Oneness… yeah right!

Posted on December 30, 2007 by Ashwin

I don’t read tamil magazines a lot, but for the last couple of months I keep seeing in them advertisements endorsing what I believe to be the most dubious, nonsensical and probably the least appealing ‘divine couple’. Nicknamed as “Amma Bhagavan” , the male half has been around for a longer time in the name of “Kalki Bhagavan”… apparently the female half wanted in on the fetid glory showered on the male half by stupefied fools.

Propagating a preposterous and perverted philosophy of “Oneness”, all this “divine couple” and their group does is charge upwards of $5000 for their “oneness blessing” process trainings! (Damn! And here I am, having second thoughts about whether I should really pay $500 for my scrum master training! Life is strange!!)

And here’s the kill… from the FAQ page of the web site of the ‘university’ started by this… this… err… whatever

08. What is your response to the recent allegations against the movement?
We suggest that you follow your heart.

Yeah, follow your heart… fo..ll..ow.. yo..ur… he..ar..t! Nicely done! Couldn’t have thought of a better answer. Sounds like a Jedi from the Star Wars movies, doesn’t it? How else could they put the blame on the person if things went sour in the course of time for him/ her? “Hey! Your heart told you to join us! We didn’t! *shrug*”.

For those of you who would like to know more about these, head over to http://guruphiliac.blogspot.com, where you can find a lot of information on this group and more.

    The correct word should be “world”. Not “India”.

    You must have heard this line in a popular song… “Religion is the reason The world is breaking up into pieces”.

    I don’t agree with it because this is another instance of people blaming everything else except themselves for such problems.

    Religion is something inherent to humanity and human existence… regardless of where or when a person is born. Even if there was a situation where there is no religion, groups of people will still identify themselves with some practices and beliefs… hey, it happens even in the scientific community!!!

    Will science itself become a religion? May be it has already!
