‘Mother Teresa’ No Saint, Glorified Suffering,Media Creation

Mother Teresa’s Mission was to convert.  people of other faith to Christianity, making use of the economic backwardness and poor health of the People.

Note Teresa’s concentration on the North Eastern parts of India and her popular Office is in Kolkata with easy access to the North east of India.

she used to ill-treat the patients , had tantrums thrown in private but in Public she was the personification of Sobriety and ,Piety and concern for the sufferings of the Poor while she glorified ‘Suffering’ in private.

This has been confirmed by a Study by a Canadian Group.

Also it is worth remembering how she was ‘beatified’ by The Vatican even when thee were murmurs against it.

I have always looked down on ‘beatifying’ people by The Church!’

How an Institution which earmarks billions of Dollars for religious Conversion, goes about the task of converting people and setting targets for Conversion can ‘beatify’ if not as an incentive for future people to convert more.

Please read my post on the spending of Money by the Vatican.

Now Read on.

Mother Teresa

A study conducted by Canadian researchers has called Mother Teresa ”anything but a saint”, a creation of an orchestrated and effective media campaign who was generous with her prayers but miserly with her foundation’s millions when it came to humanity’s suffering.

The controversial study, to be published this month in the journal of studies in religion/sciences called Religieuses, says that Teresa — known across the world as the apostle of the dying and the downtrodden — actually felt it was beautiful to see the poor suffer.

According to the study, the Vatican overlooked the crucial human side of Teresa — her dubious way of caring for the sick by glorifying their suffering instead of relieving it.

Instead, the Vatican went ahead with her beatification followed by canonization “to revitalize the Church and inspire the faithful especially at a time when churches are empty and the Roman authority is in decline”.

Researchers Serge Larivee and Genevieve Chenard from the University of Montreal‘s department of psychoeducation, and Carole Senechal of the University of Ottawa’s faculty of education, analysed published writings about Mother Teresa and concluded that her hallowed image, “which does not stand up to analysis of the facts, was constructed, and that her beatification was orchestrated by an effective media campaign”.

According to Larivee, facts debunk Teresa’s myth. He says that the Vatican, before deciding on Teresa’s beatification, did not take into account “her rather dubious way of caring for the sick, her questionable political contacts, her suspicious management of the enormous sums of money she received, and her overly dogmatic views regarding … abortion, contraception, and divorce.”

At the time of her death, Teresa had 517 missions or “homes for the dying” as described by doctors visiting several of these establishments in Kolkata. They welcomed the poor and sick in more than 100 countries. Two-thirds of the people coming to these missions hoped to a find a doctor to treat them, while the other third lay dying without receiving apt care.

If a Religion is strong in its fundamentals , it does not need money to propagate it.

One of my reader friends in a comment stated that God’s  words  needs to be propagated

I disagree.God , if He needs propagation, He is no God.

Religion’s strength lies  not in numbers but in the solace offered to Man.

Fixing targets for conversion and calling ‘Age of Asia’ is anathema to Religion.

While some religions resort to sword some resort to bribing.

VATICAN DOES NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT PEDOPHILIA. 29 Million Children Abused?

If the information provided is correct,it is over due that the Church understood that corrective action needs to be taken immediately, both in the interests of the Church and the Society it serves.

Religion, to be useful to Mankind, must understand the limitations of Human Nature and try to elevate human beings taking into account such limitations.

Sex is a basic instinct.It can not be suppressed.It csn be regulated.

Normal sexual instinct when thwarted will always result in perverse and abnormal behavior.

Hinduism understands these facts and does not proscribe sexual activity but exhorts people to be moderate in enjoyment of  objects of senses, be it Food,Sex.

It does not prohibit marriage nor does it lay down rules that are very difficult to follow.

It provides various systems to suit people of different nature.

The main goal is to Realize Self or reach God as one inclines.

After all Religion is meant for Man.

Time that religions are less formal to be of any use to man.

If not the religion shall  become extinct and leave the followers in a vacuum.

And a tool of effective Social Control will be lost.

Story:

According to Psychology Today and related research, more than 29 million catholics have been abused by priests and members of catholic orders.  The sheer scale of the horrors perpetrated by the catholic clergy worldwide and the dawning reality upon catholics that the church had actively sought to deny victims redress and protection, has brought universal disgrace to it.

The sexual crimes committed against children and adolescents by Catholic priest have figured prominently in the media over the past decade, and rocked the Catholic Church the world over. The “sins of the fathers” have been more than matched by the sins of the church hierarchy which showed more concern for the protection of the abusive priests than for the prevention of future violations or for the suffering caused to the victims.

Ancient India during sixth century BC

Now that India is giving birth to its twenty-ninth State, Telengana,it is worth remembering that ancient India had fifty-six kingdoms.

Some of them are quite large and were Empires, some small like the Chera Kingdom in Tamil Nadu.

It is interesting to note that these small kingdoms were as prosperous if not more than the large kingdoms’ say in the period of Ramayana,Mahabharata.

The Tamil Chera King, Perunchotru Udiyan Cheralathan fed  both the armies of the Epic battle of Mahabharata.

For more details on this  read my post on this,

He used to liaise with both the warring groups, such was the respect he commanded and so was his states prosperity.

Even During Ramayana period the prosperity of the smaller states were in evidence.

What i have gleaned from these and other historical facts, in India, Austrian Empire, i that a State is prosperous if the Government is good and there are development activities.

The academic discussion that large Sates have more resources at their disposal, smaller easy to administer …are mere arm-chair discussions.

i was curious to find how ancient Map of India looked like.

Here are some Maps of ancient India from the Ramayana, Mahabharata days.

Alien Code in Human DNA,Science?

The DNA codes, “ human genetic code is embedded with a “designer label” that may be an indelible stamp of a master extraterrestrial civilization that preceded us by many millions or billions of years. Researchers Vladimir I shCherbak of al-Farabi Kazakh National University of Kazakhstan, and Maxim A Makukov of the Fesenkov Astrophysical Institute, hypothesize that an intelligent signal embedded in our genetic code would be a mathematical and semantic message that cannot be accounted for by Darwinian evolution.”

How logical is this?

There is DNA and it contains Code,Fact.

 DNA IS ALIEN FOOTPRINT

It has ‘”Simple arrangements of the code reveal an ensemble of arithmetical and ideographical patterns of symbolic language,”-Pure Guess work, I would call it fantasy.

Any arrangement must have an arrangement.

If it has no arrangement, you would call it ‘Randomly Arranged”

Would you conclude that Random arrangement is not possible and therefore there is Alien Embedded  the DNA?

Right now, you are short of Facts for this assumption, call it a Theory.

Next point is that when you fantasize with no facts to back up, you flaunt it a ‘Scientific Theory’ and it is accepted without any demur!

But present a Fact and say ‘ we can not explain , it might be God’s Way”, then people jump and decry it .

Then all rational Explanations(!) flow.

That there is No God or Principle and those who are mild in approach and even Scientists say.’It is Nature, but not God”

Pray tell me, what is The Nature you are talking about?

Trees, Woods, Forests, Physical Laws?

Your own Science now tells us that there is No Universal Law that operates for All The Universe/s, as there are Multiverse(Quantum).

So which Physical law are you talking about?

Which Tree or Forest or principle?

If it is a Principle, you can not perceive it directly, as you can’t Gravity or Electricity.

The Principle is inferred by its Effects.

When the same point that Reality or Brahman is  a Principle, in Philosophy and Hinduism, you call it nonsense?

Now who is talking sense?

Alien Embedded DNA

I  subscribe to the view that our DNA might have been tampered by Aliens or a Superior race.

Bit for different reasons.

 “Calling it “biological SETI”, shCherbak and Makukov argue that the scheme has much greater longevity and chance of detecting alien life than a transient extraterrestrial radio transmission, the ‘Discovery News’ reported.

“Once fixed, the code might stay unchanged over cosmological timescales, in fact, it is the most durable construct known. Therefore it represents an exceptionally reliable storage for an intelligent signature. Once the genome is appropriately rewritten the new code with a signature will stay frozen in the cell and its progeny, which might then be delivered through space and time,” the researchers wrote in the journal Icarus.

They said in order to pass the designer label test, any patterns in the genetic code must be highly statistically significant and possess intelligent-like features that are inconsistent with any natural know process. Researchers said their detailed analysis of the human genome displays a thorough precision-type orderliness in the mapping between DNA’s nucleotides and amino acids.

“Simple arrangements of the code reveal an ensemble of arithmetical and ideographical patterns of symbolic language,” said researchers. The scheme includes the use of decimal notation, logical transformations, and the use of the abstract symbol of zero.
