Baba
Two filthy beggars
Namaskar,
Sadguru Baba guides us that hankering for prestige only leads one to darkness.
Vimalananda and Paramananda are hankering for prestige
In this teaching, Ananda Marga philosophy graphically describes the state of one who desires prestige.
Ananda Marga philosophy says, "Pratiśt́há – the desire to make oneself known. A person influenced by [the desire for] pratiśt́há expects respect from everyone, and hankers after name and fame. This mental state can be easily compared with the mental condition of a beggar. The beggar asks money from others, while the person craving for prestige begs others to give him respect. [The person desires something that] is really meaningless and possesses no value, something that has been fitly compared to the excrement of a pig." (1)

Sadguru says, "Human beings are made of flesh and bones. If their heart or lungs stop functioning, in that case they will be lifted onto the shoulders of 4 other people in order to get thrown onto the funeral pyre. When this is the situation of human beings, where is the scope for self-glorification?" (2)
Below are the two beggars. Wherever they go, they request and sometimes pressurize Margiis to offer them garlands. Especially when they are getting down fromt the train. Because railway stations are crowded, and they want to be garlanded in the presence of a lot of people. By that way, their ego is satiated. That’s why this type of tendency is called “beggar psychology”. Mentally, these people hankar-- “I am hungry for prestige”. By hearing their cry, simple Margiis fell into this chasm. Just see, these two beggars having garland. These two are worthless bulls of AMPS. They have taken birth to destroy AMPS; and that is what they are busy in doing. There are long tales about their misdeeds; most of these already you know. But if you are a new reader, then let us know.
Now, we will come to our main point.
Most filthy title purodha
So what has Vimalananda done to deserve such honour. Most notably, he surreptitiously sold AMPS lands, properties, and buildings spanning the planet, and in return his tycoon boss Rudrananda awarded him this most filthy title of purodha. Why filthy? Because the damage which purodhas have done in AMPS has no comparison.
For instance, purodhas put Baba in jail, while other purodhas became defectors and pulverised AMPS. And still today purodhas are busy in destroying all of Baba's gifts. Now they are moving in saffron robes shamelessly.
Some blind margiis cannot see through the sheen so that is why they are ready to be duped by these unscrupulous people. This below image is focused on gaining prestige. He wants that margiis should feel that he is close in stature to Vishvadevananda, the puppet who sits in the pocket of Rudrananda.

For more clarity of this entire issue please read Baba's teaching.
Social status is like the excrement of a pig
Sadguru Baba says, "The ahaḿkára [pride] that creeps into a person due to the acquisition of jiṋána has very serious repercussions in human life. It can lead to the complete downfall of the individual. Ahaḿkára falls into three basic types, and each of the types brings disastrous results:"
Abhimánaḿ surápánaḿ
Gaoravaḿ raoravaḿ dhruvam;
Pratiśt́há shúkariiviśt́há
Trayaḿ tyaktvá Hariḿ bhajet.
"[Abhimána is like surápána, gaorava leads to raorava, and pratiśt́há is like shúkariiviśt́há: an inflated ego is like drinking wine, self-aggrandizement leads one into the deepest hell, and social status is like the excrement of a pig. Give up all three of these and only sing the glories of the Lord.]" (3)

NB The mind of these two wts is very dirty. That’s why the posting title is what it is.
