Pratikraman: Freedom Through Apology & Repentance (Abr.)Dada Bhagwan
Those seeking to lead a spiritual life inevitably face challenges in their sincere pursuit of spirituality and practice. As spiritual development progresses, facing the many unintentional mistakes made through mind, speech, and conduct become disconcerting.
Naturally one begins to wonder, “How to forgive and forget in unhealthy relationships?”, “How to forgive yourself - both for mistakes of the past and for ongoing mistakes in the present?”
One of the most powerful tools for spiritual healing of both past and present is repentance with sincere apology. Yet, it is rare to find a concise scripture on forgiveness.
In the book “Pratikraman: Freedom Through Apology & Repentance”, Gnani Purush (embodiment of Self knowledge) Dada Bhagwan describes the spiritual power of forgiveness prayer, and offers a precise formula for asking for forgiveness. The book allows anyone seeking to practice spiritual forgiveness prayer to easily understand how to repent, how to forgive someone, and self.
In the book “Death: Before, During & After”, Gnani Purush (embodiment of Self knowledge) Dada Bhagwan addresses age-old unanswered questions related to death and dying.
Dadashri offers in-depth answers to questions such as: “What is death?”, “What are the stages of dying and the signs of death?”, “What happens when you die?”, “Is there life after death, and can you provide proof of life after death?”, “Please explain reincarnation and describe the journey of souls?”
He also provides solutions to common concerns like: “How to stop anxiety about dying - how can I face my fear of death?”, “How to deal with stress, and manage grief and loss after losing a loved-one?”, “I’m facing death, please tell me how to become more spiritual?”
In this invaluable resource, Dadashri places death in a larger spiritual context by describing how to attain the Self; he explains that the knowledge of Self is the spirituality that liberates one from all suffering related to death and dying.

This document discusses aspects of connected speech in English. It explains that English is considered a stress-timed language, where stressed syllables tend to occur at regular intervals. It describes different rhythmic patterns in languages and the concept of feet in poetry. The document also covers assimilation, where sounds change depending on surrounding sounds, most commonly affecting consonants at word boundaries in English. Assimilation may involve changes in place of articulation but not voicing. Connected speech features like assimilation help words blend together smoothly in fast, casual speech.
This document provides stories from the traditions of Lord Jagannath in Puri, India. It begins with an index and prayers before launching into four stories:

1. King Sagar performed 99 Ashwamedha yagnas successfully, but during the 100th yagna, Indra hid the horse in the hermitage of Kapila Muni out of jealousy.
2. King Sagar's 60,000 sons attacked Kapila Muni in anger, thinking he was the culprit. Kapila Muni then burnt the sons to ashes using his mystical powers.
3. Bhagiratha, a descendant of King Sagar, worked hard to bring the Ganges river from heaven to earth to purify the ashes of his ancestors and bring them back to life.
This document provides a story from Panchatantra about a foolish lion and a clever rabbit. In the story, a lion is killing too many animals in the forest, so the animals agree to send one animal to the lion each day as food. When it's the rabbit's turn, he comes up with a plan. He arrives late and tells the lion that another lion has killed five rabbits meant for him. The angry lion demands to be taken to this other lion. The rabbit leads the lion to a deep well, where the lion falls in and drowns, saving the animals from his tyranny. The story teaches that intelligence is greater than strength.
1. The document discusses how the nautilus uses a technique similar to modern submarines for diving and surfacing. It has chambers in its shell that can fill with water or gas to increase or decrease its buoyancy, allowing it to dive deep or surface.
2. Submarines also use ballast tanks that fill with water or air to sink or rise. However, the nautilus can dive deeper to 450 meters, which requires withstanding immense pressure that it is uniquely designed for.
3. Its ability to produce gas and its specialized structure could not have developed on its own but reveals God as the innovative creator.
1. The document describes a sloka from the Srimad Bhagavatam that teaches about making truces even with enemies for the sake of self-interest, like how a snake and mouse trapped in a basket together must cooperate to escape.
2. It provides several examples of Krishna's diplomacy, including how he advised the demigods to make peace with the demons to churn the ocean of milk, how he tricked demons as Mohini to distribute nectar only to the demigods, and how he advised Arjuna strategically in the Mahabharata war.
3. Krishna showed diplomacy in strategizing with Karna and Duryodh
1) The story describes a prostitute named Pingala who waited in vain for customers and grew distressed as the night passed. She eventually renounced her desires and fixed her mind on the Supreme Lord Hari, achieving peace.
2) The avadhuta brahmana learned that hopes for sense gratification are the root of suffering, so one must give up such desires and meditate on Krishna to attain transcendental peace.
3) Several stories and examples are provided to illustrate how material desires bind us in suffering, but by dovetailing our desires in Krishna's service through devotion, our desires can be purified and unlimited enjoyment attained.
The document discusses innocence and how it relates to happiness. It provides two examples:
1) A foolish hog farmer who was trying to cheaply feed his pigs stool but was happily running down the road covered in stool himself, unable to see that this was a problem.
2) A story of Sant Tukaram, a saint who would remain absorbed in worshipping the lord through meditation and singing, undisturbed by daily needs.
It emphasizes that innocence must be kept through purity - pure education and engagement, and that repeated exposure to vices destroys innocence. Innocence alone is not enough and must be practiced with intelligence.
1) The document describes a lesson about a moth that becomes enticed by fire and loses its life, similar to how a fool loses their life chasing after attractive women and their beauty.
2) It provides examples to illustrate this lesson, including an analogy comparing viewing objects through a microscope versus camera, and a story about glamour first entering Vrindavan in the form of the demon Putana.
3) Other lessons and analogies described are the short-lived happiness of acquiring attractive things, viewing the world through the lens of scripture versus the glamour industry, and cases of people becoming enthralled by beauty and glamour.
The document is about lessons from a story told by Guru 10 about honeybees and a honey thief. It contains two summaries:
1) It tells the story of honeybees that work tirelessly to collect honey but do not enjoy it themselves, and a honey thief who cleverly steals all the honey. This teaches the lesson of learning to share possessions with others rather than just saving for oneself.
2) It then provides two stories as examples. The first is about an old woman who shares half her pomegranate with a sadhu, while others give much more but not all they have. The second story is about a man who helps a homeless person, realizing we all need help.
The guru teaches that one should remain calm and equipoised like the ocean, even during times of agitation or distress. Just as the ocean remains still despite rivers discharge into it during rains or lack of water during summer, a sage remains unaffected by desirable or undesirable situations. The story of the Avadhuta Brahmana who learns this from the sea is described. It encourages being like the ocean - calm on the surface but active beneath to serve the Lord.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Sanskrit Pronunciation Guide
Throughout the centuries, the Sanskrit language has been written in a variety of
alphabets. The mode of writing most widely used throughout India, however, is
called devanagri, which means, literally, the writing used in “the cities of the
demigods.” The devanagri alphabet consists of forty-eight characters: thirteen vowels
and thirty-five consonants. Ancient Sanskrit grammarians arranged this alphabet
according to practical linguistic principles, and this order has been accepted by all
Western scholars. The system of transliteration used in this book conforms to a
system that scholars have accepted to indicate the pronunciation of each Sanskrit
sound.
The vowels are pronounced as follows:
Sr.no Sr.no
1. a - as in but 7. å - as in rim
2. ä - as in far but held twice as
long as a
8. è - as in reed but held twice as
long as å
3. I - as in pin 9. l - as in happily=
4. é - as in pique but held twice
as long is i
10. e - as in they
5. u - as in push 11. ai - as in aisle
6. ü - as in rule but held twice
as long as u
12. o - as go
13. au - as how
The consonants are pronounced as follows:
Sr.no Gutterals
(pronounced from the
throat)
Sr.no Palatals
(pronounced with the middle of
the tongue against the palate)
14. k - as in kite 19. c - as in chair
15. kh - as in Eckhart 20. ch - as in staunch-heart
16. g - as in give 21. j - as in joy
17. gh - as in dig-hard 22. jh - as in hedgehog
18. ë - as in sing 23. ï - as in canyon
6. Gopal’s Fun School (GFS)
Hare Krsna Hare Krsna Krsna Krsna Hare Hare / Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare 2
Sr.no Labials
(pronounced with the lips)
Sr.no Semivowels
34. p - pine 39. y - as in yes
35. ph - as in up-hill 40. r - as in run
36. b - as in bird 41. l - as in light
37. bh - as in rub-hard 42. v - as in vine, except when
preceded in the same syllable
by the consonant, then as in
swan
38. m - as in mother
Sr.no Sibilants Sr.no Aspirate
43. ç - as in the German word
sprechen
46. h - as in home
44. ñ - as in shine
45. s - as in sun
Sr.no Anusvara Sr.no. Visarga
47. à - a resonant nasal sound as
in the French word bon
48. ù - a final h-sound: aù is
pronounced like aha; iù like
ihi.
There is no strong accentuation of syllables in Sanskrit, or pausing between words in a
line, only a flowing of short and long syllables (the long twice as long as the short). A
long syllable is one whose vowel is long (ä, é, ü, å, e, ai, o, au) or whose short vowels
followed by more than one consonant. The letters ù and à count as consonants.
Aspirated consonant (consonants followed by an h) count as single consonants.
Sr.no Cerebrals
(pronounced with the tip of
the tongue against the roof of
the mouth)
Sr.no Dentals
(pronounced like the cerebrals
but with the tongue against
the teeth)
24. ö - as in tub 29. t – tub
25. öh - as in light- heart 30. th - as in light- heart
26. ò - as in dove 31. d – dove
27. òh - as in red-hot 32. dh - as in red-hot
28. ì - as in sing 33. n - as in nut
