our instructions. If you say you cannot do something, then you
will not be able to do it. If you tell yourself you are tired of doing
pratikraman, then the ‘machinery’ will also become sluggish. It
is ‘Chandubhai’ who is doing the pratikraman and he is the one
who is supposed to do it. All You have to do is keep driving him
on to do pratikraman and, before you know it, he will be doing
five hundred or more pratikraman a day.
This science can destroy every mistake completely. It can
make one a vitarag – absolutely free from all attachment. Once
you decide that you want to do pratikraman, pratikraman will
occur. When you say, ‘I cannot do it (pratikraman),’ then that
will be the case. You should never say it does not occur. It
definitely will. Why will it not?
Pratikraman Every Night
Do you want to get rid of pratikraman? How is it
possible? That is the main thing; that is the ticket to moksha.
Questioner: On the contrary, one needs to ‘see’ how
more pratikramans occur.
Dadashri: Yes. That will occur with awareness. You should
do it every day. You should do pratikraman the whole day ‘on
the moment’ (instantly). If you cannot do them on the spot, then
recall all the mistakes of the day at night, and do pratikraman
for them all; do alochana, pratikraman and pratyakhyan.
In your alochana, tell Dada Bhagwan, ‘This is what
happens. Now, this should not happen, but it still does. I repent
for it and I am making a nischay (firm determination) that I will
not do it again.’
Questioner: Whatever takes place during the day, from
morning till night, I take ‘Chandulal’ to task – ‘what wrong and
right did you do?’ I make him tally up the entire account in the
night.
