Obesity: Wt-Didis health issue

Note: This section is not for those who don't have concern for our Wts.

Namaskar,

Sadguru Baba says, “In the world today a handful of people who do no physical work, but live by their wits, have appropriated to themselves most of the wealth of humanity, so they are able to buy comparatively expensive foods, and use them to satisfy their taste buds. As a result, they, on the one hand, swell with unnecessary fat, while, on the other hand, those people doing hard manual labour are forced to live in poverty and deprived of the ghee, butter and sweets they need to maintain their bodies...So my point is that obesity is primarily a disease of well-off, non-labouring society.” (1)

here is the overweight Didi

morbidly overweight Didi

High-salaried office workers, rich businessmen and parasitic politicians are those who suffer most from obesity…. Another distinguishing mark of such people is that they are most greedy for those foods which are most fattening; that is, when invited outside, they will never even by mistake eat much in the way of vegetable preparations – instead they will eat a lot of luci, fish, meat and sweets. As they grow older and their livers become weak, they will lose that voracious appetite. Then they will sorrowfully say to people that they cannot consume food as they used to. Their muscles become flaccid and they begin to suffer from acidity, constipation or intestinal troubles. Fat accumulated on the chest affects the heart and lungs and makes it difficult for these organs to function.” (1)


The problem of obesity is prevalent amongst our female Wts

Sadly, the problem of obesity is prevalent amongst our Wts as well.

Here above this morbidly overweight Didi is far too large to properly teach asanas to others. Our yogic nuns should be an example to society for how to lead a healthy life. And kaoshikii and asanas are a vital component of human health. But when people see grossly overweight Didis - like the one pictured above - they think ours could not possibly be the proper path. Because a yogic nun should have basic facility with the practice of asanas.

And it is true that, conservatively speaking, 90% of our Wts Didis are not regular in asanas and 60% are not regular in fasting. And verily that is the problem. In our organisation so many WT Didis are suffering from high blood pressure and cholesterol, heart disease, diabetes etc.

Nowadays, the Bangalore training centre for Wts Didis is very low - barely any new blood is entering our Wt ranks. And many of the Didis in uniform are obese. Thus we are facing a deficit situation with our workers. We are losing existing workers faster than we are gaining new ones. All in all it is an unfortunate state of affairs.

Margiis are requested to participate in fixing this problem. When you see an such Wt patient then politely try to convince them that their existence is very meaningful and they should cure themselves from this ailment of obesity by strictly adhering to the do’s and don’ts from Guru’s Yogic Treatments book.

In Him,
Sulekha

Re: You may or may not know these myths of our Marga - part 2

Namaskar,

I wholeheartedly support the views expressed in this message.

PDNarayan 
Baba, Lord Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji, started Ananda Marga to eradicate all sorts of dogma and establish dharma. But unfortunately after 1990, many so-called purodhas and in-charges infused and inculcated many dogmas. Due to this, Ananda Marga is becoming a pool of dogma.

Find out who can give a soothing touch with the balm of peace - Ananda Vanii #27

Ananda Vanii states, “Today all over the world, a grim fight has started between the evil forces and the benevolent forces. Only those who possess the moral courage to fight against the evil forces, can give a soothing touch to the struggle-torn earth with the balm of peace. Remember you are spiritual aspirants. Hence you alone shall have to undertake the mighty task of saving the earth.” (1)

Note: The above is one of Baba’s original Ananda Vaniis. These original and true Ananda Vaniis are unique, eternal guidelines that stand as complete discourses in and of themselves. They are unlike Fake Ananda Vaniis.

*********************************************
For males only + no circumcision

"(1) Immediately upon reaching adolescence (in India, one reaches adolescence in between the ages of twelve and fourteen), males should start using Kaopiina (laungot́á) and should pull back the foreskin of the penis.
(2) The foreskin should be pulled back and the area washed and kept clean.
(3) Never indulge in bad practices, such as masturbation, etc." (1)

If I ever feel frustrated while moving on this path of Ananda Marga, please bless me with the stamina to march onwards

"Calár pathe prabhu klánti yadi áse,tumi utsáha jugio..." (PS 1938)

Purport:

O' Parama Purusa,please give me the strength and encouragement to move on the path of righteousness. If I ever feel fatigued and tired while moving on this path of Ananda Marga, the path of enlightenment, please bless me with the stamina to march onwards. After engaging in various works, sometimes in intervals, now and then, if frustration and worry come, then please grace me by removing it.

Baba, out of greed for the honey of flowers, if insects come into my mental garden, because pasha rpu, if lower propensities come into active in my mind then please help me, save me. If, due to intense rains, black clouds cover & envelop the blue sky of my mind, and if I become confused and depressed, then please come with a soft smile and bless me with samvit. O’ show me the right path.

O' my Lord, I am moving with Your energy, strength, and blessing. You are the owner of all energy. I have no strength. I have nothing of my own. Baba, You are the controller. I surrender unto You completely. O' Supreme Entity, O' the Granter of Liberation, I have full faith that I will receive Your grace. My time passes, counting the days to receive Your divine grace. Please kindle my lamp of hope. O' Parama Purusa Baba, You are my everything...
