Pratikraman: The Key That Resolves All Conflicts (Full Version) Pratikraman: The Key That Resolves All Conflicts | Página 14
On Paryushan, see whole year’s sins, feel the heartache;
You feel like dying that day, alas! How people were hurt!
Did you ever have these feelings, or simply got dressed and jeweled up;
Like going to a wedding on the Paryushan day, formal and smug!
‘Forgive my bad actions’-to those they like, no remorse for all others;
You’ve ruined Vitarag Gods’ reputation; this isn’t Mahavir’s religion!
In true Vitarag religion, five hundred pratikramans are done daily;
It is done ‘shoot-on-sight’ and with repentance nightly and daily!
This is Mahavir’s reign and ‘Gnani’ is ornamental to the reign;
In Kali-Kaal, Kramic path stagnant; Akram moksha unveiled through ‘Us’!
With instant-cash pratikraman, adverse mediation vanishes;
Where Akram Gnani has manifested, ‘Godly state’ is attained with ease!
Pratikraman’s purpose is fulfilled, be it credit karma or freedom;
Whether done in ignorance or knowledge, it is the main support!
Self-knowledge is freedom-path and not pratikraman alone;
Pratikraman after Self-awareness starts You on to Liberation!
After the illusion-I am Chandulal- is gone, bondage of karma stops;
With the illusion, pratikraman is for recurrent cycles of dirtying and cleansing!
Pratikraman is recommended, do it ‘shoot-on-sight’;
If you can’t do that- next is- do it morning and night!
Can’t do this, do it fortnightly, or every four months;
Once a year if nothing else, if no mother aunt will do!
Even aunt isn’t real in this Kali-Kaal, she is like a hired one;
Where’s moksha? Where’s religion? It is only the egoism’s illusion!
Doer or helper, pratikraman should be done proper;
Created are decorative words, intents are forgotten!
Atikraman is at every step, yet the remedy is pratikraman;
In the realm of the Vitarag there is no secret or corruption!
You do pratikraman for the dead and not for the living;
Bhaav-pratikramans are true; wrong are those with words and rituals!
