Recién nacidos heridos en AM

Namaskar,

Las versiones originales de Caryacarya fueron dadas por Baba en bengalí en aquellos primeros días. La edición inglesa del Caryacarya fue traducida del original bengalí. Así que primero tenemos que ver lo que la versión original en bengalí de Caryacarya dice acerca de la circuncisión. Lo siguiente es el escaneo de la versión original bengalí junto con la traducción al inglés para su revisión.

Caryacarya original - Dieciséis puntos

La edición original en bengalí de Caryacarya - 2, punto #2 de los Dieciséis Puntos afirma claramente que no existe la circuncisión. A continuación se muestra la sección de la edición original bengalí de Caryacarya parte 2 (1997 Edn):

Traducción de la imagen anterior al español: “Males will keep the foreskin pulled back at all times” --

--> “Los varones mantendrán el prepucio retraído hacia atrás en todo momento”.

Aquí Baba nos dice que por salud e higiene, uno debe retraer el prepucio en el momento de la pubertad - antes de esa edad el prepucio puede permanecer como está. En Caryacarya, Baba nos indica que la circuncisión no se realiza en nuestro estilo de vida de Ananda Marga. Más bien, después de alcanzar la pubertad, el prepucio debe ser retraído hacia atrás.

Revisando el documento anterior queda bastante claro que según el Caryacarya original no hay lugar para la circuncisión; más bien, está prohibida.

Por alguna razón desconocida, la versión inglesa del CC ha sido alterada por algunas personas antisociales. Como resultado, los margiis de todo el mundo fueron engañados y confundidos, por desgracia. Algunos margiis sinceros circuncidaron a sus hijos pensando que era una orden de Baba, cuando en realidad no lo es. Ahora, por favor, lea de nuevo la traducción correcta anterior para su comprensión completa.

Un rabino succiona los genitales mutilados de un bebé

Justo debajo hay una foto del ritual judío de la circuncisión, conocido en hebreo como metzitzah b'peh. Como se puede ver, en esta ceremonia de mutilación, el genital del bebé es cortado y el indefenso niño está llorando. Y de forma grotesca, el sádico sacerdote se dedica a chupar la sangre del cuerpo del bebé mutilado. Es sádico, grosero y aborrecible. Y es muy doloroso e insoportable ver al niño sufrir de esta manera.

Baba ha creado AMPS para salvar a estos niños inocentes de las cadenas demoníacas del dogma. Pero desafortunadamente en nuestra AMPS todavía se realiza este ritual. La circuncisión se está llevando a cabo debido a la distorsión ejecutada por Tiljala Publications en Caryacarya. Así que esta es una llamada de atención para salvar a estas víctimas inocentes e indefensas. Recuerde que al ver a otros sufriendo, si usted no viene a ayudar, entonces de acuerdo a Caryacarya, usted se está comportando de muy mala manera en el nombre de Ananda Marga.

De nuevo, la foto de arriba representa el ritual judío de la circuncisión, conocido en hebreo como metzitzah b'peh. Como se puede ver, en esta ceremonia de mutilación, se cortan los genitales del bebé y el indefenso niño llora. Y de forma grotesca, el sádico sacerdote se dedica a chupar la sangre del cuerpo del bebé mutilado. Es sádico, grosero y aborrecible. Y es muy doloroso e insoportable ver al niño sufrir de esta manera.

Un bebé contrae una enfermedad venérea debido a la circuncisión

La foto de abajo corresponde a un recién nacido infectado por el virus del herpes simple. Este virus tiene consecuencias devastadoras y puede incluso causar la muerte de un recién nacido. Lamentablemente, el niño padece una enfermedad venérea. Todo porque en esta ceremonia semita mutilaron sin piedad los genitales del infante y el rabino chupó la sangre con su boca. Y este rabino que realizó este acto tenía una enfermedad sexual que transmitió al niño. Vean la cara y el cuerpo del infante llenos de costras, ampollas, llagas y marcas rojas; todo esto es por la infección del herpes. Los que aman a sus hijos no deben permitir que su bebé sea dañado de esta manera. La circuncisión significa invitar a la muerte, la destrucción y la enfermedad a su hijo. Cualquier margii que haga esto se enfrentará a la condena del Señor Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji. Eso es lo peor.

Conclusión

Trágicamente, las familias margii están sometiendo a sus inocentes e indefensos infantes al dolor y la tortura de la circuncisión en el nombre de Ananda Marga y Dieciséis Puntos. Todo debido al pecado de distorsión y traducción errónea cometido por Tiljala publications. Al hacer esta traducción errónea, han tergiversado groseramente este punto para los lectores de la edición en inglés de Dieciséis Puntos. Como resultado, niños inocentes han sido mutilados; es vergonzoso y no tienen excusa.

En Él,

Amrta

Retirar el prepucio en la pubertad

Aquí Baba nos guía que por salud e higiene, uno debe retraer el prepucio en el momento de la pubertad - antes de esa edad el prepucio puede permanecer como está.

En un resumen en español de Caryacarya - 3, “General Health Rules, Males point #1”, Baba nos dice: Inmediatamente después de alcanzar la adolescencia (en la India, se alcanza la adolescencia entre los doce y los catorce años), los varones deben comenzar a usar Kaopiina (laungotá) y deben retraer ́ hacia atrás el prepucio del pene. (resumen en español)

En un resumen en español de Caryacarya - 3, “General Health Rules, Males point #1”, Baba nos dice: El prepucio [en el momento de la adolescencia] debe ser retraído hacia atrás y la zona lavada y mantenida limpia. (resumen en español)

Por lo tanto, no hay lugar para realizar la circuncisión en el momento del nacimiento - o en cualquier momento. La directriz de Guru es que desde el nacimiento hasta la preadolescencia el prepucio debe permanecer tal cual, y luego en el momento de la pubertad el prepucio debe ser retirado hacia atrás.

Periódico: 4 bebés de NY contraen herpes por el rito de la circuncisión judía en los últimos 6 meses

Se han registrado casos desde septiembre por 'metzitzah b'peh'; los bebés fueron hospitalizados, recibieron antivirales intravenosos y ya se recuperan

Por Marcy Oster - 25 febrero 2020, 7:27

Este es un tema importante para toda nuestra comunidad de Ananda Marga.

Más de 100 muertes por circuncisión cada año en Estados Unidos

Cada año mueren en Estados Unidos más de 100 recién nacidos varones como consecuencia de la circuncisión y sus complicaciones. Esta es la alarmante conclusión de un estudio, publicado en la revista Thymos, que examinó las estadísticas de altas hospitalarias y mortalidad para responder a dos preguntas: ¿Cuántos bebés varones mueren como consecuencia de la circuncisión en el periodo neonatal (en los 28 días siguientes al nacimiento)? El estudio, realizado por el investigador Dan Bollinger, concluyó que en Estados Unidos se producen anualmente unas 117 muertes neonatales debidas directa o indirectamente a la circuncisión, es decir, una de cada 77 muertes neonatales masculinas. (Cortesía de circinfo.org)

La circuncisión es un dogma religioso

A continuación, Baba señala cómo la circuncisión no es más que una cruel costumbre perpetuada a lo largo de los siglos, de una religión semítica a otra.

En un resumen en español de Prout in a Nutshell - 21, “How to Unite Human Society”, Shrii Shrii Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar nos dice: Ciertas prácticas no eran originalmente rituales religiosos, sino tradiciones o costumbres. Hace mucho tiempo, los judíos empezaron a practicar la circuncisión. Cuando Moisés convirtió a algunos de sus contemporáneos al judaísmo, y más tarde cuando Mahoma convirtió a algunas personas del lugar al Islam, ninguno de los dos profetas se atrevió a instruir a sus nuevos seguidores para que desecharan las viejas costumbres que seguían, por lo que las viejas costumbres continuaron después de su conversión. (resumen en español)

Lo principal que Baba está afirmando es que "ninguno de los dos profetas se atrevió a instruir a sus nuevos seguidores para que desecharan sus antiguas costumbres."

No es diferente de aquellas comunidades tribales primitivas

Lamentablemente ahora nuestra AMPS no es diferente de aquellas regiones africanas y varias otras comunidades tribales que circuncidan brutalmente a las mujeres según su tradición local. Ha habido una protesta pública generalizada sobre esto y ahora estamos haciendo cosas similares en nuestro AMPS. Todo por culpa de la tergiversación cometida por Tiljala Publications.

No debemos callarnos. Este problema debe solucionarse. De lo contrario, si no señalamos el problema y no exigimos su corrección, cometeremos pratyavaya.

Comentarios después de ver la película sobre la mutilación genital infantil

(a) de todas las peliculas de terror perturbadoras/juegos de terror y mi experiencia cercana a la muerte esta circuncisión son los peores 9 minutos de mi vida viendo esto no puedo creer que mis padres me hicieran esto...es obvio quienes son los criminales, cierto es que los padres firman un consentimiento, despierten padres no nos gusta que abusen de nosotros. los doctores americanos y los internos inexpertos y cualquiera que participe en este abuso merecen castigo y cadena perpetua, ustedes son la escoria de la tierra

(b) Actualmente estoy embarazada de mi primer niño y mi marido y yo hemos estado hablando de ello yo estaba de acuerdo (apenas sabía lo que era) pero después de ver esto ¡Olvídalo! ¡No hay una maldita manera de que me siente allí y vea lo que le hacen a mi hijo! Prefiero morir a que le pase eso, entiendo los pros y los contras pero no podría vivir conmigo misma si él pasara por eso. La circuncisión es básicamente como cortarse un pecho para prevenir el cáncer de mama.

(c) Ahora, todos los que están en contra de la MGF, que es horrible y está terriblemente mal, piensen en esto. Esto se hace a los bebés varones y nadie les ha pedido su opinión al respecto y es un ritual duradero, brutal y bárbaro. No importa en qué sexo se realice, es igual de horrible en ambos.

(d) Que alguien me diga, por favor, ¿cuál maldito propósito de hacer esto? ¿Porque un judío lo hiciera hace un par de miles de años, sigue estando bien mutilar el pene de un bebé? Empalar se solía hacer hace unos cientos de años, pero ya no nos ves haciéndolo. Nunca voy a circuncidar a mi hijo, pase lo que pase. Esto me hizo llorar.

(e) Qué cosa tan terrible se le puede hacer a una persona. ¿Qué clase de sádico enfermo es este "doctor"? Si esto ocurriera en cualquier otro contexto, sería un acto flagrante de violación de objeto, agresión sexual, agresión y perversión. ¿Qué le pasa a la gente? No puedo soportar ver esto... Lástima haber vivido esto. Quien diga que esto no es mutilación es un monstruo

(f) ¿Cómo se le puede hacer esto a un niño? ¡Se me saltan las lágrimas viendo esto! Esto es una tortura... absolutamente terrible. Los genitales son hermosos tal y como son. NUNCA podría hacer pasar a mi hijo por esto. El prepucio no está hecho para ser extirpado.

Blessing mudras + 4 more

Baba

Blessing mudras 

Namaskar,

Human beings have been seeking a’nandam since their creation. Over the ages, so many rishis and munis have intuitively received various guidelines from Parama Purusa in their meditation. However, perfect knowledge only comes to humans when Parama Purusa comes in the form of Mahasambhuti and guides humanity. So we are fortunate that we have Baba’s teachings to move on the path of divinity. And, He has blessed us with two mudras – varabhaya mudra and janusparasha mudra – by which to meditate. And both have their special utility and value and propel humans along the path of bliss.
https://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/


Two special mudras

Indeed, it is Baba’s great blessing that He has graciously given two mudras for doing dhyana. And both have their special quality and margiis can use either one. The two mudras referred to here are: varabhaya mudra and janusparsha mudra. Those doing sahaja yoga – the standard six lessons of Ananda Marga sadhana – use varabhaya mudra when doing dhyana. 'Vara' means 'blessing', and 'abhaya' means 'fearlessness' - the blessing of fearlessness.

And those people who are suited to sadharana yoga, according to Baba’s recommended guidelines, will do their dhyana using janusparsha mudra. Specifically, ‘janu’ means ‘knee’ and ‘sparsh’ means ‘touch’. As we know, both these mudras are infused with Baba’s special grace and blessing. Yet from a practitioner’s standpoint, for some it is comparatively easier to visualize janusparsha mudra than varabhaya mudra. And for others, varabhaya mudra is more appropriate.

If any person is not adjusted well with sahaja yoga – for reasons such as age, busyness of schedule, or physical handicap etc, or if sahaja yoga is temporarily beyond their reach – then they can ask their acarya for sadharana yoga, in which case they will do dhyana using janusparsha mudra.

Ananda Marga philosophy states, "Sádhárańa Yoga: It is meant for all. Those having some more time at their disposal and having glandular defects shall learn Sahaja Yoga. Those affording still more time can take training in Visheśa Yoga." (1)


An excellent transition point

It is important to know however that in certain cases the various practices of sadharana yoga serve as a great transition point for transforming non-margiis into margiis. For example, in Baba’s system, if at the time of initiation one is overly busy in their job, or if they do not have a place to live, or if they are quite sick etc, then one can begin with sadharana yoga.
https://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/

In this materialistic era where scores of people are not habituated to a spiritual way of living, then it is only practical to think that many will first need the ways of sadharana yoga – in which case they can do their dhyana using janusparsha mudra. It is the standard system for the acarya to review the background of each of their diiksa bhaiis (initiated persons) and decide which system of meditation is best for them. That is the duty of the acarya.


Conclusion

The spiritual meaning of both these mudras is highly significant in the individual life of every sadhaka and also in every aspect of collective life. By this way people progress, by His grace.
https://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/

Ananda Marga Caryacarya states, “Utilizing the vibrations created for eternal time by Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji through januspharsha and varabhaya mudras, take yourself and the entire universe ahead along the path of welfare. Omn Shanti!” (2)

Namaskar,
at His lotus feet,
Ananda

Society is diverse

Animals come on this earth and are bound in their base propensities, just driven by instinct and the laws of nature. Beyond that they cannot do anything. Humans have come for something more, for something infinite: To get a’nandam, bliss. Without feeling drenched in that eternal bliss, human beings will never be satisfied. And that bliss cannot be gotten without attaining Parama Purusa – without getting Him. So in essence, knowingly or unknowingly, everyone wants Him; because all want bliss, or a’nandam.

We live in a colourful world: There are so many different types of people, each with their unique set of samskaras, each with their own mental make-up. Baba has given something for all: Na’ma mantra, sadharana yoga, sahaja yoga, kapalik sadhana, and vishesh yoga etc. Which one is higher and which one is lower, that is insignificant. Because all the lessons are important and success depends upon which sadhana is most suited to a particular individual, and Guru’s grace.
https://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/

We should always keep in mind that even with na’ma mantra meditation one can get the highest realisation, if earnestly practiced with bhakti and sincerity. The overarching idea is that we can expect innumerable types of people – of various mental standards – to approach Ananda Marga. Many of whom may be unable to follow 16 Points due to their own physical shortcomings, or life circumstances. Yet in each and every case, Baba has given a level of practice specially suited for them.

Various levels of Ananda Marga practices

As noted, there are various levels of our Ananda Marga yoga / sadhana system: There is na’ma mantra meditation, sadharana yoga sadhana, sahaja yoga, kapalik sadhana, and vishesha yoga, madhur sadhana etc. So when any new person approaches Ananda Marga, we are to evaluate and see which level of practice is most appropriate for them.
 
For instance, if a new person comes to us who is particularly obese and long-habituated to eating meat etc, then we are to guide that person towards sadharana yoga. Because they cannot do difficult asanas – or any asanas – and their body is not ready to follow 16 Points in full. In that case then, according to Baba’s system, they are to receive sadharana yoga meditation and start doing dharma sadhana. Sadharana yoga does not offer all the six lessons which comprise sahaja yoga, but rather offers specific lessons that are suitable to the practitioner.

In His guidelines to acaryas, Baba clearly outlines who shall receive sadharana yoga meditation: Aged or elderly persons, diseased persons, physically handicapped individuals, those with no place or time to do sadhana, those who work 24 / 7 in their job or service, those recommended by Baba for sadharana yoga. So if one is eating meat and cannot sit in padmasana or siddhasana or for any of the above reasons, then sadharana yoga is the perfect way for them to begin.
https://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/

And certainly – as that new person becomes more suited to a sentient way of living – we can prepare them for entry into the more involved practices of sahaja yoga, such as when their situation changes or when they regain their health etc. Here the point is that regardless of anyone’s background, Sadguru Baba has given a way for each and every person to enter into the tantric cult of Ananda Marga sadhana.

Microvita are radiated through these two mudrás

Ananda Marga philosophy states, "Suppose the Sadguru is saying something, and the deaf or dumb man wants to hear it but cannot. If one concentrates the mind on varábhaya mudrá, there will be the direct effect of positive microvita on the auricular or other nerve cells and also on the controlling cells, and it may be that all of a sudden he may get back the power of hearing. One should look towards these two mudrás and not to anything else. Microvita are radiated through these two mudrás. This is the inner secret."

Ananda Marga philosophy states, "This is supernatural, but not illogical. Certainly it is supernatural because it does not come within the scope of natural phenomena." (3)


Mudra used in Gurusakásha

And varabhaya mudra is an essential element of our daily practice of Guru sakash.

Another use of varabhaya mudra: Curing disease

When sadhakas are suffering from various kinds of diseases they are unable to do social service etc. And proper meditation has a distinct effect on one’s health. Just as eating sentient food positively affects your entire personality and helps keep the body healthy, similarly meditation helps in curing certain diseases. And when the disease is cured and the body is healthy one will be able to serve the society in a better way.
https://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/

Ananda Marga philosophy states, "If a person contracts a disease caused by negative microvita after initiation, does dhyána perfectly and follows certain food restrictions, the disease will be completely cured. Dhyána attracts many positive microvita. Negative microvita can only be controlled by positive microvita. The positive microvita eat the negative microvita and this is the reason why the disease is cured. For example, if a person is suffering from jaundice, a disease caused by negative microvita, and if dhyána is practised perfectly, the disease will be cured very quickly. In the case of cancer, say stomach cancer, certain food restrictions will have to be strictly followed. When pain starts in the stomach one should sit for dhyána, but just prior to this one should take some juice from a sweet tasting, not a sour tasting fruit. After performing dhyána, one should take another drink which is different from the first drink. The patient should also avoid any food which causes gas in the stomach, such as pappad, cauliflower, cabbage, turnip, etc." (4)

Ananda Marga philosophy states,"If a person contracts a disease caused by negative microvita before initiation and does dhyána sincerely after initiation, the disease will not spread but be contained. However, for different types of diseases one has to follow different food restrictions and practice dhyána at specific times." (5)

Your august presence

Note: Only those bhaktas who have a deep feeling of bhakti in their heart can understand this song in the depths of their core.

"Tumi esecho man je keŕe cho, bhuláye diyecho shatek jválá..." (Prabhat Samgiita #0200)

Purport:

My Parama Purusa, Baba, You have come to me, and by seeing Your unending charm I am so much captivated. My mind is no longer my own. You have stolen it as I cannot think of anything other than You. You made me forget countless burning pains and all sorts of suffering and trauma which I had undergone. Now I am floating in Your infinite bliss. All the 24 hours, in the panorama of ideation, varieties of loving thoughts and feelings about Your various liilas float in my mind. In the flow of Your conation, day and night, with heavenly melody You have woven a garland of songs.

Baba, due to Your august presence and spiritual touch, the flaming fire of the meteor and lightning have turned into cool, fragrant sandalwood paste. My life was like a burning desert. The thirst that I had due to the extreme heat has been satiated. It has lost its way under Your cool green shade. Who knows where it has gone - disappeared forever. It was Your exquisite mercy. Today all my suffering and torments turned into a basket of flower bouquets and garlands. It is Your grace. You are bliss personified. You transform my life from severe suffering to unending joy.

Now quietly looking within, and meditating and thinking / contemplating about You, this much I understood and accepted that You love me wholeheartedly. Your care has no parallel. Nobody has bestowed such compassion on me as You have…

Very unhealthy competition

Namaskar,

Ananda Marga ideology says, “You know there are different divisions in propensities." (1)

Above, a cigar ash competition is going on. For more on this, please see note 1.

Humans beings have so many propensities (i.e. mental occupations)—up to 1000 vrttis. And these can be broadly divided into four categories.
http://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/

Suffering is in the beginning and also in the end

#1 Kliśt́á vrtti (beginning suffering, end suffering): Those who choose to move on the path of kliśt́á vrtti engage in endeavours which are uncomfortable and painful from the very beginning up to the very end, and the end result is also bad.

Ananda Marga ideology says, “The propensities that become the cause of pain in the beginning and also in the end are called Kliśt́á. Suppose, for instance, someone is travelling without a ticket. There is a heavy rush in the train. Naturally he will have to undergo suffering and inconvenience. If the checking staff come, another misery befalls. So here the pain is in the beginning and also in the end. This action of his is Kliśt́á-vrtti.” (1)

Some squish themselves and battle the crowds to visit a holy land and then get trampled to death in a stampede. Likewise, suppose a thief was undergoing hardship walking in a hailstorm and then got arrested by the police. In both of these instances the beginning and end is bad—problematic. So these are related with kliśt́á vrtti.

Happy in beginning but suffering in end

#2 Akliśt́á Kliśt́á vrtti (beginning pleasure, end suffering): Those who choose to move on the path of akliśt́á kliśt́á vrtti, engage in actions which start out as pleasant and joyful, but yield very bad results. There are many activities and works that fall in this category.

For example, if one is eating rasagolla (sweets) in their house but then later on they suffer from constipation, gas, and bloating. That act started out as enjoyable but concluded as something painful. Also smoking and drinking etc come in this category. So these are related with akliśt́á kliśt́á vrtti.
http://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/

Same is the case with those who enjoy dancing and partying all night, and then have to suffer the ill effects of fatigue and nausea the next day. So these are related with akliśt́á kliśt́á vrtti.

Suffering in beginning but happy in end

#3 Kliśt́á Akliśt́á vrtti (beginning suffering, end pleasure): Those who choose to move on the path of kliśt́á akliśt́á vrtti, engage in actions which start out as uncomfortable or painful, but yield very positive and beneficial results.

For instance, eating bitter foods like neem leaves may not be a pleasant experience but the overall effect is very good as the blood, gums, liver, and kidneys are greatly benefited. Similarly, studying hard for an examination is not easy and may likely involve discomfort and even suffering. But in the end, getting success in the exam is a very positive outcome. So these are related with kliśt́á akliśt́á vrtti.

Happy in beginning & bliss in end

#4 Akliśt́á vrtti (beginning pleasure, end pleasure): Those who choose to move on the path of akliśt́á vrtti engage in actions which are blissful right from the start, and yield blissful results. Which endeavour is like that? Sadhana or intuitional practice. Sadhana with bhakti is very soothing and filled with anandam. It starts blissfully, continues blissfully, and concludes blissfully; and the final outcome is also blissful. So these are related with akliśt́á vrtti.
http://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/

Most often, human beings involve in such types of works and hobbies which fall in the first three groups. And due to this they suffer a lot of pain in their life.  But those who are fortunate utilize their human potentiality to pursue dharmic engagements that fall in this fourth category. They learn sadhana, practice it, and see everything as Brahma. By that way, they always do good things and make their lives happy through spiritual practice. If worldly works are done while ensconced in brahmacarya, then that makes even worldly works blissful. But the main thing is to keep a sadhana oriented life—that is the best utilization.


Conclusion

For Parama Purusa everything is blissful beginning to end. Humans have all four of these types of vrttis or mental occupations. But Parama Purusa only has one. For Him everything is blissful from beginning to end. If one does sadhana, that comes in the category of aklista vrtti because the beginning, middle and end—everything is blissful. By doing sadhana life becomes full of anandam.

In Him,
Dharmadeva

Note 1: About the above photo

The person in the above photo falls in the first category—kliśt́á.  That man chose to involve in a cigar smoking competition. A contestant participates in the longest ash competition during the annual cigar festival in Havana, so he is forced to inhale a lot of smoke. Due to the pressure of this competition, contestants push the limits. This man is uncomfortable smoking that cigar, but he is doing it in hopes of getting victory. The goal is to generate the longest ash in the shortest time, without letting the ash break and fall down. But the end result of such a competition is lung cancer. So that activity is problematic from beginning to end. This is the worst category. So many human engagements fall in this category, unfortunately.
http://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/

Those who misuse their bodies in the actions of categories 1-3, they directly degenerate to animal life after their demise. No one should misuse their body by work which is illustrated in these first three categories.

Insight into dreams

Ananda Marga philosophy states, “I said a little while ago that dreaming means thinking or recollecting during sleep. Now the first question that arises is this: Why do people not always think or recollect during sleep? During the wakeful state, people are always thinking or recollecting. Even when people meditate in the wakeful state, they are thinking of, or recollecting, Supreme Consciousness. In the waking state, the mind never remains inactive. Then why does it not always dream during sleep? The answer is, the sleeping state means a state of rest for the mind. But if, before or at the time of sleep, one is tormented with deep sorrow, or becomes overjoyed with extreme happiness, or is afflicted with a serious disease, or is brooding over imaginary pains and pleasures – then during sleep if the gases in the body rise and create vibrations in the nerve cells, one starts thinking and recollecting. That is why people do not always dream during every sleep. (1)

Surgery is an ancient practice

Ananda Marga philosophy says, "There is a very interesting example of surgery. The cousin of Krsna (the son of the sister of Lord Krsna's father) was Jarasandha, the king of Magadha, with his capital at Rajgir. At the time of the birth of Jarasandha, the child bad to be cut out of the womb. People saw this child and threw it in the cremation ground. Then there came a very famous non-Aryan (raksasii) lady doctor known as Jara. She stitched the child in a proper surgical operation and saved it. Since the lady Jara joined (sandhi) the pieces of the child's body, the name of the child became Jarasandha. This proves that the people were well acquainted with surgery." (1)

To please Parama Puruśa the real devotion

Original Ananda Vanii states: "Knowing oneself is the real knowledge; serving all with the ideation of Náráyańa, the real action, and the vow to please Parama Puruśa the real devotion." (Ananda Vanii #25)

Note: Sadguru Baba has assigned a number to all His original and true Ananda Vaniis. In contrast, Fake Ananda Vaniis do not have any number. By this simple formula, one can easily recognise which is a true Ananda Vanii and which is fake. For the upcoming occasion of January 1st 2017, all Ananda Marga units should use one of Baba’s original and true Ananda Vaniis, not a fake one. By this way, one will surely get His blessing.
