note 4 about AO (tentative name)
There are many people that hide selfish expectations within their hearts,
speak with very sweet loving words, pretend to show true divine love and
cheat others, in order to achieve their personal desires. These selfish
temptations, which include such things as cheating other people, indulging
them in short term pleasures and holding them in expectations, only serve to eliminate the purity of this divine love. ‐February 2008−
Some who have not attained the state of wisdom and who have no spiritual
experience or maturity imagine themselves to be a Guru and start to preach.
The students who study under them―without maturity―will not develop. At
the beginning, they may not understand what is going on, but when they
are adversely affected they will realize. ‐11th July, 2006−
In autumn 2007, all of a sudden, some named 'a branch of Prema Japan' appeared
in Tokyo. It said that its activities were international exchange tour,
inner psychological seminar and so on. At the time, the name of Japan official
website introducing Swami Premananda was 'Prema Japan.' So, that 'a branch of Prema Japan' looked as if it were associated with Japan
official website introducing Swami Premananda. (See note 2-2) Actually, one of Japanese Premananda Members asked Japan Contact
Persons whether some named 'a branch' was Japan official website associate.
Later on, in 2010, Japan Contact persons came to find the name of the 'branch'
in the account identifier for AO's lecture fee.
In summer 2005, as 'Prema Japan,' Japan official website introducing Swami
Premananda started on Internet. Within the year, at the end of the year,
AO went to Sri Lanka to find the Sri Lankan people involved with Swamiji
and started preparation for using all of the associated people with Swamiji
for his own gains.
The following is Japan Contact persons' e-mail of December 2008 to ashram
and Swamiji's reply to it.
Date: 9th December 2008
To Centre Department, Sri Premananda Ashram,
Namaskaram.
We have to inform you about attentions about some movements surrounding
Swamiji in Japan.
If Mr.AO gets connected to Ashram or if he comes to Ashram, please be careful
because he wants to use Swamiji's name for his own benefit or his fame.
He is running a 'spiritual business' company.
As you know and we told PR department before, we made our website 'India,
spirituality in danger' in Japanese and English, showing the informations
about justice for Kanchi Shankaracharya, who was arrested for false charge,
and also in order to help Swamiji from another direction.
And the website is well known and appreciated as high-quality one in Japan.
So, Mr.AO used our above website for his business.
He had an intention to cause his 'clients' misunderstanding that Shanakara
website is his own and he behaved accordingly.
Actually, he did nothing for helping Kanchi Shankaracharya while He apparently
was in hostile environment, although he was about to have an opportunity
to meet Him in India before.
And then, as soon as Mr.AO saw that Shankaracharya is not longer in hostile
environment, he planed a 'tour' to visit Him with his own 70 Japanese 'clients.'
We know well that it is because our website from Japan helps Shankaracharya
much that He met extraordinarily those Japanese people.
Mr. AO is teaching mantra meditation at his company and its fee is about
652 euros (current rate of the time) at every stages for two-day workshop
and there are four stages.
Those so-called students pay for membership fee every year.
Moreover, he plans 'tours with him' for his students every year.
In this way, he is a businessman running a spiritual business company.
He always uses any people, every opportunity for his own benefit.
He is always hiding his own desires and he tries to make people think in
a favourable way to him, and he uses them so that all things turn in his
favour.
This time, he used Shankaracharya's name for his own benefit, his fame.
And now, he also wants to use Swamiji's name, who is well known as a Avatar,
a true spiritual teacher in Japan because of our Prema Japan activity.
Although he knew us and our activity, he did nothing for helping Swamiji
and he did nothing for our activity of helping Swamiji until now, while
He was in hostile environment.
But now, he knows that circumstances are apparently turning into good ones
for Swamiji and so he wants to use His name.
Mr.AO keeps to hide his own desire cleverly and he pretends to be a good
man.
For his own desire to become 'important one' in organizations, he has caused
big disorganization twice in Sai Baba activity in Japan.
We never recommend Mr.AO as a coordinator and so on.
We are very careful for his movement.
You also please be careful not to allow him to use Swamiji's name for his
own benefit.
Jai Prema Shanti!

<Swamiji's reply>
To: Kumaran and Kurinji
From: Centre department
Date: 22nd January 2009
Dear Kumaran and Kurinji,
Namaskaram! Best greetings to you from the Ashram. We received Swamiji's
reply to your e-mail of 9th December 2008. Please find it below.
“My Dear Kumaran and Kurinji,
Namaskaram! I received your e-mail of 9th December 2008. I read it carefully
and understand what you wrote.
I have given the necessary instructions to the Centre Department and have
instructed them to inform the International Coordinators.
I am with you in all your activities. I am guiding you and I bless you.
Everything will happen in a good way. Jai Prema Shanti.
Yours in the Lord
SWAMI PREMANANDA”
With kindest regards
Yours in Service
PREMANANDA ASHRAM MANAGEMENT

His art of self-protection, his every action arising from his hidden desire
to be the top authority figure, is spreading the smokescreen of glamour
that there is no means for people to contact with saints except through
the intermediary of AO himself. As the result, he is preventing people
from contacting directly with saints and learning about light or God directly
from them. That his way has caused to produce a lot of people who want
to be such a 'special person between saints and general people' as AO.
SM is also following his way.
The writer notes the above to help people remove the glamour.
(glamour; illusion of astral thoughts)
・・・Once you have got a human birth you should realize yourself. In order to know yourself it is not necessary that you get advice from
anyone, you don't need to read books, there is no need for book knowledge
or any university degrees. ・・・
Nowadays people play politics. For the sake of those politics they place issues like religion and caste
central and create this political drama. You should not believe that this drama is spirituality.・・・
One does not automatically derive any benefit from doing pujas, chanting
mantras or offering flowers; all these are rituals you do. Lighting lamps and incense sticks, showing
camphor flames, wafting sambrani, offering flowers, doing pujas, these
are all the preset rules and procedures you follow to satisfy your mind
and to make it one-pointed. You have to mature yourselves without these rules. ・・・
Man can make himself one-pointed and controlled and there is nothing that
he cannot do. You should not think that you cannot change your bad habits.
You should think that you can do it and you should try to change yourselves.
How can others (who are hiding their politics from you) change you (who
seek spirituality)? Why should others (who are hiding their politics from
you, AO) give you (who follow spiritual path) advice?
(November 2007)
・・・I have said earlier, Abishekam is not a game; it is a very serious matter.
You are literally handling divine energy and, as such, you must take this
very seriously. It is not good to perform such rituals without care and
sincerity. (If you are not prepared to have genuine selfless devotion and do it without
striving to reach the Divine) This can have adverse effects. ・・・(March 2000)
AO, and his people whom he drew to himself in order to make his position
secure considered the series of movement concerned with Swami Premananda
as their business tool.
Therefore, Japan Contact persons appointed by Swamiji were obstacles to
success of their business, in which AO had to be the only authority figure
of the activities concerned with Swami Premananda.
Without having his direct hand in, by manoeuvring his people around him
(including the 'cult' agents), and by extending his influence among Swamiji's
devotees in Europe, Sri Lanka and India, AO tried to force Japan Contact
persons into resigning. In that process, he has been using conveniently
the 'cult' woman agent who speaks French and Italian fluently, who is his
regular client, as his liaison. Because of the 'cult' woman agent, many
'cult' French agents has crept into Premananda Centre in France. They were
sowing lies, and they made the devotees in France and Europe to believe
that Japan Contact persons were bad for them. That led to the situation
in which Swamiji's devotees in Europe and Sri Lanka and persons concerned
in India were against Swamiji and Japan Contact persons.
Now here are all the Coordinators… All your actions and everything that
you do is known to God. What are you going to do in your countries? Are
you going to do some good things there? What are you going to do? Are you
going to think about all this as a Shivaratri dream or are you going to
follow it up? (2010 Mahashivaratri)
They are following it up.
As a result, the present conditions of Ashram are as described in the following
Swamiji's words.
…The seventh Premananda like to be in Premananda Ashram. The ninth Premananda
will surely not be here. The ninth Premananda will never like to be here.
I know that. The tenth Premananada will not be here either. …(2009 Mahashivaratri)
In this way, AO has been the 'backstage manipulator' of confusions in all
Premananda activity since Japan official website introducing Swami Premananda
started. The Ashram tumult of 2010 Mahashivaratri is one of them. He
provided the 'cult' more occasions to get involved in Ashram and Centres.
Simply stated, AO had prepared the way for the 'cult' to assassinate Swamiji.
And using AO as the 'cult's front for India, Catholic, Ayurveda in US
and so on, more and more 'cult' agents have been getting together around
him.
autumn 2009
Q: What attitude should we develop in order to progress spiritually?
Swamiji's answer: You should always carry out your duties and do your work. I never say
otherwise. However, you should know one thing ー what do you give your first
preference to? Once you have discovered that, come and get a private interview
with Swamiji. In that interview you have to open your heart and talk. In
three minutes, you have to open your heart and tell me everything. Some
people need to talk for one hour before they can open their hearts. That
is because they will put the key inside the lock and keep turning it continuously.
The key won't break but it will just keep turning round inside the lock.
That is because you don't know how to open the lock with the key. You have to open the lock within three to five minutes. You have to say,
"I want to develop in this way; this is what I like, this is what
I don't like."
You should not think that I will meditate and find out about you and then
advise you. I don't have the time to do that these days. I used to do that
in the early days. I would sit next to someone and tell them the story
about another person who was sitting a few feet away. Nowadays, if you
want to get the correct advise from me, you have to open your heart in
five minutes. You should tell me what you have in your heart and mind within
that time. Then, in reply to what you tell me, I might have to teach you
for five years. If you do what I tell you to do in a proper way then you
will pass on to the next stages immediately. According to me, you are a student in spirituality. It doesn't matter who you are, my duty is to teach you. That is my duty.
(Unlike you) I can't spend time on checking whether you are learning it
or not. The reason is because now I am like that.
Jai Prema Shanti!
