Have you Hurt Others? Then Pratikraman Needs to be Done Without Fail (Hindi)

In this human life which is very difficult to attain, what should be the goal? The ultimate goal should be to become free from all mistakes and attain liberation. For that, start with ‘May no living being be hurt through me.’ In daily interaction, whether knowingly or unknowingly, through the mind-speech-body, we hurt people we have relationships with, such as people at home, elders, relatives, friends, people who are dependent on us, and spiritual colleagues. During such occasions, atikraman happens in the form of anger-pride-deceit-greed, attachment-abhorrence, and on both sides, the cycle of kashaya and pain begins. To get rid of those mistakes, there is only one way: pratikraman. Pratikraman means to turn back from your own mistakes with understanding. only then will the true bliss of the Self be experienced.
