Pratikraman
What occurs in the sixth gunasthanak? Pratyakhyan avaran
kashay arises!
Pratyakhyan Avaran Kashay
What does pratyakhyan avaran mean? It means kashays
occur even when one does pratikraman and pratyakhyan.
The ones that come have so many layers. Those with few layers
are gone, but those with many layers are pratyakhyan avaran.
They will not go away even after hundreds of thousands
of pratikramans.
Questioner: What kind of mistakes are they?
Dadashri: They are called pratyakhyan avaran. They
do not go away even after one does pratyakhyan.
Questioner: What is the major reason behind it?
Dadashri: They are very deep and very thick. If an onion
has five thousand layers, would it not look the same even if you
peel off a layer at a time? This is like a layer of a kind, a veil
of a kind (avaran). Everyone has one or two of these, not too
many.
Questioner: They keep coming back, again and again.
Dadashri: Yes, they will keep coming back.
Questioner: But will they not leave, sooner or later?
Dadashri: They will begin to leave. As the karmic account
(hisaab) matures, it will become less. There is no problem with
them going. They will go away for sure, but what kind of problems
do they create today? Despite doing pratikraman and
pratyakhyan, they come back.
Hence, you created pratyakhyan avaran by doing
pratyakhyan for apratyakhyan avaran. So now, what about
the pratyakhyan avaran that is created?
