[2] Every Religion Supports Pratikraman
31
Dadashri: You do that, don’t you? That is pratikraman.
The greatest pratikraman lies in the Nine Kalams of Dada
Bhagwan. That pratikraman is such that it can lead to the
salvation of the whole world.
Questioner: Is it true that no matter what wrongdoing
(paap) is in the vessel of repentance, it...
Dadashri: It will become lighter due to repentance.
Questioner: Does it not burn to ashes?
Dadashri: It will be burned completely. Many such paap
will be burned; they will come to an end. The ‘soap’ of repentance
is such that it will apply to all kinds of ‘clothes.’
Questioner: And when it is done in Your presence, what
will remain?
Dadashri: You will be blessed. Therefore, there is no
other ‘soap’ as the ‘soap’ of repentance in this world.
Repentance Reduces Karmic Liability of
Karma
Questioner: The best way to destroy paap is through
repentance. That is a wonderful thing. That is what the great
saints have said in the Puranas (ancient Hindu scriptures). Is it
possible for a killer to be forgiven if he repents after killing
someone?
(30)
Dadashri: If he takes pleasure in the killing, then if his
sentence, karma effect, were to be for a year, it would become
three years. And when he regrets and repents his actions, his
one year sentence would be reduced to six months. The karma
liability of any wrong actions will increase threefold if you take
pleasure in it. But if you repent for them, your liability will be
reduced. And if you rejoice after doing a good deed, then others
will get increased benefit.
