collective pratikraman. What can you do when so many
mistakes occur? It is a warehouse full of mistakes. And, in his
mind, he thinks, ‘I am something special…I am something

insults you!
Solution for the Residual Mistakes
Questioner: If, by mistake, we forget to do pratikraman,
will they go away with collective (samuhik) pratikraman?
Dadashri: Yes, collective pratikraman will remove a lot
of mistakes. That is the greatest way to quickly remove the
balance of pratikraman of many days. On the contrary, that is
a better way.
Mistakes Before Gnan
Questioner: How can one do ‘shoot-on-sight’
pratikraman for all the mistakes that occurred prior to attaining
Gnan?
Dadashri: Those mistakes are ‘thick’ and, therefore, they
will keep showing up in the non-Self (prakruti). So you will
recognize that they are from the past. You have to do more
pratikraman for them.
Questioner: They can be recognized more by a samayik,
can they not?
Dadashri: Yes, you can recognize a lot more in samayik.
But when this mistake comes before you, it is of the prakruti,
so these mistakes were there before. Therefore, you have to do
more pratikraman for them. And you don’t have to do anything
for mistakes you don’t have.
