* Please bear in mind that this letter is not for those who do not give importance to Baba's divine teachings and / or are emotionally attached with a particular dada or group.
* This letter is written according to the standard of Ananda Marga. Our Ananda Marga does not appreciate or subscribe to materialistic, pseudo-culture values prevalent nowadays. One should always remember that Ananda Marga is a revolution and Baba has created Ananda Marga to eradicate all sorts of pseudo-culture.
Namaskar,
As we know, our Ananda Marga magazines are for the propagation of Ananda Marga ideals, not pseudo-culture values.
Yet look here at this photo from page 6 of a recent Ananda Yuga magazine from the article “What is Yoga”. Such a photo utterly contravenes countless aspects of our Ananda Marga Way of Life, yet the Ananda Yuga magazine editor has selected this image for the pages of our Ananda Marga magazine - Ananda Yuga.
Please pay attention to the use of the blanket underneath the shoulders in the below photo. This blanket is the cause of the deformation of the cervical spine and leads to the wrong way of doing the asana. But this is populate in fake yoga and unfortunately from there Guniindrananda has dragged this fake yoga tactic into Ananda Marga.
Here again, in case you did not read this before the photo, please pay attention to the use of the blanket underneath the shoulders in the above photo. This blanket is the cause of the deformation of the cervical spine and leads to the wrong way of doing the asana. But this is popular in fake yoga and unfortunately from there Guniindrananda has dragged this fake yoga tactic into Ananda Marga.
So how ironic this is. Dada G used this photo in his magazine for an article entitled “What is yoga”, yet this photo itself is fake yoga and has nothing to do with our tantric yoga as given by Sadguru Baba.
Actually, Dadaji did not just make this blunder once - he did it twice. First he posted this bogus photo on page 6 of “What is Yoga”, and then on page 32 in the article titled “Dyspepsia of Yogic Treatment”, Dadaji again placed this fake yoga photo. So Dada G committed the same mistake twice. And the worst part about it is that he did this all in the name of Sadguru Baba. Dada presents it as if Guru appreciates this fake yoga photo. Because the article “What is Yoga” is originally from Guru’s book Ananda Vacanamrtam and the article “Dyspepsia of Yogic Treatment” is originally from Guru’s book Yogic Treatments. And Dada put this fake yoga photo with both articles - i.e. twice.
From Senior Acarya Diary
Important: Baba has included sarvaungasana in Ananda Marga because this asana helps maintain the proper secretion in the thyroid gland which is vital for proper health. This asana naturally massage the thyroid gland and balances the secretions. Baba guides this in senior acarya diary. But due to this fake pose with the blanket the whole thing is ruined. Now the benefits of those pose for the thyroid gland are lost.
Certainly, every sincere Ananda Margii will understand the ills and dogmas related with this photo. Even then for your convenience, here is a short list for your review.
Dada G. surrendered to pseudo-culture
Please pay attention to the blanket under his shoulders because this use of a blanket is not allowed in Ananda Marga asana system. That will ruin the entire asana. Baba has given a well thought-out procedure and this Dada is misguiding margiis at-large. By doing opposite of Guru’s guideline and doing that which Baba prohibits.
#1: In the Ananda Yuga magazine, the person shown on page 6 and page 32 is a display of pseudo-culture and fake yoga. In the recent edition of the Ananda Yuga magazine the editors grabbed a fake yoga photo from the web and placed it twice in Ananda Yuga..
#2: Because the person is using this blanket, the asana cannot be done properly. Notice how the person’s chin is not touching his chest. Yet Guru’s exact guideline in Caryacarya is that - “The chin must be in contact with the chest.” (For more details please Baba’s Caryacarya quote #1 which is listed below)
Infusing inferiority complex on readers of AM magazine
This entire display contravenes our social code - Caryacarya. One should always remember that Ananda Marga is a revolution and Baba has created Ananda Marga to eradicate all sorts of pseudo-culture. Those who are non-margiis or new to Ananda Marga will think it is okay to place the blanket underneath the shoulders in this asana. But it is not fine to to place the blanket underneath the shoulders in this asana according to Ananda Marga.
The Ananda Yuga magazine is in Hindi only so most readers will be from the Indian subcontinent. Yet here, a white western man is on display - further infusing a cultural inferiority complex upon Hindi speakers etc. Already, since the British rule, India has surrendered itself to European dominance and western values. And this photo further cements this idea in the minds of Hindi readers.
New margiis who are not aware about Ananda Marga ideals will get the wrong idea that Ananda Marga is submerged in pseudo-culture by seeing this photo in the Ananda Yuga magazine. They will think we are just a carbon copy of so many fake yoga outfits that are sprouting up all over the place. They will not realise that ours is a true tantric path.
Keeping the above points in mind kindly again see the photo up above which appears on cover page of Ananda Yuga, Hindi.
Dada G. selling out to pseudo-culture
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 our Ananda Yuga editor Ac Guniindrananda jii selling-out and surrendering to materialistic, societal trends.
All this is going on in the name of our Ananda Marga magazine - Ananda Yuga. People are bound to think that Ananda Marga yoga is something cheap and commercial, not dharmic and righteous. Because they see that the Ananda Yuga editor Dada Guniindrananda is teaching yoga by putting photos of fake yoga asanas in their magazine and preaching the virtues of pseudo-culture values etc. It is really an awful scene and I feel badly how the Ananda Yuga editor Guniindrananda jii has fallen from the dharma of Ananda Marga and landed in the dungeon of fake yoga.
By failing to live up to the ideal of our Ananda Marga ideology, Ac Guniindrananda jii verily depriving humanity of dharmic teachings. His duty is to spread dharma but he are doing just opposite.
Baba created Ananda Marga to save this situation but this Dada is plunged in pseudo-culture, unfortunately. In getting caught up in the winds of fake yoga, Ac Guniindrananda jii blatantly contradicts his conduct rules and vows by selecting and placing this degrading and denigrating photo on pages 6 & 32 of the magazine.
Conclusion
By the above it is quite evident that Dada Guniindrananda jii has fallen from the path and slipped into the dungeon of materialistic pseudo-culture. Dada jii’s mind has degenerated from the path of renunciation as he is indulged in pseudo-culture and the fake yoga movement. By his actions it is clear Dada jii is degenerated. Ananda Marga ideology guides one thing and Ac Guniindrananda jii is doing something completely different. That is the sad state of affairs.
Namaskar,

Only for committed margiis
Baba is very clear how to perform each and every asana including sarvaungasana.
Caryacarya states, “Sarváuṋgásana (all-limbs posture): (a) Lie down on your back. Gradually raise the entire body and keep it straight, resting its weight on your shoulders. The chin must be in contact with the chest. Support both sides of your trunk with your hands. The toes must remain together; the eyes must be directed at the toes.” (1)
Caryacarya states, “Males must wear a Kaopiina (laungot́á), and there should be no other clothing on the body.” (2)
Now the point is very clear that the person doing sarvaungasana is using a rolled up blanket under the shoulders. And this completely violates Guru’s system - but placing a folded / rolled-up blanket is all the fanfare in the fake yoga movement.
The person is wearing pseudo-culture tights, and not a laungota. This is completely wrong. Because by seeing this photo people will not understand that practitioners should do asanas wearing a laungota. And a laungota can be presented in a very sentient manner just as is done in Caryacarya part 3. But the editors did not do that and instead chose this pseudo-culture depiction without any laungota.
All of the above points are related with the above fake yoga depiction of this asana which was presented on pages 6 & 32 of the Ananda Yuga magazine.
