AMPS: Big sit-in protest at Ranchi HQ
Namaskar,
Here in India a lot of things are going on to fix AMPS. Margiis are fired up and there is a sit-in starting 25 May 2017 at Baba Quarters (BQ) Ranchi. Hundreds of margiis from Ranchi and the surrounding communities are assembling in front of Ranchi headquarters (BQ) for the 3-week sit-in which will continue to 10 June 2017. This protest has been organised by Ac Mantracetanananda Avt.

Here are their basic demands:
You know that when where fight of dharma vs adharma happens - then sometimes adharma wins small battles, but ultimately dharma is always victorious. It is Baba's grace. This is the eternal truth which you have seen and will see in the future as well. This teaching our Guru Shrii Shrii Anandamurti has given on various occasions. Today, right-thinking and moralist margiis are requested to support the cause of righteousness.
Namaskar.
in Him,
Prakash Singh
(a) The rights which Sadguru Baba has granted to margiis have been curtailed. Those should be reinstated.
(b) The exploitation of the bhukti pradhan post should be stopped and the Fake BP manual should be discarded.
(c) Various other margii rights should be granted.
(d) Characterless central purodhas governing central AMPS should be removed from the post and punished for their sexual crimes.To quell their protest, Dada Rudrananda has lodged many civil and criminal cases against the organisers to terrorise them. Rudrananda has also alerted the police as he hired some street thugs to shoe the demonstrators away. In turn, Dada Mantracetanananda has requested the local administration and police to provide security to the participants.
(e) PP should not live under Rudrananda’s house arrest. He should allowed to have phone, communication, email, broadband, so he can communicate and talk with margiis and Wts as he likes, around the globe. Now when anyone goes to see or talk with PP then Rudrananda’s stooges are always there like shadow to monitor the situation. You know Rudrananda does not allow PP to have a phone.
(f) PP should have his own security forces so he can save his life in case of an emergency.
(g) In AMPS the judiciary branch should be separate from the executive branch in order to deliver justice. Now the two are mixed. It is just like the police being the judge.
(h) AMPS should run according to Caryacarya with the coordinated cooperation of family margiis. AMPS should not be runs as a plutocracy or oligarchy of Rudrananda.
(i) Didis dept should run independently. Now they are subservient to male Wts.
You know that when where fight of dharma vs adharma happens - then sometimes adharma wins small battles, but ultimately dharma is always victorious. It is Baba's grace. This is the eternal truth which you have seen and will see in the future as well. This teaching our Guru Shrii Shrii Anandamurti has given on various occasions. Today, right-thinking and moralist margiis are requested to support the cause of righteousness.
Namaskar.

Two types of drunkards
Baba says, "Once a few drunkards were sauntering along the road towards Krishnanagar railway station from Gori at midnight. Some policemen appeared all of a sudden. The drunkards, after deliberating how to escape, stood in a line along the drain beside the road. The policemen came up and shook them, asking, 'Why are you loitering here so late at night?' They replied, 'Why are you disturbing us, young men? We are innocent creatures. Are you blind? Can't you see, we are lampposts! We never meddle in anyone's affairs. Can't you see the lights shining above our heads?'-- The drunkards were holding torches over their heads." (1)
Note: 'Getting drunk' is of two types. One is getting physically drunk on alcohol due to the over-consumption of liquor - in which case the mind ceases to function properly. That is what has happened in the above story. And a similar type of drunkenness happens in psychic sphere. Abhiman is that type of psychic disease where one suffers from extreme vanity, i.e. where one is drunk on their own ego. This second type of drunkenness - i.e. psychic drunkenness - results in the same type of problem as in the above story: Where such drunkards lose their conscience or thinking capacity. That is why in our AM scripture, vanity (abhiman) is equated with sura'pa'n (drinking liquor).
Baba's teaching is very meaningful for everyone. We see that those suffering from vanity behave just like one drunkard. This is all due to their extreme superiority complex. Such types of people have created innumerable problems in this world. One should be careful about this in their individual and collective life.
Altogether such a state of mind is similar to drinking wine. That is why in this below shloka the term sura'pa'n (drinking liquor) has been used and Baba explains that vanity is like sura'pa'n.
Ananda Marga ideology says, "Abhima'na is no better than drinking wine" (3)

"Abhima'nam' sura'pa'nam'..."Ananda Marga ideology says, "Abhima'na has been compared with drinking: anyone who indulges in it loses his discriminating judgment, just as a drunkard does. A human is different from an animal only because he possesses viveka [faculty of discrimination] and buddhi [intellect]. And just as a drunkard gradually loses these priceless faculties, an abhima'nii also becomes bereft of them." (2)
