My Daughter join the Cult

This is a response blog given by my teacher. It is a Sunday reading task. 

Nityanand

Tonally, My Daughter Joined a Cult follows the outline of other documentaries in this genre. In that there is a clear arc of the rise, rise and rise of such self-styled godmen leading to the revelation of their moral bankruptcy. What makes it an intriguing addition to the genre is the modernity of Nithyananda's myth-building, the way he continues weaponizing social media to offset his tarnished reputation. That he has been absconding in Ecuador since 2019 and passing it off as a country for "dispossessed Hindus'' Kailasa speaks more about our collective delusion with religion than his own

Process of Brain Washing   of their followers

(Indian Followers-Foreign  Followers) 

The former head of Nithyananda's social media team, Sarah Landry, and another core member, Jordan Loazada, add depth to the documentary as they clearly demarcate when they went from thinking that they had chosen an alternate way of living to realising they had joined a cult.

Sarah, who was a well-recognised devotee of Nithyananda, explains how followers at the ashram did 'mental gymnastics' to actually disbelieve allegations against their guru, despite evidence staring them in the face. in the very beginning sarah also believed that nityananda was a spiritual guru for her so she promote the lectures of nityananda  on youtube channel, but when she get the idea of dark side of nityananda  like after this incident From demanding nude selfies from her for her own 'personal development' to ordering she get thousands of registrations for his programmes, Sarah faced all forms of abuse before extracting herself from the situation. she raised voice against nityananda on twitter  with hashtag#ArrestNithyananda.

Why Do people believe him  even after the C.D. Incident?

People believe in him because when media interviewed him he claims that this video is morphed by some one  he has given witty reply on this incident even his devotee also believe that video is morphed Immediately after the scandal broke out on March 2, Nithyananda had claimed that some of his senior devotees had sent a copy of the video for analysis to London - a step which was never taken. they don't want to know about the reality or dark side of nityananda because of their blind faith.

Can you connect  The Wretched  of The Earth by Fanon with this? Yes, Because as there  is the concept of colonizer and colonization in this series there is also the same concept.

Colonization(Through Torture  and condition of ashram people  As in the wretched of the earth  colonization is there  here in the series also colonization  is observed by the torturing of mind of his  devotees as  he washing the brain by his power of language he  can control the mind of his devotees. His legion of followers includes influential and wealthy people, who are unnamed, and like many Indian spiritual gurus he has his share of foreign devotees. There are accounts from followers-turned- whistleblowers. The most insightful voice here belongs to an anonymous woman whose experience suggests that Nithyananda knew how to target the vulnerable and make people commit to him so much that they'd be ready to sever ties with their families.  This behaviour of nityananda can be observed as a process of colonization.

Bourgeoisie: Celebrities  and other upper class people The story became viral among news media in Tamil Nadu Bollywood actors Vivek Oberoi and Juhi Chawla follow him and his teachings. Tamil actress Ranjitha continues to be his disciple. And while his detractors remain flummoxed over Swami Nithyananda’s constantly rising popularity despite controversies, the self-styled godman has a new disciple in another Tamil actress Kausalya        

Kausalya, who played lead roles in famous Kollywood films like Sollamale, Vaanathaippola and Priyamudan, and later turned into a character artist with Vijay’s movies  Thirumalai and Santhosh Subramaniam, recently joined the spiritual leader’s ashram as a disciple.here it can be observed that there were also some celebrities who were the followers of  nityananda

Colonization: Blind  Faith of people                   this colonization can be observed in series when the incident of CD is happened. When that incident was there no one believed that Swami Nityananda  was freud even if the truth was there. The devotees claim that the video is morphed. It can be said that the nityananda controls the mind of their devotees as well as their behaviour.  how he can manipulate their devotees by the power of language as well as his shrewdness and witty reply.

Is the Decolonization of this possible?                                                       According to my view there is no decolonization of it.  if the devotee doesn't want to face the reality of nityananda because the follower of nityananda has been totally brainwashed by him.

Is there any role of the English Language in this? 

Yes, by the knowledge of English language they can easily impressed youngster, big star, foreigners they can easily brainwashed them know them properly like fight with colonizers first we have the knowledge of their language one example in our contemporary time Jaggi Vasudev one of the guru Or baba give their all speech in English and most of youngsters are follow him.

One Act Play

Vinod bhai Amlani Natyamanch

The major themes of all the drama performances contained a common theme- 21st-century view towards age-old concepts, feminism, Woman's Safety Almost all performances were from a modern perspective and some of the plays were based on current themes while other plays followed the script of great dramatists or short story writers.

                         Firstly, discussing about One Act Play (एकांकी), I would like to describe the themes of two plays here in detail-

1)Ashifa ek paheli sanjay srivastav writen their concept was very unique told about feminism and shurpankha and her point of view and draupadi and her feminism nice performance and very good acting vivah ek balatkar and acid attack on girls most important thing Rape but tragedy flash back with Ashifa one girl child who was victim this is about tragedy in our nowadays india we grow up but still even small girl child are not safe in our nation we speak Bharatmata but in Bharat women's are only toys for male dominated society. This play is all about social awareness. 

2) Adhuru Chitra

According to Aristotle, Plot, and action plays a vital role in tragedy performed on stage. His views can be applied to this tragedy. According to Aristotle, a tragic hero should be a person of great reputation or prosperity, he should be above common level. The tragic hero of the play is Kumar, he is a man of high rank. He becomes king of the Karangath empire. As proposed by Aristotle,  the tragic character should be lifelike and true to type. The character of Vikram kumar is a very lifelike character. The story must be one. There shouldn't be a double plot but in this play, it follows the unity of time and action. 

This is story about Royal Family love story and 

Panna is mistress of king and king give his all empire to his nephew  vikram kumar prince good painter  heroin Panna her background was different she found in prostitute house by king  and one day both are boating Panna and Vikram  found them with ear other and prince make her painting but it was half without any discussion king thinking like they have affair with each other shivratri celebration king making domestic violence against Panna died after death she give latter to kumar he was read letter mad after this Tragedy. The play starts with the madness of prince flashback with kumar. 

3) Hu Pasalo Chu

play is modern tragic comedy 

Indu kuva written Hu pasalo chu

One Act Play

A kind of love story one simple man and princess light humor tragedy also on that he was simple human for love he became changed himself as a God at the End he realized human is better than God. 

Classic Tragedy with Gujarati Drama and traditional representation

4)Aai khani chopat 

Start with man(meraman) who died and one woman (Jaan Bai) sitting near him people challenge protagonist for revenge to his brother murdered and his was continiously play chopat her father tell her to merry is brother in law (manhur) she recall her memories with his husband beautiful scene they create too woman one after merry waiting for husband and before his dead waiting his husband she was talking with her self by too character she marry with her brother in law (Diyar vatu) but after merriage she getting news that his husband mudrered by his brother so she give poison milk to his brother in law he died.
