Dada's Lust For

Baba

DADA'S LUST FOR OPPOSITE SEX

Warning: This posting presents a clear-cut issue related with the fight against pseudo-culture, the exploitation of women, and Ananda Marga ideology. Before reading please think whether you can manage this sensitive issue or not. A rational and calm mind is needed; those who get reacted easily must have control over their emotions, otherwise they may not be able to manage these hard facts. Those who do not want to hear this should not read this posting.

Namaskar,
This letter has three basic aspects as one Dada has put a half-naked female on display which created three types of sin:

1. Going against the code of the protection and dignity of women and instead engaging in female exploitation by supporting pseudo-culture.
2. Misrepresentation of yoga.
3. Going against own avadhuta conduct rules.

As Ananda Margiis, our job is to smash this misconception and preach and personify the high ideals of tantra where yoga aims at the unification with the Supreme.

Unfortunately, one avadhuta fell far, far short of this mark.

DADA'S BOOK ON YOGA

On the cover of Dada Vedaprajinananda ji's book he displays a young female wearing form-fitting unitard (sleeveless tight outfit). And the title is "Yoga Weight Loss Secrets". And then Dada has placed his avadhuta name - Vedaprajinananda - in big bold letters along the bottom. That is the entire book cover.

MUST BE VANGUARDS AGAINST PSEUDO-CULTURE

As Ananda Margiis - as neo-humanists - Baba guides us that we are to be the vanguards against the onslaught of pseudo-culture. But instead of leading on this front, this avadhuta has been veritably swallowed up by pseudo-culture.

By Dadaji's book cover and yoga presentation:
(a) he feeds into the false notion that yoga is just for females so that they can become thin and alluring to attract others;
(b) he feeds into the false notion that yoga is merely some type of physical exercise;
(c) he feeds into the false notion that females are to be judged by their bodies;
(d) he feeds into the false notion that females should be half-naked and displayed to "pitch" and sell his book.
(e) and there are numerous other ways how this avadhuta falls into the mud puddle of pseudo-culture in his presentation of his e-book.

See here below the cover of Dada Vedaprajinananda ji's book:

The question then becomes: Why did this avadhutaji do like this? The answer is money. To boost sales this avadhuta is willing to go against his oaths and vows (see avadhuta rules below) and undermine Ananda Marga ideology.

Such is the sad state of affairs.

IT LOOKS LIKE BEING AN AVADHUTA IS SOMETHING

CHEAP & COMMERCIAL, NOT DHARMIC

In all circumstances our aim is to preach and demonstrate Ananda Marga ideology: To teach genuine points of bhagavad dharma - not compromise with the ways of pseudo-culture. The entire world is waiting for something great to happen, i.e. to receive the teachings of Sadguru. Yet here we see one of our avadutas selling-out and giving in to materialistic, societal trends. In this case, he can never implement one stitch of dharma, rather he is anti.

All this he is doing in his avadhuta name. People are bound to think that being an avadhuta is something cheap and commercial, not dharmic and righteous. Because they see that Dadaji is teaching yoga by splashing a photo of a half-naked female on his book cover and preaching the virtues of pseudo-culture values etc. It is really an awful scene and I feel badly for Dadaji to see how he has fallen in this manner.

Worse than that - by failing to live up to the ideal of an avadhuta - he is verily depriving humanity of dharmic teachings. Dadaji's duty is to spread dharma but he is doing something else.

DENIGRATING FEMALES AS SEX OBJECTS

In getting caught up in the winds of the fake yoga syndrome, Dadaji blatantly contradicts so may of his avadhuta conduct rules and vows:

- "Avadhuta shall treat every woman of the world, including his ex-wife, as mother." (32 Rules for Avadhuta, pt #11)

Contradiction: Instead of treating females as mother he is denigrating them as sex objects etc.


- Avadhuta must not remain in a lonely place with any female." (32 Rules for Avadhuta, pt #13)

Contradiction: Here Baba is guiding that avadhutas should have respectful but distant relations with females. It is alleged that Dadaji seems quite comfortable hanging around half-naked females - so much so that he is willing to associate with them by putting a half-dressed female on the cover of his book.


- "One should not look at the face of the opposite sex except at the time of nursing." (37 Workers Rules, pt #15)

Contradiction: Here again Dadaji's dealing and conduct flies in the face of the letter, word, and spirit of this conduct rule.


- "You will protect yourself from sexual weakness and luxury." (WT Conduct Rules, Fourteen Points, pt #12)

Contradiction:  It is alleged that Dadaji has blatantly fallen into indulgence - his mind is coloured in that way.

YOGA IS NOT MERELY A PHYSICAL EXERCISE FOR WEIGHT LOSS

Here Baba guides us that yoga is not a mere physical exercise for losing weight etc.

"Some people think that Yoga means a particular exercise, No, no, no: Yoga does not mean exercise. Yoga means unification. It is the Supreme definition of Yoga." (AV-14, What Is Yoga?)

Yet, the cover of Dadaji's e-book paints this false picture that yoga is just a way to exercise to make one more alluring and attractive.

FEMALE EXPLOITATION

Here Baba warns us about the dangers of pseudo-culture and how our duty is to rise up an fight against all forms of pseudo-culture, including points related with the dignity of women.

"This exploitation in the cultural sphere is accomplished by the propagation of pseudo-culture. Every honest, virtuous, rational person must fight against this pseudo-culture, and inspire others to do the same. If this is not done, the future of humanity will be sealed. It is proper for human beings to struggle for political freedom, for social emancipation; but if their cultural backbone is broken, then all their struggles will end in nothing – like offering ghee into a fire that has died out." (Liberation of Intellect - Neo-Humanism)

SUMMARY

Tragically, Dadaji took a fall on multiple levels by presenting his book in this manner: propagation of pseudo-culture, misrepresentation of yoga, and going against avadhuta rules.

In so doing, he wholly misrepresents the aims and teachings of Guru and Ananda Marga, while the common people are misled. This situations is bad from beginning to end.

in Him,
Liila

BASER PROPENSITIES ARE OVERPOWERING HIM

Up until this point, most say that Dadaji was doing alright. But now his mid-life crisis has arrived and  It is alleged that his baser propensities are overpowering him. There are countless stories how this happens - people become victims of their lower vrttis. This happens to even upstanding people.

Note 1: LINK TO PHOTOS OF BOOKS BY DOGMATIC YOGIS

THEY DID BETTER JOB THAN THIS AVT

Dadaji should take lesson from these dogmatic yogis. They do not have Saduru's divine teachings but what they know they apply, right or wrong. And here they are dealing with the same subject as Dadaji's book but their book covers are far, far better. They are not exploiting females in their given approach.

MUST BE VANGUARDS AGAINST PSEUDO-CULTURE

As Ananda Margiis - as neo-humanists - Baba guides us that we are to be the vanguards against the onslaught of pseudo-culture. But instead of leading on this front, this avadhuta has been veritably swallowed up by pseudo-culture.

By Dadaji's book cover and yoga presentation:
(a) he feeds into the false notion that yoga is just for females so that they can become thin and alluring to attract others;
(b) he feeds into the false notion that yoga is merely some type of physical exercise;
(c) he feeds into the false notion that females are to be judged by their bodies;
(d) he feeds into the false notion that females should be half-naked and displayed to "pitch" and sell his book.
(e) and there are numerous other ways how this avadhuta falls into the mud puddle of pseudo-culture in his presentation of his e-book.

THESE BELOW DOGMATIC YOGIS DID A FAR BETTER JOB

Dadaji should take lesson from these below dogmatic yogis. They do not have Saduru's divine teachings but what they know they apply, right or wrong. And here they are dealing with the same subject as Dadaji's book but their book covers are far, far better. They are not exploiting females in their given approach:
