Sri Ram Sama; imbroglio

Thus Spake Managing Trustee

Despite exposes on the unlawful acts at the Sri Ram Now that three years

Samaj, the Samaj has shot out a letter stating that the have passed the governing exposes are undemocratic and devoid of facts and advised

to desist from writing and discuss with the office bearers who are open for discussions.

Now after perusing the various data available with us the especially the printed and published annual report and proceedings of the annual general meeting and extra ordinary general body meeting wherein it was stressed that the Trust board should be removed, here we give below the excerpts.

In the Extra Ordinary General Meeting the recommendations of the Bye Law Review Committee comprising of three eminent persons of Judicial standing - Headed by Justice K P Sivasubramaniam, Senior Advocates P B Ramanujam and B Rajagopal - spelt out clearly the deletion of clause 41 A and some other clauses dealing with the Trust Board. Also it has very clearly stated that there cannot be two committees to manage the affairs ofthe society.

Secondly in the published annual report and statement o accounts for the year ended 31 March 2007 in Page 16 Paragraph 5 (See Photo) the managing trustee has said" Some times we have to tell lies to protect the organization" when the then president was open enough to admit the hundi collection done by the Samaj.

This is itself speaks of double standards maintained by the Managing Trustee.

On the same occasion he has stated that the students would be affected if the recognition for the school was not received in 2007 itself as if he has great concern for the students. The then governing body some how got the recognition for the school till 2007 .

body is moving pillar to post to get the recognition without fulfilling the norms and the recognition is still delayed and the school is yetto getthe recognition.

What is the future of the students studying now. Is the managing trustee not responsible for this act as he claims he is vested with the powers of maintenance of the Samaj property and other things as required by the law.

Even during the term of office which he was holding -

as mentioned in the T N Societies Registration Act - for three years from July 2006 he did not act upon to get the required recognition for the school and now that the term has expired as per the act and he is still holding the post unmindful of the legal implications spoiling over 2000 students life and career.

Is it worth continuing?

- As desired by the Samaj through their letter stated above we have intimated to the president about the publication of this news item orally and then this is published with no malice towards one and all.

Eternal Relationship!

Any serious relationship is born out of love and respect for each other. The pure love that evolves in a relationship overtime becomes unconditional and unselfish. It dissolves and overlooks any impurities that may exlst in between, There are no hidden motives, agendas or things to prove In such a relationship. Such types of relationships ~xist in long lasting marriages and between parents and children. The power of pure love is such that it provides strength and courage to those involved in times of need and crisis. When the children grow up and move on, the love of parents does not diminish. In fact it works the other way; when children progress, parents feel happiness. In s u c h relationships someone is always there to fall back on. An anchor in the family always looks to the needs and wants of others before thinking about themselves. We come across many strangers daily but we do not feel the same special bond t~at w~ f~el with our Il?v~d ones. The starting point of any relationship IS to have faith In each other and be honest and serious to continue a relationship. Through disappointments and excitements one discovers the true nature of each other and thus the relationship becomes stronger and stronger leading eventually to pure love where no questions are asked nor are necessary. Yes, each one is there for the other.

Such a relationship also exists between a perfect master and the soul. The perfect master is eternally bound to the soul in a relationship of pure and unconditional love. All other relationships end when the life on earth ends but the relationship of the master and soul continues beyond all borders. For that reason one has to take this relationship seriously and put all efforts from their. side to make it stronger. The master is ever aware of this relationship but the soul becomes unaware because of its state of evolution. The master being ever vigilant keeps guiding the soul through its journey.

At some point in the journey, the master's involvement in its life awakens the soul and sends through bursts of love and gratitude for the master. Then the soul becoming aware of the relationship becomes bound to the master and starts exerting to make it stronger and stronger.

The relationship between a disciple and master is aptly described in "Shri Satcharita". There are many stones exemplifying the relationship between Shri Sai and his children those who were first unaware of its existence but once it was discovered they could not live without Sai and they went to the extent of leaving their homes, family and profession just to be with their beloved master. Notable among them was Kakasaheb Dixit, a very .stro.ng personality of those times. Dixit was a .member of leglsl~t!ve council of Bombay presidency nominated by the British government. He was a very famous solicitor and active member of the society. After visiting Shri Sai in Shirdi, He lost all his interest in fame, name and money and took every opportunity to be in Shirdi with the master: TI? the extent that in 1910 he built a wada or home in Shirdi to make It his permanent place of abode. Dixit'~ life s~rv~s. as an ex~mple of relationship that had reached ItS zemth In Just one life. So much so that Baba spoke about Dixit as, "When his time comes, I will take him with me in an airplane." Another relationship that stands out is between Megha and the Master. Upon Megha's death, Baba had said, " He was ~y true disciple". Even after Baba's leaving the mortal call, such relationships have continued and continue to this day. The foremost example is of B.V.Narasimha Swami who was so overpowered by the love of this relationship that he left his roaring attorney practice to research ~n~ dl?cum~nt t~,e experiences of those who had spent their life In Shn Sal s physical presence.

What one achieves in fulfilling a relationship may be frightening to others. Many a ~imes Baba took upon th~ pain of others to relieve them of pain! A story that reflects this IS of Kharparde's. Once when the Kharparde's were visiting the Master, the son fell sick and the mother was very scared and nervous. She sought Baba's help and the Master showed them how he took on the disease upon himself. People say that Baba gave up his life to fulfill the promise he made to Tatya's mother. Such is the sacrifice and love of the Master towards his relatives! In comparison to that what have we to boast about? One should seriously reflect on their eternal relationship with Shri Sai and ask this question to themselves.

In his anugraha bashanam the pontiff highlighted the importance of Ramanama japam. and fol!o~ ~he path of dharma which was brought to this materiallstic world by Lord Rama through his life stories.

He lauded the efforts of Sri Ram Samaj in organising discourses in Ramayana and Mahabharata and emphasized that one should also follow the path laid down in dharma Sastra and requested the Samaj to organise lectures on Dharma Sastra so that the general public can be benefited.

Earlier president N Venkataraman welcomed the

acharya. Samaj office bearers were present on the

occasion amidst a huge turnout of devotees.

where are they now?

"My child sponsor has re-written my destiny", says Dr. Sunita Garasia, a formerly sponsored child. Coming from a remote community in Rajasthan, where most girls are married off early, Sunita's achievement is outstanding!

Today, Dr. Garasia serves her community members with zeal.

sponsors speak

"My wife and I still remember the joy we had when we started sponsoring a child through World Vision a few years back. We in our "busy life", were always focused on receiving and earning more than giving.

The joy of giving made us give more and that is how we started contributing to World Vision India's 'Unique Gift Catalogue'. The more we gave the more God blessed us. What He gives us is not only ours but also for others who are in need. God has placed us as their caretakers!

Giving also taught our daughter Olivia about the value of money and to be thankful for the good life she enjoys."
