…. but these days the western view seems to be gathering momentum if we see the entire media is sex-based.  You need sex to even sell a coffee powder.  If you think the west is saturated with sex, you are mighty wrong…. the west is perverted while the east is repressed.

Nevertheless, I do agree with the eastern view that woman is primarily a Mother.  You see even a little girl.  Motherhood is in her genes.  See her playing games mothering a doll…. but then it is another riddle of the egg and chicken.  If a woman has to be a mother, she also should be a sex object.  Only through sex, can she be a mother.

Osho — my fav since only he has the guts to speak the unpleasant harsh truth — used to say that every woman is a prostitute while every man is a pimp.  He used to say that every lady has a bitch in her who wishes to flirt wtih multiple men at a time.

Nevertheless, my purpose of writing this article is to elucidiate on the most misunderstood and taboo themes of brahmacharya, free sex, marriage and mental blue films.

First of all, sex is the basis of creation.  It is the most fundamental energy in every creature.  Sigmund Freud’s view is that 99 pecent of mental problems have its origin in sex.  I disagree.  For me, sex is a part of nava rasas (nine emotions).  So my view is that man is a crowd and sex should occupy only around 14 percent of man’s mind and time.  It is virtually impossible to have sex 24 hours a day.  That itself is proof that Freud is wrong.

However, Freud is not entirely wrong.  Today, sex has occupied more than 90 percent of man’s mind space.  That is primarily because of guilt and repression.

My view on sex is very similar to Osho and J Krishamurthy.  They say that physical sex is not the problem.  It is mental sex that is the real problem.  Animals do not have the problem of wet dreams.  Only man has — thanks largely to repression.

That is the reason why Osho did not encourage marriage… because any woman (or man as the case may be) becomes boring after a few days. How long can we rub each other’s noses without getting bored.

My logic is simple.  Whatever is natural cannot be wrong.  What is right is natural.  Buddhists called it sahaj.

That of course does not mean that I am encouraging free sex.  I am of the view from practical experience that once we get saturated with sex, we see the opposite sex not as a sex object but as a human being.

Parenthood is a more powerful instinct then sex.  However, it is attained only after transcending sex or after a particular period of time.  Brahmacharya is not merely physical.  It is deeper.  However, the brahmacharis that I see around (whether it be the padre or the celibate monk) is a walking mental blue-film.

Humanity should not be a zombie.  It should be humane and evolved.  That is possible only if we have a sense of healthy sexuality.   However, modern society today is full of extremities.

The west is extremely on indulgence while the east is extreme on repression.  There has to be a balance somewhere.

I am also reminded of Russell’s line — Skin to Skin is no sin.  The west used Russell as an excuse for their promiscousness that even Russell was shocked.

Repression is one end.  Indulgence is the other.  Liberation is possible only on the middle path. 

Utopia is possible only in a society which respects healthy sexuality.

Osho used to say that sex is also a great fear of humanity.  (The other is death.  I will write about it someday).  That is why everybody speaks in a hushed tone and I even keep getting comments that this site is high on sexuality.  I wish to say that a healthy society should not be afraid of the basic energy of the creation.  If it does, the result will be a cowardly society.  This is what we are seeing today.

Postscript: Before you pass any judgement on me, I would like to state that I am a devotee of Hanuman.  I wish that everybody could be a brahmachari.  Real joy is possible only when we transcend sex.

I wish to inform my readers that I have only this website besides the blog that I started saffronthinktank.blogspot.com

That blogger did not even ask my permission before putting my photo and my book.  And he has already started misquoting my message.  I am a Hindu internationalist and I don’t believe in having an army  (Hindu Sena).  Nor do I believe in cheap cliches like One Nation.  One People (very Hitlerian).

So I hereby declare that I have nothing to with that blog http://jaihindusena.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html

I have a feeling that the blog is backed by a missionary.  They may do a blast somewhere and place the tag — Jai Hindu Sena — behind so that the communal UPA can arrest me.

I have only one website at present — http://www.greathindu.com  and no other.  Please don’t be fooled.

At that time, I was at an all-time low having suffered five rounds of malaria-jaundice.  Physically, I was down and there were doubts on my sanity too because I was hallucinating.  I was finding it difficult to differentiate between dreams and realities. Seeing my predicament, I was told to move base to Bangalore as there were chances that I would suffer more rounds of malaria.  Besides, all my expectations from the Gurus had gone down since nothing worked during my  malarial fever.  I was lucky to come out with a sound body and sound mind.

In Bangalore, I saw large cut-outs and hoardings of Nithyananda Paramahamsa.  They were quite creative with words like — I am not here to prove that I am God. I am here to prove that You are God.

I had seen a lot of Gurudom before… and I was personally not interested.  After that I had a few chance to go to Sri Sri Ashram at Kanakapura in Bangalore. Even there, I was told about Nithy’s competition by some devotees.

Finally, I decided to go to Nithy’s ashram not because I was interested in him… but because I wanted to complete my rounds of Guru shopping (the only famous Guru that I have not yet met is the Dalai Lama whom I plan to meet soon).

So I went to the Ashram.  The Ashram was not sophisticated and plush like the Sri Sri Ashram…. nor was it crowded like Puttaparthi or Beas.

I saw Nithy during the Anandotsava – the annual programme that he conducts.  I was not impressed because I was already Gurued out.

When I was in Keshav Krupa (the State headquarters of the RSS), I chanced upon the book — Living Enlightenment.  Having read so many spiritual books (having the same old scent), I decided to complete that too.  Frankly, I was impressed by Nithy although I thought he had done a lot of cut-&-post by Osho without even mentioning him.

Despite the Osho-cut&paste, I appreciated Nithy’s knowledge (Nithy is younger to me by four years) and I could see from the book that he was erudite.  That itself was the greatest quality which differentiates boys from men (in my opinion).

So I decided to meet Nithy personally.  I was told by his devotee that the best way to meet Nithy was to do the one-day Kalpatharu course.  Nithy allows each and every Kalpatharu course trainee to meet him so that their wish is granted.

So I did the Kalpatharu course conducted by Nithy’s disciple.  There we were made to go through four-rounds of meditation (involving catharsis).   One of Nithy’s disciple also advised me to chuck my job and do seva at the ashram.  I was not averse to the idea but decline the offer only when I was told that those doing seva should take the oath of brahmacharya.

Having read more than 200 books of Osho, I found brahmacharya unnatural.  I have also seen that those practising brahmacharya become hypocrites as they deny their own sexuality.  I have also seen most of the brahmahcaris suffering from anger or other perversions mainly due to the denial of their own nature.  I told Nithy’s disciple that brahmacharya is unnatural and that I don’t mind doing seva provided I was allowed to sow my wild oats wherever I go.   They disagreed with me and I disagreed with them.  I don’t know what these brahmacharis are doing now.  Many of them were immature and irrational — having chucked their education and careers.  They were all telling me that Nithy is God-incarnate (these are some of the natural exaggerations in every ashram and organisation).

Nevertheless, I went near Nithy during the darshan session.  He seemed to be an intelligent young man.  Frankly, I didn’t find the Guru-vibes near me.  However, I found him pleasant as he was patiently listening to the problems of his devotees.

When I went near Nithy, his disciple introduced me to him.  I told Nithy that I have already initiated by more than a dozen gurus and that he was the youngest Guru that I have ever come across.  I also asked him whether he was destined to be my Guru.  Nithy told me that he would give me a personal experience and it was for me to decide.

He placed his hand upon my head and pressed the ajna chakra (centre of the forehead).  I did not feel anything.   I bowed before him and left the scene (as there were several hundreds of devotees waiting to pour their woes on him). Nithy did bless me.

After Nithy’s blessings, life has indeed changed for the better.  Now I am more sober and more aware (I am not doing any ad for Nithy.  I am just expressing myself).

I also wrote an email to Nithy that I would like to do his 21-day course costing Rs. 3.5 lakhs.  I received his mail that he has blessed me and that the requisite funds would come my way.  The next Inner Awakening course is on March 20.

I was expecting a lot from Nithy as he is the youngest Guru to initiate me when I chanced upon the Sun TV video.

Seeing the video, my thoughts went to the brahmacharis in his ashram.  Why is it that only the Guru is allowed the privilege of sex and not the shishyas.

I don’t have any problems with Nithy’s sexuality.  My opinion is that everybody has a right to sexuality.  Celibacy is unnatural.  I only pitied the disciples in Nithy’s Ashram who were deprived of sex.

Having read Nithy’s book, I can see that even Nithy is not against sex.  The Vigyan Bhairava Tantra lists 112 meditation techniques and eight of them are connected with sex.  I really didn’t understand why Nithy expects his disciples to be brahmacharis.  Let me tell everybody clearly that I am not and nor will I encourage this suppression.

I fully support Nithy in all his endeavours and I hope that he will also free his brahmachari disciples from their brahmacharya.  I really appreciate Nithy’s wisdom. Frankly, I never felt that Nithy was my Guru.  I felt that he was like my younger brother — who was doing his bit for Hinduism.

I oppose this pseudosecular media tooth and nail in this videotape controversy not because they aired it… but because they did not say anything positive about Nithy — who had a lot of positive energy in him.  Why doesn’t this liberal fascist media propagate against the Christian padres sexually abusing the boys and girls in their institution?  Why doesn’t this Nazi electronic media train their gun on love jehadis and homosexual Mullahs who sodomise young boys?  Why is it that this fascist electronic media targets only Hindu gurus?  Why don’t they remind themselves that sex is natural and everybody is entitled to it?

Why is it that the liberal media turns Nazi whenever a Hindu Guru is involved.

For these reasons, I will support Nithy and oppose the hypocritic Indian media tooth and nail.  And I am sure that Nithy will bounce back and give a fitting punch to the electronic media nose.

First of all, I must thank you for inviting me to this Workshop on “Spread of Violence in the society”.

I am very happy to spend my time with you and also feel honoured that you have considered me worth your time.

Before speaking on the topic, I must say that I am a very blunt person who prefers to call a spade a spade.  So if anybody is offended by the speech that I am going to give, I am tendering an unconditional advance apology. Sorry in advance… because I believe in speaking the naked truth.  I am not a diplomat.

Now regarding this topic – Spread of Violence in the society – I must say that this is a vague topic.

First of all, violence is a relative term.  Let me just elaborate.

I am a vegetarian Brahmin and for me non-vegetarianism is violence.

But for a non-vegetarian, killing animals is par for the course.  It’s alright.

Similarly, Indian law considers killing human beings an act punishable by death.  But for a Cannibal, killing human beings comes naturally.

So what is violence and what is not depends on who you are.

So – just for the sake of ideology, I have divided humanity into five parts —

There are those who follow Islam – almost a billion adherent.

There are those who follow Christianity – almost another billion adherent.

There are those who are sold on Communist philosophy – I don’t know the exact number.

Then there are Hindus like me.  There are the capitalists. There are the Jews.

So there are broadly 6 lobbies in the world today –

1.    Islamic lobby

2.    Christian lobby

3.    Left-liberal lobby

4.    US-Capitalist lobby

5.    Jewish lobby

6.    Hindu lobby.

As for me, I am a staunch Hindu.  Let me make my position very clear.

For all the six schools of thoughts, the perception of violence and non-violence difference.  Even among these schools of thoughts, there are different sub-sects.

There are 72 sects in Islam.  There are n number of denominations in Christianity.  Among the leftists, there are number of colour – red-pink-blue.  Even in the US, there are different groups.  Even among Hindus, there are number of variant adherents.

My basic point is this: Violence and non-violence are not concrete terms.  They differ from person to person.

It is not that violence is ugly.  Violence can be very beautiful too.  For instance, if you see Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan, you really get inspired by them.  The way they move their hands and legs, the grace in their punch and the kick.  The way soldiers do their marchpast.  I myself am a student of martial arts.  I have always had a passion for all these violent sports – although I have aesthetic sensibilities.

Karate, Tai-Chi, Kick boxing – all these are really entertaining sports for me. It really keeps you fit.

So how do you differentiate between violence and non-violence?

Here I am reminded about the German mystic George Gurdieff who lived during the second world war.

Gurdeiff said that the entire humanity can be clubbed into 4 types:

1.    Survival Type: He is only interested in eating, drinking and mating.  The animalish man.  Let us admit it.  All of us have this tendency – survival and reproduction. Even animals survive and reproduce.  Even we do.  This is a basic.

2.    Logical type: The logical man thinks.  He reasons.  He is curious.  He wants to know the secrets of the universe.  He wonders: “Who am I?  Where am I going?  What is this creation?   Why am I here?  What is the basic psychology”. Gurdeiff says that the logical man is superior to the survival type man.

3.    Emotional Type: He emotes.  He has sentiments.  He has love.  Now this emotional type of man is superior to the logical type.  Because this person knows love.  He is an evolved person.  If you see, there are some wise old men in our families.  They are very matured and loving.  Here I want to differentiate between lust and love.  Love is the flowering of lust.  Lust is basic.  Love is advanced.

THE FOURTH TYPE: Then there is something called as the fourth type.  Gurdeiff said that there is a fourth type in humanity – and he is the one who has transcended both logic and emotion.  He is one with nature.  He is not in duality.  He is a very clear person.  The fourth type is the most matured in humanity.  Somebody like Buddha.  You can categorise them into messaiah category or saints or anything you want.

The transcendence of basic instincts converts man into God.

The Sanskrit terminology is very apt.  It says that the evolution is from Vanara to Nara to Narayana.  Vanara means sub-human or animal, Nara means man.  Narayana or God is the evolution of man into a Superman.

Ahimsa is not the suppression of violence.  Ahimsa is the transcendence of violence.  It is the transcendence of your basic instincts. In all our traditions, the wise old man is very much respected.  Everybody bows to them. Why?  Because the belief (at least the belief is that) the wise old man has transcended the basic instincts of sex and violence.

Sex and violence is animalish.  It is true that we have it. Because man is a mix of divine and animalish nature.  We do need violence to protect ourselves. We do need sex to continue the human race.  But the fact is also that we should transcend it.  And in all our traditions, he is the wise man who has transcended both sex and violence –the Brahmachari who is rooted in Ahimsa – that’s our ideal.

Among the Gurus that I have read and met, I found that Sri Sri is indeed the Guru of joy.  I found Amma warm while the most depressing Guru that I have ever met is U G Krishnamurthy. 

Just read U G Krishnamurthy with an open mind and you will get head-ache.  First I thought it was co-incidence.  Then I went through the list of depression cases among my friend.  And lo, behold, they were all reading UGK.

UGK’s main disciple Mahesh Bhatt is already nuts.  So are the others.  However, I still read UGK — notwithstanding the headaches that he gives me.  I feel it is like delivery pain, undesirable but needed all the same.

As for Sri Sri, I have done two of his courses.  If you do Sri Sri’s kriya, you become light, start singing and dancing.   Despite the joy, I really didn’t want to continue with Sri Sri because I felt that too much joy was also not good.

A little bit masala should be left. If everything is goody-goody, life will be boring.  So on and off, I keep experimenting. 

But my fav is neither UGK or Sri Sri, it is plain body-building and karate.  The last two gives me a kick that nothing can… and of course a bottle of beer.  Thanks for Osho… or else I would have been a teetotaller.

So it is now confirmed the Nithyananda video aired by SUN TV is morphed and was intended to defame Hindus.

I know that the Indian media dogs deliberately did this after all the Church throws biscuits at them.

In case, these media dogs don’t apologize, I will morph a video of  Pope’s sexual escapades with Sonia Gandhi…  besides, of course, a PIL urging the creation of Media Police.

• One Perumananda alias Lenin Karupannan joined Nithyananda’s ashram for “peace” but later started creating all kinds of nuisances on the ashram premises and caused hardship to the inmates.

• He wanted to destroy religious sentiments and made false propaganda and defamatory statements against the swamy and the ashram.

• Karupannan was very conversant with morphing of the images with the help of information technology. He had also demonstrated his skills in morphing images and bodies, to the other inmates.

• Subsequently, Karupannan was “degraded”. And an enraged Karupannan started blackmailing the Swamy by stating that he was in possession of morphed videos of other inmates and would expose them. The video clipping presently on air was also part of the morphed productions of Karupannan.

• “Prior enmity” is the motive behind the airing of the clippings by a Tamil TV channel

• Nithyananda had rejected Sun TV’s invitation to conduct a discourse on the channel as well as write for Kungumam, a magazine published by the group. Besides, he had also refused to deliver special discourses during Deepavali.

• “Keeping this in mind, the channel is trying to malign the image of Swami Nithyananda among his followers and spread false propaganda about him,”

• The room shown in the video does not exist inside the ashram, and the images of the Swami had been morphed using high technology by a “group”. “The man shown in the video is not Swami Nithyananda.”

• The channel had blurred out actress Ranjita’s face on March 2 and revealed it the next day only after a Tamil magazine published the pictures. The actress was threatened by Sun TV. The TV channel had not bothered to crosscheck the authenticity of the video CD with the ashram and aired the clippings in haste.

• The entire exercise is a “big conspiracy” to defame the Swami and aimed at increasing the TRP ratings of the TV channel.

• There are 300 inmates in the ashram. “So far, not a single woman has filed any complaint against the swami,”

• Swami Nityananda would present himself before the newsmen in the future and answer all questions. His ashram is working on a legal course of action on the issue.

Now is the test of Nithy’s Zennish sensibilities.

Erattupettah: Police arrested four Jihadis and a Christian in connection with their attempt to denigrate a Temple.

The Jihadi gang entered Shri Dharma Sastha Temple in Thalanadu Ayyambara and dared to cook Chicken inside the Temple premises.

Based on the complaint filed by Devotees, Police arrested Jihadis  – Saif, Naisin, Afsal and Mohammad and a Christian Jiji.

The anti Hindu assailants entered the Temple on Tuesday night and started cooking Chicken in order to desecrate the temples and threatened the few devotees who questioned them.

Following the arrest, Hundreds of Jihadis assembled in front of Police Station demanding the release of terrorists. Kerala Kshetra Samakshana  Samithi condemned the incident aimed at destroying the communal harmony.

As expected Temple desecration is not of any news value to our 24 x 7 Channels nor to our Print media. But if pork was cooked inside or near to a mosque then whole state should have been burnt down in flames and our medias will conduct opinion polls and talk shows to establish the key word – ‘Hindutva Terrorism’.

An expert has said that Jihadist terror organizations have set economic terrorism as their new target, intending to harm and paralyze Western economies, the United Sates in particular. The claim was made by Professor Gabriel Weimann, expert researcher of terrorism over the Internet at the University of Haifa in Israel.

Prof. Weimann monitored websites hosted by terrorist and terrorism-supporting organizations. “For the Jihadists, the present economic crisis signifies an ideal opportunity and platform to leverage a economic terrorist campaign,” he said. In the course of a study that was carried out over a number of years, Prof. Weimann surveyed public and encoded websites run by Islamic terrorist organizations, forums, video clips, and practically all the information related to Islamic Jihad terrorism that is flowing through the network.

According to Prof. Weimann, the focus on economic terrorism was set in motion with the September 11 attack on the Twin Towers, when Osama bin Laden stated on the video tapes that he sent out that these attacks mostly damaged the United States’ economic base and that these attacks, which cost 500,000 dollars to carry out, cost the US 500 billion dollars. Other publications by bin Laden himself and by other terrorist leaders show that they understand that Western and US power lies in their economic strength and that the jihad movement should focus on damaging this power by employing various tactics.

The tactics include, hitting international corporations directly; harming international corporations by means of 1.5 billion Muslims boycotting them, which would pressure the respective governments to adjust their policies; striking at resources that were “looted” from Muslim countries, such as oil-drilling companies in Iraq; assassinating key personalities in the global economy, most of whom they believe are Jews, and killing anyone who collaborates with these personalities. Monitoring the Muslim terrorist-related information on the Internet, Prof. Weimann also revealed that the armed struggle against the US in Iraq and Afghanistan is aimed at prolonging American expenditure on maintaining forces in these countries, and not necessarily at military defeat. The jihadists believe that this would help drain America’s financial resources and eventually critically damage the American economy. Therefore, they aim to make the US open as many military fronts around the world as possible. Another result of this new focus on Econo-Jihad is an increasing jihadist interest in websites and online information on the American and Western economies, so as to glean an understanding of how these economies can be hit the hardest.
