- synopsis
- Reader of the questions: Sw Anand Vimal.
- Question 1 from Ma Jivan Mary
- Beloved master, are your sannyasins all rebels?
- Is it true that a rebel is born and not made?
- Or are we born rebels but tamed and conditioned by our societies?
- Question 2 from Ma Rabia Prabhudasi
- Beloved master, doesn't the word 'rebel' imply fighting against something? The word itself comes from Latin, rebellare, fighting back. When you speak on the rebel, you speak of it in a positive sense. Are you changing the meaning of the word?
- Question 3 from Sw Devageet
- Beloved master, is sannyas a training for rebellion? Are you preparing us to be warriors, fighting for the right to be individuals in a society which labels truth as lies, and calls lies the truth?
- I have just read David Yallop's book, "In God's name", in which he clearly lays out the role of the Roman Catholic church in murder, terrorism, embezzlement, drug running, and major and continuing swindling of incredible sums of money; manipulation of politics in America, Italy, South America, Poland... The list is as impressive as it is far from the message of the carpenter from Nazareth. Will you please comment?
