ANSWER OF STUMP SPEECH

Namaskar,
The organisers and supporters of mahaprayan propagate that:

"Mahsambhuti took birth and died and thus, We observe His death day annually - His annual death day is more important  and more glorious. That’s why we are observing mahaprayan each year for 6 days."

This is their line of argument - ie. their stump speech. And B group highlights this notion on the first page of their mahaprayan tri-fold pamphlet as well.

NOTHING SHOULD BE DONE

The logical response to their dogmatic annual mahaprayan programme is that, “Yes, Mahasambhuti takes birth and leaves His physical body, but Mahasambhuti Himself has given a special chapter in Caryacarya about how to celebrate His birthday, but that same all-knowing Mahasambhuti has not given any chapter on what to do on the day that He leaves His physical body. That itself is proof that on the day He left His physical body nothing should be done. Otherwise Mahasambhuti would surely have given something to be done on that day.

Bear in mind, Caryacarya-1 chapter 32 details how our Ananda Marga shraddha ceremony is meant only for human beings. Applying that to Mahasambhuti was and is demeaning. Yet we all know that from 1990 and many, many years thereafter, the mahaprayan leaders used the “Omn madhu” shraddha ceremony mantra for Mahasambhuti. That was completely inappropriate and sinful. Because that mantra and that ceremony is for humans, not for Mahasambhuti.

YEARLY SHRADDHA CEREMONY WITHOUT THE MANTRA

Thereafter the mahaprayan organisers have continued hosting a yearly shraddha ceremony - with or without the mantra - for Mahasambhuti. That is the worst type of sin. Because the Caryacarya part 1 chapter 32 about the Ananda Marga shraddha ceremony is meant for human beings.

So the mahaprayan organisers have been observing the day He (Mahasambhuti) left His physical body every year - for the last 24 years. In so doing they are contravening Caraycarya because all-knowing Mahasambhuti has not given any chapter on what to do on the day He leaves His physical body. That itself is proof that on the day He Has left His physical body nothing should be done. That is what Mahasambhuti wants.

NOT BEYOND TWELVE DAYS

And even if the organisers and supporters of mahaprayan - due to their “high devotion” - think Mahasambhuti is an ordinary human, then their annual mahaprayan program goes against the following point.

"The period of mourning should not extend beyond twelve days." (Caryacarya-1, Shraddha Ceremony)

So when the mahaprayan organisers deliver their stump speech about the virtues of their mahaprayan observance, then there are only two things you need to know. Firstly, the Caryacarya 1 Shraddha chapter is for humans - not Mahasambhuti, and, secondly, as Ananda Marga philosophy does not support any type of annual death ceremony. This alone is enough to trump their stump speech.

Namaskar,
in Him,
Ramavatar

The following is not related with the main topic of this email; it stands on its own.
This section presents definitions given by Sadguru Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji.
The below lines are an “as is” transcription from the audio file of His discourse.

***************************************

“As-Is” Definitions: Vashika’ara

Vashiika'ra: “The final phase is vashiika'ra. When he [the sadhaka] establishes his control over all the fifty controlling propensities of human structure and also over all his motor and sensory organs.”

Note: There are four stages on the spiritual journey: yatamána, vyatireka, ekendriya and vashiikára. Above is the definition given by Lord Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji of the highest stage - vashika'ra.

Confused Proutist

Shrii PR Sarkar says, "Prout is based on spirituality." (Prout-14,Questions and Answers [on Society] – 3)

Shrii PR Sarkar says, "Bodhi jinana, i.e. intuitional (spiritual) knowledge, can be utilised for solving mundane problems. Thus Prout is bodhi jinana." (PNS-15, Talks on Prout)

Note: On and off some have suffered from a particular dogma where they were claiming that communists & socialists are great Prout leaders. And sometimes they have also claimed that any type of atheistic thinker can be a great Prout leader. Such proclamation are completely wrong.

One must always remember Guru's teaching that those who lack spirituality cannot understand Prout. That means one must be firmly established in sadhana to be a Prout leader. Without that, they will be unfit to lead.

Calling a non-sadhaka a great Prout leader is akin to saying that a pig lying in the dirty drain is the cleanest & most pristine living being of this universe.

On this matter there was must be any confusion. Top sadhakas alone are capable of being leaders of Prout and guiding the society forward.

Here is Baba’s complete teaching on this matter:

“PROUT is based on spirituality. Neohumanism is also based on spirituality. Neither PROUT nor Neohumanism are subservient to each other.” (Prout-14,Questions and Answers [on Society] – 3)

   “Knowledge is of two kinds: intellectual and intuitional. Intellectual knowledge is based on experience, hence it is embedded in relativity. It cannot therefore claim to be absolute. Intuitional knowledge is transcendental in character. It dissects and analyses everything by itself, therefore it is absolute.”
   “The approach of PROUT is subjective approach through objective adjustment. This presupposes a connecting link between intuition and intellect. This connecting link or touching point is called “Bodhi Jiṋána”. With the help of Bodhi Jiṋána, intuitional knowledge can be utilized for solving mundane problems. Thus PROUT is a Bodhi Jiṋána.”
   “Logic is a psychic survey. Such a survey may or may not be correct, therefore it is futile to follow logic blindly. The result of your psychic survey is called your rationality. This psychic survey, embedded in relativity, may or may not be correct. Intuitional vision is the best logic. Intuitional vision should be your guiding ideology. For example, it is an axiomatic truth that everything has come from the Cosmic Father and everything will merge in Him, but this truth is beyond the scope of intellectual logic.” (PNS-15, Talks on Prout)
