Bhagavad Gita As it is to Manav Dharma

Reproduced from 17/7/11. 

'Become a human before becoming a Hindu, Moslim, Christian, Buddhist or whatever you like', is the key message of the  cult widely known as Manav Dharma. The founder of this cult's son Vibhu maharaj gave a lecture on the dynamic of mind to his followers in Amstelveen on 17th July for the first time in The Netherlands. There was a gathering of about fifty people mostly from Indian, Bhutanese and Nepalese cultural background.

Mind is the force that, if not in control, is an enemy of the self and when in control and engaged in the devotional service of the supreme, it is then the best friend of the self. This has been explained to Arjun by Sri Krishna about five thousand  years ago when he descended on earth and retold the Bhagavad Gita. Mind cannot me suppressed, see chapter 6 verse 5-12,  but it can be engaged in the devotional service so that the individuals does not have to suffer the bad reactions of the deeds undertaken. This process is expounded also in the Naamhat centers of ISKCON. Bhagavad Gita As It Is, the most worldwide recognized edition  explained and published in more than 80 languages by Srila Prabhupada was presented to Vibhu ji and he liked that so much.   Vibhu and his followers are good in keeping the Vedic cultural standards and performed dances and devotional songs. Also vegetarian meal was served. Vedic culture is indeed a means for anyone to come closer to each other despite any differences.

Satsang in Utrecht

The next day in Utrecht the same type of program was held in the house of a resettled Bhutanese DB Budathoki. Members of six families altogether performed the sankirtan program that was very interesting and meaningful. Despite some divisions created by the founding leaders of the Bhutanese community in The Netherlands namely LP Dhakal and Ram Karki, due to their  politically motivated ideologies and intolerance to ambiguities and the untransparent  financial administration, Bhutanese here are gradually stepping into unity, as a result of the Vedic cultural programs organised every 3rd Saturdays since 2002 in the Naamhat Boxtel. It has been encouraging since 2002 to all to come together and maintain the Vedic culture they all originally belong to and reintegrate in the Dutch society with their own social values to offer.
