Pratikraman: The Key That Resolves All Conflicts (Full Version) Pratikraman: The Key That Resolves All Conflicts | Page 59

Special notes to readers ♦ The word Self, with 'S', refers to the awakened Soul, which is different from the worldly soul (non-awakened self), written with 's'. The term Shuddhatma (pure Soul) is used by the Gnani Purush for the awakened Self, after the Gnan Vidhi. Similarly, any word in the middle of a sentence, with capitalized first letter, or in inverted comas at the beginning of the sentence, refers to the awakened Self. This is an important distinction for the correct understanding of the difference between the awakened Self and the non-awakened self. ♦ Seeker - refers to a questioner who has not attained Dada's Gnan, so all Dadashri's answers under that are in response to them. Otherwise: Questioner - refers to those who have attained Dada's Gnan of the Akram Path. ♦ Wherever the name 'Chandubhai' is mentioned, the reader should substitute his or her name. ♦ Numbers in parenthesis i.e. refer to the page number in the original book in Gujarati from which text was translated. ***** 60
