Namaskar,
These days B group is broadcasting two central claims:
1. Kinshukji is the only son of God;
2. We - B group - are the blessed ones because we have Kinshukji.
Here following is more about what's going on.
Verily, now Kinshukji and his team, as well as other B group leaders, are moving from village to village across West Bengal to introduce Kinshukji as the only son of God.
Hearing this propaganda, margiis became surprised - because every Ananda Margii thinks of themselves as the child of Parama Purusa. This is the common feeling. And Baba has always stated how all are His children.
"All are children of the Supreme Father, all are progeny of the Supreme Entity, children of the same Father." (1)
So, for Ananda Margiis, it is quite odd to the ears to hear that only Kinshukji is child of Parama Purusa. Because they feel in their heart that He is the Cosmic Father and all His progeny.
Yet now B group is trying to erase this devotional feeling from their minds and introduce the false and bogus idea that only Kinshukji is the son of Parama Purusa and everyone else has no familial relation with Supreme Father. Besides Kinshukji, all others are step-sons and step-daughters, or distant neighbors etc.
This is the type of indoctrination that is going on. It is reminiscent of the dogma associated with one of the Semitic religions that preach that their saviour is the only son of God and all else have no direct relation with the Divine. B group is following in the footsteps of this religious dogma and forgetting the highly unique and devotional aspect of Ananda Marga that all are the progeny of Parama Purusa.
In addition to claiming that Kinshukji is the only son of the Supreme Father, B group is also broadcasting that they themselves are the blessed ones because the have brought Kinshukji into their camp. So B group members are blessed and all others are wretched and cursed. That is their essential claim.
To this end, they are moving from village to village, unit to unit, in the western part of West Bengal to present Kinshukji to all the margiis. In each place, Kinshuk is surrounded by his entourage as B group is bent on "tutoring" margiis about Kinshukji's grand stature, as well as why B group is the blessed faction. So in each location, there is big pomp and show along with a feast and other celebratory events etc. This is how B group is getting the word out in hopes of establishing themselves as unparalleled.
Seeing the grand scene that B group is making, rational margiis are frustrated and wondering why they are being asked to donate funds for this purpose: "It is just a waste of money." Instead margiis want their funds and donations used for social service projects. After all, in West Bengal itself, there are countless villages that do not even have clean water etc. So that is why margiis are thinking that B group's promotional tour is just a big waste of resources, time, and energy.
Even then, B group is working endlessly to boost their image and impose an inferiority complex on all others. Such pseudo-dharmic leaders want to establish their own guruhood by stating that the word of their group is the word of God and the final truth.
Needless to say, every sadhaka should be 100% cautious when they hear such dogmatic claims: Really Kinshukji is the only son and everyone else is an alien; really B group is the blessed faction and all else are heathens. No rational Ananda Margii can think in this way.
Here Ananda Marga philosophy strictly warns us about the fanatical rants of extremists who claim themselves to be the blessed ones while all others are lowly and despised. Such persons can never to anything good for humanity.
"“Your God is the only God. You are His blessed sons and daughters, and others will burn in hellfire.” By these sermons, unity among human beings can never be achieved." (2)
Hearing the two preposterous claims by B group, most margiis are not swayed. Because for years and years sadhakas have been meditating on Parama Purusa as the Supreme Father, and have thus realised they are His children.
The only answer to this matter is that margiis and Wts should double-up their efforts in reading and studying Baba's books, and doing more meditation as well. By this way the idea will set deeper in the mind that they are the children of Parama Purusa. And they will not get sway by "loose-canon" types of claims as B group is doing these days.
Everyone should be alert and remember in their depths of their heart that they are the blessed child of Parama Purusa.
"You know that you are the loving sons and daughters of Parama Puruśa." (3)
"All the microcosms are part and parcel of Parama Puruśa: all are His progeny, His dear children...Parama Puruśa dearly loves His children...[and] wants them to progress physically, mentally, and spiritually." (4)
Namaskar,
in Him,
Surabhi Benerji
One other dynamic that is functioning here is that both H and B group are holding maximum programs with margiis around India in order to strengthen their position in court. Both want to stand in the courtroom and present evidence that they are the ones that margiis have embraced as the real AMPS. For this reason, both H and B group are going around, taking photos of all their gatherings with margiis, videoing their processions, and recording how the Jai slogan is being raised for their party. Each group is aiming to present anecdotal evidence to the court that they are accepted as the true leaders of AMPS. For this reason they are holding one DMS after another. Yet this is all one game for their courtroom drama and quest for power. Is this not shameful.

Intro: Kindly read the below quote from Baba's teachings. At the end of the quote a question has been posed. If your answer to the question is correct then it means you read Baba's books carefully; and, if your answer is wrong or you do not know the answer, then it signifies that you need to pay more attention when reading Guru's teachings. After all, if sadhakas are not diligent in studying Baba's books then who is going to read them - non-margiis?
"They have taught people to view each other with suspicion. By restricting social welfare activities to their community, they have kept the rest of the people in the dark about the true state of affairs. They have not let the people know whether they were actually the promoters or detractors of human welfare. By raising an iron curtain, a veil of dark ignorance, before them, they have taught people to chatter a few chosen, tutored sentences. They have confined them within a small dungeon, with its doors and windows locked – they have converted them into owls of darkness. This is the inevitable outcome of those pseudo-philosophies." (Namah Shiváya Shántáya, Disc: 14)
Quiz: Who is Baba referring to in the above quote?
Most probably, as an Ananda Margii, you know what the answer is. However to fully satisfy your curiosity and get the complete answer, kindly read the section directly AFTER the below Ananda Vanii.
"The humans of today are possessed of spirited intellect and accomplished wisdom. They are keen to advance with rapid step shattering the shackles of dogmas. They will no longer be entrapped by the illusion of opportunism. The rays of the crimson dawn of a new humanity on the eastern horizon have started weaving textures of colours on their eyelids and in the subtle recesses of their minds. As for those who have been dreaming of keeping humanity imprisoned by dogmas, their days are numbered; their blissful dreams are being shattered to pieces. I call upon all enlightened people and say: “Go ahead with courage. The humanity has been awaiting you. Establish it in the excellence and grandeur of glory." (Ananda Vanii #55)
Answer: In His above teaching, Baba is primarily referring to communists - they keep the common people in a dark state of repression and oppression. There is no scope to see things in the light of day - everything is hidden under cloak of darkness. The free and open exchange of ideas is not permitted. The media is wholly controlled by the state and the people have no idea what is happening in the world around them. Only they know the spoon-fed slogans given by those communist leaders.
Some dogmatic religions like Islam also adhere to this type of censorship where the people are forced to blindly follow their religious codes, without question or reason. Basically wherever the priest, or mullah etc is leveraging tremendous control over their community and not allowing open discussions, then that is also applicable here.
First and foremost however, this teaching is an indirect reference to communism and those exploitative communist leaders.

DOGMA:
“X IS THE ONLY SON OF GOD”
“X IS THE ONLY SON OF GOD”
Namaskar,
These days B group is broadcasting two central claims:
1. Kinshukji is the only son of God;
2. We - B group - are the blessed ones because we have Kinshukji.
Here following is more about what's going on.
KINSHUK IS THE ONLY SON OF GOD:
PROCLAIMING THIS TO ALL
PROCLAIMING THIS TO ALL
Verily, now Kinshukji and his team, as well as other B group leaders, are moving from village to village across West Bengal to introduce Kinshukji as the only son of God.
Hearing this propaganda, margiis became surprised - because every Ananda Margii thinks of themselves as the child of Parama Purusa. This is the common feeling. And Baba has always stated how all are His children.

So, for Ananda Margiis, it is quite odd to the ears to hear that only Kinshukji is child of Parama Purusa. Because they feel in their heart that He is the Cosmic Father and all His progeny.
BOGUS IDEA:
ONLY KINSHUKJI IS THE SON OF GOD
ONLY KINSHUKJI IS THE SON OF GOD
Yet now B group is trying to erase this devotional feeling from their minds and introduce the false and bogus idea that only Kinshukji is the son of Parama Purusa and everyone else has no familial relation with Supreme Father. Besides Kinshukji, all others are step-sons and step-daughters, or distant neighbors etc.

B group is following in the footsteps of this religious dogma and forgetting the highly unique and devotional aspect of Ananda Marga that all are the progeny of Parama Purusa.
PROPAGANDA:
B GROUP IS THE “BLESSED FACTION”
B GROUP IS THE “BLESSED FACTION”
In addition to claiming that Kinshukji is the only son of the Supreme Father, B group is also broadcasting that they themselves are the blessed ones because the have brought Kinshukji into their camp. So B group members are blessed and all others are wretched and cursed. That is their essential claim.

"JUST A WASTE OF MONEY"

After all, in West Bengal itself, there are countless villages that do not even have clean water etc. So that is why margiis are thinking that B group's promotional tour is just a big waste of resources, time, and energy.
DESPERATE TO CLAIM GURUHOOD
Even then, B group is working endlessly to boost their image and impose an inferiority complex on all others. Such pseudo-dharmic leaders want to establish their own guruhood by stating that the word of their group is the word of God and the final truth.
Needless to say, every sadhaka should be 100% cautious when they hear such dogmatic claims: Really Kinshukji is the only son and everyone else is an alien; really B group is the blessed faction and all else are heathens. No rational Ananda Margii can think in this way.
BABA'S STRICT WARNING
Here Ananda Marga philosophy strictly warns us about the fanatical rants of extremists who claim themselves to be the blessed ones while all others are lowly and despised. Such persons can never to anything good for humanity.
"“Your God is the only God. You are His blessed sons and daughters, and others will burn in hellfire.” By these sermons, unity among human beings can never be achieved." (2)
READING AND STUDYING BABA'S BOOKS, AND DOING MEDITATION
Hearing the two preposterous claims by B group, most margiis are not swayed. Because for years and years sadhakas have been meditating on Parama Purusa as the Supreme Father, and have thus realised they are His children.
The only answer to this matter is that margiis and Wts should double-up their efforts in reading and studying Baba's books, and doing more meditation as well. By this way the idea will set deeper in the mind that they are the children of Parama Purusa. And they will not get sway by "loose-canon" types of claims as B group is doing these days.
Everyone should be alert and remember in their depths of their heart that they are the blessed child of Parama Purusa.

Note 1: CONCOCTING EVIDENCE TO PRESENT TO THE COURT
One other dynamic that is functioning here is that both H and B group are holding maximum programs with margiis around India in order to strengthen their position in court. Both want to stand in the courtroom and present evidence that they are the ones that margiis have embraced as the real AMPS. For this reason, both H and B group are going around, taking photos of all their gatherings with margiis, videoing their processions, and recording how the Jai slogan is being raised for their party.

हे प्रभु! सभी तुम्हारी निकटताचाहते हैं।
प्रभात संगीत 894 प्रभु , सबाई तोमाय काछे चाय
भावार्थ
हे प्रभु! सभी लोग तुम्हारी निकटता और कृपा चाहते हैं। तुम सब जगह हो। तुम इस विश्व के प्रत्येक कण, प्रत्येक चिन्ह और अणु परमाणु सब में छिपे हुए हो। सिद्धान्ततः तो मैं यह समझता हॅूं पर इस परम सत्य को अनुभव करना सरल नहीं है।
अपनी अपूर्णता के कारण कभी मैं तुम्हें दूर आकाश में ढूंडता हूँ तो कभी मधुर सुगंधित वायु में और कभी तारा मंडलों में। इस प्रकार मैं अपना समय तुम्हें बाहर खोजने में नष्ट करता रहता हॅूं। यह सब व्यर्थ ही चला जाता है क्यों कि मैं तुम्हें अपने हृदय के भीतर नहीं खोजता हूँ जहाॅं तुम हमेशा अपने दिव्य ‘‘श्री श्री आनन्दमूर्ति के रूप‘‘ में रहते हो।
तुम्हारे इतने आकर्षक और प्यारे स्वरूप को मैंने अपने भीतर नहीं खोजा इसलिये निराश होकर तुम्हारी चाह में रो रहा हूँ , चिल्ला रहा हूँ ,
बाबा! तुम्हारी लीला अमाप्य है। तुम महान हो, मैं तुम्हें अनगिनत बार प्रणाम करता हॅूं।
