Case #1: BP Mr. Piyush Majhi
Shameful facts of divergence of BP regulations to demolish the margii rights by avoiding the original BP manual given by Parama Purusa BABA.
Place: Howrah, West Bengal Year: 2014.
Now we are passing our organisational life in very critical situation of Ananda Marga society where some power monger and groupist WTs are playing ducks & dracks with the jurisdictions of grihii margii. Here is one of the incident of Howrah district in WB. In 2013 BP(G) election, Mr. Piyush Majhi was elected by the voters of Howrah Bhukti. Majhi was / is a very active and devoted margii. But there was the obstruction due to his revolutionary attitude. He protest against the illegal selection of PP (Ac Kinshuk jo) by deviating from caryacarya in spite of stay order given by court. This is the cause of divergence of Mr. Piyush Majhi as a BP in whimsically & illegal way.
Ac Kalyaneshvarananda Avt, Ac Mantreshvarananda Avt, Ac Trambyakeshvarananda Avt and Ac Tanmayananda Avt organised a meeting together at Ranihati, Howrah. There they announced in front of near about 200 margiis of Howrah Bhukti, "From now on Mr.Piyush Majhi was expelled from BP(G) post and from now on Mr. Bakul Roy will hold the BP (G) post.”
The total margiis samaj was astonished by this announcement. Margiis demanded to know by which law, Mr. Piyush Majhi was expelled from BP (G) post. These WTs argued that Centre (AMPS) can do this. 80% of the margiis supported Mr.Piyush Majhi. So, after that incident there was no BP election held. In 2016, Mr. Subrata Saha was announced orally as a BP(G) of Howrah Bhukti.
So this is the appeal to every margii brothers & sisters: let us come together to fight against this sinful act and to re-establish the margii rights.
Case #2: BP Shrii Bhabani Sankar Ghosh
Next I highlight on another incident where the bhukti pradhan of Paschim Medinipur (Midnapur) bhukti was to resign forcefully by Ac Kalyaneshvarananda Avt.
In Paschim Medinipur bhukti, at present there are 35 Ananda Marga schools and all are run by Kolkata group. The BP of this bhukti is Shrii Bhabani Sankar Ghosh who is very dedicated and devoted margii. So many times he was awarded as a best BP in DMS. He took the initial steps to build and develop all the 35 schools.
Sri Bhabani Sankar Ghosh has been a margii since 1969 and he has always been very ideological and honest. But he is not a “yes man” of Kolkata group. So Ac Kalyaneshvarananda Avt spread a rumour that the BP of Paschim Medinipur bhukti Sri Bhabaniji is a culprit and who collects money in the name of Ananda Marga schools but he takes this money for his own personal interest.
After this incident BP Bhabaniji submit all the receipt and the documents and as he maintains the account in a nice way so that he proved there was no no mistake or guilt from his side. But this allegation and rumour spread by Ac Kalyaneshvarananda Avt hurt the BP so much that he resigned from his BP post. Actually Kolkata group wanted to select a BP (in 2016 BP election) in Paschim Medinipur who would work for the Kolkata administration like a puppet. So this type of conspiracy was done against BP(G) of Paschim Medinipur.
But the margiis of Paschim Medinipur bhukti protested against this rumour spread by Ac Kalyaneshvarananda Avt, and they demanded justice. So the BP election in Paschim Medinipur bhukti has been postponed till now.

Namaskar,
Ananda Marga ideology guides us, "We should always respect our ideology if we are to become true human beings. The ideologist is a man who always acts according to his ideology. If by following the ideology, the older people become unhappy or condemn me, I will not care. If by following an ideology I die and die again, let it be. I will not care. I will stick to my ideology." (1)
Ideological transgressions by central Wts in Ananda Marga
Here is a comprehensive listing of margii rights and common ideological points that have been perpetrated in our Ananda Marga
1. The destruction of BP rights and imposition of the Fake BP Manual by Dada Rudrananda and Dada Sarvatmananda, supported by most central Wts of that pre-division era of AMPS like Dada Ramananda, Dada Keshavananda, Dada Parmeshvarananda and Dada Vandanananda etc.
2. Political expulsion invented and used by Dadas Sarvatmananda and Rudrananda.
3. The ruination of the ACB system by putting “yes men” on the post by both Dada Rudrananda and Dada Sarvatmananda.
4. The curtailment of margii rights with no scope to protest in writing or discussion etc. This was first enacted by Dada Sarvatmananda and later by Dada Rudrananda. Plus this was supported by most central Wts of that pre-division era of AMPS like Dada Ramananda, Dada Keshavananda, Dada Parmeshvarananda and Dada Vandanananda etc.
5. The agenda to exploit margiis by imposing dogmatic pilgrimages / tiirthas in Ananda Nagar, Kolkata, & Jamalpur. Once again, this was invented by Dada Sarvatmananda and quickly emulated by Dada Rudrananda - and supported by most central Wts of that pre-division era of AMPS like Dada Ramananda, Dada Keshavananda, Dada Parmeshvarananda, and Dada Vandanananda etc.
6. The introduction of the dogmatic mahaprayan of Sadguru Baba. This was supported by most central Wts of that pre-division era of AMPS like Dada Ramananda, Dada Keshavananda, Dada Parmeshvarananda and Dada Vandanananda etc .
7. The Bangalisation of Ananda Marga discourses spearheaded by Dada Sarvatmananda.
(a) Countless intentional scriptural distortions were done such as placing "Translated from the original Bengali" on the cover page of many Ananda Marga books, even if those discourses were given by Baba in English or Hindi.
(b) Only translating Bengali portions of Baba's holy DMC discourses which were given by Baba in three languages; this was ordered by Dada Sarvatmananda.
(c) H group prints and sells those defective books that were ruined by Bangalisation - by the order of Dada Rudrananda. ===all these A,B,C== have been supported by most central Wts of that pre-division era of AMPS like Dada Ramananda , Dada Keshavananda, Dada Parmeshvarananda and Dada Vandanananda etc .
8. The victimisation of countless innocent Ananda Margiis and Wts who spoke out. This was standard protocol by Dada Sarvatmananda and Dada Rudrananda, and this was supported by most central Wts of that pre-division era of AMPS like Dada Ramananda, Dada Keshavananda, Dada Parmeshvarananda, and Dada Vandanananda etc.
9. The physical attacks of Wts ordered by Dada Rudrananda and Dada Sarvatmananda.
10. Not recognising silent action as a fundamental right. This was enacted by both Dadas Rudrananda and Sarvatmananda. And this was supported by most central Wts of that pre-division era of AMPS like Dada Ramananda, Dada Keshavananda, Dada Parmeshvarananda and Dada Vandanananda etc .
11. The construction of dogmatic memorials and tiirthas to limit omnipresent Sadguru Baba to a particular land or place, such as Jamalpur, Tiljala, and Ananda Nagar. This was done by both Dadas Rudrananda and Sarvatmananda. This was supported by most central Wts of that pre-division era of AMPS like Dada Ramananda, Dada Keshavananda, Dada Parmeshvarananda and Dada Vandanananda etc
12. The insertion of the dogmatic Mahaprayan Divas into Caryacarya part 1 Appendix - approved of by all Central Committee purodhas - under the terror and threat of gang leader, Dada Sarvatmananda. This was and supported by most central Wts of that pre-division era of AMPS like Dada Ramananda , Dada Keshavananda, Dada Parmeshvarananda and Dada Vandanananda, and Didi Ananda Giita etc.
Ista and Adarsha are the most important things in life. And that is what our svastika flag represents. And that is our victory in life - not the victory of dogma.
Baba’s holy teachings
Ananda Marga ideology states, "Let those well-versed in ethics criticize me or praise me, as they so desire; let Lakśmii, the goddess of wealth, either be gracious enough (because of my activities) to reside in my house, or, if she prefers, go elsewhere; let death visit me today or decades later. It makes little difference to me. Wise people will never withdraw from the path of ideology, the path which they accept as their ideal." (2)
Ananda Marga ideology guides us, "What am I going to do regarding the mission of life? If logicians and philosophers condemn me, saying, “That is a very bad man,” let them say this. Or if, due to my movement towards my goal, a certain portion of society appreciates my action, let them appreciate it – it won’t affect me. I won’t be assailed by such appreciations. And if, due to my action, Lakśmii (Lakśmii is the mythological goddess of riches) comes and resides in my house, it is good. If Lakśmii says, “No, I will quit you forever, I won’t remain with you.” that is, you will have to suffer from poverty, let Lakśmii quit my house: And if, due to my course of action, due to my ideology, Pluto, that is, the god of death, comes and says, “I’ll take you,” let Pluto do it! I don’t care! Or if, due to my course of action, due to my ideology, I am forced to live here for an indefinite period, I am ready to live here. You know life becomes boring if one lives for a long period, but I am ready to undergo that boredom, that monotony, for the sake of my ideology." (3)
Hold the flag of ideology upright
Ananda Marga ideology states, "O' human beings, be established in the radiance of divinity and the splendour of valour and chivalry, because yours is the path of revolution. Your path is not the path of extra caution and scheduled movement. You are the traveller of a rugged path. You are travellers of an impregnable path. You have to march ahead proudly with the flag of Marga upright. You have no time to stagger or to look behind." (4)
Summary
The overall guideline is that we are to hold firm to the ideological fundamentals of Ananda Marga irrespective of any worldly situation. Whether we are praised, whether our friends try to lure us away, regardless of any circumstance we are to remain with ideology and never compromise. Thus in our organisational life we must take a firm stand against those who have undermined and contravened the ideological principles of Ananda Marga. We must not compromise with those few Wt Dadas who have altered Guru’s teachings etc. There is no other option.
Namaskar,
Sastaunga Pranam to Baba,
Brahmaprakash
Culprits
* All those many Wts in Centre those days were all complicit in the above acts. Because this is a long list and as many have since died, and many not, we are not enlisting all those names. But all were involved and willingly gave their support to such unideological misdeeds associated with the curtailment of margii rights etc.
If anyone compromises on points of ideology
If any person does not understand the fact that ideology is everything in life, then such a person is really just an infant in Ananda Marga - regardless of their worldly age. If such persons want to make a pact with unideological people, then they are going against Baba's fundamental principle of no compromise on points of ideology.
The issuing of Fake Ananda Vaniis two times per year. This was first enacted by Dadas Sarvatmananda and Rudrananda, and supported by most central Wts of that pre-division era of AMPS like Dada Ramananda, Dada Keshavananda, Dada Parmeshvarananda and Dada Vandanananda etc .

With my own strength I will not be able to get You
"Jyoti-ujjval pra'n'occhal tumi priyo..." (Prabhat Samgiita #2229)
Purport:
O' Parama Purusa, You are the Divine Controller of this vast universe. You are the brilliant effulgence - full of vitality & saturated & with the love. You are my Dearmost. By Your own glory You are glorified. You are ever-adorable. You are my Dearest, You are my Dearest.
O' Parama Purusa, in so many ways I want to bind You in the bond of affection, but I do not have the strength to catch hold of You. With my little strength and with whatever means I have, I try to catch You - but it is impossible for me. Instead I remain engrossed in my own self - unit "I". This 'unit I' is preventing me from coming close to You. Baba, please transform my 'I-feeling', make it Yours.
O' Parama Purusa, with my own strength I will not be able to get You. With the thread of the spider's web I will not be able to bind You and hold You. Please grace me, and allow Yourself to get held. This is my only request to You. Baba Please keep this request in Your mind.
O' Parama Purusa, in my mind & in my heart, I have deep longing for You - to have You. Please grant me this by Your causeless grace. Baba, please come in my shravan, manan, niddidhyasan, & dhyana and make me Yours...
Prout philosophy states, “The second inviolable principle is that people should not be forcibly converted from one religion to another. People will not leave a religion if it is able to guide them properly on the path of Dharma. However, if a religion has a narrow outlook or contains some defective teachings, such as supporting the caste system or oppressing the poor, then people will naturally become disillusioned with it. The followers of other religions will take advantage of these defects and forcibly convert them...”
Prout philosophy states, “Such incidents made the priests in eastern India realize that soon all the Brahmans would be converted to Islam. One priest called Devi Bar Ghatak from Mallálpur in the Birbhum district of Bengal, devised a strategy to prevent people being excommunicated. He argued that instead of excommunicating people who had been compelled to violate the tenets of Hinduism, they should be given the status of a special community within the Hindu religion. For example, families from which a girl had been abducted became one community, those who had been forced to take onions or beef became another community, etc. The members of these communities were permitted to marry amongst themselves and engage in normal social relations. This system was called the Melbandhan system, and it saved the Brahmin community of Bengal from conversion to Islam. Although the Kayastha community of Bengal did not accept the Melbandhan system, they accepted its inner spirit, and there after they did not excommunicate any of their members.” (1)
