Baba
Example: AV-8 book ruined #5
Namaskar,
When sadhakas pick-up one of Baba’s books they expect to be reading Baba’s words. This is especially the case when Baba delivered the discourse in English and the text is also in English. Yet, as is shown below, we are not given Baba’s exact words - but rather something else in the name of Baba. Verily, that is not the direct speech of Parama Purusa Baba. That is the deception at play. And that is the heart of the issue that is addressed below.
Here below is a discourse was given by Sadguru Baba in English, but Tilajala Publications did not print it in an accurate manner, even though this is the English edition and Baba’s audio was given in English. In the below AV book scan, all the red underlined words are not Baba’s direct terms. Rather Dada Sarvatmananda and Tiljala Publications polluted the book by inserting their own words.

Please see the below scan and start listening from 4:08 minute mark. The red underlined words are all garbage.
You will not find these words in Bábá’s audio. This is just gross adulteration.

In just 4 lines of the discourse there are 30 wrong words that have been inserted into the printed text which are not present in Baba’s original audio

Rudrananda reprints & sells same distorted, altered books
The discourses Tiljala Publications (TP) published in the Ananda Vacanamrtam series are riddled with gross discrepancies and errors. This is readily apparent when comparing TP's printed AV books with what Baba spoke, i.e. the original sound files of those same discourses. And that deviation is the focal point of this letter. Bábá has spoken one thing, whereas they have printed something entirely different. Whatever Bábá spoke, they distorted and printed in the English and Hindi books. Unfortunately, Rudrananda's group reprints and sells in their own group name the same distorted, altered Baba books. And they have no interest in fixing the discourses.

Conclusion
The time has come for margiis and Wts to remake all of Sadguru Baba’s book using the sound files of Baba’s discourses.
In Him,
Prafulla Ghosh
Note: Today we could only do this much so tomorrow we will do more.
