Baba
Working style of dharma
Namaskar,
Dharmasya súkśmá gatih [“The ways of dharma are very subtle”]. (1)
Ananda Marga philosophy says, "Dharma rakśati rakśitah – “One who protects dharma is protected by dharma.” Dharma saves the dhármika [the upholder of dharma] in the material sphere, in the subtle sphere and in the causal sphere. When dharma saves people in the material sphere, they experience it before their very eyes, they hear it with their ears, they feel it with the tenderness of touch." (2)
Dharma moves very secretly and while the followers of dharma may not recognize it initially, in the endgame there is always victory.

Heroes faced the sufferings
Many active margiis became paralyzed during the Emergency and withdrew themselves from Ananda Marga. And some heroes faced the sufferings and were arrested, put in jail, and lost their jobs. Then there was family clash, economic suffering, and public humiliation. But they did not cow down. They always asked Baba for the strength to carry on.
Then, after almost two years, the situation changed - the Emergency was over - and they got victory. Their jobs were reinstated. They got their back payment without doing the work. And, after getting a large amount of their accumulated salary, many of them constructed their own homes which was unthinkable earlier. Verily, all facets of their life were back in proper order.
Ananda Marga philosophy says, “With the increasing development of the power of reflection, dharmic people realize that dharma is always with them in a very subtle way. They further realize that their dharma and their beloved Parama Puruśa are one and inseparable. " (3)
Plus, during the jail period, they were blessed to get the opportunity to live in a deeply spiritual environment all the 24hrs with kiirtan, sadhana, satsaunga, bhajan etc.

After the Emergency, the public started appreciating them and those heroic margiis gained far more prestige than they lost. And they were recorded in the history of India as heroes and received a lifelong pension from the Indian government.
Conclusion
The overall idea is that standing up for a cause seems scary initially, which is why common people immediately back down. But, in the end, satya always gets victory. Top of all, Baba has brought us on this earth for some purpose and He knows better than us.
In one of His discourses He says one should ask Parama Purusa, "O' Lord, I have a very small brain and You have an infinite brain, how much can I think about my future welfare with my small brain. Not so much. You should think about my problems also." When this type of surrender comes then victory is sure.

in Him,
Viniit
Ananda Marga ideology guides us, “He possesses innumerable brains. What can you achieve with your one brain? The time is running out; you should say to Him, “You have so many brains. O Lord; so please think of me. What can I do with my single brain?” It is as if one is reminding Him by shedding tears.” (4)

Feelings of my heart
“Saorabha ene man upavane, jhainkrita hiyá tantriite, tumi ásiá chile samgiite…” (Prabhat Samgiita #0618)
Purport:
O’ Parama Purusa, You came into my mental garden with Your exquisite flower fragrance. You also came with Your divine music and resonated the chords of my heart.
O’ Lord, for ages and ages, the feelings of my heart were lying repressed and suppressed beneath heaps of pain, agony, and sorrow. You miraculously cleared up all those hurtful piles and awakened a new, sentient feeling in my mind, by arriving silently, tip-toeing, and playing Your enchanting melodies and glorious tunes.
Baba, the nectar of love was covered deep inside the speechless bud of my mind. You removed that cover, opened it, and softly came to me in a most sweet, intimate, and loving way. It is Your causeless grace…
