gives a sacred-state; Repent repeatedly in front of God and ask for forgiveness! Repentance done by a person is always from the heart and natural; 'Pratikraman frees from karma' is the law that is natural!
To heartily ask for pardon of faults is the way to freedom; Even if not heartily done, it preserves goodness for the self!
If you have to drink alcohol, apologize with decision of wanting to quit;
One day it shall be quit, is the scientific exactness!

This is 'Akram Vignan'; it has got to give result; Moksha in two hours, hear Gnani's Gnan-Agna!
Subtle pain inflicted to someone, that too is called atikraman; You may be aware or not, instantly do pratikraman!
That which is done voluntarily is where one can 'do' purusharth -self effort; That which is done due to pressure of forces is mandatory and is karma effect!
Doing is mandatory; like-dislike is voluntary; Facing insult is mandatory; pratikraman is voluntary!
Ignorant one has free will to do repentance and resolve; When stealing-killing pleases; a huge tuber of sin is formed!
Sensualist's thoughtful pratikraman results in celibacy;
Purity from hearty pratikraman then rests on Dada! Pratikraman and Trimantra done together certainly give the result; Prayer to great Gods and freedom from sinful karma is the result!
Endless pratikramans have shown no result yet, why? Not one was with 'shoot-on-sight' knowledge, that's why! Pratikraman done in morning and evening, but mechanically; Pratikraman without repentance, pratikraman it can't be! What was memorized is spoken daily, just like a record; Not finding the real culprit, he hurts the person in front!
Not a single mistake is absolved, whole life he did; Pratikraman like a parrot, Mahavir's path it can't be!
Pratikraman in Maagdhi language isn't understood very well; Ascetics and saints say, 'I did' and raise the egoism as well! Mahavir's so called followers 'perverse and insensitive", without exception; Believe that Self resides in rituals; leaving no space for complaint! Disciples of middle twenty-two Tirthankars, proficient they were; Alert at every moment each day, they did pratikraman everywhere! If you ask the meaning of daily pratikraman, they know it not; Annual pratikraman of Samvatsari, sins will not wash!
