message: There are a couple of images that I would like to see replaced. One is regarding the Lalita Marmika Dance and the second is regarding the Tandava dance. The reason for replacing them is as follows:
Lalita Marmika: the picture is presenting lines of black icons from which it is rather impossible to extract the actual dance movement that has characteristics of graciousness and sweetness. Possible replacement is below:
Tandava: the picture is a statue with a kind of weird anatomic position which does not convey the idea of the balanced and energetic movement proper of the dance. Better image is below:
The images suggested come from internal websites of Ananda Marga where no copyright is shown. They were taken for the purpose of demonstration and Ananda Marga uses them without restrictions. In case of further reserve I will be able to replace the images with a selection taken by myself during an Ananda Marga retreat which I will be participating shortly.

replies: text: All of those links show show a "not found" message when I follow them. But more importantly, we can't use copyrighted images from other websites when free alternatives are available (see WP:NFCCP). Before you suggest any replacement, please make sure the images that you intend to add have licenses consistent with our Image use policy. Regards. Amitrochates (talk) 16:59, 21 March 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Images in the article 

message: I think it's fair to say this article is not as impartial as it could be.  Sardaka (talk)
:Thank you Sardaka. When talking about a socio-spiritual movement or organisation, the due weight of a neutral article should be about the organisation itself. However, controversies or allegations about it, carry more weight in the article. Even disproven allegations from the past such as the Sydney Hilton bombing carry its own subtitle under History, and to any neutral reader just looking at the titles, it looks as if it was a part of Ananda Marga history. It's very misleading and this is definitely not a neutral WP article. --Universal Life (talk) 12:26, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  I've removed some of the worst of the linking of common terms, but the whole text is the group seen from the inside, and the sourcing is basically all primary. The whole text and the citations need to be replaced with reliable 3rd-party sourcing and neutral encyclopedic description. Chiswick Chap (talk) 16:15, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  I am disturbed to see that an editor has seen fit to make a series of large, unexplained reversions, even though the article is under a point-of-view tag and there is a live discussion thread right here on the talk page. Let's talk, please, the article certainly needs improvement, preferably by citing reliable independent sources. Chiswick Chap (talk) 15:29, 22 September 2021 (UTC)

thread_title: Point of view

message: At the time of writing, this article has been completely scrubbed of any reference to the Sydney Hilton Hotel Bombing, an event which has been proved to be linked to Ananda Marga members. It is clearly an event that is relevant to the history of this group. The Controversies sections seems to have been redacted/ vandalised in an edit [ 09:47, 22 April 2022‎ 87.196.80.214, −4,618 bytes ]. 
I suggest that these sections be restored. The redaction of reference to the Sydney bombing on the grounds of 'conspiracy' is unjustified. The convicted perpetrator of the bombing was a member of Ananda Marga. 150.203.68.43 (talk) 00:35, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
