Pratikraman
That other man will scold ‘Chandubhai’ and tell him, ‘You are
worthless. Why do you keep talking in this manner?’ Or he may
even slap you - ‘Chandubhai’; the guilty one has to take the
beating.
(446)
Questioner: So does that mean that he ‘charged’ that
karma?
Dadashri: No. That is why pratikraman has to be done.
But You do not have to do the pratikraman, ‘Chandubhai’ has
to do it. You (the Self) have to tell ‘Chandubhai’, ‘Why did you
do atikraman? Do pratikraman for it.’
Questioner: But suppose that ‘Chandubhai’ does not do
pratikraman, then what?
Dadashri: Then it can be acceptable.
Questioner: So it got ‘charged,’ did it not?
Dadashri: No. It does not get ‘charged.’
Questioner: Pratikraman should be done.
Dadashri: All the files will be cleared if you do it. They
got cleared with Gnan and got put away. Whatever clothes you
wash, put them away. They will go for ironing automatically.
When Does Karma Get Charged?
Questioner: Does charging of karma take place after
Gnan?
Dadashri: How can charging take place? When does
charging occur? Are you convinced that vyavasthit (scientific
circumstantial evidences) is the doer?
Questioner: Yes.
Dadashri: And that ‘Chandubhai’ is not the doer – are
you convinced of that?
