Baba
Circus in AN: lowly Wts
Note: This letter is only for committed margiis. Due to lack of bhakti some may not understand.
Namaskar,
At the recent New Year’s DMS at Ananda Nagar, B group turned our dharmic event into a circus-like atmosphere. Those who are enamoured with pseudo-culture might enjoy it; but, for dharmikas it is all quite painful to behold.

Avadhutas not doing their job
When avadhuta diiksa is given, then Sadguru Baba says how these avadhutas are going to propagate the gospel of neo-humanism throughout the world. The central idea is that Wts are dedicated for spreading the gospel of Ananda Marga teachings to everyone across the entire planet.
Sadguru Baba says, “Remember, until every person in the universe accepts the Ananda Marga ideology, you have no opportunity to rest.” (Caryacarya - 3, Miscellaneous, point #6)
So the first and foremost tenet in the life of any avadhuta is to exemplify and project Ananda Marga ideology - everywhere, all the time. So naturally, at our own DMS programme, we would fully expect to see the propagation of dharma in full force. But unfortunately, that is not the case.

Just a circus act
As we know, everything that occurs at DMS is done under the auspices and direction of top Wts and their stooges. They have control over every aspect of the DMS. And now look below and see what B group Wts have authorized. Instead of guiding our youths into dharmic and sentient practices, they have allowed our tender, precious youths to be swayed by silly, pseudo-culture endeavours. Again, those immersed in pseudo-culture might like this sort of thing, but for sadhakas and bhaktas of Shrii Shrii Anandamurti ji, this is an utter betrayal.
Sadly, the above is an expose how B group DMS organisers have enabled our own youths to be lured into the fashion of pseudo-culture. They failed to guide and goad our youths unto the path of dharma.

The tragedy is that Sadguru Baba has given all the requisite teachings for humanity, and the very ones most responsible for propagating those teachings, i.e. our avadhutas, have zero interest in this dharmic endeavour. We need a youth movement in our AMPS - we are an aging society - yet our avadhutas are allowing our own youths to slide through our fingertips by encouraging them in ridiculous, materialistic shenanigans.
Conclusion
The tantra of Ananda Marga is dharma, and our avadhutas must be the first ones to uphold this standard. Otherwise, what is the use of their walking around in saffron garb. It is shocking what has transpired at this DMS. Rather than calling it “dharma maha samelan” they should call it “pseudo-culture maha sammelan”.
Ananda Marga ideology states, “Bear in mind that people may be harmed or misled by even a small weakness or defect in the conduct of an ácárya. Just as it is the duty of a father to educate his children properly by his good conduct, an ácárya or ácáryá should always instruct by his or her exemplary actions and words.” (2)
In Him,
Viyda Guha
Ananda Marga ideology states, “Those who have the responsibility to show the path to others should be of superlative character with the most refined conduct. They and their followers must move constantly towards all-round development and shreya [ultimate spiritual attainment]. Persons who teach such well-regulated behaviour to others by their own conduct are called ácáryas.” (3)
Ananda Marga ideology states, “The ácárya should give direction and guidance in every work, big or small. When he or she is to impart any duty to anyone, he should be strict, strong and exact, like a diamond.” (4)

I only depend on You
"Ámi tomákei jáni shudhu tomákei jáni..." (Prabhat Samgiita #0907)
Purport:
Parama Purusa, only You I know, no one else. By Your grace I only depend on You. You are my shelter. Since the creation of my mind, from the very beginning I have been with You. Now I am with You, and I know I will remain with You forever. By Your krpa, I understand, believe, and realise this eternal truth in the deep core of my heart.
Unfortunately, I started running after the degrading attractions by the pull of maya. In this mad dash for mundane pleasures, I got swept off my feet by the flooded river of tamasika attractions - going towards who knows where. In spite of that, by Your compassion, in an isolated corner of my inner self, always I am singing Your songs and chanting Your name. The subterranean flow of my mental river always cascades with the water of bhakti. It is Your causeless and infinite kindness.
Since the early dawn, I have remained absorbed in a stream of a dream about Your kindness. But now I am rowing my boat with a firm hand on the path of dharma, by remembering Your vanii. Your ideological teachings are my fuel for moving along the path of life divine and reaching the Supreme Entity. Friends, family, money, wealth, prestige, power, and post are all ephemeral. Such things are shelterless, and depending on them is ignorance. They cannot provide me a base.
Baba, You fulfill all my longings as well as all of my physical, psychic, and spiritual needs. Besides You there is no one whom I can rely upon. In this universe only You are mine...

Eye-opening fact about AN
Namaskar,
It is common knowledge that wherever Baba went and toured for DMC etc He openly ordered all margiis / Wts in general darshan to (a) construct a jagrti and a Baba Quarter, (b) start a press, (c) create a master unit, and (d) open new schools etc. To further accentuate this, Baba would refuse to take His breakfast until the local Ananda Marga newspaper was given to Him to read. This was the case with all places He visited for DMC etc, including Ananda Nagar. But, other than in Ananda Nagar, those talks were not recorded. And that is the reason why people forgot about how Baba was ordering all important centers and places to build up such projects.
About this, whatever Baba spoke in AN was meticulously recorded and printed in the book, whereas this was not done in other places. And, slowly over time, some got confused on this point and thought that Baba only wanted to build Ananda Nagar. This type of half-truth propaganda campaign was going on such that now this dogma that only Ananda Nagar should be built up is in full swing.
With this mistaken perspective, they thought that Baba only had Ananda Nagar on His radar, and other places were off the track.
This fact that Baba gave orders to build up all important centers and places can be verified by asking those margis and Wts who were present those days. But after a few hundred years, it will not be possible to verify the facts in this manner. Rather, people will only be relying upon written records and audio recordings that indicate that only Ananda Nagar should be built up and developed. By this misnomer, the whole AM society of this entire globe will be exploited forever.
In Him,
Parakastha
Note: In those units where Baba could not go, in reported He allotted the duty to Wts and margiis to go to those places and build those aforementioned projects.
