Baba
Our ‘great’ Dada Vijayananda ji
Note: There is a dogma in the general society that if someone dies then people do not analyse the wrongs of the deceased. They think that since that person has already left this world then nothing should be said about their misdeeds etc. But our Guru Shrii Shrii Anandamurti ji says that history must be taught and studied. If history is forgotten, people will commit the same blunders over and over again. In that spirit, we are obliged to present this historical account of someone who has died, as well as some who are still alive.

Namaskar,
Overview: This letter contains two historical documents issued by an undivided AMPS Central in 1995. The first contains the English and Bengali versions, and the second scan is the Hindi translation.
Scare margiis into keeping mum
The following circular (1995) was widely distributed by Centre with the aim of scaring margiis and issuing a strong warning not to talk about scriptural distortion, Bengalization in AMPS etc. Verily, this circular was an open threat intended to create fear and terror in the minds of margiis.
The enlisted so-called enquiry committee members were appointed to find out the facts about:
(A) who is making a hue and cry about the Bengalization of AM books;
(B) which margiis and Wts are opposing the Publisher’s Note in all AM books that falsely proclaimed, “Translated from the original Bengali”, even when the discourses were originally given in English;
(C) which margiis are raising their voice against the distortion of Baba's books;
(D) which margiis are alerting others that there is groupism in AMPS.

Threatening letter to margiis
The sole focus of this circular was to produce the requisite fear to keep margiis mum and set the stage to wrongfully expel those dharmikas who were raising the banner against scriptural distortion to AM books.
About enquiry commission
This enquiry commission held its meetings at various reportings and did some prep work to expel those Wts and margiis who opposed scriptural distortion to Baba’s books. To this end, the first expulsion was done on the 30th November 1995. Thereafter, all those margiis who were raising their voice against Bengalization were threatened, punished, or had their post or spot on the ACB snatched away etc. They were also debarred from performing social service. These aforementioned so-called punishments are wholly against the fundamentals of Caryacarya.

By this approach, Centre’s singular aim was to mercilessly crush those whistleblowers opposing the distortion of Sadguru Baba's discourses. Let us not forget that those days all the various factions and groups were working in unison under one umbrella. Those in Centre thought they were well on their way to being victorious. History has proven otherwise.
Main henchmen of Dada Sarvatmananda & Dada Vijayananda
Here then are those henchmen selected and placed on that so-called enquiry commission:
Acarya Raghunath jii
Acarya Kishan Sood jii
Acarya Pratapaditya jii
Acarya Amulya Ratan Sarangii jii
Shrii Mangal Biharii jii
Ac Tadbhavananda Avt
Ac Jagadiishvarananda Avt
Ac Vicitrananda Avt
The above listed persons were entrusted with the task of rooting out all whistleblowers raising points about the distortion of scripture, groupism, and other ills.
Alert: false propaganda & lies
Ananda Vanii states, "The purport of Dharma Sádhaná is to look upon every person, every object of this universe as one integral entity. To jeopardize the unity of the human race by creating factions is not the purpose of Dharma. Those who encourage vested interests survive on the mental weaknesses of people and their dissensions, and that is why they are scared of the spread of the ideals of Dharma and exhibit their intolerance towards it in all sorts of immoral ways, such as abuse, false propaganda and lies. People must not be cowed by this, they have got to march ahead. It is to be borne in mind that hindrances are beneficial to human beings on the path of righteousness and to continue to fight against them is what is sádhaná." (1)
The sole focus of this below circular was to produce the requisite fear to keep margiis mum and set the stage to wrongfully expel those dharmikas who were raising the banner against scriptural distortion to AM books.

Authored by Haratmananda
This entire circular (above & below) was authored by Ac Haratmananda Avt on 13 June 1995 and made under the order of the Central Committee on 25 May 1995. But all know that Ac Sarvatmananda and Dada Vijayananda were the key forces in Centre those days.
Chief aim of threatening circular
The main thrust of this circular was to (a) create the requisite fear to keep margiis voiceless and mum, (b) set the stage for the wrongful expulsion of those dharmikas who were raising the banner against scriptural distortion of AM books, and (c) continue the Bangalization of Sadguru Baba’s books.

Baba says: “Go ahead with courage”
Ananda Vanii says, "The humans of today are possessed of spirited intellect and accomplished wisdom. They are keen to advance with rapid step shattering the shackles of dogmas. They will no longer be entrapped by the illusion of opportunism. The rays of the crimson dawn of a new humanity on the eastern horizon have started weaving textures of colours on their eyelids and in the subtle recesses of their minds. As for those who have been dreaming of keeping humanity imprisoned by dogmas, their days are numbered; their blissful dreams are being shattered to pieces. I call upon all enlightened people and say: “Go ahead with courage. The humanity has been awaiting you. Establish it in the excellence and grandeur of glory.”" (2)
In Him,
Amar Ganguli
Confusion about Dada ji
People should know our Dada Vijayananda’s legacy (died July 2002). Dada Vijayananda played a central role in the ruination of Baba’s original Hindi discourses. Those blatant distortions to the Hindi discourses were all done under Dada ji’s direct command.
http://anandamarganewsbulletin.blogspot.com
How Hindi discourses ruined
Here’s how Baba’s Hindi discourses were ruined. When Baba gave discourses in Hindi - such as in Patna, Hazaribagh, Ranchi, Tatanagar, Varanasi, Allahabad, Kanpur, Lucknow, Agra, Meerut, Delhi, Hisar, Chandigarh, Jammu, Srinagar, Jaipur, Kota, Raipur, Bhopal, Sambalpur, Nagpur, Ahmedabad, Mumbai, Bettiah, Hajipur, Muzaffarpur, Bhagalpur, Saharsa, Darbhanga, Purnia, Jamalpur, Anand Nagar etc. - then those Hindi discourses were not published by transcribing the cassettes. Rather, to make a Hindi book from Baba's Hindi discourses, the following steps were taken:
a) Baba's Hindi discourses were translated into Bengali.
b) Then that Bengali translation was retranslated back into Hindi. The outcome was that this retranslated Hindi version no longer matched what Baba actually spoke. This type of distortion is called the "Bengalisation of Hindi discourses".
c) Then that Bengalised Hindi translation was published in the form of a Hindi book.
d) So the fact is that the Hindi books were not made directly from Baba's Hindi discourses.
e) To make matters worse, in the Hindi book of original Hindi discourses, a false statement was written on the publisher's page – “from the original Bengali”.
f) By this approach, most of the Hindi books of the organization have been ruined.
g) Whenever Baba gave discourses in the Hindi language, most of the Hindi books were not made directly by transcribing the cassettes. Instead, they went through the above described process of Bangalisation. This type of gross and blatant injustice has been done to Baba's Hindi and English discourses.
h) Baba delivered the majority of His discourses in Hindi. And the ruination of those Hindi discourses had a negative, cascading effect. Because that tainted Hindi discourse was used as the basis to make the English version of those discourses. So that means all those English discourses / books were ruined as well.
i) Bear in mind that this process of Bangalisation was also done when Baba gave a discourse in English. So when Baba spoke in English most of the time that discourse was directly translated into Bengali, which was then branded as the master version. Then they retranslated that so-called master Bengali version back into English. And that retranslated English version is what was printed in the English books. So what Baba originally spoke in English is not what is printed in the English editions.
This was all done by Dada Vijayananda.

B group propaganda
B group leaders made this AI generated photo to enhance his prestige. They also superimposed / photoshopped some children into the photo as well. Supporters want to project Dada Vijayananda’s image as someone divine, but actually he was something else.

How some struggle in sadhana
Ananda Marga ideology says, "Most people are well acquainted with the fourth state of mind (eka'gra). In this state the human mind sometimes becomes exalted with divine sweetness; and sometimes becomes as debased as an infernal creature. Sometimes it keeps company with good people and takes a resolve never to tell lies, accept bribes, get intoxicated, or become characterless; and sometimes it thinks that honesty and virtue are sheer folly, for happiness lies in falsehood, taking bribes, stealing, promiscuity, and the like. The mind is continuously tossed between good and bad. But when the practice of sa'dhana' inspires one to accept shreya (path of benevolence) as one’s ideology, one attains the true state of eka'gra bhu'mi. In this state waves upon waves of citta emerge."
Sha'ntaditao tulyapratyayao cittasyaeka'girata'parin'a'ma
Ananda Marga ideology says, "Every newcomer to the path of sa'dhana' suffers from a lack of concentration of mind. After repeating the is't'a mantra a couple of times hundreds of undesirable thoughts flood the mind. The newcomer thinks, “I am unable to attain the One on whom I meditate, and instead am pestered by those objects I do not want.” The hand counts the beads, the lips mutter the name of the is't'a, but the mind roams in the filth of hell. When all the undesirable waves are removed from the mind, one blissful wave begins to flow, and the sa'dhaka attains the state of eka'gra bhu'mi." (1)
Note: If in sadhana a person is not one-pointed (eka'gra means "one-pointed") it means they are not repeating their mantra in a proper manner. It means they are lacking sincerity and regularity of practice.

Why only individual salvation
Ananda Marga philosophy states, “To continue the flow of His divine play, it is not desirable that all entities of the vast universe should attain the Supreme stance at one time; neither is it the natural process. Thus human beings must strive to attain individual salvation. If Parama Puruśa is pleased, they will surely succeed in their efforts.” (1)
Note: Many things can be done collectively like bhajans, sadhana, meal, bath, and kiirtan etc. These can all be collective endeavours. But not everything in this universe can be done collectively. For instance, collective salvation is not possible. Because then creation will cease to exist and Parama Purusa does not want creation to end. Those who are fortunate will use their free will to do sadhana. Unit beings will get salvation on an individual, case by case basis, not collectively.
