Keep the self separate and make it ‘do’ pratikraman (Gujarati)
We have attained the knowledge of the Self through Akram Vignan. Now we have to complete the worldly life interaction (vyavahar) by remaining in the state of the Self (nischaya). This vyavahar is in the form of discharge however due to attachment, expectation or kashayas (anger-pride-deceit-greed), sometimes atikraman (aggression through thought-speech-acts) happens towards another person. Such vyavahar hurts the other person. It is imperative on the way to final moksha that one’s worldly interactions become ideal and the awareness that prevents atikraman from happening prevails. There is only kraman during the whole day while carrying out daily worldly life interactions. There is no atikraman. But when atikraman happens once in a while then we have to make him (Chandulal) do pratikraman.
