Ravi S. Iyer: Spiritual

Last modified on 22nd April 2020 22nd April 2020 Update: I had an inner urge to name-snip the names of some person(s) in this post and so have done so. I felt it appropriate to put up a recent comment exchange of mine with another Facebook user on my Facebook post, https://www.facebook.com/ravi.s.iyer.7/posts/1778072492409320 , as this separate post (slightly edited). Mr. Ap Ramesh wrote (slightly edited): about Marvyn (Mervyn Hughes), you please take it that they can never file any complaint. --snip-- cannot lodge complaints. they are doing --snip-- things. why worry. sir, you keep the fight on light body. let me assure you that if they file a complaint on you, we will lodge 100 complaints on --snip-- and --snip--. this is a promise. ---- I (Ravi) responded: Ap Ramesh, Thank you so much for your support. I know that the probability of Mervyn Hughes himself filing a police and legal complaint against me is very low, as first he will have to come out in the o...

Given below are the contents of a recent Facebook post of mine, https://www.facebook.com/ravi.s.iyer.7/posts/1778278835722019 . Vr Ganti sir, thank you so much for your strong support for me in the matter dealing with Mervyn Hughes' (perhaps a Fake Id claiming to be based in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA) threat to file police and legal complaints against me for my writings against Muddenahalli group FALSE BELIEF of Madhusudan Rao Naidu being able to communicate with an invisible and inaudible to others, so called subtle body of Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba based in Muddenahalli. I will not forget such support from you, sir. Your firm stand and courageous work on Sathya and Dharma in regard to this matter of Muddenahalli FALSE BELIEF is very admirable and, I am sure, will go down in the history of the Sathya Sai movement as a signal contribution from you, sir. Thanks for accepting me as a Facebook friend. --- end Facebook post content --------- Mr V.R. Ganti wrote in a commen...

Given below are the contents of my recent Facebook post, https://www.facebook.com/ravi.s.iyer.7/posts/1778072492409320 . Just did some browsing to see if there is some info. on the net about filing cyber complaints in Andhra Pradesh. Got some interesting links: 1) http://www.cidap.gov.in/cid/template/cyber/crime/Cyber-Crimes - Gives overall info. about Andhra Pradesh cyber crimes. Within this it is cyber stalking/harassment that would be the relevant category for those of us who are being harassed by Muddenahalli group seemingly Fake Id persons like Mervyn Hughes. Cyber stalking/harassment is covered in http://www.cidap.gov.in/cid/template/cyber/crime/frauds/5 . An extract from above link: What is Cyber Stalking / Harassment Cyber stalking is repeated use of the Internet or other electronic communication to harass or frighten someone. This may be done over social networking media like facebook, twitter etc or over e-mails. If you are victimized so, immediately such instances s...

Given below are contents of my recent Facebook post, https://www.facebook.com/ravi.s.iyer.7/posts/1778003412416228 . I was informed about a post by Mervyn Hughes here: https://www.facebook.com/mervyn.hughes.370/posts/1277371458940068 , where he is attacking me (verbally). I will overlook his ignorance about industry experts teaching in Indian academia using Visiting Faculty designations which is perfectly in accordance with the main Indian academic administrative authority - University Grants Commission. [I wonder whether he knows that Bill Gates, (late) Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg who is a co-founder of Facebook which we are using for these conversations, are/were not Ph.D. and in fact, did not complete their graduation. So does that mean they cannot teach in USA universities??? I think they would be welcomed as Adjunct ...

Muddenahalli group Facebook Fake Id people like Mervyn Hughes and Sita Thomas should take note and change their bad ways. Indian President, Shri Pranab Mukherjee's daughter, Smt. Sharmista Mukherjee, a Congress party functionary, put up a Facebook post related to the incident here: https://www.facebook.com/sharmisthamukherjee/posts/10153993515419613 . Here's the text of her short post: This pervert Partha Mandal is sending me dirty sexual messages. My 1st reaction was to ignore & block him. But then I thought the silence wud encourage him to find other victims. Just blocking & reporting is not enough. I strongly feel such ppl shd be publicly exposed & humiliated. I'm posting screenshots of his profile & messages he sent me. I'm also tagging him. Pls share this post & tag this rat as a msg that these pervert acts will not be taken lightly. --- end Smt. Sharmista Mukherjee's post contents --- I (Ravi) commented as follows in this post of...

Lagaa chunri me daag is an oldie Hindi film song classical music style (evergreen hit song of Manna Dey) with a spiritual undercurrent. I could not find a good English translation of the lyrics. The first video listed below (with the film picturisation) has English captions but I am not so satisfied with the English translation. I don't have the time to do a full English translation of the song. But I thought of providing the English translation of the two lines of the song which provide a sort-of spiritual key with which to spiritually interpret the earlier words of the song. The lines in Hindi are: Kori chunariya aatma mori, mail hai maya jaal Woh duniya mera babul ka ghar, ye duniya sasural My English translation of it: The clean garment (dupatta/cloth covering the top of a woman's dress which can also be used as a veil and is symbolic of her honour) is my Aatma (soul), the dirt is the web of Maya (Lord's illusion) That world (Lord's world/heaven) is my f...
