Hypocrisy of Vimalananda
Namaskar,
Look at what is going on here.
#1: One Wt (Raghuramananda) posted a fake quote and attributed it to
Sadguru Baba.
#2: Seeing this, various margiis voiced their opposition to this
bogus quote.
#3: Then Vimalananda jumped in and wrongly defended that bogus
quote.
The irony here is that the chief duty of our Wts is to propagate
Baba's teachings, but here the opposite is going on.
in Him,
Gopal

Mantrajapananda's demotion or spa vacation?
Namaskar,
Recently, Rudrananda publicly rebuked his chief stooge Mantrajapananda. But there is much more going on behind the scenes. Here we examine what really occurred.
The so-called punishment
Due to pressure of circumstances discussed further down below, Rudrananda made a public rebuke of Mantrajapananda. Please read the following:
- Mantrajapananda was (a) "demoted" from his post as GTS (Global Training Secretary), (b) given the posting of HPMG global, and (c) stripped of his acaryaship and purodhaship.
But no one should be befooled. Nothing serious was done by Rudrananda against Mantrajapananda. This is all just one show. First off, Mantrajapananda's avadhutaship was not seized. That means Mantrajapananda is still entitled to walk around in his saffron garb from head to toe. Had his avadhutaship been seized, then Mantrajapananda would have been forced to wear the white dress of a brahmacarii. Then everyone would see first-hand that Mantrajapananda was demoted, and it would have been humiliating. But since he is one of Rudrananda's pets, Mantrajapananda was spared of this public shaming of having to wear a white lungi. Instead, Rudrananda seized Mantrajapananda's purodhaship and acaryaship. And those have no real consequences as nobody cares whether Mantrajapananda is a purodha or not, and by taking away his acaryaship it just means that Mantrajapananda cannot initiate anyone for a short period. Neither of those things affect his prestige. So for all practical purposes, Mantrajapananda is able to keep his kingly status by keeping his avadhutaship.
Next Rudrananda advised Mantrajapananda not to come to India for one year, especially during DMS or RDS because Wts and margiis will oppose Mantrajapananda. To avoid this, Rudrananda personally told Mantrajapananda, "You can come and meet me and pay your monthly dues (taxes), but don't come to India and attend DMS or RDS." This is the black pact that they made. But that is no punishment at all. Because it means that Mantrajapananda is allowed to live in his grand kingdom in Davao, Philippines where he has huge bank accounts and all the amenities to lead a luxurious life.
So the fact that Mantrajapananda was relieved of his post as GTS holds no real-world implications. If Mantrajapanada had been forced to physically vacate his post and hand over all his funds and accounts to someone else that would have been meaningful. But instead, Rudrananda essentially ordered Mantrajapananda to remain in his kingdom. It is akin to telling a corrupt king to keep all his wealth and remain in his palace surrounded by all his riches and servants.
So ultimately, no real punishment was meted out to Mantrajapananda. Rudrananda has ensured his sycophant will undergo no hardship.
Why public statement was made
The question remains that when so many in Rudrananda's inner circle suffer from debased dealings, what led to Rudrananda taking any type of public stand against Mantrajapananda - even if it was just for show. And here is the answer.
Mantrajapananda has a long history of alleged sexual misconduct with female trainees. And one such trainee referred to here as "SR Didi" was manipulated by and abused by Mantrajapananda for years while she was in the Philippines. SR Didi has since lodged public complaints against Mantrajapananda. Those led to no charges as Rudrananda's appointed kangaroo tribunal acquitted Mantrajapananda on all accounts.
Still the question stands, why then did Rudrananda take any public stand against Mantrajapananda. Well, SR Didi has been staying in Berlin sector of late and the mass of margiis and Wts including SS Shubhatmananda have rallied around her. Of course, SS Dada has his own baggage and no such shakti to really stand up to Rudrananda, but the margiis of Berlin sector make one statement that rattled Rudrananda. The Berlin sector margiis threatened and forbid Rudrananda from coming to Berlin sector if some steps were not taken against Mantrajapananda for his misdealing with SR Didi. And every year Rudrananda has been visiting Berlin sector during the summer retreat to collect his booty from the sector, and he does not want to lose this opportunity. So it is for this reason that Rudrananda took this toothless public stand against Mantrajapananda. Rudrananda did this to appease Berlin sector margiis so that he could continue to visit there and exploit the sector. All the while, the culprit Mantrajapananda is allowed to lead his luxurious, indolent live in Davao where he is the king of his own castle.
Conclusion
Rudrananda is cold and calculated in all his dealings. Nothing he does is apparent on the surface; there is always an underlying strategy. And Rudrananda's power depends on keeping his ring of stooges alive: Madhuvratananda / Danvrata, Satyashrayananda, Nabhatiitananda, Raganugananda, Puspendrananda, Svarupananda, Rakeshananda, Ramendrananda, Citsvarupananda, Mantrajapananda, Kalyanmitrananda, Mantracaetanyananda, Sampurnananda, Vishvadevananda, among others. Beyond that, the mass of Wts are not favour of Rudrananda but not yet ready to rise up.
So Rudrananda's crown rests solely on his stooges. He needs them and that is why he will never do anything to jeopardize them. And that is why Mantrajapananda was rebuked with a pillow and not with a sword. I think now the situation is clear to all.
in Him,
Ramendu
