pratikraman?
Dadashri: They become pure by remaining as the
Knower-Seer.
Questioner: So then what occurs with pratikraman?
Dadashri: What occurs in pratikraman is that if a major
mistake has been made which hurt the other person, then You
have to tell ‘Chandubhai’, ‘Please do not do that, and since
atikraman has been done, pratikraman is required.’ There is
no need to do pratikraman if atikraman has not occurred.
Questioner: But do parmanus not become pure with
pratikraman?
Dadashri: No, pratikraman is done in order to become
free. The parmanus do not become pure by doing pratikraman.
They remain as they are. ‘We’ have to ‘see’ the ‘Self’ in all.
‘We’ become free the moment ‘we’ ‘see’ them.
The non-Self complex (the pudgal) will make a claim,
‘You have become a Shuddhatma, but I will not attain moksha.’
‘We’ say, ‘Why? What is the problem? I have become pure. I
have realized the Self.’ So then the pudgal will say, ‘You will
not go to moksha. How are you going to go until I let go of
you?’ So then we ask, ‘Sir, what is your objection?’ The pudgal
will say, ‘You have spoilt us. We were in our nature. You have
become pure, now you have to make us pure. So you make us
the way we were to begin with so that we, too, become free!’
So that is why You have to ‘see’ the pure, the shuddha.
The world sees the impure (ashuddha), because they do it with
the inner intent (bhaav) of ‘I am the doer.’ Now the inner intent
is, ‘I am not the doer,’ so they (pudgal parmanus) become
free.
