Like stated above, Jainism has many other specialities which
are not seen elsewhere. It would take not days or months, but
years to justify and describe all those specialities.
We were talking about the importance of pratikraman. A
householder who is enveloped constantly and 24 x 7 in the
abundant sins of Avirati, Mithyatva, love and hatred can
get rid of these sins not by donating gold and silver but by
performing the ritual of pratikraman. The main question here
is do we repent the sins performed throughout the day ?
If we repent those sins from the bottom of our hearts, then
the morning and evening pratikraman done to wash away
those sins won't seem like a burden.
