How Dada befooled + 2 more

How Dada befooled

Note: This letter is only for those who have reverence for Sadguru Baba Shrii Shrii Anandamurti ji and try to follow His Ananda Marga ideology.

Namaskar,

There is a slogan which Dada Sarvatmananda created out of thin air and propagated at the end of October 1990 in order to win over Wts and margiis. And here is that slogan which he attributed to Baba.

I am not this physical body, this physical body is not me. If you want to know me, work for my mission, because I have merged myself with my mission.

What you have just read came from the fertile brain of Sarvatmananda.

From time to time a few raise the old dogma that, "Baba has merged Himself into AMPS". Even though most are understanding that this "merger" quote is just one dogma, still a few people are trying to misguide margiis.

Now let’s examine this further and see how and why this fabricated quote came into existence. By this above fake quote, Sarvatmananda befooled margiis into thinking that Sadguru Baba merged into AMPS. And since AMPS was in Sarvatmananda’s pocket, all wts and margiis must follow the command of Sarvatmananda. And that is exactly what margiis and Wts did those days.

Ploy of Dada Sarvatmananda

Bogus quote: "If you want to know me, work for my mission, because I have merged myself with my mission."

So it was in that spirit, whereby mission means organisation, that Sarvatmananda created this fake quote. Dada’s intent was: Baba has merged in the mission (i.e. organisation) and to please Baba one has to follow every unjust order of Sarvatmananda. This was Sarvatmananda’s plan for keeping all power concentrated in his hands. Remember, back in late October 1990, AMPS was very different. It was a monolithic structure under the dictatorship of one person. It was not fractured; there was one person, i.e. Sarvatmananda, in the top seat. And this plan worked; nobody opposed Dada Sarvatmananda.

Here is proof of the unquestioned authority that Dada Sarvatmananda had: Just a few days later, Central Committee unanimously declared the mahaprayan divas observance as an annual pilgrimage to Tiljala - thereby making Kolkata the focal point. The mandate was for all to come to Tiljala to observe so-called mahaprayan. It was forbidden to observe mahaprayan anywhere else. It had to be done in Tiljala (Kolkata.) All because Sarvatmananda wanted to make Kolkata the spiritual hub of AMPS. And with this forged Baba quote Sarvatmananda achieved his end.

Everything was in Sarvatmananda's pocket

Just as those Hindu priests fabricated one tale that Mahaprabhu merged into the Jagannath idol in order to cover-up the murder and control all his disciples, similarly Sarvatmananda concocted that false merge in mission quote and attributed it to Baba to control margiis and wts. Sarvatmananda’s plan was that they should follow his every word because he (Sarvatmananda) was the organisational head and Baba had merged Himself into the mission / organisation.

And we can see that Sarvatmananda got success. In the next few short years, he carried out so many dastardly deeds by his mere order: mahaprayan dogma, Fake Ananda Vaniis, expulsion as a weapon etc. Sarvatmananda could implement so many wrongful edicts because he had harnessed the obedience of workers and margiis by concocting this single quote: "If you want to know me, work for my mission, because I have merged myself with my mission." For this reason, so many listened to his every word and followed his command.

Bogus quote is against Guru’s teachings

This bogus quote is (a) not in concert with Sadguru's rational ideology, and (b) not found in any Ananda Marga publication. Nobody can give any proof that this is from an audio file or even a non-printed discourse. These are the key reasons why nobody should propagate this false quote. Following is the bogus quote wrongly attributed to Baba that was propagated by Sarvatmananda starting in Oct 1990:

I am not this physical body, this physical body is not me. If you want to know me, work for my mission, because I have merged myself with my mission.

This above quote is not found in any Ananda Marga publication, and there is no proof that this is even from an audio file of a non-printed discourse.

For these above reasons alone, nobody should propagate this false quote. One of our main duties as Ananda Margiis is to maintain and present Sadguru Baba’s teaching in an untainted manner to the world and future generations. That means Baba’s books and discourses should be clearly noted. Side by side, we should also ensure dogmatic words, phrases, and teachings are not propagated in the name of Baba.

Our duty is to expose the "fake merger" quote

See the absurd logic of those persons whose dream is to spread this dogmatic merger quote:

(1) The goal of human beings is Parama Purusa. So first, all the created beings merge into Parama Purusa;
(2) And then, according to this dogmatic merger quote, Baba merges into the organisation;
(3) In which case the organisation then becomes the center of the entire cosmos;
(4) Thus, the final result is that all merge into the pocket of Sarvatmananda & Rudrananda since they have been ruling AMPS since 1990.

The logic of those few who are propagating this "merger" quote is just like drunkard's gossip. Yet all along group leaders have tried to brainwash their stooges into wholly accepting this false quote as true.

Or we can think of it this way. If Parama Purusa Baba merged Himself in the mission then outside of the mission there is no Parama Purusa. His mission itself is something very specific and limited – it does not encompass the entire vastness of creation and the unexpressed universe. The scope of mission is contained within particular boundaries. So, if the infinite Parama Purusa merged Himself into that limited mission, then who is to Lord over the rest of creation that is not included within the limited confines of the mission. This unsubstantiated quote asserts that outside of the mission there is no Parama Purusa.
https://anandamarganewsbulletin.blogspot.com/

Yet we know that Parama Purusa is that infinite Entity Who is omnipresent. He is everywhere – He is not just relegated to being inside the boundary walls of the mission. It is a completely illogical and absurd notion to proclaim that Parama Purusa merged in the mission.

Parama Purusa is infinite & everywhere

Ananda Marga ideology guides us that Parama Purusa cannot be bound or limited in any way.

Ananda Marga Ideology states, "Sahasrashiirśá Puruśah sahasrákśah sahasrapát...” (1)

Meaning: 'He has infinite heads and He has infinite eyes, He is seeing everything. And He has infinite hands, infinite feet. He is everywhere. Parama Purusa is Everywhere.'

The grand idea is that Parama Purusa is that all-expansive Entity who is beyond all relative description and who cannot be limited within the worldly, mundane sphere. Parama Purusa cannot merge into a limited, inert structure.

So how can Parama Purusa become one with AMPS when AMPS itself is just one mundane structure. On that basis, anyone who claims that Parama Purusa has merged into AMPS is just speaking out of thin air - their talk has neither head nor tail, i.e. no sense; it goes completely against the fundamentals of spiritual teachings.

The bogus quote

Here again is the fake quote that is wrongly attributed to Sadguru Baba. Just Sarvatmananda invented and propagated this fake quote in 1990 in order to increase his own power:

I am not this physical body, this physical body is not me. If you want to know me, work for my mission, because I have merged myself with my mission.

Sarvatmananda’s magic

In AMPS, Dada Sarvatmananda invented this quote in October 1990 because at that time he was the AMPS organisation/ mission. He ruled over everything and he thought that by this quote everyone will be convinced fully to blindly follow and execute his order. This fake quote suited Sarvatmananda’s needs well. All dadas supported him. Here are a few examples of the many Wts who supported him: Bhaveshananda, Nigamananda, Tadbhavananda, Vratishvarananda, Vijayananda, Mantreshvarananda, Rudrananda, Parmeshvarananda, Vandanananda, among others, including all those purodhas who were alive those days, and those who have since died as well.

Cause of human conflicts

Prout philosophy states, "Human longings are infinite. If these infinite human longings are allowed to run after objects of worldly enjoyment, conflict among human beings is bound to take place. As material wealth is limited, over-abundance for one leads to crippling scarcity for others. These infinite human longings can be fulfilled only through psychic and spiritual wealth. Brahma has generously arranged infinite psychic and spiritual wealth for human beings; humanity will have to properly utilize that wealth." (1)
