Punto raro sobre el namaskar

Baba

Punto raro sobre el namaskar

Nota: Esta carta es un recordatorio sobre la gran importancia de una de nuestras prácticas más fundamentales. No es un punto pequeño, ya que representa toda nuestra perspectiva de la vida.

Namaskar,

En nuestra Ananda Marga, toda nuestra perspectiva y nuestra vida están basadas espiritualmente, enfocadas completamente en Parama Purusa, girando solo alrededor de Él. Todos y cada uno de nuestros pensamientos, palabras y acciones están dirigidos hacia Él. Desde la mañana hasta la noche, nuestra existencia se centra en la Entidad Divina: cuando despertamos, meditamos en Él; cuando servimos a otros o alimentamos a un mendigo, sentimos que lo estamos sirviendo o alimentando; cuando recibimos algo de alguien, sentimos que hemos recibido un regalo de Parama Purusa.

Namaskar: no saludando a los humanos

Nuestro saludo namaskar debe hacerse a todos. No tiene nada que ver con la antigüedad, la estatura social, el puesto, la edad o cualquier otro factor relativo. Cuando hacemos nuestro namaskar mudra no nos inclinamos ante ningún individuo per se. Más bien, estamos rindiendo un saludo a la presencia de lo Divino dentro de esa persona.

En un resumen en español de Caryacarya - 1, Methods of Salutation, Baba nos dice: Namaska'ra ... Se puede hacer a todos independientemente de su edad, porque este modo de saludo se usa con la idea de que todos son la manifestación del Ser Supremo. (resumen en español) 

Por lo tanto, una parte integral de nuestra práctica del namaskar es ver lo Divino dentro de todo. Esa es la esencia de hacer namaskar. Por esa razón, incluso las personas mayores de la sociedad deberían hacer namaskar a los bebés pequeños, y los trabajadores de nivel "superior" deberían hacer namaskar a las personas recién iniciadas. Y los compañeros de clase deberían hacerse namaskar entre ellos.

Así que namaskar debe ser realizado por todos y por todos. No debe haber ninguna timidez o sentimiento de superioridad que inhiba este proceso. La dulce idea es que al hacer namaskar estamos honrando la presencia del Supremo dentro de ese individuo. Por lo tanto, siempre deberíamos estar dispuestos a hacerle namaskar a cualquiera.

Cuando hablamos con nuestros hijos, sentimos que Parama Purusa se está expresando en la forma de estos niños, es decir, que está frente a nosotros en la forma de estos niños y niñas. De esta manera hermosa pasa el día, instalado en Su pensamiento e ideación.

Nuestro saludo namaskar es parte integral de este flujo: es una de nuestras actividades diarias relacionadas totalmente con Parama Purusa. Como todos sabemos, cuando hacemos namaskar no estamos saludando a ningún individuo en particular como Ram, Shyam, Tom, Dick o Harry, sino reconociendo la presencia de la Conciencia Suprema infinita dentro de esa persona.


¿Por qué ser el primero en hacer namaskar?

Una al lado de la otra, las pautas de Baba son que debemos ser los primeros en hacer namaskar.

En un resumen en español de Ananda Marga Ideology and Way of Life - 11, Taking the Opposite Stance in Battle, Baba dice: Siempre debes hacer un esfuerzo por hacer namaskar a los demás primero. (resumen en español)

Así que estas son dos de las enseñanzas fundamentales de Baba sobre Namaskar: (a) Que se debe hacer a todos, y (b) que uno debe ser entusiasta y hacer namaskar primero. Estos son dos aspectos fundamentales de nuestra práctica namaskar. La razón es que namaskar es un reconocimiento o saludo a Parama Purusa en la forma de ese ser humano. No es el acto de inclinarse ante un individuo en particular. Así que deberíamos hacer namaskar a todo el mundo, primero.

Conclusión

Según Baba, hay numerosos beneficios de hacer siempre namaskar primero. Y Baba además nos guía en que Él siempre hace namaskar primero para enseñar a otros.

En un resumen en español de Ananda Marga Ideology and Way of Life - 11, Taking the Opposite Stance in Battle, Baba nos dice: Como seres humanos ideales, no debes esperar a hacer namaskar después de que otro te haya saludado: debes aprovechar la primera oportunidad para saludar a los demás. Cuando alguien te saluda ... no te conviertes en un ser humano ideal". Lo ideal es que alguien aproveche la primera oportunidad para saludar a los demás. la gente viene a mí durante el contacto personal, yo el saludo primero, ya sea que me saluden o no.) Al honrar a los demás, no serás menospreciado, más bien realzarás tu prestigio. (resumen en español)

Por la pauta anterior de Baba podemos entender que aquellos que hacen namaskar primero son mejores que aquellos que esperan hacer namaskar en respuesta. Desafortunadamente, aquellos que desconocen esto no hacen namaskar primero, piensan que deberían esperar al namaskar. Pero de esta manera simplemente se engañan a sí mismos y se privan de convertirse en seres humanos ideales.

Namaskar,
en Él,
Karuna'karan

Baba

Healing oneself

 
Namaskar,
 
The general rule is that most people never get any proper teachings in their life.
 
Ananda Marga ideology says, "Even after getting human life, only a few get the opportunity to listen to dharmika discourses." (1)
 
As Ananda Margiis we have been blessed with the special grace of Baba as He has bestowed upon us all the teachings of dharma and encapsulated them in His divine gift of Sixteen Points.
https://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/


Frictional heat generated & adverse effect
 
Here following is one of His dharmic guidelines of the Sixteen Points:
 
Ananda Marga Caryacarya states, "Bathe according to the prescribed system." (2)
 
We all know that bathing is an important aspect of our spiritual life. In particular, proper bath rejuvenates and revitalises one's entire existence. It achieves this primarily by both cleaning and cooling the body. Here are some other specifics about our practice of bathing.
 
Ananda Marga Caryacarya states, "When taking a bath, all parts of the body, in particular the armpits and groin, should be cleaned properly. Soap, oil, and comb should be used every day. The body hair should never be cut, especially in the armpit and pubic region." (3)
 
In our daily routine, invariably we move our arms and legs to perform various tasks. And by this movement, frictional heat gets generated - especially at the joints. Yet after puberty the human body cannot remain healthy when excess heat is constantly present in those areas. To combat this, Parama Purusa has provided a very good system: During puberty hair grows in those joint areas and that helps to dissipate the frictional heat, allowing the body to naturally cool itself. And this is especially beneficial for the glands. The question may then arise that if joint hair is so important then why is it that babies and children do not have hair on their joints also - after all they are generally born with hair on their head.
 
The reason is that in a child's body the sex glands are not yet developed, and that includes their glandular system as well. So for them when their joint areas invariably become heated from their various activities then it does not have a negative effect on their glands - as those glands have yet to be developed. Thus children have no real need for hair in their joint areas. But for teenagers and adults it is extremely important.
https://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/


Ignorant remove their joint hair
 
Parama Purusa does everything in His own special way, according to the proper timing. For example, when babies are born they do not have teeth. And that is best because in those early years all their nutrition comes by sucking the mother's milk. And if infants had teeth it would adversely affect that natural process. But later on when the time comes for those same young children to start eating solid food then those children develop teeth. So Parama Purusa arranges everything at the proper time.
 
In the same way joint hair grows on the human body exactly when it is needed - not too early and not too late, just at the perfect time.
 
Ananda Marga Yogic Treatments states, "Due to the quick development of physical energy at this age, nature has provided necessary hair at the joints of the body to keep the body heat balanced and, because of the possibility of rubbing, to keep the skin healthy. So when people remove this hair owing to lack of proper knowledge, they harm themselves both physically and mentally." (4)


Removal of pubic hair weakens sex gland
 
For teenagers and adults, joint hair satisfies a particular need and special function within the body system; because that hair is needed for the all-around balance and health of the body. But some people - in their ignorance - cut the hair of the joints thereby inviting various diseases which result due to the improper functioning of the glands. And, in addition, when the glands get overheated the sex vritti becomes active - and often dominant.
https://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/
 
For all these reasons, Baba has given our bathing system. By this way, the body is washed and cleaned in the proper way on a daily basis. And by applying oil and combing the joint hair regularly after bathing, the glands will function properly and the body will maintain optimal health. So part and parcel of our bathing and cleaning process is paying proper attention to the joint hair.


System for taking bath
 
Here following is Baba's basic guideline for bathing.
 
Ananda Marga Caryacarya says, "First pour water on the navel. Then wet the region below the navel by splashing water from the front. Then pour water from behind. Thereafter pour water on the crown of the head in such a way that it trickles down over the backbone. Then bathe all over." (5)
 
Then of course Baba has also given other points such as (a) using a proper cleansing agent, (b) using a scrubber, (c) using cool or cold water, (d) bathing in a seated or squatting position, (e) not using hot water, and (f) not using artificially scented soaps etc.
 
Afterwards we are to recite our "Pitr Purus'ebhyo namah" mantra along with the proper mudra(s).
 
Ananda Marga philosophy states, "Joint hair grows near the lymphatic glands in the armpits and leg joints. If this hair is removed, then the lymphatic glands tend to overheat, causing over-secretion, and this in turn decreases the function of the thyroid and parathyroid glands. There is an inverse relation between the lymphatic glands and the thyroid and parathyroid glands: if one is more active then the other is less developed and it becomes weak. For this reason, the joint hair should not be removed." (6)


Conclusion
 
The overall health of the human body and mind is dependent upon bathing according to the prescribed system, which includes proper care of the joint hair. So every sadhaka should be vigilant on these points as they are important for daily living and making progress on the path of sadhana.

Namaskar,

The lymph & brain
 
Ananda Marga philosophy states, "Lymph is a hormone. There are many lymphatic glands in the body which manufacture lymph. It is the initial hormone, and other glands use lymph to manufacture their respective hormones. Hormones are created when lymph comes in contact with an activated gland. The lymphatic glands supply the raw material to the glands, and lymph is the raw material for the hormones manufactured by the different glands." (7)
 
Ananda Marga philosophy states, "There are so many glands and sub-glands in the human body which are dependent upon lymph, so lymph is an important constituent of the body." (8)
 
Ananda Marga philosophy guides us, "The function of the lymph is to purify the blood and maintain beauty and glory of the body; and by getting into the glands it enables proper secretion of hormones. For the proper development of innate qualities adequate amount of lymph is necessary. The lymph rises up and gets into the brain thus strengthening it." (9)
 
Ananda Marga philosophy states, "Lymph goes to the brain and provides food for the nerve cells in the cranium." (10)
 
Ananda Marga philosophy states, "If the testes are properly-active [highly active] and there is proper-secretion [high secretion] of hormones, a youth develops the spirit of rationality. The pubic hair grows due to the activity of the testes. This is the physical effect. The development of rationality is the psychic effect. The nervous system will also be affected. If not hindered by the natural flow of the lymphatic glands, proper-secretion [high secretion] leads to the development of hair in the arm pits at the age of fifteen to seventeen in hot countries and seventeen to eighteen in cold countries. Along with this the feeling of rationality grows. For example, a boy may say, “No, father, do not ask me to do that. It is not good.”" (11)

Lymphatic glands in armpits & leg joints
 
Caryacarya states, "Never cut the hair of the joints of the body." (12)
 
Caryacarya states, "Do not cut the hair of the joints of the body." (13)
 
Ananda Marga philosophy states, "In human beings the lymphatic glands are located at the joints of the arms and of the legs, and also at various other places. ... When the lymphatic glands in the armpits and leg joints are activated, hairs start to grow in those parts of the human body. If you find an absence of hair, it indicates that the lymphatic glands are underdeveloped, and that the individual will have less jumping capacity." (14)

== Section 2: Prabhat Samgiita ==

In this midnight

Prabhat Samgiita Intro: This song expresses the intimate link between the bhakta and God. If anyone is doing sadhana and they do not have any relation with Parama Purusa it means their sadhana is very low. There are various relations. And having some sort of relation is called mysticism. 

Ananda Marga ideology states, “Mysticism is the never-ending endeavour to find out the link between the finite and the infinite.” (1)

Why is it never-ending? Those who are not bhaktas do not have any relation with the Supreme. Then when one first develops a relation with Him it is distant. When the relationship matures then it becomes intimate. So the relation is always changing, ever-evolving. It culminates only when one loses their I-feeling and merges in Parama Purusa. 

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

"Ke go, gán geye jáy shonáte ámáy, ei aveláy…” (Prabhat Samgiita #1048)

Purport: 

O’ who is that Charming Entity who goes on singing for me in this midnight, untimely hour - tantrika hours. Who is that who goes on playing the flute for me, making that sweet, melodic, heart-touching music filled with the deep pain of yearning. It looks like He is someone whom I have seen. His call is filled with supreme love and affection. His flute pulls my heart towards the spiritual realm. When I hear His music I lose myself in bliss. My mind does not remain still; it rushes towards Him. What a liila of His. 

From some distant land He is calling me in this late hour. Due to prema for me, He forgot about the time and could not consider what others will think by hearing this heart-wrenching melody in these very late hours. I could not pay heed to His call so with His desperate feelings and broken heart, He is conveying His immense kindness towards me. What a painful sound emanates from His flute. Who is that Charming Entity who goes on singing for me at this odd time.

Long back, on one fine morning we came in contact. Gradually that first glimpse flourished into full-blown prema and bhakti. I fell in love with Him. He is that Parama Purusa who became my most dear. We can't live without each other. The place and moment where we first met became a thing of the past. But the bond of our love only grew in leaps and bounds. And He goes on singing for me in these late tantrika hours after midnight. By His grace, now I am floating endlessly in His love in some wonderland of divinity. 

In my life there is nothing - only His prema...

Note For Prabhat Samgiita #1048

Tantrika hours: This is the period from midnight to 3am.

Prevent Dogma: Cite AM teachings properly

Namaskar,

Here is a guideline for citing quotes from Baba’s books and the benefits are two-fold: (a) It will be easier to cross-check and confirm those quotes, and (b) it will prevent the manufacturing and circulation of fake quotes.


Page # also needed for non-English publications

#1: When citing any quote from Sadguru Baba, then the (a) book title, (b) name of the chapter, and (c) page number must be given. So readers can quickly search and confirm the veracity of the quote.

#2: For quotes that are in the English Electronic edition of Baba’s books it is completely different - the chapter name is enough.


Who is the responsible party

#3: The onus lies on the person who circulates the quote. Initially they should provide all the information, and it is their duty to provide further clarification to those readers who request it.


Paving the way for dogma in the name of Baba

#4: Remember, the first step of the ruination of Baba’s teachings occurs when people spread quotes in the name of Baba without fully citing the source of that quote. If this type of loose approach continues then every Tom, Dick, and Harry will start writing their own mental feeling and stick Baba's name as the signature.

#5: By this way, in the name of Baba, little by little, all those dogmas which are condemned by Ananda Marga philosophy like idol worship, caste marriage, and gay marriage will slowly gain traction. Step by step, those bogus quotes will state that these dogmas are very good and approved by Baba. Until ultimately we will wake up one fine morning and read: “Meat-eating is very good for Ananda Margiis - Shrii Shrii Anandamurti.”

#6: Today this may look or sound outlandish but history proves that this is the way distortion happens. For instance, if you pick up Lord Krsna’s teachings you will find that the caste system is appreciated. It was only when Baba clarified this matter that it became clear that Lord Krsna did not appreciate the caste system. Rather Lord Krsna opposed the caste system but devious followers put their dogmatic views in Lord Krsna’s name.

#7: The aforementioned parameters will help greatly in protecting and safeguarding the authenticity of Sadguru Baba’s teachings.


Conclusion

Distributing quotes without a complete and proper citation or reference is a very negative trend. It opens the door for false lines to get printed in Baba's name. And It paves the way for the adulteration of Sadguru Baba's teachings. History bears testimony how the doctrines of various social thinkers, spiritual leaders, and Mahasambhutis have been polluted and destroyed in this way. We should not let this happen with Sadguru Baba’s teachings as well.

In Him,
Advatiiya

== Section: Important Teaching ==

When do bad reactions begin

Ananda Marga ideology guides us, “Sometimes it may happen that a man was a degenerated man. When he was a bad man, he was eating, drinking, and making merry, but as soon as he starts sádhaná, he is to face so many obstacles, so many hardships. He has become good, but be has to undergo so many troubles, so many problems. What is this? Why? Do you follow what I said? Why? The reason is that the pendulum moves. When it starts coming in the opposite side when its upward movement ends and the downward movement starts. The moment he becomes a good boy, becomes a sádhaka, the reaction of his bad actions starts.” (1)

Note: Avidya maya does not harass you for no reason at all. Avidya maya applies the arsenal from the collection of your previously accumulated negative samskaras, which have yet to be requited. Suppose you did some sin or wrongdoing in the past and never faced the reaction of that bad action. In that case, that samskara is still part of the arsenal of avidya maya. And you will have to face that reaction. But in spite of such retaliation if you continue doing your sadhana then avidya maya will walk away and will not bother you anymore due to your sincerity in sadhana.

Relation between dog & fox

Ananda Marga philosophy states, “The Alsatian dogs are close relatives of foxes.”

“Although a fox belongs to the dog family, its relation with the dog is very remote. In spite of some similarity between a dog and a jackal in appearance, there is a wide gulf of difference in their natures.”

“The dog has been a companion of human beings since ancient times. History tells us that dogs have been of use and continue to be of use to people in different ways in their prosperity as well as in their adversity. In the scriptures, a dog has sometimes been shown respect by presenting it as a symbol of dharma. Of course, there is no dearth of people who are opposed to dogs. In northern India some people say: “Only one who is a dog himself maintains a dog.”” (1)

Cómo se hicieron los libros de AM

 Baba

Cómo se hicieron los libros de AM en la década de 1950

Namaskar,

Haciendo un libro con la ayuda de notas escritas a mano: Sadguru Baba fundó AMPS en 1955 y comenzó a impartir discursos DMC y GD ese mismo año en hindi. En esos días, AMPS no tenía los medios financieros para comprar dispositivos de grabación, por lo que AMPS se basó en los tomadores de notas en esos primeros días. 

Ciertos margiis designados se sentaban en la primera fila y anotaban Sus discursos DMC. Después de que Baba completara Su discurso, los que tomaban notas de habla bengalí y de habla hindi se reunían, revisaban y cotejaban sus notas, y formaban una versión coherente para presentársela a Baba. Desafortunadamente, no pudieron hacer el trabajo correctamente, por lo que Baba luego reformularía el discurso en bengalí y agregaría más puntos para que el tema fuera preciso y completo. Algunos de esos primeros libros de Subhasita Samgraha se hicieron con este método. Sin embargo, esto resultó ser un proceso que consumía mucho tiempo, y Baba tenía numerosos proyectos en marcha y no tenía margen para dedicar horas y horas a este laborioso enfoque de la publicación de los libros.

Resumen: En los primeros días de AMPS, antes de que tuviéramos acceso a los dispositivos de grabación, Baba anotó los discursos, los volvió a revisar y repitió, y finalmente los imprimió.

Otra cosa a tener en cuenta, desafortunadamente en esa era antes de las grabaciones de carrete a carrete, solo se documentaron los discursos DMC de Baba. Esos sadhakas pensaban que solo los discursos del DMC eran muy importantes. Como resultado, todas esas charlas e historias dhármicas contadas durante Sus caminatas de campo no fueron documentadas, y muchos de Sus darshans generales no fueron documentados.

Resumen: Solo se documentaron los discursos de DMC en esos días, no los darshans de Baba, las caminatas de campo, etc.

Cómo se hicieron los libros AM en la década de 1960

Hacer un libro con la ayuda de una grabadora de carrete a carrete: Baba creó la presión necesaria y AMPS compró una máquina de grabación de carrete a carrete. A partir de ese momento, Baba puso fin al sistema de verificación de notas y redicción de Sus discursos, y en su lugar dio la orden de que Publicaciones hiciera un libro adecuado utilizando esas grabaciones de carrete a carrete. Se suponía que debían ser extremadamente meticulosos al verificar y confirmar el texto con el discurso grabado en esas cintas de carrete a carrete. En verdad, los discursos impresos para las ediciones en hindi, bengalí e inglés se hicieron transcribiendo esas cintas de carrete a carrete. Baba no tuvo tiempo de revisar esos libros. El único problema fue que los encargados no revisaron y verificaron repetidamente las grabaciones de audio. El resultado final fue que esos libros de AMPS estaban llenos de numerosos errores. De hecho, cuando los encargados imprimieron los libros cometieron todo tipo de errores y Baba no tuvo tiempo de revisar su trabajo. Por lo tanto, si se grababa un discurso, no se hacía ninguna revisión, solo era responsabilidad del Departamento de Publicaciones transcribirlo e imprimirlo. Sin embargo, durante todo ese tiempo, esos encargados le estaban dando el informe falso a Baba de que los libros se habían hecho correctamente. Al final, esos libros cargados de errores se vendieron a margiis.
https://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/

Gopal Chattopadhyaya

Vista en general: una vez que aparecieron las cintas de carrete-a-carrete, Baba detuvo el lento proceso de chequear las notas de los discursos, y eso se volvió la norma para imprimir los discursos transcribiendolos directamente desde las cintas"


Historia: cómo se hicieron los libros de AM después de 1977

Período posterior a la cárcel: De hecho, en 1978 los casetes de audio se habían puesto de moda, por lo que los encargados ya no tenían que depender de las viejas máquinas de carrete a carrete. A pesar de la conveniencia de los nuevos casetes, el trabajo de grabación todavía no se hacía de manera consistente. Luego, el 14 de octubre de 1978, Baba expresó su ira fingida y exigió ver las grabaciones de audio de esos 71 discursos generales de darshan de las semanas anteriores. Los Dadas presentaron 35 audios grabados, pero no tuvieron respuesta para unos 36 discursos que no habían podido grabar, y solo pudieron quedarse allí en su propia vergüenza. Baba dijo que no daría más discursos hasta que recopilaran las notas del discurso de esos asistentes. (Algunos de ellos son del 5 al 9 de agosto, 28 al 30 de 1978 y del 21 al 26 de septiembre de 1978). El deseo de Baba era hacer libros adecuados usando esas cintas de audio. En última instancia, esto dio lugar a la serie Ananda Vacanamrtam, que es una colección de los discursos generales de darshan de Baba. Por la presión de Baba, la grabación de los discursos de Baba se convirtió en una rutina. La orden permanente de Baba era hacer libros adecuados usando esas cintas de audio. Debido a Su agenda extremadamente ocupada, Baba no tuvo tiempo para revisar esas publicaciones. Simplemente, el trabajo de Publicaciones era imprimirlos en forma de libro comprobando una y otra vez los casetes. Sin embargo, durante todo ese tiempo, esos encargados le estaban dando el informe falso a Baba de que los libros se habían hecho correctamente. Al final, esos libros cargados de errores se vendieron a margiis.

Gopal Chattopadhyaya

Resumen: La serie Ananda Vacanamrtam comenzó en 1978, pero inicialmente los encargados no fueron sinceros al registrar esos discursos. Por esta razón, Baba los señaló fuertemente y les hizo prometer que grabarían. El objetivo era que esos discursos se transcribieran e imprimieran, luego de compararlos y verificarlos meticulosamente con las cintas de audio. Sin embargo, los encargados no se ocuparon de esto adecuadamente; por lo tanto, los libros cargados de errores se vendieron a margiis.

Special Discourse on VSS

Baba

== Special Discourse on VSS ==

The following discourse - "The Four Types of Service" - was delivered around the time when Baba created VSS. The actual date of the discourse in not known; we do know that it was a general darshan originally given in Hindi by Baba in Patna. To date, this discourse has never been printed or published - not in any language. Nor has it been officially translated from the original Hindi. We look forward to presenting an English translation soon. In this unique discourse, Baba discusses various aspects of VSS. So it is highly relevant to the posting, "Baba Story: VSS Related." - Eds


इसके पहले कई बार कहा गया था कि—मनुष्य एक ही आधार में—विप्र, क्षत्रिय, वैश्य, और शूद्र बनेंगे | जैसे जनसेवा में सबसे सर्वश्रेष्ठ है विप्रोचित सेवा अर्थात्‌ धर्म का प्रचार—मनुष्य में सद्बुद्धि को जगाना |
किन्तु यह जो मनुष्य की साधुता है, इसकी रक्षा के लिए, ऊपर में एक कड़ा, आवरण की ज़रूरत होती है | मान लो बहुत-से स्कूल, college, सब बना लिए हो, factories बना लिए हो, dams बना लिए हो; मगर उन सबों की सुरक्षा का भी तो प्रबन्ध करना है | मैंने कहा था कि—अगर कछुआ के पीठ पर कड़ा आवरण नहीं रहता, अगर बेल पर कड़ा आवरण नहीं रहता; तो कौआ उन्हें खा ही लेता | तो तुम्हारी साधुता तुम्हारी विद्वत्ता, तुम्हारी साधकता की रक्षा के लिए, तुम में क्षत्रियता भी रहनी चाहिए |

["बाबा, बाबा, बाबा !"]

समाज की रक्षा, माँ-बहनों के सम्मान की रक्षा, हर तरह की रक्षा के लिए; देश की सुरक्षा, बाहरी हमला से समाज को राष्ट्र को बचाने के लिए—तुम्हें क्षात्र-शक्ति का अनुशीलन करना है | इसमें थोड़ी-सी भी ढिलाई नहीं होनी चाहिए | जो आत्मरक्षा का प्रबन्ध नहीं करते हैं, उनकी तरक्की नहीं हो सकती है | प्राचीन काल में लोग कहते थे कि—”योगी लोग, मुनि लोग सुशासित राज्य में वास करेंगे; जहाँ राज्य मज़बूत है, राजा मज़बूत है |” वह तो राज-तन्त्र का युग था इसलिए “राजा मज़बूत है”; आज के युग में कहेंगे—जहाँ government मज़बूत है | और नागरिकों को इसलिए government को भी मज़बूत बनाने के लिए, सुरक्षा के लिए, प्रबन्ध करना चाहिए | बाहर से हमला होने से फ़ौजी भाइयों को भी help करना पड़ेगा; देश की सुरक्षा के लिए | इसलिए क्षात्र-शक्ति की आवश्यकता है | उधर ढिलाई नहीं हो |

तो, स्थाई सेवा है विप्रोचित सेवा | मगर उस सेवा को help करनेवाली है क्या ? क्षात्रशक्ति | अच्छा, मनुष्य के लिए अन्न-वस्त्र की समस्या है और समाज में तरह-तरह की समस्याएँ हैं, उन समस्याओं के समाधान के लिए, socio-economic structure को मज़बूत बनाना है | यह जो socio-economic structure को मज़बूत बनाने की चेष्टा, मज़बूत बनाने का प्रयास वही है—वैश्योचित सेवा | जो मनुष्य भूखे हैं मर रहे हैं उस वक्त उनको तो तुम दर्शन नहीं समझाओगे; उनको खाना दोगे, कपड़ा दोगे, दवा दोगे | वहाँ—वैश्योचित सेवा | कहीं निर्बल पर सबल जुर्म कर रहा है, वहाँ तो निर्बल को तुम तो दार्शनिक तत्त्व नहीं सुनाओगे; खाना भी नहीं दोगे; उसकी रक्षा के लिए प्रबन्ध करोगे |

विप्रोचित है स्थाई सेवा | मगर विप्रोचित सेवा में मदद करनेवाली सेवा है—क्षत्रियोचित सेवा, वैश्योचित सेवा |जिनके पास मान लो बुद्धि नहीं है, विप्रोचित सेवा नहीं कर सकेंगे; शक्ति नहीं है क्षत्रियोचित सेवा नहीं कर सकेंगे; पैसा नहीं है वैश्योचित सेवा नहीं कर सकेंगे; मगर बुद्धि अगर नहीं हो शरीर तो है, मेहनत के द्वारा समाज की सेवा वे कर सकेंगे—तो, वह हुआ शूद्रोचित सेवा | मगर सबसे अच्छा होता है कि—एक ही मनुष्य अगर एक ही आधार में चारों बनें | और उसी से समाज का ठोस काम होगा |

साधक एक ही आधार में विप्र क्षत्रिय वैश्य और शूद्र बनेंगे | इसमें कहीं भी कुछ भी, थोड़ी-सी भी ढिलाई नहीं हो | तुम लोग सतर्क हो जाओ, सजाग हो जाओ और हर तरह से तैयार रहो | ताकि तुम्हारी सेवा से समूचा समाज, तथा समूचा मानव समाज उपकृत हो |

और कल ही सन्ध्या मैंने कहा था कि— सब कोई परमात्मा के सन्तान हैं | और सब कोई जब परमात्मा के प्यारे हैं; तो, वे बुद्धिमान हों चाहे निर्बुद्धि हों; बलवान हों चाहे निर्बल हों; पण्डित हों चाहे मूर्ख हों—सब जब परमात्मा के प्यारे हैं; तो, सब कोई कुछ न कुछ अवश्य कर सकेंगे | कोई तुच्छ नहीं हैं, हीन नहीं हैं, नीच नहीं हैं |

तैयार हो जाओ, देखोगे बहुत कुछ कर सकोगे | तुम जब काम करना शुरू करोगे, जब कूद पड़ोगे तब देखोगे कि—तुम में कितनी शक्ति छिपी हुई थी |

कल्याणमस्तु

Brazil margiis & sin + 3 more

Baba 

Brazil margiis & sin

Namaskar,

After Agryabuddhya'nanda’s mahaprayan on Friday (20 Aug), his body was brought to a master unit and kept in the DC hall, and then they started doing akhanda kiirtana around his dead body. Sadly, this is all dogma so it is a veritable violation of dharma for those who participated in this dogma. 
https://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/

Sadguru Baba has given explicit instructions in Caryacarya about the handling and care of the body after their death. And there is absolutely no mention anywhere of dragging the body into the hall for kiirtana. This runs 100% contrary to His dharmic guidelines. So this particular unit in Brazil has committed a sin. 

In the below image, you can see margii dancing kiirtana around the casket / corpse of Dada Agryabuddhya'nanda. On the near side of the casket is a photo of Dada ji. This particular unit in Brazil has committed a sin.

Captivated my mind

"Práńer pradiip saunge niye,ke go ele ei dharáytomáy, bhulate náhi párá jáy..." (Prabhat Samgiita #2205)

Purport:

Carrying the lamp of love, who are You who has taken advent on this earth. With the reffulgence of infinite prema and affection, and the effulgence of warmth and compassion, You have completely captivated my mind; now I cannot think of anything else. Supreme One, it is impossible to forget You. Because of Your august arrival, with each and every expression, in every rhythm, You are exuding beauty and sweetness in all directions - everywhere. I can’t stop thinking of You.
 
By Your melodious voice and heartfelt attraction, with love You are drawing everyone near You by Your mamata', feeling all as Your own. You are vibrating in Your glory yet remaining hidden in the deep core of my mind – always. I ever remember You.
 
My Innermost, at some unknown time in the past You came and poured forth the pot of love, saturated and showered Your incomparable grace, and created a big stir - a revolution - in the world of ideas and thinking. And after that You hid Yourself from this world and were not visible to the crude eye. You came as Mahasambhuti and now You are ever-present with everyone as Taraka Brahma in their heart and mind.
 
Baba, You are love personified how can I forget You...


Note for Prabhat Samgiita #2205:

[1] Mamata': Mineness; In Sanskrit “mama” = mine, and the suffix ta’ = -ness; hence “mineness.” To have equal or more love for something / someone than one has for oneself. 

Ananda Marga ideology says, "What is the meaning of “mamatá”? Mama + tá = mamatá. Mama means “mine” and thus mamatá is the inner idea of being mine, the feeling that something is my own." (1)

Ananda Marga ideology guides us, "“Mamatá” means “mine-ness” – “Mama” means “one's own”, and the abstract noun derived from it is “mamatá” – meaning, thereby “mine-ness.”" (2)

For example, suppose you are suffering from a fever then naturally you will be concerned about your own health. You will try to cure yourself by going to the doctor and taking medicine etc. If you have mamata for someone else, then if they are sick with a fever you will have the same degree of care for their condition as your own. When one does sadhana then this sense of mamata grows and one ultimately has the feeling of mamata towards the entire created universe. Without sadhana, one’s sense of mamata will be extremely limited whereby one might only care about their own individual existence. So when the mind is extremely narrow one only has mamata for oneself. Those with a slightly broader mind have mamata towards their parents and family members. And as the circumference of mind expands one has mamata for other relatives and community members etc. However, it is only with sadhana that the periphery of mind can grow further and further wherein one’s sense of mamata includes all beings and expressions of this cosmos. Parama Purusa has mamata’ for each and every entity - this entire creation, all living and non-living expressions.

Inside scoop on avidya maya

Ananda Marga ideology states, "The avidyá force declares war on those whose desire or inclination is towards vidyá; this gives rise to a hostile tendency in the recesses of their minds, against which they have to struggle. At home the husband, wife or the other members of the family become dissatisfied with them, and create various obstacles. In the field of their activities the opportunities arise for depravity, meanness, bribes etc., and they have to maintain their self-control. The locusts of desires come swarming in to destroy the very bud of their sádhaná. So they must carefully avoid such temptations for their own safety. But those whose movement is truly towards vidyá, who are determined to follow the path of vidyá by sacrificing their all, will eventually become immune to all obstacles. No amount of scornful taunts or diatribes will be able to check their lightning speed. They will emerge victorious, weathering and defying all storms, and eventually stand firm and erect like the Himalayas; and the storms and squalls will rebound back in disappointment."

"When the Sádhaka or the spiritual aspirant will stand untrammelled and resolute, with the courage of his conviction, and self-confidence, all snags and dangers will gradually wither away – will timidly disappear from his path...Obstacles are the concomitants of sádhaná, struggling is a good sign. By these obstacles sádhakas can understand that their spiritual practice is on the right track. Spiritual philosophy comes into being only when sádhakas struggling with avidyá’s hindrances, vindicates their move towards Brahma after defeating the base propensities of avidyá by their own intellect and judgment." (1)
