To day I received this e-mail with 2 attachments(i am attaching both the photos) showing the pictures of Mata Nirmala Devi keeping Indian Flag under her feet. It is a matter of concern for the respect of our country and to our nation that the so called GOD (people believe her to be an incarnation) can show such disrespect to the national flag.
Please put your opinion here and forward it to as many people as possible to fight against such indecent behaviour.

I strongly oppose the mentality you ppl have.....Coz if every Indian will think like this then what will happen to our country.....Probably because of this Our country is a laggard......

Here I want to cite an example:::

Some days back due to frustration from supporting US people (I work as a tech support) I made a post in forum with the subject "Do yuo feel average American are dumb in computers" and the result I received was really surprising ....Americans started abusing me like any thing (though it is a fact that they are dumb in computer.. otherwise who in the earth will not know the name of thge operating system they are using???) and I had tyo apologize to each and every reply I received and it brought down my rating from 8 to 6 in 1 day.....

But here I dun feel you guys have any feelings for your country...

LOL. You call Americans dumbasses and you expect positive reps from them? LOL.
On a serious side, if the same photo was about a muslim or a christian doing that, can you imaging the protests. All you would hear on the forum would be one angry buzz. Now you know why the minorities talk about discrimination.

And they are many more that i can post you.

Forget the american and indian and other nation. All people are one. This people who proclaim that their incarnation of some people. This people only enjoy their wealth. They love when people bow to them.

Get yourself a soul and take to understanding instead of taking about mentality. Calling american dumbass will only provoke them. Moreover Jobs in india will be reduced. Then i can say indian will be dumbass later. Why because Americans does not need a tech support from india. They can manage on their own.

@ajaykumarmeher :- That was shame on your part posting that on forum. What sort of reply did you except from them?.

very curious about that.... do you have a response, Ajay?

@topic: I wonder if it is authentic. But if it is, then there are no two ways about it. It's not only unethical/immoral, it is illegal, so whoever did that is as good as dead. I just hope some nutty RSS types don't start "fighting for her rights".

@ajaykumarmeher - I understand your fervour, but we need to understand patriotism is not about fighting with anyone who doesn't does something like mentioned in the thread. I don't believe one off incidents as such are an insult to India (just like the french wearing US flag underwears does not insult US) as over-reacting to such situations would only give others fodder. We are laggard because of our symbolic over patriotism to national symbols rather than the people. Does anyone make a hue and cry, protest over injustice to riot victims in Gujarat (Indian people), atrocites by Indian Army in Manipur (on Indian people), burning of Graham Staines (insult to India's secularism), atrocites and harassment of Indian people by Shiv Sainiks. It is people who make India and if you don't love and respect your people and have compassion for them, no country will respect you even if you wear national emblem made of god in your fore head.

You know why the British and American are where they are? Not because they protested against French wearing their flag as bikini and underwears. Because they cared about their people, spend energy and resources to make their lives easier and more secure and even today they ensure their citizens are safe and secure, wherever in the world they are. They are ready to fight for the rights of two ordinary citizens held prisoners by sending top level diplomats to protect them in an unfriendly country.

I agree with you. in general americans are dumb but they do smart jobs. i.e. they are not jack of all trades but master of few, and they do that portion very well.

So if you go telling them that they are dumb you sure gonna get brick bats.

I do not understand what is the difference... Any Indian, irrespective of his community does not have the Right to disrespect the National Flag(or the flag of any other country for that matter).... U guys do the same thing and criticize the RSS....

Please NOTE : I am not a supporter of RSS or any other community for that matter... I was just not convinced by what the orginal author was trying to say...

yes but we can lodge a complaint against them. tho we can't directly do anything but we can certainly voice against them. at least in cases like these its bound to do something good. if it wsa against a minister regarding corruption the it'll def get burried.. but this is something serious and we can approach the SC for this.

hey lets do it.. we can sign an online petition to take action against that lady... whatsay?

Let us do :). We are the only people who can change India. Only wish we could take action against minister.

Police - Can not be believed.
Lawyers - Can not be believed.
Supreme Court - Maybe.
CBI - Maybe.
President - Depends.
Prime Minister - Depends.

Hmm. Maybe someone from outside india can help india but i doubt that will ever happen. Has the minister can shut us up.

Hi All,
My family(except me) are all Sahajayogis and they are like KATTAR believers of Nirmala Devi. I somehow feel that SY is a brainwashing technique. I see how everything in my life-my family's life is related to SY and Nirmala devi. This lady sounds like a mad women to me. If you hear her speeches and see her Poojas(what the devotees offer her like 15 times a year). She is being worshipped on like Navratri,diwali,ganesh chaturthi,guru purnima,her b'day and may be another 6-7 festivals in a year. She calls herself God and leads a lavish life which I dont believe any of the saints or god have lead. I'm absolutely against her principles.
But talking about the fact now-She has too many crazy followers around the world. You shud check her website and they blindly follow her. When I asked my family abt the flag incident they just cut me out by saying those pics are fake and it is just to defame her. But i wonder no one has taken any legal action against her. I believe she should be scandalised and punished for calling herself God(Adi Shakti or whtsoever) and insulting our national flag and all the devotees who say by putting a flag on her feet they were asking her to bless the country should also be punished.

WTF?? Step on the flag and bless the country?! Man!! The sad thing about India is with so many people in the country, you always get enough saps who will believe just about anything. Normally, this wouldn't be so bad. But when it starts affecting other people who dont care about it, well...things get messy.

And personally, I respect the USA and its people a lot more than I respect Indians. Like? No...but respect definitely! I'd really appreciate NOT getting flamed for this comment because you misunderstand what I say. If you have a problem with me respecting the USA...well, yeah...flame away!
