[16] Revenge of Enmity Is Unbearable
299
Dadashri: Would anyone think of hitting his own brother?
Questioner: But after all that, I thought very deeply about
who binds enmity, why does he do so; so does that not all go
into pratikraman?
Dadashri: That is nothing but rigmarole – long tedious

whatever you wish. And after you do pratikraman, no matter
how much enmity there is, you can still be free in this very life.
Pratikraman is the only solution.
