Saints Give a Wake-up Call to the Society

Ramaswarupdasji Maharja, President Akhil Bhartiya Chatussampradaya Akhada parishad, Vrindavan: In our supremely radiant saints who are great thinkers ascetics, and who residing in India light the way for the whole world, and to whom the world looks upto for guidance. Such saints are being attackede. False allegations are being levellled against Sant Sri Asaramji Bapu, a great Yugadrishta of the present era. How can all this be stooped? The Hindus of India, if not of the whole world will have to become united for this purpose.

Sant Sri Asarmji Bapu, a great preceptor and eloquent speaker is always seen proclaiming the clarion call of Indian culture to the world. Why is the saint being maligned through wretched newspapers and base TV Channels today? We must get to the root of the conspiracy. By and large, the highly accom0plished and competent saints have been selected for attack b because it is through them that the nation responds and gets its direction. Sant Sri Asaramji, Shankaracharyaji, Ramdvji and other saints who have great sway over the people, should instruct their followers to start their own News Channel and broadcast news impartially.

Brethren! The day you decide not to watch these corrupted channels, will be the day they die because your watching them sustains them; it is their life-breath. As soon as you stop watching, they are finished!

Swami Ramachaitanya Bapu, Chief Secretary Akhil Bhartiya Sant Samaj: India is a country that is known as ‘Mother India’. There is no other country that is given the honor of mother, and it is on this land that saints and Rishis are born. Therefore, we say, ‘Bharat Maata ki jai’ (hail to Mother India) but it is sad to note that today the saints are persecuted here; and cows are slaughtered too!

How much has Bapu (Sant Shri Asaramji Bapu) given to the society; he has never had any selfish motive. He has good wishes even for those who are speaking, writing or telecasting scandalous and derogatory news about him. If somebody makes false and malicious allegations against such a saint or casts aspersions against him we will not tolearate. Today, we need to wake up, we need to be vigilant. Conspiracies are being hatched against all the saints these days. We shall not tolerate it.

Mahamadaleshwar Shri Sunil Shastriji Maharaj: ‘This is the consequence of insulting a saint (Vibhishana). The city (Ravana’s Lanka) is being burnt like it has not master.
When nature takes things into its own hands, nobody can escape its fury. There is still time,. It is better late than never. Conspirators! Don’t harass the saints so much that the saints’ society would abhor or curse you.

Mahamandaleshwar Swami Parmatmanandji Maharaj, Vrindavan: Tulsidasji says, ‘The saints are saral (guileless). Today I am India and are going to say openly and with all the force at my command that there is no saint in the world equal to our Bapu, Sant Shri Asaramji. Our Bapuji is very saral indeed.The word saral has three letters ‘sa’ ‘ra’ ‘la’. ‘Sa’ ‘la’ stands for Sitaji, ‘ra’ stands for Ramaji and have darshana of Sitaji, Ramaji and Lakshmanaji, bow yourself at the feet of Bapuji. He is the greatest saintin the would, the holiest of all temples.

Our Bapuji is saral, and is the embodiment of Sitaji, Ramaji and Lakshmanji. Do you know who Sitaji, ERamaji and Lakashmanji are?

Tulsidasji says that Sitaji is the Bhakti (devotion) aspect of God; Lakshamanji is Vairagya (dispassion) aspect of God; and Ramaji is Jnana (Knowledge) aspect of Gos. What does this indicate? If you see Bapuji, you will know that he is the amalgamation of devotion,dispassion and knowledge. Bapuji was great, is great and will remain great forever.

So far as we at Vrindavan are concerned, I promise you on behalf of the chief of the Vrindavan Ashram that whenever a call is made, we shall not come as one or two, or a many as are required and wherever required. All the saints and mahants of Shrridham Vrindavan, Barsana, Gopa Govardhan, Gokul, and Mathura, unitedly pledge our solidarity with Sri Asaramji Maharaj.

Swami Madhusudanji Maharaj, Dadu Dinadayal Ashram (Dadu Sect), Rajasthan: Sleep not; time to be slack. Ponder over the question why people from other religions and some other wayward people who are conspiring against us, are targeting only our saints for malicious attacks? The saints are never maligned as these things don’t matter to them, but it has an extremely detrimental effect on us, Hindu brothers and sisters, because this culture of ours is founded on adoration, faith and Dharma. These people want to snatch it from us. Therefore we should be extremely vigilant.

Why is it that only the saints are accused? What do the saints give us? What have the Rishis always been giving us? It is samskaras, or teaching, samskaras and education have been given in Guraukuls since time immemorial. These people want to shatter the adoration and faith people have in the saints, such that life itself will be destroyed. Of what value would life be worth then? Therefore, these people want to weaken the society by destroying its adoration and faith in the saints.

So, we have to bring awakening; we have to be vigilant enough to see through the games of these people who are making false allegations and who want to find out the weak points of society to weaken it. Kindly consider what are the corner stones of our Hindu culture? It is founded on the Gita, the Ganga, Guru and the holy mother cow. Just think, if who will give Samskaras nd right education to the society? False allegations are being made as part of the numberless conspiracies hatched against the very saints who have renounced their homes and devoted their entire lives for the sake of the society! This is highly deplorable indeed.

Shri Jagjitan Maharaj, Chief Secretary Dharma Shikshamandal Varanasi: Adi Shankaracharya established four monasteries of Hinduism in the four quarters of India (Sringeri, Dwaraka, Badrinath and Jagannath Puri) and through them knit the entire country together with the thread of cultural unity. It has become likewise imperative that saintas all over the country should become united, and should work to unveil the conspiracies being hatched against them, thus exposing the evil intentions of the conspirators.

Pay no heed to the rumours, and don’t be misled by by people engaged in perverse talk and behavior out of their jealousy against the good work being done by saints and great personages of Sanatana Dharma. Have reverence for your Gurus and saints and give a fitting reply to the scandal-mongers by exposing their evil deeds. To thwart such evil intentions by coming together, is the neede of the hour. The attempts to break the integrity and culture of India, have to be foiled.

Mahamandaleshwar Shri Nagendra Swami, Chaitanyapeetha, Chhindwara (M.P.): First temples were demolished, now the majorities, our Hindus are being tricked into conversion and again the saints and great soul who come into our midst for propagating the Hindu religion are being made targets of malicious propaganda. This is what we are getting for our tolerance today., we will not near this insult.

Uddhavji Maharaj, Udgir (Maharashtra): Who are the masterminds behind the allegations being levelled against our beloved Sant Sri Asaramji Bapu, whois a revolutionary saint and is revered right across the glove? These masterminds are nothing other than foreign elements. It has awakened Hindus from Kashmir to Kanyakumari. We are not going to fear. We are nto alone. The conspiracy against Bapuji has awakened the society. It is time to stay awake, not to sleep.
Shri Yogendra Maharaj, Warkari Sect: We will have to come together to fight the attacks against saints of our Hindu Culture.
Other statements
Shri Ashok Singhal, Internations Chairman, Vishwa Hindu parishad: I came to know a few years ago that a well-planned plot had been designed to attack all the objects of faith of the Indian people, such as launching a campaign of character assassination against all major saints and attempting to destroy society’s faith in them. Shortly afterwards, we saw Shankaracharyaji being arrested for an alleged murder, a crime nobody could imagine he could have committed. Our entire Hindu society could never accept such allegations being made. All kinds of accusations were being made against him. The same thing is being done today against Sri Asaramji Bapu. Bapuji is a highly eminet and well-known saint who is engaged today in values in society. The entire Hindu society will remain ever indebted to him for the great work he has done in establishing the faith of the tribal people living in the forests into the Hindu Culture. Hindus will never be able to repay this debt. This great personage has set up various charitable service programmes in the tribal areas. Those who could not tolerate this, have tired to malign Him through the media, as they had earlier done to Shankaracharyaji. Efforts will be made to malign other saints also in future, though it will fail to have any effect on Hindu society.

All of us should became more vigilant toward the attacks being mounted on us from all sides and should propagate the good aspects of the saints, for this is the age of publicity.
Shri Mukesh Jain, Chairman, Dharmaraksha Dara Sena: Sena: The conspiracy that is raging against Bapuji impels me to exhort the people to proceed against these sinister elements. It is the primary duty of every Hindu to destroy such unrighteousness.

Shrimati Himani Savarkar, Chairperson, Akhil Bhartiya Mahasabha: Why should we tolerate false allegations being made against the saints? The scandalmongers themselves are liars and good for noting. They cannot achieve social good as the saints are doing. They don’t have the capability to do for society what Sant Sri Asaramji Bapu and other saints are doing. Therefore, they construct these false allegations and cause confusion. We must not tolerate it at all.
