Baba
Confused & mock yogii
Namaskar,
Please see here below. In the lotus there is a sketch or image of a person sitting in meditation. There is a white figure inside a pink lotus. Just below the fake yoga figure you will notice that there is printed text. That is Baba’s quote in Hindi (Devanagari) script from Ananda Vacanamrtam. And it is signed: Shrii Shrii Anandamurti ji. This gives the notion whatever this fellow is doing is sanctioned by the Guru of Ananda Marga.
The main problem is that the person sitting in meditation is locking their thumb and index finger together. This is the signature emblem of fake yoga - and can be seen everywhere in the fake yoga movement. Locking that thumb and index finger together is not part of our dharmic system of meditation.
Here following though is Baba’s teaching for how the pose should be done - pay particular attention to the words highlighted in yellow.
Ananda Marga Caryacarya says, “Siddhásana (siddha posture): Press the múládhára cakra with the left heel. Then press the svádhiśt́hána cakra with the right heel. Place the hands palm up on the respective knees. Duration – as long as you wish.” (1)
Once again, here is a description of the above image. In the lotus there is a sketch or image of a person sitting in meditation. There is a white figure inside a pink lotus. Just below the fake yoga figure you will notice that there is printed text. That is Baba’s quote in Hindi (Devanagari) script from Ananda Vacanamrtam. And it is signed: Shrii Shrii Anandamurti ji. This gives the notion whatever this fellow is doing is sanctioned by the Guru of Ananda Marga.
Unfortunately some confused Wts and margiis have forgotten the right things given in Ananda Marga, and instead they are running along with the fake yoga movement and preaching those fake things to margiis. They have adopted the fad and fashion of fake yoga. All in all it is quite pathetic. Sadly, some confused person made this graphic.
A failure to properly guide others
Baba has given a beautiful guideline for how to properly sit in meditation but in place of understanding and emulating Guru’s dharmic teachings, a few confused people are propagating the fad of fake yoga. This is happening on the B group Facebook forum [Ananda Marga Around the Globe].
So we have to watch out and not allow such nasty things to continue. Such persons should learn what Baba has taught and become proper disciples. B group leaders are also to blame as they failed to properly guide their constituents. That’s why this negative thing was posted in the name of Ananda Marga on the B group Facebook forum. Those B group leaders are not teaching their members what is fake and what is proper.
Note: It is quite obvious that if one sits in siddhasana and does sincere sadhana then naturally one’s fingers will relax and become loose - as the mind is fully focused within. So anyone doing this pose is just a product of fake meditation. Verily this whole scene is just the depiction of a fake person doing fake yoga.
Ananda Marga Caryacarya says, “Siddhásana (siddha posture): Press the múládhára cakra with the left heel. Then press the svádhiśt́hána cakra with the right heel. Place the hands palm up on the respective knees. Duration – as long as you wish.” (2)
Here is another image to another pseudo-yogi. Please pay attention to their hands and fingers. Those suffering from inferiority complex give up their own good habits and teachings and latch on to something dogmatic, new, brainless fad. That is what happened here.
Conclusion
These people forgot the golden teachings of Ananda Marga. And look what they are doing. Such types of people give up their good habits like washing their backside with water after defecation and started using blotting paper or tree leaves to wipe their backside. And they gave up their sentient food habit and started eating McDonald’s hamburgers. These are all signs of a defeatist complex or inferiority complex. They will throw away their pure gold and rush towards dirt. It is the duty of every sincere margii to watch all around and see who is doing like this, and try to counsel them and infuse them with the requisite courage to realise that the teachings of Shrii Shrii Anandamurti ji are the greatest. They should not fall into fake yoga.
Namaskar,
In Him,
Renu Chakravarty
