Pratikraman
That is Called Pratyakhyan
Questioner: If one does pratikraman heartily for the
mistake, what if the decision (nischay) not to repeat it is weak?
Dadashri: The firm resolution (nischay) is pratyakhyan.
It is best if one does nischay. If one does not resolve to never
repeat the mistake and only does pratikraman, the first mistake
gets erased; then it will come again and he will erase it again.
We need all three: alochana, pratikraman and pratyakhyan.
Pratyakhyan means ‘I will not do it again,’ and that is the best
thing.
