Pratikraman: The Key That Resolves All Conflicts (Full Version) Pratikraman: The Key That Resolves All Conflicts | Page 12

A strong desire to annul sinful karma and to do pratikraman;
Shall free one from weight of sins of endless lives!
Injustice in personal or business, what is its’ penance?
Decide in front of God-‘I don’t ever want to do it again’!
Innate self’s mistakes from previous life hurt at present;
Get bliss of Freedom when, with equanimity you accept!
Endure with gratitude, all the pains that others give;
Doing Dada-given pratikraman, puzzles you shall leave!
Scientific method of Jains, of recall-repentance-resolve;
Other religions too, give top priority to similar resolve!
Perfection and thoroughness, imparts this Vitarag Science;
Takes practical religion to top, and grants religious contemplation!
Helping climb upward steps, pratikraman grants absolute contemplation;
Tirthankar Lords convey perfect religion of the Self and of worldly interaction!
Dadashri explains the essence of recall-repentance-resolve;
In front of Gnani or Guru, admit the faults of the self!
Free of fear and with decisive mind; hand over charge to guru;
And awaken easily again when you do pratikraman given by guru!
To be free from karma, paramount weapon is pratikraman;
Progress without guru by doing Dada-given pratikraman!
Excess pain is in chanting-penance-fasting; meditation and yoga;
Only pratikraman is savior, it shall definitely give you moksha!
Repentance frees from sins, gives a sacred-state;
Repent repeatedly in front of God and ask for forgiveness!
Repentance done by a person is always from the heart and natural;
‘Pratikraman frees from karma’ is the law that is natural!
To heartily ask for pardon of faults is the way to freedom;
Even if not heartily done, it preserves goodness for the self!
If you have to drink alcohol, apologize with decision of wanting to quit;
One day it shall be quit, is the scientific exactness!
