Baba
Dada’s intimate photos
Namaskar,
It is most unfortunate that some of our Dadas / Wts have taken to posting photos of themselves on the internet that blatantly contravene their own avadhuta conduct rules.
Our Dadas should post photos & those photos should only be of our Ananda Marga service projects etc. And those photos should be posted to inspire others to support the great cause - i.e. bhagavad dharma and welfare to universal humanity.
Wt conduct rule guides: “One should not look at the face of the opposite sex.” (37 Workers Rules, Point #15)

Who is this Dada
And there are many more photos of Dada Shambhushivananda posing with young sisters. Please find those photos below. As you may know that Dada Shambhushivananda is in his advanced years and it is very unbecoming and against all avadhuta conduct rules for him to be mixing so loosely with the opposite sex. There is much more to be said but I think the photos speak for themselves.
You will have to protect yourself from sexual weakness

Baba says: Oppose corrupt wts - do not tolerate their behaviour
So here following is Baba’s great teaching where He guides us about the importance of pointing out the wrongdoing of close persons. Just like parents with love point out their kids, similarly with love we are to create the requisite circumstantial pressure so those who are very, very close to us - margiis, Wts, laokik relations, colleagues, and other respected persons etc - can mend their ways.
Ananda Marga ideology states, "If our own person or relative deviates from the truth or is lacking sincerity, oppose him, do not tolerate him. It does not matter if he is our own relative. If our own person is dishonest and insincere then he is more dangerous. Why? If there is a snake outside it is dangerous, but if a snake comes inside the house it is more dangerous. Therefore he [our close person] should be opposed more strongly." (1)
Ananda Marga ideology states, अपना आदमी हो, घर का आदमी हो ; कोई सत्य से इधर-उधर हट गया, sincerity की कमी जिनमें है—उसका विरोध करो, बर्दाश्त मत करो | अपना आदमी है तो क्या है | अपना आदमी अगर असाधु है, insincere है, तो, और भी अधिक ख़तरनाक है | क्यों ? बाहर में अगर साँप रहा, वह जितना ख़तरनाक है, घर में अगर साँप घुस गया तो और भी अधिक ख़तरनाक है | इसलिए, और भी, उसका अधिक विरोध होना चाहिए |”1
In His above guideline Baba explains that bad elements in society are dangerous, but bad elements inside your house - inside your organisation - are more dangerous. Do not tolerate them - oppose them.
