Social Punishment is the 30th chapter of Ananda Marga Caryacarya Part 1 written by Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar.[1]

Chapter synopsis

Sarkar told, anybody having committed an antisocial act will have to undergo a severe fast or punishment of any other type prescibed by an ácárya/á for the atonement of the sin. He told, only the person at fault – not any other member of his/her family should be penalized and as soon as the defect is rectified, the punishment or penalty should be withdrawn.

Allegation against Ananda Margii

Sarkar told, if someone brings any allegation against the conduct of any Ananda Margi, it should be forwarded to an Acarya/a of a centre. If the Acarya/a of centre is absent, it should be forwarded to the other acarya/a who has taken the responsibility of further guiding the accused Margi regarding spiritual practices. If the second ácárya/á is not easily available, the matter should be brought to the notice of the upabhukti pramukha or the general bhukti pradhána concerned. Within a week a tribunal should be consisted to investigate the matter.
