UNDERSTANDING SAMAYIK 565
do many samayiks . You may not be able to see all of a sudden in the first few samayiks . However , after you do more samayiks , You will be able to ‘ see ’ in great detail .
First , hold Dada in your meditation ( dhyan ), recall Him , read one or two pads ( Dada ’ s spiritual hymns ), recite the Trimantra and repeat several times , ‘ I am pure Soul ,’ and come into the stillness of the Self . Then whatever You ‘ see ,’ starting from today going back to your younger years , whatever mistakes committed with reference to violence ( himsa ), lying , fraud , deceit , sexual mistakes , etc .; start doing pratikraman for whatever You ‘ see .’ Go back in time starting from today . Recall all that You can from your childhood , or else recall with whomever you did atikraman yesterday and the day before , and so on ; they will naturally come to you . If they do not come to You naturally , do not worry .
Once you begin , there will be a very heavy ‘ rainfall ’; it will ‘ rain ’ even in the desert ! Then , if you have hurt anyone through any wrongdoing , through speech , deceit , greed , pride ; if you insulted or talked negatively about any religion ; do pratikraman for all that and move forward . Then , if you have made mistakes regarding sexuality , adultery , or even had thoughts about them , recall them , too , and do pratikraman . Where anything occurs that the world looks down on , are the acts which bring on a future life in a lower life form ; and so do pratikraman for all that .
This speech ( of the Gnani Purush ) is filled with life ( chetan ), thus this speech will verily do the work , take you to liberation . Start doing pratikraman with purity . There are five Mahavrats ( five cardinal vows of non-possession , non-violence , not stealing , not lying and celibacy ) and you have to do pratikraman for wherever you have violated these mahavrats ; you do not have to do anything else . You don ’ t have to do pratikraman if you have gone out , eaten a paan , smoked a cigarette , etc . Human
