Kamothe Nyanpith opening ceremony.

Namaskar Shri Chandrakant Chaugule,

I am naamdharak of Navi Mumbai branch and will like to clear the queries made by you as per the best of my knowledge.

Navi Mumbai branch is conducting all activities under the guidance of our trustee- Shri Sunil More who is also the treasurer of Jeevanvidya Mission and own a C. A. firm.

The money which is being collected is not only for the programme but also for other projects of JVM like Kamothe, Karjat etc. Navi Mumbai branch plans to donate the money from remaining amount to JVM trust.

JVM is a registered trust which requires money to conduct various activities like andhshraddha-boovabaji nirmulan, removal of various addictions, enlightenment of people against fatalastic destinism and ill treatment to women, patriotism etc. Money is also required for various dnayn peeth projects at Kamothe, Karjat etc. and therefore it is totally justified to collect money from the people who are willingly wish to contribute.
Secondly there is total transparency in all JVM's accounts and Satguru himself takes interest in supervising the maintaince of records. He was the deputy Secretary finance in Secretariat hence knows best about the money matters.

There are able, educated, specialised persons who are looking after the financial matters of JVM.There are internal auditors for each branch and branch account is supervised by the H. O. of JVM.

We as disciples of Shari Satguru know that we should never force people to donate money but should take money who willingly wish to contribute. So the question creating bad impression does not arise.

We should spare our time for Shri Satguru kaary. But it may not be possible for all to give time for doing seva. So such people should wait for an opportunity and pray for it. Those who can not do seva bodily, (dehane seva) can do seva by other means if it is possible for them.

There can be various thoughts of different people over doing grand function and doing the programme in very simplistic way. As number of naamdharaks is increased over the period of time expenditure is also increased to organise such functions. Most of the naamdharaks want grand function and are willing to contribute by doing tan-man-dhan seva. They think that this will give everybody more happiness and secondly local branches get chance to organise such functions once in 2-3 years and many namdharaks want to participate in dance, drama, skits etc.

Pralahad dada once said that we should not see the financial benefits while organising these functions but there are other benefits which we should not overlook. Many namdharaks gather and meet each other when such events are organised. All participating naamdharaks stay in Satguru anusandhan, people get chance to Satguru seva by tan-man-dhan and increase their punya and this is the main advantage which we must not forget.

We have instructions to accept donations of 5 Rs onwards.

May everybody chant VP!
