Aadheenam
18 January 2014
The Navanirmana Sene is a Hindu Extremist Militant group with a history of attacking His Divine Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda and working closely with media channels. In 2012, they gathered in the Suvarna Television attack and assassination attempt. In 2013, they executed two independent attacks on the Bengaluru Aadheenam. Isolating His Divine Holiness from His devotees, and trying to shake the sacred connection between guru and disciple.
On 18 Jan 2014 the Navanirmana Sene heard from their spy parties that Paramahamsa Nithyananda was leaving the aadheenam on one of His visits to devotees’ homes whose grandmother was paralyzed and facing the last moments of her life. He had promised to liberate her and be with her in those last minutes, so he arranged the trip to her home.
However, the Navanirmana Sena who grabbed every opportunity to assassinate His Divine Holiness, never wanted to leave any scope for the local devotees in the city to maintain any relationship with their Guru or the aadheenam. The moment they heard about His Divine Holiness’s visit to the city, they were determined to execute mob lynching and by this kill His Divine Holiness.
They gathered a mob at the gate of Nithyananda Peetham, Bengaluru Aadheenam with the intent to storm inside and murder His Divine Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda upon him leaving. Upon finding out what they were planning on bombarding Him His Divine Holiness cancelled the trip to the devotee’s home, promising that from wherever He was He will liberate the devotees’ grandmother.
When they reached the aadheenam, 30 members of the sene, dressed in uniform white and black, reached angrily across the gate, violently trying to grab the sanyasis who secured the entrance of the aadheenam. Their anger grew as Paramahamsa Nithyananda’s expected arrival was delayed. As time passed, members of the sena even began climbing up the gate and standing on it, flailing their arms and shouting abuses at the sanyasis (Hindu monks) inside.
When they could not enter beyond the gate, these mob lynchers burned flyers and posters with the photo of His Divine Holiness on it and finally the effigy of His Divine Holiness just outside the Bengaluru Aadheenam to send the clear message that these mob lynchers were after His life.
Upon hearing about the series of events that took place, the devotee who was promised a visit called the secretary of His Divine Holiness. She tearfully shared, “I can’t believe that through everything Swamiji is going through He still takes the time to attend to us! Pati’s (grandmother in Tamil) death was so smooth. Again and again she was saying that she could feel that Swamiji was with her. She was in tears of joy in her last moments! I am so grateful for Swamiji for being with us”
