Pratikraman
Questioner: Yes.
Dadashri: You never did any pratikraman and believed
that it was only the other person’s fault.
Questioner: Then pratikraman continued for two or three
years and for the past six months to a year and a half, they have
become fewer. Do I still have to do pratikraman even when
the sense of mistakes has gone down?
Dadashri: Yes, because mistakes are going to occur right
until the end. This body verily is made up of mistakes.
Questioner: The level of mistakes is going down.
Dadashri: ‘You’ (the Self) have to ‘see’ and ‘know’.
Your awareness will increase as the mistakes decrease. You may
end up doing pratikraman the whole night, but you do not
blame the other person. You turn it around, which you never did
before. You now have to see through Gnan that all his ‘letters’
(hurt) are coming to you, but now you know that he too can see
his own mistakes. So he must be doing pratikraman. You have
to understand that, ‘This is fine with me, let the ‘letters’ come
to me.’ The one that writes letters is the prakruti, and the one
that does pratikraman is the Self (awakened Self). Even now,
he continues to write letters; that is all the prakruti, but he also
does pratikraman. The pratikraman is the part of the Self.
The Worst Form of Atikraman

Dadashri: Only Vasudevas and Prativasudevas
(Salakha Purush – human beings with extraordinary super human

atikraman. No one else can do atikraman beyond that. And
also no one can suffer through hell, the worst level, the seventh
hell, like them. The ultimate atikraman is when one kills and
