Dadashri: The dislike is an effect of all the prior opinions
you have formed. By doing pratikraman for it, you can change
it around. You have to say that he is a very nice man, then he
will appear nice to you.
Questioner: Should I do pratikraman or pratyakhyan
for that opinion?
Dadashri: You have to do pratikraman. If you had a
bad opinion about someone, you have to change that opinion
now, to a good one, by saying that he is a good man. That
which appeared as ‘bad’ to you, when you call it ‘good’ the
change will take place. He appears ‘bad’ to you today because
of your past opinions. Truly, no one is ever bad. Tell this to your
mind. The opinions are formed by the mind. That stock is with
the mind. Whatever opinions ‘we’ give, ‘we’ wash them all
away.
Questioner: What is the tool to wash them off?
Dadashri: Pratikraman. If one has attained this Akram
science, which means he has attained the separation between the
Self and the non-Self, then he will not bind any karma. Yes, but
if he does not do pratikraman for his opinions, then its effect
will remain in the mind of the other person and, therefore, his
negativity towards you will continue. No new karma will be
bound if you maintain a clean inner intent, and if you do
pratikraman, even the effect of past karma will go away. To
divide by seven that which you had multiplied by seven is called
purusharth (spiritual effort).
Therefore, the shadow of your mind falls upon his mind.
See the effect of the shadow of my mind falling upon others.
Even a fool becomes smart. If you have in your mind, ‘I do not
like Chandu,’ then dislike for ‘Chandu’ starts the moment he
comes, the snapshot (vibrations) of which reaches him. That
snapshot (vibration) reaching him will tell him what is going on
