BÁBÁ
Distortion: AV1-17 The Term Radiation
Namaskar,
Most Márgiis are well aware that our AMPS books are not printed in a very careful way. Bábá spoke something, and our Tiljala Publishers (TP) printed something else. Here is another example. In AV1-17 our TP have printed the term ‘radiation’ which Baba did not say. See the below yellow.
Tiljala has printed → "How can vibrations emanate from the heart of a yogii who has closed all the ten doors of his person by suspending his propensities? Even if Náráyańa shifts His nucleus there, His radiation cannot unfold therefrom." (1)
Here below is a scan of the concerning page. Please pay attention to the red underlined section, where the blunder has happened in the book AV1, chapter 17, p.39.
(2)
But Baba has never spoken the term ‘radiation’ in this entire discourse. Who knows from where our TP got this term ‘radiation’ and printed it in the discourse, AV1-17.
Now it is the duty of every sincere Márgii and WT, to fix Baba's discourses.
Namaskar,
Krishna Ganguli
Responsibility Falls to Ánanda Márgiis
Bábá says, “The scriptures containing spiritual injunctions must be totally flawless.” (3) So as Ánanda Márgiis, we must take this very seriously and work together to make the printed version of Bábá's discourses perfect. By such examples as the above, it becomes clear we cannot merely sit back and expect that with time the Tiljala Publishers will fix everything.
Thirty nine years have passed since this discourse was given in 1978; There have been multiple editions published, including the 2009 Electronic Edition, with no sign of fixing the discourses going on. The Tiljala group whatever they spend all their time and resources on these days, if instead they had utilized these in fixing Bábá's discourses, then their efforts would have been worthwhile. When our Publishers are not fixing the discourses, then it falls upon Ánanda Márgiis to come forward, create pressure for change, and help in the rectification of our scripture.
