Pratikraman 523 PART 2 UNDERSTANDING SAMAYIK Definition of Samayik Questioner: What is a samayik? Dadashri: There are two kinds of samayik. One is prevalent in the world, where the doer of the samayik does not allow the mind to move away from a certain circle defined prior to the process. Thus, he attempts to keep the mind confined within a circle, a boundary. Where the mind remains still in what is occurring outside is called vyavahar samayik. (495) And the other kind of samayik is the exact samayik that Lord Mahavir had spoken of; the kind that we all do in this path of Akram. (The samayik of Akram Vignan is where for forty- eight minutes (gunthanu), one remains as the Self and ‘sees’ file number one). Questioner: Please explain the samayik of our Akram path. Dadashri: In our samayik, one becomes the Self (atmaswaroop), and ‘sees’ (jovoo) what is going on within ‘Chandubhai’ (file number one). There You ‘see’ what kind of thoughts ‘Chandubhai’ is having. We have to ‘see’ all of them, and You are the Seer. Thoughts are drashya – that which is to be seen. And You are drashta – the Seer. Those thoughts we are able to understand are called gneya (that which is known) and You are Gnata – the Knower.
