Baba
Saffron robe thief
Namaskar,
Please look at the below image of the newspaper article’s image, and take note that there is a photo of Sadguru Baba in the middle. (To protect the sanctity of His photo in this email, it has been covered). Below the placement of the photo, it says “Shrii Shrii Anandamurti”, which has been outlined in purple’. And at the end of the article, it is written “Divyacetanananda Avt”, underlined in red along with the English translation.
In newspapers, similar methods are often applied with political articles. For example, if there is an article on the German government, then they may put Angela Merkel’s photo in the center of the article. And the writer will places his or her own name at the end. Then newspaper readers will understand that the person whose name is at the end has written the article. And Angela Merkel's photo is there because the article is about her. Nobody will be confused. It will be obvious Angela Merkel has not written that article. So that is the common, worldwide tradition in newspapers.

Although this article below is in Hindi, by examining it you can see that the name of the person at the end of the article is the writer. But the problem is this is not an article about Baba, the article itself is Baba’s discourse. By this approach, readers will think Divyachetanananda has actually written the article. Practically speaking, Dada Divyacetanananda has plagiarized Baba’s discourse and stuck his name at the end.
The story does not end here. In a conniving way, Divyacetananananda put a one-word prefix before his name. “Prastuti”, which means “presenter”. The sense is that Dada Divyacetanananda wrote the article, and he is presenting it before the readers, and the article is about Shrii Shrii Anandamurti ji.
Sincerity and honesty is the basic sign of a Margii let alone an Avadhuta. But look what he did; Dada has plagiarized Baba’s entire discourse and stuck his name as the writer, and kept open the door to escape from the scene. i.e. he has a ready-made silly justification.
Avt committed sins
Unfortunately, we have seen all kinds of avadhutas, from saintly people to criminals and thieves. So, watch out, and may Parama Purusa save us from these types of muggers & thieves. The avadhuta dada who has printed this Baba's photo and Baba’s discourse in the newspaper has committed three sins:
Sin #1: Lack of proper citation, i.e. date, place, book. This is all absent. So this creates one negative trend. It opens the door for false things to get printed in Baba's name. And it thereby opens the door for the adulteration of Baba's teachings. History bears testimony that the thinking of various social thinkers, spiritual leaders, and Mahasambhutis has been polluted and destroyed in this way.
Sin #2: In the article, look over to the right-most column, and see at the end of that column is Divyacetanananda’s name. The way this is printed gives the reader the false notion that the author of the article is Divyacetananada (DC). DC is a thief. Internally, Divyacetananada wants people to think he is the writer. That is why he presented it in this way to the newspaper. This is a sign of the narcissism of Divyacetanananda. He wants to glorify himself more than he wants to propagate Baba. It is just like when tourists go to certain historical sites, then they take their own selfie photo. Their goal is to project themselves on the launchpad of those statues etc. Similarly, in the name of Baba's discourses, Divyacetanananda wants to highlight himself. If any avadhuta has this type of feeling, that is a degraded avadhuta. Because a true avadhuta is not a thief; the true avadhuta glorifies his Guru's image, and not himself.

Newspaper used as poor people's diaper
Sin #3: The newspaper is used in India as the poor people's diaper. Newspapers are used in India and in so-called poor countries around the globe - especially in impoverished neighborhoods and slums.
(a) newspapers are used as diapers when little kids urinates in their pants;
(b) journals are used by poor and vagrant people who stuff it inside their underwear to soak up the dripping urine / incontinence;
(c) newspapers are tossed by the side of the road where street dogs and wild pigs urinate on them;
(d) newsletter are used as toilets where people defecate into them and toss it into the open sewage line along the side of the road in the slums
So the above are some of the very real and common ways newspapers are used in cities and towns in India and so-called poor countries and destitute regions around the globe, especially in impoverished neighborhoods and slums.
For this reason, printing Baba's photo in the newspaper is a gross violation of Baba's below teaching.
Ananda Marga Caryacarya states, “You shall protect, in all respects and at all costs, the dignity of...the pratikrti [photo] of Márga Guru.” (1)
In the above image of the newspaper article, please note that all of the text is straight from a discourse given by Baba. There is not a single line written by dada Divyacetanananda. Yet nowhere in this article is there any indication provided that the text is Sadguru Baba's discourse. This proves conclusively that Divyacetanananda is a thief.

Conclusion: many deplorable deeds of so-called monk
1. In a standard newspaper article, when providing the text of someone else's discourse there must be a sentence stating, "Following is the text of a discourse given by Shrii Shrii Anandamurti ji." But such an introduction is below conspicuously absent. So Divyacetanananda is a thief.
2. It is standard to inform the reader that Shrii Shrii Anandamurti ji has given the discourse on such a date, in such a place, and that it is printed in such a book. This is also absent. So Divyachetanananda is a thief.
3. It is standard to place the words of another individual in quote marks. Failure to do so marks the article as plagiarism, which is a very serious offence. In this newspaper article there are no quote marks at the beginning or end of the article. So Divyacetanananda is a thief.
In the above article there are simply three columns of Baba’s unquoted discourse text, with Divyachetanananda’s name at the end. It is astonishing when one realizes he is taking personal credit for Baba's discourse.

That Baba's photo appears here does nothing to explain who is the author of the text; indeed as mentioned above it is common to place the photo of one being written about; it is highly objectionable that Baba's photo appears in a newspaper which is to be used for all manner of mundane activities such as eating food on etc, and then thrown in the street to be defecated on by animals.
Namaskar,
In Him,
Krishná Banerjee
Note 1: If you would like to receive a larger image of the newspaper article, let us know.
Note 2: Sometimes the word ‘thief’ is used in the sense of one who plagiarizes. Because some non-English readers may not have familiarity with the term ‘plagiarize’, so the common term ‘thief’ has been used.
