Baba
Degeneration of Angika leader
Namaskar,
Following a sentient diet is a key tenet for leading a spiritual life. As Ananda Margiis, we all know that onion and garlic are támasik (extremely bad for the mind etc).
Now see below what Chandranarayana ji is doing. As many may know, Chandranarayana ji is the longtime leader of Angika samaj, and he was regularly a key person in samaj meetings in front of Sadguru Baba. Indeed, years ago when he became a margii and Prout activist. Unfortunately, since those days he has dropped a few notches, gotten involved in caste politics etc and become the leader of the domestic animal herd caste, among other things.
To the point at hand: Just recently, he hosted a celebration and was serving onion and garlic and other static foods to his friends, colleagues, and guests etc. The whole atmosphere was filled with the smell of static foods whereby margiis could not tolerate the odor and had to leave.
Going against Sixteen Points is completely unbecoming of a Prout leader. Our leaders must be disciplined in all points of conduct etc. Best is for dedicated Prout leaders to celebrate with sentient food, otherwise they are no different from those in the general society who celebrate with támasik items like meat and wine.
This is a clear-cut case how even a good person will slowly degenerate if they are not strict in Sixteen Points.

Note: Thereafter when margiis sought out Chandranarayana ji to ask for a donation for social service projects, they were shoed away.

Ananda Marga philosophy states, “Static food: Food which is harmful for the mind and may or may not be good for the body is static. Onion, garlic, wine, stale and rotten food, meat of large animals such as cows and buffaloes, fish, eggs, etc., are static.” (Yoga Psychology, Food, Cells, Physical and Mental Development)
