Pratikraman: The Key That Resolves All Conflicts (Full Version) Pratikraman: The Key That Resolves All Conflicts | Page 21

Pratikraman improves relations and additional loss won’t be there;
Echoes from others will arise or else India-Pakistan like war will be there!
When there is insult or loss of faith, cleansing removes the faults;
Cleansing must be done repeatedly like separating milk and salt!
If others are hurt you should know it right away;
Hurting words changes expression and smile will go away!
Giving pain makes you insolvent, if you terrorize, intimidate;
If you broke heart or hated, he will return the wrath as a snake!
Fight between in-laws causes hurt, attacks or suicide;
Do deep and prolonged pratikraman with self-criticism!
Gnani says ‘I cause pain occasionally and unintentionally;
Exception though this is, here, pratikraman I do specially!
Give protection, so he doesn’t fall, I consider his thoughts;
Handle his ‘Vyavasthit’ and stop him before he falls!
One makes a mistake, asks forgiveness, repeats same mistake;
Explain him with love, forgive him and have good thoughts!
Others go on making mistakes and are never aware of this fault;
No repentance or forgiveness, hence the loss of love and respect!
They should be opposed and to tolerate them is senseless;
Make them aware of it and forgive them with pure heart!
And yet if nothing happens, then finally you should tolerate;
Or else, mind will be spoiled, say ‘that’s how it is’ and tolerate!
If someone is hurt by me and then he doesn’t come near me;
End this with pratikraman, I complete the account of karma!
Is there anything wrong if one lets go because of egoism?
Gnani says it is wrong, there’s charge of being instrumental!
Yet, if he stiffens up, resolution ‘pending’; you shouldn’t oppose him;
Keep on doing pratikramans, some day inner burning will subside!
After prolonged altercation do collective pratikraman;
‘Dada Bhagwan, I am diligently doing its’ pratikraman!’
