== FORMULA FOR SOLVING THE PROBLEMS ==
Namaskar,
These days in this email era, letters are flying all about. So we should
have a way to measure what is what: To see which has value and which not.
Because now with the rampant spread of groupism in the upper echelon of our
Marga, so many different types of mails are getting distributed-- Some big,
some small, some useful, and some useless etc.
That is why a standard approach is needed to verify the value of such
mails. We should know which ones are supportive to the healthy growth of
our Marga and which one go counter to that ideal.
In general, we can classify emails about the status of our AMPS into three
main categories:
[1] Leftist (criticism only);
[2] Rightist (blind support of status quo); and,
[3] Middle (i.e. Madhya Ma'rga or balanced approach).
Here below is an easy-to-apply formula to understand which is which. That
way we know can neatly recognise which mails are constructive, positive, &
productive in nature-- thereby allowing us to discover the right solution,
apply the correct answer, and bring our Marga forward.
WE SHOULD FOLLOW BABA'S WAY
Or course in each and every facet of life, Baba is our shining example. And
in our social life, Baba represents the balanced approach-- Madhya Marga,
or the middle path.
With His deeply benevolent and penetrating vision, Baba carefully points
out the defects and offers a proper solution for each and every problem in
the society. This is what Baba has done with regards to communism,
capitalism, factionalism, party politics, starvation, natural calamities etc.
In each and every circumstance Baba has boldly and courageously pointed out
the defect, given the solution, and implemented a plan for advancement.
This is His dynamic model-- this is madhya marga.
And it is this which we have to follow; otherwise we will never be able to
rid groupism from our Marga.
So first we have to see if any problems exist or not. If so, then they
should be identified and brought to the fore so everyone may be aware. And
side-by-side a rational solution based on Baba's teachings should be
presented. This is our balanced method. This is Baba's example.
THE LEFTIST MODEL: USELESS HOT AIR
Now that it has come in vogue to write about groupism, so many
selfish-minded persons just like to mudsling their opponents. But this has
no practical benefit.
It is no different than what happens in mundane politics during the time of
elections where crude politicians send out dirty propaganda with the sole
intention of achieving their own selfish agenda. Just they criticize and
criticize without offering any practical solution.
Many or all of the groupist mailings by the various groups-- H, B, EC, &
NIA-- fall into this category. Where only dirt and criticism is tossed
around and no proper solution based on Baba's teachings is put forth.
That is why Baba has nothing good to say about such leftists.
Baba says, "Those who are leftists in the world...are even more dangerous.
The defect&of the leftists is their hyper-activity, based on selfishness.
It seems as though they are deliberately seeking out the dark and dirty
aspects of life and, like flies, growing fat on the secretions of society's
festering sores. It must be remembered that flies do not heal sores -
rather they exacerbate them, because the very pus of these sores provides
them with their vital juice. So the filthy aspects of society are the only
wealth on which these artists and litterateurs subsist." (PNS-10)
So in the groupist war, we cannot trust those power-hungry teamsters who
write mails only to defame others and get higher posts for themselves. This
type of selfish leftist tactic has no value. But that is what we are
witnessing day in and day out on various Marga e-forums.
Hence we should all be aware lest we waste our valuable time: A balanced
approach is needed where solutions are given based on Baba's teachings.
That way we can all discuss the path of forward movement and not just bash
the current rulers. So none should get duped by the leftist model.
THE RIGHTIST MODEL: INACTIVITY
The opposite extreme is what the rightists do-- perhaps more appropriately,
what they do not do.
Such rightists, whether in the form of political 'yes men' or ACB tools or
groupist lackeys, give blind support to the ruling faction. And they try to
convince the masses that 'everything is fine; that everything is running
smoothly'. This is what happens both inside and outside of AM.
President Bush's chief of staff will openly say that everything is moving
ahead properly in Iraq and that a just solution is coming soon. Likewise
various lackeys of Rudrananda will tell that the organisational leadership
is proper even though that very leadership has infused so many dogmas like
scriptural distortions, demolition of BP post, expulsion orders, fake
Ananda Vaniis, etc. And the same thing Sarvatmananda's team did earlier.
They told 'everything is ok' and side by side they were infusing various
dogmas to tighten their groupist regime.
So always the rightists become the tools of the ruling elite. These
rightists refuse to recognise the existence of any problem; they never
think that such-and-such situation needs to be fixed.
Baba says, "The defect of the rightists is their inaction." (AFPS-10)
That is why in our Marga since 1990, none of the ruling groupists-- neither
Sarvatmananda nor Rudrananda nor any of their assorted tools-- has ever
come forward and stated that the dogmas of groupism should be removed. They
have never done anything to wipe out the false dogmas plaguing our Marga.
Just they sit back and nod their head and let those problems ferment.
OUR PRACTICAL APPROACH: MADHYA MARGA
In AM, according to Baba's guideline, our pathway is to follow the
practical approach: Use our intellect and mind to point out the problems
and give the solution based on AM teachings. This is what Baba wants to see
done and this is how we build up a healthy society on this dusty earth: By
fixing the problems using AM ideology as the solution.
And that is what numerous margiis are doing. They are proclaiming: No more
groupist agendas, no more fake Ananda Vaniis, no more expulsion, no more
Fake BP Manual, no more Tiirthas, no more Mahaprayan, no more groupist dogmas.
Such margiis and field workers see that groupism is a problem and recognise
that the elimination of groupist dogmas will bring forth a clean and pure
AMPS.
So this work is going on by Baba's grace and the good efforts of margiis
from all around. And this is the middle path.
EVEN THEN...
At the same time-- some rightist types such as ACB tools etc-- do not like
that anyone should ever point out any problem, even if Baba's solutions are
given side by side. Such rightists cannot tolerate that. So in hasty
fashion they say again and again that this type of criticism is
impractical. This is their rightist agenda. They do not like to follow
Baba's approach; they want to cover up all the problems and let them ferment.
Those ACB and goody-goody types who do like this know who they are; and
they should confront their inner evils and adopt an open, neo-humanistic
vision by which to view the world.
Then they will see that pointing out the problems and giving the AM
ideological solution is the way of welfare and benevolence. And that will
bring health and wealth to our Marga society.
BABA'S BLESSING
By Baba's causeless grace, we will solve all the problems in our Marga. By
that way the day is not far when the whole humanity will be together under
the saffron flag of Ananda Marga.
Baba says, "Human society will be established in this supreme idea in the
very near future...The humanity of the universe will unite; and we await
anxiously for that happy moment." (AV-31, p.111)
Namaskar,
Hitendra

Lust For Beauty Brings Crudification and Degeneration
Baba says, "Those who are vain about their physical beauty, or those who
pray to the Supreme to give them more and more physical charm, are reborn
as kinnaras. They are also luminous bodies." (YP, p.79)
Note 1: Kinnara is one variety of microvita that is under punishment. Such
type of unfortunate beings got degenerated and became microvita. So they
are suffering and they long to once again get human life. But this will
come only after they escape from the noose of the long-term bondage and
state of punishment etc.
