Leadership Issue in AMPS

Date: Wed, 29 Oct 2008 23:29:06 -0000 To: am-global@earthlink.net From: Jawaharlal (Jawaharlal_T@banknet...> Subject: Leadership Issue in AMPS Baba "Tamasa'r parapa're jyotirttaka' niye a'cho ke go ananta ka'l dhare..." (#1818) Purport: O' the Divine Entity! Who are You, since eternity You have been holding the divine lamp, standing across the cimmerian darkness. Piercing that Cimmerian darkness, the whole universe is inundated by the flashing sparks of effulgence which are floating on and on, endlessly. O' Witnessing Entity, You are fully aware what everyone is thinking, what people are saying, and what everyone is doing. All these things You know. And You will go on seeing and witnessing these things-- all the while remaining invisible. O' Effulgent divine Entity, You are the absolute Goal; nobody is equal to Your status, glory, and greatness. You alone have the ability and power to create or withdraw all the emanations of this expressed universe. Within a flash You can infuse or take back any vibration-- secretly and silently, without the awareness of anyone. O' Divine Entity, I surrender at Your alter...
== LEADERSHIP ISSUES IN AMPS: SHARED IN A RATIONAL WAY ==
Namaskar, In the wake of PP Dada's Mahaprayan (death), there is much talk about how our organisation is to proceed. Whatever may be, we must never lose sight of the fact that our AMPS structure is built on the pillars of coordinated cooperation between family margiis and wholetimers. It is not the margiis are to be forced to take a back-seat role. The running of AMPS is to be shared in a rational way. That is Baba's guideline & the below story helps remind us of this. This is the great boon that Baba has given the BP system whereby family persons have gotten the opportunity to work side by side in coordinated fashion. Indeed if this would have been done all along since 1990 then we would not be facing the situation which we find ourselves in today-group clash. Because prior to 1990 it was working but it got diluted thereafter. And the various groupists are the main cause as they altered all the rules and in that way the BP system got totally corrupted. Only puppets got the place and by that way those groupist rulers did to their own liking. Thus with no control on those various WT groups, it became a power hungry group clash and the whole scene became total suffocation. So now we are facing those things. One side because margiis were not given the opportunity to work in coordinated cooperation. And also because those exploiters would pushing hard to create subordinated cooperation. So that is the result and a serious catastrophe has resulted. The answer of course is that if Baba's monumental BP system were properly followed then this problem will be solved. Baba is Almighty and when He has given the system it is our dharmic duty to implement those things for the universal well-being.
HOW HE GRACIOUSLY STARTED THE BP SYSTEM
After coming out of jail in 1978, our Baba the Sadguru started giving more & more new programs-- including the system of Bhukti Pradhan (BP). And the introduction of the BP system, was a revolutionary step for AM society because in this system Baba has given equal tights to Margiis & WTs to run the organization with coordinated cooperation. Until now, in human history, not a single so-called guru could dare to give equal rights to their family & sannyasi disciples. But Baba has graced us by bestowing these rights because our Beloved Baba is Tarak Brahma. Yet, in this situation, some groupist Dadas like Sarvatmanandaji, were internally upset because they could not digest this idea of sharing the leadership of the organisation with Family Margiis. Being all-knowing, the Taraka Brahma Baba was aware about everything that is going to happen in the future. And HE was also aware how our certain power-hungry Dadas would curtail all the Margiis rights in future. Because of that to solve, this problem BABA lovingly played HIS Divine Liila.
BABA'S GENERAL DARSHAN
At that very time, in one simple general Darshan, Baba first started talking about the Bhukti Pradhan system. During General Darshan, Baba told that Margiis will feel more responsible with this newly introduced BP system and that it will be more beneficial for different social service projects of AMPS. Because when WTs get transferred & new WTs are posted there, then the general public is not familiar about the newly posted WT. And in consequence the project suffers a lot-- because of lack of cooperation from non-Margiis. Other religious organizations rarely transfer their monks & that is why they have public support. But this brings about the degeneration of those monks. So in our system, transfer postings cannot be stopped as this protects the WT's existence.
BP SYSTEM IS ONE SPECIAL BOON FOR ORGANISATIONAL GROWTH
With the newly given BP system if local Margiis take responsibility of running service projects, then our organization will grow very fast. Thus with the introduction and implementation of the BP system, the opportunity is there for both family persons & Acaryas to work side by side in coordinated cooperation to establish the ideology.
BP'S & SELF CLEANING SYSTEM OF AMPS
Further Baba says because of this unique system of self-cleaning, our organization (AMPS) will grow in leaps & bounds because if anyone is going against 16 Pts or ideology, they will be rectified at the earliest. In this way there will be proper control of WTs by Margiis & due control of Margiis by WTs. So the conduct of both will be ever-clean & the organization will go on serving the society-- on and on.
COORDINATED COOPERATION BETWEEN WTS AND MARGIIS
At the darshan, after that, Baba, in a loving & smiling way, addressed all the Acaryas who were sitting there & Baba said, "You workers (WTs), will you allow Margiis to work side by side with you in coordinated cooperation?" All the WT Dadas responded collectively & said, "Yes, Baba." But in certain cases, some Central Dadas were just mechanically accepting what Baba was telling because in their heart of hearts they were not pleased to give any rights to family Margiis. After that, Baba again in a smiling way asked all the Margiis who were present there in G.D., "Will you, (Margiis), be able to work side by side with WT Dadas?" Then all the Margiis responded with joy, "Yes, Baba."
VARABHAYA MUDRA
Then our Beloved Baba was in a very blissful mood & HE said, "MY sons & MY daughters are MY two hands & have equal rights. The role of family persons is from bottom to top & I, (Baba), have made such a system that family persons are on the Purodha Board also." After this General Darshan, Baba asked Margiis to sing bhajans. Then Baba graciously blessed all present with His Varabhaya Mudra. In this way the General Darshan blissfully concluded & Baba majestically moved towards His Marga Guru (MG) Quarters.
SOME REFLECTION
Today, PP has passed and many have their eye on ruling AMPS... ...in the present day situation when our organisation is facing serious crisis. And different factions of Avadhuta groups are trying to balkanise AMPS. In this crucial time it is the demand of the day that the unique system which Baba has given-- that margiis and WTs should work side by side in the Administration-- this should be implemented. Because devoid of this all these problems are not only coming but they cannot be solved. This is the time when we have to think again why Baba has given the unique system that family margiis and WTs are to jointly run the organisation with coordinated cooperation. Unfortunately due to extreme lust of power and terrible group clash, after 1990 Baba's system could not get implemented in the real sense. And in the absence of this, the present day catastrophe has come. But if this system of Bhukti Pradhan rights had not been curtailed and the system was functioning properly then surely the present day negative scenario would not have arrived. Waiting to hear others' thoughts & opinions. Here following is Baba's special blessing: Baba says, "Advance as a vanguard leading the way for others to follow. This is the true spirit of life, and this is the path upon which your glory will be established." (AV-8, p. 99) Respectfully yours, Jawaharlal
******************************************** Honey is Eye-Medicine
Baba says, "Floral nectar can be collected from lotus and is very good for all kinds of eye diseases, including retinal detachment...To extract the honey, you have to employ the same method as doctors use to extract blood. This is because many ants and insects feed on the honey. A syringe can extract it without getting clogged up." (PNS-16, p. 33-34)
