Baba
Namaskar,
Ananda Marga philosophy states, "Shiva had only two arms, not four or six. Párvatii also had two arms." (1)
In His next guideline, Sadguru Baba again points out how Lord Shiva has 2 arms, not four or more arms.
Ananda Marga philosophy states, "No goddess having eight or ten arms can be the wife of Shiva: He had only two arms." (2)
So in His above two teachings, Sadguru Baba points out how Lord Shiva has 2 arms, not four arms.
Cowardice approach: surrendering to Hindu dogma
Here below is the photo from the Bhakta Samaj magazine. In this image, Lord Shiva is depicted as having four arms. Ananda Marga philosophy rejects this dogma and states that Lord Shiva had two arms. These Bhakta Samaj magazine editors are compromising our Ananda Marga ideals in order to appease Hindu fundamentalists. There is a Hindu dogma that Lord Shiva has four arms and the Bhakta Samaj editor has surrendered to this Hindu dogma and accepted this myth that Lord Shiva has four arms. It is unfortunate.
Making Lord Shiva as mythological figure: These Bhakta Samaj in-charges are cowards. Not only that they are committing terrible sin. The editor is taking Lord Shiva who is a veritable personality of history and turning Him into a figure of mythology.
Here below is the photo from the Bhakta Samaj magazine (Feb 2016, page 25).
Suffice to say here that the main aim of our Ananda Marga magazines
like Bhakta Samaj is to propagate the ideals of Ananda Marga. Hence
the Bhakta Samaj magazine should be fully dedicated to presenting
the ideals of Ananda Marga philosophy.
But on many occasions we see that the editors are doing the exact opposite. See this above photo from page 25 of the Bhakta Samaj magazine (Feb 2016) where they adopt the ways of the dogmatic Hindus and portray Lord Shiva as having four arms.
To appease Hindu dogmatic believers
The main reason they are doing this is is to appease Hindu dogmatic believers that - “We are aligned with you.” Yet by this way those Bhakta Samaj magazine editors are compromising with the teachings of Ananda Marga.
Sadly, when they have no courage to express this simple point that Lord Shiva did not have four arms, then how are they going to fight against more involved Hindus dogmas & exploitation.
in Him,
Ramsingh Yadav
What if this happened to you
If someone portrays you in a distorted manner - i.e. as having a severe birth defect of four arms - and furthermore presents you as a mythological figure for their own political gain, then surely you will not appreciate this.

Directly or indirectly supporting any sin is also a sin. That is why I request these below listed good margiis not to associate themselves with this magazine.

Two other dogmas related with this photo
In the above photo, Lord Shiva is shown wearing a crown. And just above the crown to the left is a crescent moon. Plus Lord Shiva is shown as having a third eye-ball on his forehead. And that eye opens and shuts vertically. These two points - i.e. the crescent moon and the third eye-ball - are dogmatic. Our Ananda Marga philosophy wholly rejects these two dogmas. Such things have nothing to do with the historical Shiva. About this we will talk in the future.
