B group copied from Islam

BABA
B group copied from Islam
Namaskar,
It is well-known that the founders of MPD dogma treat their so-called mahaprayan program in Tiljala as a yearly shraddha ceremony, or annual death day program.
The same Islamic dogma of "yearly shraddha" - observing the death of a human being year after year - has been named shraddhainjali and it is going on in the form of mahaprayan divas (MPD).
Each year, on so-called mahaprayan day food is served and gifts are given to the poor. Just like in the dogmatic Islamic shraddha ceremonies for deceased human beings.
Similarity between AMPS Mahaprayana and Islamic Mahaprayana (Urs)
Please pay attention to the Islamic holy tomb. There is a central decorated building, and inside that the tomb is there. It is obvious, there is so much crowd, so there is no room to go inside. So the followers are sitting and paying their homage to the deceased religious leader. Pay attention to how the crowd is gathered, and they are doing their ritual. Such similar things happen in Tiljala also, which are displayed in the second photo. In Islam this annual death ceremony is called “Urs”. But in our Bengal, it is called “Mahaprayan”. But the basic things are similar.
Above, the Islamic followers are sitting encircling the tomb and paying their homage to the deceased religious leader.
Indeed, this is the common Islamic dogmatic platform in India. Each year, the shraddhanjli or Urs of deceased leaders is performed. Dogmatic Islamics garland their tomb, offer food to the poor, and distribute clothing.
Since 1990, this same dogma has been going on in Ananda Marga in the form of the so-called mahaprayan occasion. Thus the so-called mahaprayan program in Kolkata mirrors Islamic dogma; plus so-called mahaprayan is openly observed as a type of mourning / sad ceremony.
Whereas in Ananda Marga, our annual festivals are marked by joy & celebration. No annual festival in our Ananda Marga is based on sorrow.
Ananda Marga philosophy states, "You may participate in all sorts of festivals which are blissful and free from defect." (Caryacarya - 2, Society chapter, point 35)
Mahaprayan program is just similar to Islamic dogma
Yet the "founders" of so-called mahaprayan have described the dogmatic MPD program as sad and solemn. By their description it is clear that they just copied the Islamic dogma of annual shraddha or Urs by doing mass feeding and distributing clothes etc.
Below is an excerpt from some of their emails that displays their way of describing the so-called mahaprayan gathering.
"The Solemn Observation...With tears in eyes and hearts full of His memories...The anniversary of Mahaprayan of Shrii Shrii Anandamurtijii has been solemnly observed today...where His mortal remains were cremated...Central and global workers first went to His quarters to garland His Pratikrti and did Gurupuja in that vibrating room. Led by Ac. Kinshuk Ranjan Sarkar, all came to Baba's memorial ...There was mass feeding of more than a thousand poor people and about 500 persons were given new clothes...Exactly at 3.30 pm, the Maha Kiirtan.”
Over the years, this is the way or style that B group PRS has announced the gathering. And still this is going on.
This same course of events happens in all the dogmatic Urs programs across India. So MPD is not some glorious thing invented by certain Dadas, rather the so-called mahaprayan program is just the prevailing dogma that is common in all of India. Baba Himself condemns such antics.
Thus from top to bottom - the "solemnity" and sadness to food distribution etc - the whole so-called mahaprayan agenda is painted in the colour of the dogmatic Islamic shraddha ceremony. For that reason and more, mahaprayan is just one dogma.
See what is going on here
Similar to Islamic dogma, here also followers of dogma are sitting encircling the holy tomb and paying their homage and observing the annual death ceremony, like the previous image you saw, the way Islamic followers were doing. There also you saw, in the centre there was a tomb, and the followers were paying their homage, gathering all around the tomb. That Islamic annual death ceremony is called Urs, and here in our AMPS we call it Mahaprayana. It is just a translation of the same term. Islamic Mahaprayana is more than several centuries old. But AMPS Mahaprayana is a recent phenomenon. So it is obvious that our dada Sarvatmananda borrowed it from Islam. Here below, our dadas are encircling the tomb and observing the solemn annual death day commemoration which is 100% against the pre-1990 Caryacara.

Namaskar,

Shankar Basu
Ananda Marga philosophy states, "You may participate in all sorts of festivals which are blissful and free from defect." (Caryacarya - 2, Society chapter, point 35)
Our brothers and sisters do just the opposite of what Baba has ordered
The worse of the worst is, all-pervading, ever-present Sadguru is treated as a mortal human being. And the degeneration does not end there. For mortal human beings, Baba has made the system that there will not be any annual death ceremony. Sadly here, some of our confused brothers and sisters, they do just the opposite of what Baba has ordered. Look-- they are doing annual death ceremony, year after year. Which is doubly sinful. In consequence, in AMPS things are in chaos and disarray. That is what happens when you go directly against Bhagavata Dharma. Then you invite a big catastrophe. And that is what is happening today in AMPS.

Discourses, recordings, & Baba's feigned anger

Baba

Discourses, recordings, & Baba's feigned anger

Namaskar,
It is commonly known that many of the discourses delivered in 1978, just after the jail period, did not get recorded. Those present thought there was no reason to record since Baba was speaking only to them. This was their defective outlook.

Then on 15 October 1978, addressing the situation, Baba feigned anger, scolded them, and pretended to express His fury. (Be sure to read the in-depth study section appended below about feigned anger). During the scolding, Baba charge-sheeted the concerning in-charges by strongly accusing them, "Why were those discourses not recorded?"


Baba speaks for all - present and future


Then Baba told, "I'm not only speaking for those few sitting before Me. I speak for all."

The sense was that His talks on dharma are not limited by time, space, and person. These discourses are beyond the three relative factors. They are for all, up to eternity. They are absolute guidelines for all of humanity. So it is not that Baba was speaking only to those who were present that time. They are for all.

Thereafter, everyone became extremely serious and vigilant to record each and every discourse. This above incident happened just after the jail period, in October of 1978. Next we examine more of the history regarding the recording of Guru’s discourses.

Most discourses of that era were lost


The first DMC was held in Jamalpur in 1955. You may be aware that prior to 1970 many of the DMC discourses recorded, in one form or another. For instance, from 1955 - 1962, those DMC discourses were noted down via shorthand notes. This was done by sadhakas like Vijay Asthana ji, Shrii PK Chatterjee, Har Govind Mandal ji, Sushil Dhar ji, Shrii Sunil Kant Mukherjee, Anil Bhattacarya ji, Ram Kumar ji (for Ananda Doota magazine), Indradeva Gupta ji, Nagina ji, Ac Sujit ji, and Suresh ji engineer of Patna etc.

And then in 1962, audio recording was introduced using reels. But although the DMC discourses were recorded, not all could be preserved. Many Hindi discourses were lost or destroyed for various reasons: police raids during Emergency, humidity and environmental factors, improper storage, and just plain lack of care and overall disorganisation. Thus many of those DMC were recorded - via one media or another - but were lost. Only a fraction of the Hindi and English but most bangla recordings survived.

However, during that same time period of 1955 - 70, almost none of the general darshans were recorded, neither by notation nor by audio. This was due to the dogma that the darshans were only meant for those attendance that day. Where are the general darshan discourses from that time? Tragically, they are not available. They could not never recorded via any media. Alas, they are lost for humanity.


What happened to those early discourse from 1955 - 70


Many may recall that 1969-70 was the year where Baba gave so many demonstrations in Ranchi. And every day He explained those demonstrations in lengthy discourses - daily. But nothing was recorded. Dada Vijayananda ji was noting down a few lines each day.

Those noted lines that Dada Vijayananda wrote were 1% of the discourse. And of those hundreds of discourses only a handful were printed in their miniature form in one of the Ananda Vacanamrtam books etc. The bulk of those hundreds of discourses were lost.

And those notes are only one or two paragraphs of one particular entire day's worth of darshans. So by seeing the size of the paragraph or discourse, one can see that this is just 1% of the real discourse of on day. And that's also not original, but just notes. Why did this happen? Because those days, people were not careful to record Baba's discourses. Many were thinking that Baba is just speaking for that very audience which is sitting before Him.


Conclusion: Coming on this earth will be useless

The advent of Mahasambhuti is not a regular affair. He takes advent in the transitional period when animal and human values become one. People forget their humanity and start living and thinking like beasts. That time Mahasambhuti comes in this quinquelemental world. And He graces and guides the society for as long as humanity exists on this earth and beyond. So His teachings are eternal - apta vakya. They are beyond the three relative factors. The main point is that whatever Baba has spoken should be documented “as is” and disseminated everywhere. That way, those present today will get the proper idea and those humans who take birth after thousands of years will also be benefited. If we forget this very fact and are not to protect and disseminate Guru’s teachings in their purest form then our coming on this earth will be useless.

Namaskar,
In Him,
Sarvajinana

All Baba's teachings on dharma are apta vakya

As we are aware, there are two types of knowledge. One is transitory in nature; that is called pra'pta va'kya. That is always changing according to time, space, and person. Today that type of knowledge is accurate, and tomorrow it may not be.

A few examples of this are: It is raining outside; Shyam is a small boy; my address is 102 Main Street etc. All of these statements are subject to change. And indeed all knowledge related with the mundane world is subject to change. Either that knowledge is going to change the very next day, or after 100,000 years, or one million years later. Everything is going to change and that is why this worldly knowledge is termed as prapta vakya or relative knowledge.

The other type of knowledge is absolute knowledge. That is a'pta va'kya; a'pta va'kya is eternal - unchangeable. Here below are some of the essential qualities and characteristics of apta vakya.

Ananda Marga philosophy states, "The proper mark of identity of absolute knowledge is that it must be universal, rational and psychological. Certain instances of absolute knowledge are as follows – the goal of human life is the attainment of Brahma; human beings are the progeny of Parama Puruśa; this universe is created by the macrocosmic conation; matter is the crudified form of the universal mind; by dint of sádhaná or spiritual practices human beings gradually become divine; whoever is born will have to die one day; liberation is the birth right of all living beings; human society is one and indivisible; diversity is the law of nature; no two entities in this universe are uniform." (1)

Absolute knowledge is universal, rational and psychological


Thus apta vakya must be rational, logical, and based on universal welfare. As we know there are many who claim that their prophet preaches apta vakya and that all should blindly follow those dictates. But upon examination, it is evident that those teachings are partial towards a particular community, or illogical, or against universal welfare etc. That is how we know those teachings are not apta vakya, despite what those followers proclaim.

"The proper mark of identity of absolute knowledge is that it must be universal, rational and psychological."

As Ananda Margiis, we should always ensure that any teachings purported to be apta vakya hold up to those aforementioned qualities.

Ananda Marga ideology guides us, "For a bhakta, only a'pta va'kya has value. What comes from Parama Purusa is a'pta va'kya....As devotees, you should follow only a'pta va'kya." (2)

The philosophical and spiritual treatises given by Sadguru Lord Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji perfectly embody and represent the criteria of apta vakya. Any type of rational analysis proves this.

Ananda Marga philosophy guides us, "A'pta va'kya" or "absolute knowledge". Absolute knowledge is the direct message from God...The books in A'nanda Ma'rga philosophy are all absolute knowledge." (3)

Thus Baba's teachings of darshan shastra (our philosophical treatise) and dharma shastra (oue spiritual treatise) are a'pta va'kya. These guidelines from Baba are eternal and ever-true. With the change of time, space, and person, they do not vary. It is permanent. All the discourses on dharma which Baba has given are eternal teachings - for everyone, i.e. all of humanity.


Baba’s display of feigned anger

The Propounder of Ananda Marga, Baba - Lord Shrii Shrii Anandamurti ji is the embodiment of dharma. One of the characteristics of a dharmika is akrodha or non-anger. Baba perfectly embodies this quality. Those close to Baba understood that He never becomes angry. Only He would feign anger or show as if He is angry in order to teach and impress upon others the severity of a particular situation. By this way He would express feigned anger. Only confused people say that Baba was ever furious or mad etc. Just He would display anger externally in order to lovingly guide His devotees.


Feigned anger vs tamasik krodha

When overcome by anger, one does not have control over their nerve cells and nerve fibres. Their face gets red and their body starts trembling and ultimately they lose control over their motor and sensory organs. In that case, they may succumb to an uncontrollable rage, talk in an irrational manner, and lose all their physical and intellectual strength. When a person is overpowered in this way, it is known as tamasik krodha.

In contrast, when you feign anger then you are not affected internally. Internally one does not lose their rationality - just they may use their voice to get their point across.

So in feigned anger you are in control - you are the master of your anger vrtti - and in real anger you are a slave to your anger vrtti. Those who are overwhelmed by this vrtti later repent, because they do nonsense things and harm others. That anger is very harmful, whereas feigned anger is not.

When protesting against injustice and fighting the exploiters, a dharmika must always employ feigned anger - never real anger. With feigned anger one will maintain their psychic composure and be more effective in their approach. They will easily be able to inspire good people and outduel the exploiters. Feigned anger is a way to show the sinners that you will not tolerate their injustices, but at the same time you will have your full rational mind in tact.

Whereas when one is overcome be true anger they will lose one's faculties and often hurt themselves or someone else unnecessarily.

One can usually analyse if one's anger was real or feigned by assessing the entire situation.

You should not allow the instinct of anger to take control of you


Here are two of Baba's guidelines about feigned anger:

Ananda Marga ideology says, "You should not be misguided or swayed away or unduly influenced by krodha or anger. Anger means to remain under the influence of the nerve cells and fibres instead of under the influence of the subtler layers of mind. It is therefore very dangerous...you should not allow the instinct of anger to take control of you. If this happens it is called “static anger”." (4)

Ananda Marga ideology guides us, "“Akrodha”. Krodha means anger. Akrodha means “free from anger”. A dhármik person – and indeed an intelligent person – must be free from anger...Suppose you are free from anger, but your opponent is quite angry with you; so angry that his or her hands and feet are trembling and his or her faculty of judgment is paralysed. If you say something rational, he or she will be defeated because the mind has become restless and fails in any logical argument. He or she is sure to be defeated in argumentation. Even if it comes to a physical fight, he or she will surely be defeated because, with hands and feet trembling, he or she will fall down at the slightest push. So if you are clever you will avoid anger. Rather, you should make your opponent angry – that will surely make you victorious in the fight. Many experienced lawyers succeed in making the [[witnesses]] of the opposing party angry, and thus manage to extract much valuable information. So one of the criteria for a dhármika person is to be free from anger." (5)


Tamasik anger

Those who suffer from tamasik anger:
(a) they lose all their physical and intellectual strength
(b) they talk in an irrational manner
(c) they get flushed and red in the face
(d) their body starts trembling
(e) they do not have control over their nerve cells and nerve fibres
(f) their emotions are beyond their control
(g) their hands and feet are trembling
(h) they fall down at the slightest push
(i) their faculty of judgement is paralysed
(j) they become restless mentally
(k) they fail in any logical argument
(l) they are overpowered by anger

If you see anyone like this then it will be clear he is in the noose of tamasik anger.


Feigned anger

Those who display / feign anger:
(a) they do not lose all their physical and intellectual strength
(b) they do not talk in an irrational manner
(c) they do not get flushed and red in the face
(d) their body does not start trembling
(e) they have control over their nerve cells and nerve fibres
(f) they keep calm and keep their emotions in check
(g) their hands and feet are not trembling
(h) they do not fall down at the slightest push
(i) their faculty of judgement is not paralysed
(j) they do not become restless mentally
(k) they do not fail in any logical argument
(l) they are not overpowered by anger

If you see anyone like this then it will be clear he is not in the noose of tamasik anger; rather he is expressing feigned anger.

नमस्कार,
प्रज्ञा भारती पत्रिका (प्रति संख्या २५०) के १५वे पृष्ठ पर पुरोधा प्रमुख आचार्य विश्वदेवानन्द जी द्वारा लिखित एक अत्यन्त ही आपत्तिजनक लेख की प्रस्तुति की गई है | इस लेख का शीर्षक है “कल्पतरु" | इस लेख में PP दादा ने आनन्दमार्ग की शिक्षाओं के बजाय हिन्दू सम्प्रदाय में प्रचलित भावजड़तापूर्ण गलत शिक्षाओं का प्रचार किया है | विशेष रूप से PP दादा ने श्रीमद्भगवद्गीता के एक ऐसे श्लोक की व्याख्या प्रस्तुत की है जिसका पूज्य बाबा ने कभी अपने किसी भी प्रवचन में उपयोग नहीं किया | पूज्य बाबा के प्रवचनों में इस श्लोक का न होना इस बात का स्पष्ट सूचक है कि इस श्लोक का आनन्दमार्ग की शिक्षाओं में कोई स्थान नहीं | इसके बावजूद आचार्य विश्वदेवानन्द जी ने न केवल इस श्लोक का अपने लेख में उपयोग किया बल्कि इसके माध्यम से भावजड़तापूर्ण गलत शिक्षाओं का प्रचार भी किया है |
PP दादा के लेख (प्रज्ञा भारती, प्रति संख्या २५५, मई-जून २०१६, २०वां पृष्ठ) का स्कैन चित्र नीचे दर्शाया गया है | ध्यान से देखिए इस स्कैन चित्र को जिस में हिन्दू सम्प्रदाय में प्रचलित एक काल्पनिक क़िस्से को आनन्दमार्ग की शिक्षा के रूप में प्रस्तुत किया है PP दादा ने |
ऊपर दिखाया गया स्कैन चित्र आचार्य विश्वदेवानन्द जी द्वारा लिखा गया प्रज्ञा भारती पत्रिका (प्रति संख्या २५०)  के १५वे  पृष्ठ में छपे लेख का है | इस लेख में PP दादा ने हिन्दू सम्प्रदाय में प्रचलित एक काल्पनिक क़िस्से को आनन्दमार्ग की शिक्षा के रूप में प्रस्तुत किया है |

पी.पी. का हिन्दू डोग्मा के समक्ष आत्मसमर्पण
डोग्मा: सृष्टि लम्बवत्‌‌ (vertical) - अधोमुखी (उलटे) पीपल वृक्ष से तुलना
पुरोधा प्रमुख आचार्य विश्वदेवानन्द जी (PP दादा) के अनुसार सृष्टि एक अधोमुखी (उलटे) पीपल वृक्ष की भाँति है जिसका मूल ऊपर एवं तने और पत्तियाँ नीचे है | इस सृष्टि वृक्ष को कल्पतरु की संज्ञा दी गई है | इस कल्पतरु के मूल (जड़) की तुलना ब्रह्म से की गई है जो क्रमशः पञ्चभूत में रूपान्तरित होते (बदलते) है और जिनसे जीव-जगत्‌‌ का उद्भव (विकास) होता है | जीव-जगत्‌‌ के उद्भव के क्रम में मनुष्य का सृजन, इस प्रक्रिया का चरम बिन्दु होता है | इस कल्पतरु के पत्तों की तुलना ब्रह्म-ज्ञान से की गई है |
उपरोक्त व्याख्या में PP दादा ने सृष्टि के विकास के क्रम की तुलना एक लम्बवत्‌‌ (vertical) वृक्ष, जिसकी जड़ें, शाखाएँ, और पत्ते एक सीधी रेखा में होते है, से की है | पुरोधा प्रमुख के क़िस्से के अनुसार निर्गुण ब्रह्म इस लम्बवत्‌‌ (vertical) वृक्ष के मूल हैं और प्रकृति के गुणों के प्रभाव में आकर सगुण ब्रह्म में और तत्पश्चात पञ्चभूत में रूपान्तरित होते है | इसके उपरान्त विकास के क्रम में जीव-जगत्‌‌ और मनुष्य का उद्भव होता है | किन्तु इस लम्बवत्‌‌ (vertical) व्यवस्था में मनुष्य को ब्रह्म (वृक्ष के मूल) तक पहुँचने के लिए विपरीत दिशा में अर्थात्‌ छोटे जीव रूप और पञ्चभूत के रास्ते से होकर जाना होगा | यह एक काल्पनिक और गलत व्याख्या है |
निम्नाङ्कित चित्र में हिन्दू सम्प्रदाय के काल्पनिक क़िस्से को, जिसे PP दादा आनन्दमार्ग की शिक्षा के रूप में प्रस्तुत कर रहे है, दर्शाया गया है | इस काल्पनिक क़िस्से के अनुसार सृष्टि एक अधोमुखी  वृक्ष के समान है |
ऊपर दिखाए गए चित्र में सृष्टि की तुलना एक अधोमुखी वृक्ष से की गई है | इस वृक्ष की जड़ें ऊपर की ओर हैं | इस चित्र के माध्यम से हिन्दू सम्प्रदाय की मान्यता को दर्शाया गया है | जैसे ब्रह्म से जीव-जगत्‌ और मनुष्य का विकास होता है वैसे ही इस वृक्ष में जड़ों से तना और शाखाएँ उत्पन्न होती है | हिन्दू सम्प्रदाय की मान्यता के अनुसार सृष्टि की व्यवस्था वृक्ष की तरह लम्बवत्‌‌ (vertical) है |
सृष्टि का यह वृक्ष की तरह लम्बवत्‌‌ चित्र आनन्दमार्ग दर्शन के प्रतिकूल है | सृष्टि का लम्बवत्‌‌ (vertical) होना एक सरासर गलत चित्र है जिसे आचार्य विश्वदेवानन्द जी आनन्दमार्ग की शिक्षा के रूप में प्रस्तुत कर रहे है |
आनन्दमार्ग दर्शन: सृष्टि अण्डाकार, लम्बवत्‌‌ नहीं 
सृष्टि को आनन्दमार्ग में सृष्टि-चक्र भी कहा गया है | इस चक्र के दो हिस्से होते है - सञ्चर और प्रतिसञ्चर | सञ्चर में सूक्ष्म पुरुष प्रकृति के गुणों के प्रभाव में आकर स्थूल पञ्चभूत में परिणत होते है | प्रतिसञ्चर में स्थूल पञ्चभूत जीवन के माध्यम से पुनः सूक्ष्म ब्रह्म में विलीन हो जाता है | प्रतिसञ्चर में जीवन के क्रम में छोटे जीवों से उन्नत जीवों का और अन्ततः मनुष्य का  उद्भव होता है | मनुष्य जीवन में साधना के द्वारा जीव पुनः सूक्ष्म ब्रह्म को प्राप्त करता है |
आनन्दमार्ग दर्शन के अनुसार - “Thus the entire creation has two phases. The first phase is the process of the transformation of subtle into crude and the second is that of crude into subtle.” (हिंदी अनुवाद : इसलिए सृष्टि के दो चरण होते हैं | प्रथम चरण में सूक्ष्म स्थूल में रूपान्तरित होता है और द्वितीय चरण में स्थूल सूक्ष्म में |)​ (१)
आनन्दमार्ग दर्शन के अनुसार सृष्टि लम्बवत्‌‌ (vertical) न होकर चक्रवत्‌ (circular) है (निम्नाङ्कित चित्र को देखें) |
ऊर्ध्व (ऊपर दिया गया) ​अण्डाकार चित्र आनन्दमार्ग दर्शन के अनुकूल है | किन्तु PP दादा ने आनन्दमार्ग दर्शन के विपरीत हिन्दू सम्प्रदाय के काल्पनिक क़िस्से को प्रस्तुत किया है | ऐसा करके वे शायद अपने आपको एक ज्ञानी कहलवाना चाहते है | किन्तु पूज्य बाबा की शिक्षाओं का प्रचार न कर एवं हिन्दू सम्प्रदाय में प्रचलित काल्पनिक व झूठे क़िस्से को सुना कर वे वास्तव में मूर्खता का ही तो परिचय दे रहे है |
पूज्य बाबा के चरण-कमल में,
भक्ति
विस्तृत जानकारी के लिए--
सृष्टि की व्याख्या को आनन्दमार्ग के अनुकूल न करके हिन्दू सम्प्रदाय के क़िस्से को सुनाना शायद आचार्य विश्वदेवानन्द जी की मात्र एक भूल नहीं है | यदि यह एक भूल होती तो इसे वह बार-बार न दोहराते | प्रज्ञा भारती के पिछले अङ्क में भी सृष्टि की पीपल वृक्ष से तुलना की गी है | इस वेबसाइट के माध्यम से पहले भी इसी विषय में अंग्रेज़ी में एक पोस्टिंग की गी थी | इसके बावजूद मई-जून २०१५ और फिर मई-जून २०१६ में पुनः प्रज्ञा भारती में इसी लेख को छापा गया | निम्नाङ्कित स्कैन चित्रों में स्पष्ट रूप से देखा जा सकता है कि कैसे इस हिन्दू सम्प्रदाय के डॉगमा को आनन्दमार्ग के मुख्य मैगज़ीन में पुनः-पुनः छापा जा रहा है |

Pauseless struggle
“Struggle is the essence of life. Yours should be a pauseless struggle against corruption, hypocrisy and animality.” (Ananda Vanii #11)
Note 1: True Ananda Vaniis have a number whereas Fake Ananda Vaniis do not - just as a fake car license plate has no number. By this way, you can easily recognise a Fake Ananda Vanii.
== Section 3: Important Teaching ==
How majority are fools
Prout philosophy says, “There are several forms of governmental structure, and among them the democratic structure is highly appreciated [by some persons]. Democracy is defined as “government of the people, by the people and for the people.” But in fact it is the rule of the majority. Hence democracy means “mobocracy” because the government in a democratic structure is guided by mob psychology. The majority of the society are fools; wise people are always in a minority. Thus, finally democracy is nothing but “foolocracy”.” (2)
Note: Given the present political climate around the world, democracy is the best option. But democracy does have its shortcomings. Currently, the chief criteria for voting is age. If one has reached a certain age then that makes them eligible to vote. Yet we all know that age alone does not certify that one is truly qualified one to vote in a mature and meaningful manner. To cast a meaningful vote, socio-political awareness is needed.
However, nowadays this is a very delicate issue. People feel that all should be allowed to vote - not just a select few. Because, since long, in the name a selecto-electoral system, voting rights were only given to the dominant group. For instance, in the US, only white males were allowed to vote for nearly two centuries. Relatively recently, after an extended battle, voting rights were granted to women, African-Americans, and others etc. That is why today, if you mention the benefits of the selecto-electoral system, people become terrified. They think that only the ruling group will have voting rights and all others will be subjected to unfair treatment. They feel they just eradicated that misery and now you want to bring it back.
Yet as society advances, people will realise the need to have a socially & politically conscious electorate. One should have sufficient knowledge of the various parties and what their platforms are. If such a system is properly implemented, and really only socially & politically conscious people can vote, then the world will be a different place. There will be so many positive changes. In due course it is going to happen. Unfortunately, because of the shortcomings in present-day system, the majority of voters are fools. Hence, democracy is nothing but foolocracy

Namaskar,

Ananda Marga philosophy says, "The base propensities which lie dormant in everyone are easily stimulated by constant association with bad people. Through the united efforts of parents, people living in the locality and educators, it may be possible to save children from bad company. But it is very difficult to save them from the evil influences which reside in their own homes or preponderate in their neighbourhood. The only way to overcome such influences is to popularize the ideals of dharma, spread moral education and train an honest police force." (1)

Ananda Marga philosophy says, "In the modern world there is a wide variety of films which excite the passions and have a degrading influence on boys and girls, adolescents and young men and women. Such films create in cinema-goers the desire to emulate in their individual lives the criminal activities, the vulgar expressions of love, or the adventurous behaviour that they see enacted on the screen. This is another example of how keeping bad company causes depravity. Many cinema-goers imagine that the characters that they see on the screen are their actual acquaintances, but when they try to emulate these characters, they discover that the real world is much tougher than the world portrayed by the cinema. If their family ties are weak, if they are their own guardians or if they have no high ideals to inspire them, it will be extremely difficult, although not impossible, to save them from bad influences." (2)

Note: Now read about the below incident. Then it will be quite clear how the very thing Baba is warning about has taken shape, tragically.


Teen's 4-day killing spree inspired by 'The Purge,' court docs say

Johnathan Cruz talked about leaving town after he'd started his "purge," according to court documents. The 19-year-old had already killed twice, court documents said, and he told one of his girlfriends he needed to leave Indianapolis "asap." But another man died before Cruz finally would be arrested, ending a four-day crime spree modeled after the plot of the horror film series "The Purge," in which the United States government designates a 12-hour period where all crimes, including murder, are legal.

Cruz now faces three murder charges in connection with the shooting deaths of Billy Boyd and Jay Higginbotham on May 12, and Jose Ruiz on May 15. He also faces a slew of other felony charges connected to the alleged crimes, including robbery, intimidation and more. Prosecutors are also pursuing a criminal gang enhancement.
His initial hearing is set for 1:30 p.m. on June 2 in Criminal Court 3, and, because of the circumstances of the crimes, prosecutors say Cruz could face life in prison without parole, or the death sentence.


'Purge' victim remembered by Holy Spirit congregation

"We will not make that decision any earlier than at least 30 days down the road," said Marion County Prosecutor Terry Curry during a press conference Wednesday, also noting that the teen's victims "appeared to be 100 percent random."

After Curry announced charges against Cruz, Mayor Joe Hogsett released a statement: "Senseless acts of violence such as those alleged in this case are incomprehensible, but thanks to the swift actions of IMPD detectives, Prosecutor Terry Curry and witnesses willing to come forward, we are one step closer to providing answers for these victims’ families.”

A probable cause affidavit describes the disturbing details of the four-day spree — one that, detectives believe, is affiliated with criminal gang activity." (3)


Conclusion

Allowing children to watch horros films and play degrading games etc means knowingly harming them.

In Him,
Pavitra

Rare Teaching of Baba: Sign of Weak Mind

BABA
Rare Teaching of Baba: Sign of Weak Mind
Namaskar,
Ananda Marga ideology says, “Imagine a scoundrel is standing in front of you. The man is such a rogue that you feel like slapping him, but do not actually do it. It is only when you decide, ‘Let me slap that scoundrel’, that your hands actually strike him. When the inner urge to externalise the feeling becomes strong enough, your hands leap into action. A great person is one who has complete control over the externalisation of thoughts. A thought will not always be expressed physically. One may have a desire to hit someone or a desire to steal, but never actually does it due to one’s self control.” (1)
Knee-jerk reaction is the sign of a weak mind
Various people react differently to the same set of circumstances. For example, if one person in the market suddenly abused Mr. A and Mr. B.  Then Mr. A and Mr B will react differently. By listening to the unjust abuse, Mr A violently kicked the boy in his stomach. In contrast, when the same person abused Mr. B then Mr. B remained calm and patient to see how the situation developed.
According to the above teaching, Mr A has a weak mind because of his hasty, knee-jerk reaction. Whereas Mr B has a stronger mind as he exercised restraint over his motor organs. The final teaching is, “Do not react immediately - try to have control over your organs and do not allow your hands, feet, mouth etc (i.e. the motor organs) to quickly and impulsively jump into action.” For that mental force is needed. Otherwise those organs will react automatically, without the support of the intellect.
Mr. A's leg kicked impulsively & killed the boy
In the above example, Mr. A dealt the boy a deadly kick in the stomach due to which he died. And for that Mr. A got arrested and convicted in court on charges of capital punishment. So this is the example of thoughtless action. And according to the above Baba's teaching, A has no control over his nerve fibers. And that is because of weak mind. The weak mind cannot control the nerve fibers, and in result Mr. A's leg came impulsively into action without the obvious support of mind, and killed the boy. Later on, the whole life Mr. A repented for the crime which he committed without thinking seriously, in the spur of the moment. Many who do not practice yoga and meditation, do not have control over their mind. Their mind is weak, and at the simplest of issues their emotions will burst out-- anger, hatred-- and their motor organs will also jump into action without the control of mind.
Without thinking, hundreds of people jumped into the river
For example, there was a crowd on the bridge, due to a pilgrimage. And someone started a false rumour that a wild elephant is approaching on the run. So without thinking, hundreds of people jumped into the river-- and the majority died. This is a classic example of a knee-jerk reaction. Their action is not supported by mind. This proves that those who jumped into the river, they are all weak-minded.
Why does this happen? Due to lack of sadhana, the mind is very weak. So watch out-- if someone’s mind is weak, and at the simplest of issues their emotions will burst out-- anger, hatred-- and their motor organs will also jump into action without the control of mind.  And that's what Baba is guiding us in His below teaching.
Namaskar,
In Him,
Svarnadiipti
Ananda Marga ideology says, “Imagine a scoundrel is standing in front of you. The man is such a rogue that you feel like slapping him, but do not actually do it. It is only when you decide, ‘Let me slap that scoundrel’, that your hands actually strike him. When the inner urge to externalise the feeling becomes strong enough, your hands leap into action. A great person is one who has complete control over the externalisation of thoughts. A thought will not always be expressed physically. One may have a desire to hit someone or a desire to steal, but never actually does it due to one’s self control.” (1)
Important thing to know--
Suppose you saw a beggar who was sitting in a very cold winter night on the roadside in the darkness. Moving along you saw him, and by seeing his pitiful condition, from your eyes tears of compassion came. And with kindness, you arranged for his food and covering, and also provided shelter. So the tears of kindness which were spontaneous after seeing this beggar, that was not the sign of a weak mind. Rather, that was the sign of a developed mind which has very positive instincts.
So the conclusion is that those who express their knee-jerk reaction under the spell of malevolent vrttis, they are weak-minded. And the opposite is the case with benevolent vrttis. If seeing someone in trouble, you jumped into action to save them, then that is a positive thing.

We should express reverence by not putting everywhere

Baba

This email contains two sections:

1. Posting: We should express reverence by not putting everywhere
2. Links



We should express reverence by not putting everywhere

Namaskar,
I believe that all pratikriti and videos of Baba should be treasured in libraries belonging to respected margii libraries and AM center offices libraries. No one should have free access to Guru's Varabaya mudra. This is an important aspect of the lessons. There can be no good that comes of plastering Baba's picture everywhere and His videos. I do watch these gems. But I do so on my knees, doing Namaskar mudra, and with great respect. I daresay this is not what is happening by the majority.

It is my wish that my Guru's pictures and video get off the web. Some think this is an impossible task. I do not. This is copyrighted material. It's not impossible.

Baba's approach is to be incredibly modest. He did not want Ananda Marga to be a cult of personality as you know. Even legitimate Ananda Marga sites display Baba's pictures.

We are living in a different time where it is possible to pirate any image one comes across. I believe Baba's pictures should belong to margiis and that's it.

It is possible to use the web to share Baba's pictures without having them be public. Anyone putting Baba's pictures in a public place should be stopped. I don't think Ananda Marga realizes the problem here. Of course one would not expect His picture on Wikipedia.

When I can afford, I would happily be willing to donate and get others to donate for lawyers in this regard. We know the split happened and that some factions cannot use the name Ananda Marga. This action, which was all about money, not Guru, is perhaps sad. But it makes a point. The Guru's image is copyrighted material.

For example. I am a chemist and I use secret methods in my work. What if I were to write a book for just for my students with the stipulation they should not show this book to ANYONE. And then they published it. I would have to sue them, if I could.

I know the books in Ananda Marga have Baba's picture. But that is far different than Baba on the web.

Think about how different it would be if someone said, well, show me this Guru you talk about and we say, "No. You are not a margii. Baba's pictures are protected and are only for margiis." Is that not how it should be?

Thank goodness I have not found any of the lessons on the web! But I suspect if one looked hard enough, it is possible one could find them. Of course, since the lessons are personal and many require personal mantras, you would not get that.

We need to respect ourselves. Then the world is far more apt to respect us. The image of our Guru is sacred and not for all to see. It may cost money. It may cost a lot of money. But I believe it can be done. What must happen first is that margiis take action and band together on this issue. Even respected AM sites should take His picture off! And if someone wonders, why do I not see a picture of the Propounder of Ananda Marga when there is information about Him (they think with a big "H")? Because of Baba's desire and  because of margiis desire, we do not share the pictures with non-margiis. If you really want to see a picture of Baba, either become a margii, or read one of His books. There are pictures of Him in His books.

Who owns rights to all these pictures? Those who took them? Or Ananda Marga?

If the people who took the videos do not step up and take responsibility for them and help with this matter, they are no better than paparazzis, except that they are paparazzis who benefit from taking pictures of The Lord. These pictures and video are sacred and have not been treated this way.

Guru's picture should not help us with pracar! Only after one has become a margii should one have access, and with the understanding that Guru's pictures are not to be published anywhere without permission. Many may have seen how the book The Jamalpur Years used the wrong picture! This picture is an intimate picture of Baba and should not have been on the one tell all book. The best would have been if there had been no picture of Baba at all.

I hereby declare that all true margiis should treat Baba's videos and pictures with great respect. If a margii watches Baba's video, I suggest second lesson, doing pranam, then sitting on one's knees to watch. If at least we can all begin with this sentiment, it will make our effort to remove the pictures to where all can see that much easier. When Guru sees us taking effort, maybe He will help. And maybe this effort in the first place is by His Grace.

It might even be a good idea to put the screen where one sees a Baba video on a puja table.

In a retreat, I suggest that if Baba's videos are watched, we should build a mandap or whatever place Baba would have resided and place a large screen on that place.

No one should watch a Baba video simply sitting in a chair, possibly eating...as if this were the evening's entertainment.

Much Thanks for your attention. Namaskar again.

In Baba,
Bhaskar

Religious Chameleon

BABA

Religious Chameleon

Namaskar,

The following article is courtesy of Solon Magazine, author George Gillett. According to Neohumanism, it is very important to expose hypocrisy in any segment or facet of society. So we are presenting this article for you.

The West’s big lie about Mother Teresa: Her “glorification of suffering instead of relieving it” has had little impact on her glowing reputation

Reused needles, poorly trained staff and expired medications. The picture Hemley Gonzalez describes to me is not one often associated with adjectives such as “saintly” in the medical profession. Yet as he discusses his experience volunteering at facilities run by Missionaries of Charity, the organization Mother Teresa founded, it becomes increasingly apparent that few of his anecdotes correlate with the reputation she enjoys. “I was shocked to discover the horrifically negligent manner in which the charity operates,” he recalls.

His story is not atypical. Writing in the New Internationalist magazine about her experience working at Missionaries of Charity’s headquarters in Kolkata, another volunteer urged that the organization be “finally held accountable for its actions of abuse and neglect.” Similar concerns were raised in a 1994 UK documentary that featured the story of a 15-year-old patient who had been admitted with a “relatively simple kidney complaint.” His condition had deteriorated soon after the facility had refused to transfer him to a local hospital to undergo surgery.

Recklessness or malicious intent

Criticism of Mother Teresa’s mission has also come from the medical profession. Dr. Robin Fox, former editor of the medical journal the Lancet, described the Missionaries of Charity facilities as “haphazard” as early as 1994, recounting how he witnessed a young man with malaria be treated with only ineffective antibiotics and paracetamol. “Along with the neglect of diagnosis, the lack of good analgesia marks Mother Theresa’s approach,” he wrote in an article for the journal.

Today, Gonzalez runs an online campaign called Stop Missionaries of Charity. He hopes to “educate unsuspecting donors” about how their donations are spent on what he regards to be “a systematic human rights violation.” Aroup Chatterjee shares similar feelings. Born in Kolkata and now a doctor in the UK, he was inspired to write a book about Teresa’s legacy. It describes detailed accounts of her patients being denied visitors, refused painkillers and forced to shave their heads. “If people knew what she was actually like, they would find her repugnant,” he tells me, clearly frustrated by the manner in which the media have reported news that she is to be canonized this year.

These claims are in such contradiction with the Western narrative of Mother Teresa – a winner of the Nobel Peace Prize as well as a number of other accolades – that it’s hard to respond to them with anything other than disbelief. Having received hundreds of millions of dollars in donations, there are seemingly few excuses for such poor medical care aside from either recklessness or malicious intent. Yet either of these accusations would be met with fervent denial from even the staunchest of secularists. How, then, has somebody with such a troubled legacy enjoyed almost universal adoration from the world’s media?

She was motivated by a desire to fulfill her own religious convictions rather than altruistic concern

Much of the reason is undoubtedly related to the fact that Mother Teresa’s order does not perceive these examples to be failings. Speaking in 1997, she remarked that “the world is being much helped by the suffering of the poor people,” describing how it was “very beautiful for the poor to share [their suffering] with the passion of Christ.” For Mother Teresa, poverty and sickness were gifts that provided the opportunity to develop one’s connection with God. Her mission was not so much to alleviate suffering but to ensure it happened within a framework of religious belief. Indeed, by her own admission she was motivated by a desire to fulfill her own religious convictions rather than altruistic concern for the world’s poor. “There is always the danger that we may become only social workers … our works are only an expression of our love for Christ,” she told a BBC journalist in 1969. This attitude is manifestly disparate from the utilitarian principles by which humanitarian efforts are ordinarily judged.


Yet this reality, of Mother Teresa as a missionary first and an altruist second, is not the image that has taken precedence in the West. She won the Nobel Prize not for her religious convictions but “for work undertaken in the struggle to overcome poverty.” Reports from volunteers, journalistic investigations and academic research that decries her “glorification of suffering instead of relieving it” has had little impact on her glowing reputation. This remains as true within secular communities as religious ones, with pollsters consistently reporting that Americans consider her one of the most admired figures of the 20th century.

German news magazine Stern found that only 7 per cent of this money was being used for charitable activity

The extent to which Mother Teresa is considered a humanitarian hero is a significant victory for the Catholic Church, which coordinated a high-profile campaign to have her “fast-tracked” to sainthood. However, in many ways it is no surprise that she remains so popular among Westerners. She presented a narrative – that of a European nun going to help the world’s poor – that acted to both resolve the internal guilt of wealthy churchgoers while also presenting their religion as a relevant, modern force for good. Meanwhile, her conceptualization of suffering as a positive experience provided rebuttal to those who criticized the West’s repeated failings to inspire tangible action on global inequality.

Speaking on world tours, her fatalistic attitude toward poverty, combined with an insistence on remaining “apolitical,” defined her disinterest in confronting the structural causes of destitution. She presented to the West a perfect role model: a do-gooder who didn’t threaten to challenge the status-quo. In the words of Kolkata-born journalist Mihir Bose, “She’s part of the western agenda, it makes the West feel better; ‘this is one of us, once again rescuing the third world.’”

The rebranding of Mother Teresa’s religious mission as a humanitarian effort was also convenient financially. Despite comprehensive accounts never having been published, researchers estimate that Missionaries of Charity was receiving up to C$100 (USD$72) million in annual donations by the end of Mother Teresa’s life. A 1991 investigation by the German news magazine Stern found that only 7 per cent of this money was being used for charitable activity.

The money that was spent was spread incredibly thinly – across 610 missions in 123 countries – a sign that the quality of care was severely compromised by Mother Teresa’s desire to disseminate her religious agenda as widely as possible. Reports that nuns were taught to conduct “secret baptisms” on Hindu and Muslim patients only further suggest that her order’s interventions were at times actively detrimental as well as being a distraction from genuine humanitarian efforts.

In pioneering Missionaries of Charity, Mother Teresa adopted the role of a medical provider. As any doctor or nurse will testify, this role imparts certain responsibilities: to act only within your capabilities, to respect a patient’s best interests and to not impose your personal, religious or political beliefs on patient care. On all of these counts, Mother Teresa failed. Judged by any metric of medical standards, it is difficult to remember her legacy as anything other than an inefficient, sanctimonious and wholly ideological franchise.

Teresa of Kolkata should by all means be remembered as an extremely successful evangelist. But to claim she is a champion of altruism, medicine or humanitarianism would be to fundamentally misunderstand her mission.

Mother Teresa was not a friend of the poor
“One of Mother Teresa's most outspoken critics was the English journalist and literary critic Christopher Hitchens, who wrote the extended essay The Missionary Position: Mother Teresa in Theory and Practice (1995) and wrote in a 2003 article, "This returns us to the medieval corruption of the church, which sold indulgences to the rich while preaching hellfire and continence to the poor. [Mother Teresa] was not a friend of the poor. She was a friend of poverty. She said that suffering was a gift from God. She spent her life opposing the only known cure for poverty, which is the empowerment of women and the emancipation of them from a livestock version of compulsory reproduction."[124] (Wikipedia)
