Develop a sense of belonging to the Unit
This Conference has laid down that women must not be members of any Unit, except Mahila Vibhaag. For any public function or celebration they may arrange, they should seek the help and guidance of the Seva Samithi. Every Samithi must start a Mahila Vibhaag without delay and Mahila Vibhaags must consider Bal Vihaars as their most important and most useful activity. The Seva Dhal, the Bhajan Mandali, the Study Circle, the Prashaanthi Vidwanmahaasabha must all be guided and activated by some member of the Samithi selected for the purpose and nominated for the work. They are all limbs of the Samithi of the place with its 11, 15 or 25 members. The routine expenses of the Samithi or the Seva Dhal, etc., must be shared by the members only. There should not be any attempt to collect from non-members. For special occasions, voluntary gifts of material or services from devotees may be received. But, there is no need for a Treasurer; the Joint Secretary can manage whatever accounting there is. Every member of the Samithi must be given some particular work so that he may develop a sense of belonging and he may contribute his skill, intelligence, faith and devotion to the promotion of the objects of the Association. The members of the Samithi must all partake in the Nagarasankerthan. If they have not that steadfast faith, why have their names on the list? They should be active in saadhana and attend saadhana camps, arranged by the Samithi. Units should have no contacts with cheats Embodiments of Divine Aathma! This Bhaarath land is the centre of spiritual progress for ages past and the region where Divine incarnations re-establish Dharma for the good of humanity. In order to make known My majesty and My glory as the Divine that has Incarnated, miraculous happenings of an amazing nature do take place in certain areas. Taking advantage of the attraction that those happenings draw upon them, many misuse them for personal propaganda and aggrandizement. They trade for money the Vibhuuthi (sacred ash) that the pictures in their altars shower! They go about pretending that they are "superior devotees" of a higher order and conferring boons and blessings on the innocent folk whom they fleece. Others put forth false claims that vibhuuthi is emanating from the pictures of Baaba in their homes, that Amrith (nectar) is dripping from them or that material objects are falling from them, like written answers to questions. Samithis and other Units should have no contact with such cheats and crooks. Any one who is attached to such or who encourages such can be immediately removed. There are others who claim that I am speaking through them, and answering questions put to them. These people must be either insane or hysteria-affected or they are possessed by some ghost or by the greed to earn money thereby. I can only tell you that it is not I that speaks through them. I do not need media; nor do I need substitutes or subsidiaries or representatives. There are some crooks who are publicising that I have allotted them some regions for ministration by them on My behalf, because, they say, My devotees have increased so much that I am unable to attend to all of them, single-handed! On the face of it, this is an absurd lie. Moreover, consider another aspect. -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "saimsg" group.
