Guest guest Posted February 4, 2004 Report Share Posted February 4, 2004 Hello Friends, Question of Moksha is very loaded. Moksha from what? Unless you get out of all the Karma phala and its effects, there is no going further.Karma binds you. Karmas act like heavy weights that bind you to eternal hell. First Moksha is getting Moksha from Karma. My method is very simple. I take liberty to quote from my website. IMPORTANCE OF PRAYASCHITTA (REPENTANCE, ATONEMENT) Humans suffer untold miseries like poverty, childlessness, seperation from loved ones, punishments, diseases and torments because of their Karmik actions. Karma is of two types, SUKARMA AND KUKARMA. Acts that are not permitted by Dharma, Kutumba, Grama, Rajya and Vishwa are called as KUKARMA. Such acts are called PAPA or SINS.May it be myself or any of you,at some point in our lives, we must have sinned. Sins can be committed by though, speech and actions. In each case, we increase our Karmic reaction load for this and the next birth resulting into suffering of Mind , Body and Souls. In order to cleanse oneself of present birth Karmic reactions and reduce suffering, one needs to perform PRAYASCHITTA or Act of Repentance. Elsewhere I have stressed the importance of Prayer.No Prayer is effective if it is not preceded by element of Repentance. I want to stress the importance of Repentance or PRAYASCHITTA, here. No prayer, pooja or offerings to Lord or our ancestors' spirits in form of Shraddhha is complete if proper PRAYASCHITTA or REPENTANCE is not done for one's Karmas of present and the past births. PRAYASCHITTA is like a cleansing Fire, which burns your Sins. No one can escape Karma phala but by doing Prayaschitta the Conscience becomes clean and the suffering is considerably reduced. All planetary bad periods, bad transits (Gocharas) and bad Yogas in Horoscopes result into suffering. This is God's way of awarding punishment for Karma. So when Planetes are to be appeased and Shanti Prayogas are to be performed, IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT YOU DO THE NECESSARY PRAYASCHITTA OR REPENTANCE BEFORE SUCH POOJA. Various forms of Prayaschitta have been prescribed by our religious texts. I am simplifying the texts into a simple form as under and if it is done with full faith, I am sure it will be as good as doing such prayaschitta as laid down in Shastras. When you prepare yourself to do this prayaschitta, the best way is to ask for forgivance from wronged people. If this is not possible next best thing to do is tell the image of God or Goddess of your choice about all the sins committed by you. Among all the forms of God's images, the best is a Crystal or Sphatik. After getting the crystal form please do the poojas regularly for at least one full circle of Moon, i.e., 28 days and then treat crystal as living God and pour out your repentance to crystal. SIMPLE PRAYASCHITTA (REPENTANCE) PRAYER O God, I am suffering untold miseries due to my sins. I know that I have committed many sins and I need to be punished. I might have sinned knowingly or unknowingly in my past and present births. I might have committed acts which are not allowed in any society any religion or any place on earth. I might have pained many a soul living in all living things which we can see or which we cannot see. Such souls might have resided in plants or animals. Please help me cleanse my soul as I am truly regretting for such acts of sins. I promise that henceforth I will not commit such sins knowingly and do further acts of repentance by doing things beneficial to people, places and this universe. So help me God. To be contd......
