Kinshuk: deceptive imitation

Note 1: This letter is only for those who have reverence for Sadguru Baba and try to learn and follow His Ananda Marga ideology.

Note 2: Without bhakti one will not be able to understand the substance of the below discussion.

Namaskar,

Every type of dress creates a certain impression - and that impression varies from place to place. For example, if someone is wearing a pant, shirt and turban in India then people will think that person is a Sikh. And if that same person is in the ​middle part of the ​US they will think he is a member of Bin Laden's team, or the Taliban, or Isis, or some type of terrorist group from Afghanistan. And they might attack and kill that person. Here the point is that every type of dress comes with a preconception.

​

Every Ananda Margii has seen numerous photos of Baba on wearing a certain type of kurta (shirt). These photos are commonly on display on the puja table etc. So when margiis see someone else sitting on the dais wearing that same type of kurta, trying to imitate Baba, that that looks awful.

By imitating someone, the imitator seeks one of two things. Either the person wants to cheat others or mock the person they are imitating. Many cheats or bandits use police uniform to go and rob. They want to give the impression that they are the real police. Likewise, many thieves use the garb of sadhu to cheat others. So one's dress creates an impression.

This type of kurta is available everywhere in Bengal​. If Kinshuk wears this type of kurta and walks around the streets of Bengal or Kolkata etc then that does not matter. But now Kinshuk is using this kurta on the dais, and already margiis associate that type of kurta with Baba. By this way Kinshuk's purpose is to create the impression that he is sitting on the seat of Baba on the dais etc. i.e. that he (Kinshu) is above human. This is the type of hypocrisy intolerable.


Conclusion

Whatever may be, Kinshuk should not use that dress on dais and pose as Baba during his propaganda tour. Kinshuk is a hypocrite. He is posing as Baba by using that shirt on the DMS podium. Anyone who has bhakti will not appreciate this action of Kinshuk.​ It is a kind of hypocritical imitation.

Namaskar,
In Him,

Special type of self-care

Ananda Marga Caryacarya says, "The practices given below are prescribed only for specific diseases. Therefore, they are to be performed only after consultation with an a'ca'rya."

"Vistrta sna'na or vya'paka sna'na: A bathtub is most convenient, but  if this is not available, an earthen trough will suffice. If this is not available either, a wet towel can be used, soaking it repeatedly in water. Fill the bathtub with cold water, and sit in it undressed so that  the area from the navel down remains submerged. Keep your feet dry and out of the tub. The area from the neck to the navel should be kept covered with a shirt or dry cloth. The crown of the head and the back of  the head should be kept covered with a wet towel."

Ananda Marga Caryacarya says, "Now take another towel and rub the area from the right side of the abdomen to the groin seven or eight times. Do likewise on the left-hand side and horizontally from right to left and left to right. You should make sure that the towel on the head remains wet."

"After this, wipe the abdomen, hands and thighs and take a full bath.  If this is not possible, then leave the tub wearing a shirt."

Ananda Marga Caryacarya says, "This should be practised behind closed doors. In the absence of a bathtub or an earthen trough, a wet towel may be wrapped around the areas to be bathed, but in order to compensate, cold water must be poured constantly over the towel, and the towel which is to be used for the massage must be kept wet. After vya'paka sna'na, the thighs, pubic area and abdomen should be warmed with a dry towel."

"Before and after this bath one should not eat, in order to allow the stomach to rest." (1)
