[10] When Conflicts Arise

not allow me to attend anywhere else.’ I told him, “We’ have
a place for everyone here, rebel or not.’ Rebel if you want to,
but attain your Self. By rebelling he may curse a few people;
what else is he going to do? He may say, ‘You have no sense.
You are like this or you are like that.’ He is going to curse the
non-Self complex (pudgal), is he not? Can anyone curse the
Self?
Conflict will occur. Do pots and pans not make noise
when we bang them together? It is pudgal’s (non-Self) nature
to get into conflict, but that too only if there is such a karmic
stock within. If there is no such stock within, there will be no
conflict. ‘We’ too used to have conflict. But after attaining Gnan,
there has not been any conflict because our Gnan is experiential
(anubhav) Gnan. What is more, ‘we’ have come here having
settled everything through this Gnan. ‘We’ have thought
everything through, whereas you still have to settle everything.
You are sitting in moksha, having constructed the third floor, but
you still have to construct the first floor, do you not? Now you
will have to construct (work) backwards, having sat on the third
floor.
And for the traditional way to moksha, people just walked
away after digging the foundation, leaving behind their cement
bowls, spades, hoes and all their tools. If there is no inner
peace, why would one bother? First ‘we’ give you peace and
then you can take care of the rest below. That is why ‘we’
brought out this Akram science. Not Kram (step-by-step), but
Akram (step-less)!

Guarantee of Liberation in Three More Lives
If a person does not have any conflict, I guarantee that he
will attain moksha (ultimate liberation) in only three lifetimes. If
conflict occurs, you should do pratikraman. Conflict occurs
between two pudgals (effective complexes of thoughts, speech
and acts) and these conflicts can be dissolved with pratikraman.
