TEXTUAL ANCHOR
Begin with a traceable source
Bhagavad Gita 9.30–31; dharma repair traditions. The source is an anchor for study, not a claim that this modern guide is a verbatim passage or the only valid interpretation.
Study the source in context →Healing · RESPONSIBLE PRACTICE
Doṣa-parīkṣāSpiritual response to guilt
Distinguish useful remorse from global self-condemnation.
DAILY PRACTICE
Turn the teaching into conduct
State the action precisely, identify harm, apologize without demanding relief, make restitution and change the enabling condition.
DISCERNMENT
Keep the practice humane
Persistent or irrational guilt may need mental-health care.
REFLECTION
A question to carry
What repair is possible now?
Answer with one observable example. Spiritual maturity is better tested through truthfulness, steadiness, compassion, repair and useful action than through claims of status.
