== DMS ROUND-UP ==
Namaskar,
Here are some point of note regarding the recent New Year's DMS.
1) There were many police like other years in DMS. The organisation had
to pay 75000 Rs. in fees to police.
2) Vishvadeva'nanda-- (whose tenure at PP has been declared illegal by
the Purulia Court as the Court has told that Vishvadeva'nanda can't
function as PP till the completion of the case of PP election)-- gave
his speech. He was referred to as varishtha purodha' (Senior purodha')
by the Ranchi administration b/c it was illegal to announce him as
being the Purodha' Pramukha.
3) The Unity group dadas and didis were present in AN but they did not
try to enter in DMS pandal. When some didis went to Chowk near Pandal
then Vishruta'nanda who is gunda of Nigama'nanda abused them in filthy
language like Randi (Prostitute) and used f...... word for didis.
4) Many margiis standing on the chowk were openly abusing purodhas for
disunity of the org. No one dared to oppose margiis for that.
5) Vishvadeva'nanda is acting like Shraddha'nandajii who acted like he
was sitting on Guru's gaddi (seat). Vishvadeva'nanda is also not doing
Saustanga pranam, he did not raise slogan of Parampiita' Ba'ba' kii jai.
He never did Kiirtan with margiis or he did not come to do kiirtan in
Kiirtan pandal. Margiis were surprised and asking each other that when
Vishvadeva'nanda can hear kiirtan singing going on in Kiirtan pandal
then how can he refrain from coming and doing kiirtan. It shows that he
has nothing to do with kiirtan and he is hypocrite. That was what many
were thinking.
6) When Vishvadeva'nanda was coming in RDS, he was acting like he has
become something else. He was not present in the hall when workers were
singing PS or doing kiirtan and sadhana'. At that point he was still
siting in his room near the hall and only after this spiritual aspect
was over would he enter the hall in Namaskar mudra. He never did
Sastaunga pranam in RDS in front of Ba'ba's Pratikirti. He was coming
doing Namaskar to Baba and everyone and then sitting on his beautifully
decorated chair. He never told a single word in reporting session. He
was just sitting with smiling idol. In the last he was going in his room
and all workers had to raise slogan Parampiita'; Ba'ba' kii jai. This
all was just ridiculous and Gurudroha. Many did not like this.
7) At 12 at midnight of 1st January (thursday midnight) B group got
charge of pandal. Certain Ranchi regime persons tried their best to
stop margiis from being in the pandal for B group DMS, but margiis did
not stop in the pandal. 60% of margiis left Pandal in midnight. And
other large amount left the next day at noon time on 2nd January. B
group had only less than 500 margiis and some tribal people of AN. B
group was distributing free food even then margiis did not go to B group
DMS. Just a few, less than 20 margiis, went to B group DMS with Goenka
jii of Bengalore.
Once again it is clear that these senior members of either group are not
really interested in unity.
By Baba's grace this will all turn around soon when ideology, and not
groupist power, becomes the main theme of the day.
Namaskar,
Manindra

Population Growth: Really a Problem?
Baba says, "Does a population problem actually exist? This issue should
be considered in the perspective of two vital factors - the availability
of food and the availability of space. Today human beings have enough
resources to manage their food. Planet Earth is rich enough to feed a
far greater number of people than the present population....[So] The
tragedy is that there are enough resources to supply proper food to all
human beings in the world, but the defect lies in the present approach
of the existing socioeconomic
systems." (PNS-13, p.44)
