A Spiritual NONSENSE at Velliyangiri ...
Many of us would have gone to Isha Yoga center at Velliyangiri adivaram.. near Coimbatore... popularly known as Dhyanalingam. I too went a few times for meditations. One of my friend came back after 7 days of Samyama.. so I know what is going on, a bit.
The issue is, they say, they are the worshipers of Vana Shree ( Forest God ). But what they do on the Maha Shivarathri is a NONSENSE! They litterally lit the area with a few thousand Lights and in the name of meditation or celebration they creat sounds of a few thousands watts... having no regard for the fauna/ animal life in that area located at the edge of the forest. Thousands of cars, and vehicles adds to the air pollution... and in the entire exercise you can see their double standards, having no regard for the natural serenity of the holy hill and forest.
Last year drums player Siva mani... worlds best/fastest !! ... but i dont know whether they are aware of people like Rick Allen,"Kenny" (or Kenney) Jones ..., came and blasted or added great noise to the otherwise silent, animals rich forest and this year Remo it seems. I dont blame these musicians... since I know Sivamani from his days at OSHO and Mr Remo has personally sent me a card in those Bombay city days!
If PSG institutions could not build their education institutions in Anaikatti forests... how come this Guru is allowed to convert acres of agri land very near to the forest to build halls, residential complex and guest houses.. by converting a rich natural jungle into brown colured concrete jungles ? I know the masks of the indian gurus very well... and aware of Mr Jaggis Chicken eating Tirupur days.. where he started his spiritual business... ( in those days he was reporting to Vinay & Dutta of Bangalore... in the name of an instructor of Sahajasthithi yoga ... originally their [Vinay & Dutta's idea] along with some friends. I came to know that Pankaj Raveendran is now in Madurai!!
I dont want to go deep into his personal issues but can he show some responsibility by bringing down those few thousand watts or noise pollution in the midnight at the EDGE of the natural forest?? If they dont... we can assume that planting trees at Velliyangiri and Removing bags at the foothills is nothing but a publicity stunt or an answer to their guilty consciousness !
Those who share my views can mail them at yogacentre@ishafoundation.org ... to stop THIS NONSENSE!
Shiva will be angry on REMO if he performed with a few thousands watts of light and sound at the edge of the forest at midnight !!
