== MAHAPRAYAN DIVAS (MPD): EXTINCT LIKE DINOSAURS ==
Namaskar,
Nowadays hardly anyone is falling into the trap of Mahaprayan dogma.
Because we all feel that Baba is eternally along with us-- residing in our
hearts. This is the way of each and every Ananda Margii and indeed this is
the way of devotion. So by His infinite cosmic grace all are moving along
on His blissful path, keeping Him in our heart. In this era of crude
materialism He has blessed us with the divine gift of spirituality: The
feeling that He is always along with us.
Still-- with their selfish agenda-- some top group B leaders are still
trying to impose their Mahaprayan dogma. Altogether it is a losing battle.
Step by step it is becoming obsolete; now they have only 1 or 2 unfortunate
followers, no more than that.
Of course the Rudrananda faction has their own dogmatic ploys but
Sarvatmananda and his B team are the proud fathers of the dogmatic
Mahaprayan program. This is their brain-child.
Because in truth this so-called Mahaprayan does not have any logical legs
to stand upon. It is just the creation of one very dogmatic type of
so-called leader who did like this in order to make people more attached to
his so-called holy land of Tiljala. And he tried to limit Baba to one land,
or one place or even one building in Bengal. So from top to bottom everyone
is seeing this dogma of Mahaprayan Divas (MPD) for what it is-- A Dogma.
In their negative, disjointed approach of following the dogma of
Mahaprayan, a few persons give the logic that when Baba has taken human
form, then that means that He also has gone away. Like this a few certain
persons talk.
However, by Baba's divine grace we have hundreds of discourses where He has
beautifully described and praised the divine advent of Mahasambhuti. This
is commonly discussed in countless numbers of Baba's talks.
And never has Baba told or given any significance of His going away. Because,
how can He say 'going away' when in true sense He does not go?
Every Margii knows that BABA has taken one special human form as
Mahasambhuti. By that way-- by His grace-- we have come in contact with
Him. And that form of Mahasambhuti is the form of Guru. And that form still
continues to have a deeply significant role in our day to day life, each
and every moment.
Because for us, for Ananda Margiis, Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji is our Guru.
And in the life we feel His grace. And in order to have a link with His
devotees and teach His philosophy, Baba created His physical form. And when
He has felt there is no longer any need to continue to maintain the
physical form, then He just maintains His internal link with us through His
ota yoga & He is eternally residing along with us.
So He is the Divine Eternal Entity who is ever-present in our mind and
heart-- eternally showering the blessing of His varabhaya mudra. So His
divine advent is just His special grace and we should not compare Him with
the likes of an ordinary mortal human being. The form of Mahasambhuti
should not be compared with an ordinary human body. Those who are doing
like this have missed the boat of spirituality-- just they are sunk in
their own dogma.
For all these reasons, we cannot accept that that form is gone. Because we
see Him in that divine form always. We relate our entire existence with Him
with the help of that very form. And with that form we visualize Him in our
mind-- taking help of His photo.
In that way we do dhyana and sadhana of that form. So the form of
Mahasambhuti is very significant for all of us. And that form remains the
source of all inspiration. And by the help of that very form, doing dhyana
of that very form, one day by His grace we will become one with Him.
If we see in the treasure of Prabhat Samgiita, there are hundreds of songs
in which Baba talks about His presence. But He never writes any song about
His leaving the body of mahasambhuti.
Any devotee can think that Baba does not like to propagate this idea of
leaving. Because if we think that He left, it means we are comparing that
magnanimous personality as an ordinary human being. What right have we to
think, that He has left?
For those who do not understand or believe the greatness of Shrii Shrii
Anandamurtiji and do not believe that He is Taraka Brahma, in that
situation if they think that Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji passed away on 21st
October 1990, then by seeing this we feel pity on them. Because they could
not receive the grace of Lord. So they are ignorant.
And-- not only that-- but they are contradicting themselves by saying like
that. Because on the one side they are celebrating His presence by doing
Guru Sakash, Dhyana, Japa, Guru Puja, raising the Jai slogan, etc, and the
next moment they are chanting the dogma of MPD and telling that He is gone.
The top of all idea is that devotees and God cannot keep distant from one
another. Without the other they will die. So neither God can leave devotees
and devotees cannot leave God. Then how He can go. He cannot. By His divine
grace Mahasambhuti Baba lives in the devotee's heart.
If those following Mahaprayan really think that their Lord is just one
ordinary mortal then that is different thing but our relation is not
ordinary one. His presence is beyond time, space, and person. In this life
and in future and always and up till eternity He is remaining along with
us. Then how He can go.
Those who believe that Taraka Brahma has advented, by that way they think
that Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji is Taraka Brahma. Then surely He is not one
human being.
In contrast when they start thinking about October 21 (Mahaprayan), then
they quickly want to forget their faith and the feeling that Shrii Shrii
Anandamurtiji is Taraka Brahma. In place of that, they start thinking and
viewing Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji as just one ordinary human being. So this
is that stagnancy of the Mahaprayan dogma.
And those few people who are stuck in this dogma live a life of
contradiction. Because on the one hand they sometimes comfort themselves by
thinking that Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji is Taraka Brahma. And that He will
help them solve their problems etc. Some moments they are thinking in this
proper and positive direction.
Then in order to clutch onto their Mahaprayan dogma, the next moment they
start thinking that Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji is an ordinary mortal.
If they will think in all the cases that Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji is
Taraka Brahma, then and then alone their eyes will open and they will see
and understand their mistake and they will realise that He is not gone that
that Baba is there inside the heart-- inside the mind. And that He remains
all the time in Vrindaban, of the devotees mind-Guru Cakra.
Baba says, "Vrnda'vanam parityajya pa'damekam na gaccha'mi..." (PS 4425)
"I am always eternally present in Vrindavan, in the hearts of devotees.
That is the Guru cakra. I do not go even a little away from that.
I am eternally present along with the devotees."
So Baba is residing in everyone's heart-- that is where He remains.
"Dura't sudure tadiha'ntike ca..."
Baba says, "Only the one who looks into the inner most recesses of oneself
can realise the Supreme Entity.... the bhaktas or devotees say, 'He is
near, so near that the distance is immeasurable.' Those who have eyes to
see, see that Parama Purus'a is in the core of their hearts; He is within
the very existence of each and every entity, so there is no necessity of
moving about in search of Him. He resides within the very "I- feeling" of
everyone." (AMIWL)
Namaskar,
Shivadayal
Note 1: Those who try to limit the Supreme Entity are wallowing in...
"Vya'pitvm ca...dine"
"The Entity which is all-pervading who is established in the grandeur of
being the Witnessing Entity of everyone, about that divine Entity if I say
about Him that on this place He ate butter and on this place He took bath,
telling all these tales if I bind that all-pervading Entity to one
particular land, country, or place, by propagating the greatness of this
holy land or that holy land, if by this I ruin His all-pervasiveness then
that is not a virtuous deed, but rather sin." (AVM-11, p. 30)
Note 2: MPD IS GROUPIST PLOY OF SARVATMANANDJI
This entire dogmatic affair of Mahaprayan is nothing but the brainchild of
negative groupist leader Sarvatmanandji. It is just His crude ploy for
power. And now nearly everyone is understanding the negativity of
Sarvatmanandji's approach.
Note 3: MAHAPRAYAN DOGMA BEING DELETED
MPD IS OBSOLETE LIKE THE DINOSAURS
The current administration for their own reasons has their eyes set of
deleting the Mahaprayan chapter from the fake appendix of Caryacarya part
1. Means in October '90, Sarvatmanandji rallied people with threats and
money to put this crude appendix into Baba's divine publication. So they
did like that. But now other groupists like Rudranandji and company realise
that this was just another one of Sarvatmananda's crude swindles for power.
That is why they are now rejecting Mahaprayan and motioning to remove it
from the book. And margiis with their devotional heart are also thinking
that the dogmatic appendix of Mahaprayan should be removed. That is why it
is clear that the day of this fake Mahaprayan dogma are extremely limited.
Any moment this crude MPD function will be totally obsolete like the
dinosaurs.
********************************************
True Even Today
Baba says, "This predominantly racial conflict among the different hill
clans was raging fiercely during the period of Lord Shiva. Shiva worked
hard to cultivate a perfect friendship among the three warring groups. He
knew that in the absence of such a friendship, the future of humanity was
dark. Just as Krs´n´a wanted to unite all the people of the then India and
create a Maha´bha´rata [Great India], similarly, Shiva wanted to unite the
three warring groups. He thought that his lofty spiritual cult and ideology
and his unique school of medicine would not be properly conveyed to future
generations if the people continued their racial battles." (AV-7, p.54-55)
Note: The groupist chaos that Baba is describing above still holds true
today in this modern era. Tragically now due to the group fight, so many
dharmic works have been left behind-- undone. And instead all the groups
have engaged all their engines in this group fight-- thereby misusing and
abusing the potential of so many wts. Also most margiis are not being
utislied for dharmic work beause of this factional clash. The whole affair
is criminal. Society needs our help and our AMPS is riddled with selfish
group conflict like the days of old. Thus Baba's above messge rings true
still today. Now the main thing is that unity is needed. So our duty is to
realise the gravity of the situation and fix this problem once and for all.
When done our AMPS will be able to do great things on this earth.
