Ananda Marga News Bulletin: Look what this WT is doing

Baba

Look what this WT is doing

Namaskar,

Recently, one avadhuta attended a ceremony led by non-margiis. We should see how far Dada ji’s participation was in accordance with AM ideology.

(a) Dada ji was extended an invitation and he accepted a leading position in their ritual of idol worship of a mythological deity.

Dada ji blows the conch

(b) That religious group gave Dada ji one of the premier roles in the ceremony: Dada ji blew the conch loudly to mark the start of this idol worship / ritualistic gathering.

(c) At the ceremony, they were all raising the jai slogan for the mythological deity. And Dada j also pumped his fist into the air, alternately blowing the conch in performing this idol worship.

(d) Here below is Dada ji giving his full participation in this idol worship. See Dada ji standing in his full gown at the very start of the procession. It is his blowing of the conch that signals the start of this occasion.

In the above photo, see Dada ji standing in his full gown at the head of the idol worship procession, blowing the conch to begin this event - all done for the glory of the mythological deity. As you can see in the above photo, they have hoisted the idol of the deity up on their shoulders.

Conclusion: sinful / pápa

(e) Engaging in this idol worship dogma clearly goes against the spirit of what it means to be a Wt, and outrightly transgresses the code of non-compromising strictness and faith regarding the sanctity of Ista. Specifically, Baba warns us not to engage in idol worship as Dada ji is doing in this ritualistic idol worship ceremony as it is completely sinful and adharmic.

Ananda Marga Caryacarya states, “In principle, you do not support the philosophy of those who, in the name of worship of God, indulge in idolatry, do not participate in their ceremonies.” (1)

Ananda Marga Caryacarya states, “Those who in the name of the beginningless, endless, formless Brahma worship idols, are indulging in deliberate slander. You must not give indulgence to this type of Mahapápa (great sin).” (2)

(f) From top to bottom, attending and playing a leading role in this idol worship ceremony is a very bad look for Dada ji, and sets a very poor example for how an avadhuta should conduct himself.

Empty inside

(g) Next Baba points out that those engaging in external rituals in the name of spirituality are masking and concealing the emptiness they have inside. That is why they feel compelled to make this external show.

Ananda Marga Caryacarya states, “Dharma (spirituality) is an internal thing. One who is hollow within conceals it in ringing brass bells, beating drums and making noises all around.” (3)
