Rudra:

I have worked for their charity , so know lot about what they do and how thy function.




The medical care she offered did not meet standards, even for third world hospice care. And quotes like this, "I think it is very beautiful for the poor to accept their lot, to share it with the passion of Christ. I think the world is being much helped by the suffering of the poor people," and "the most beautiful gift for a person that he can participate in the sufferings of Christ," certainly don't put her in the best light. Her goal was never to treat the poor sick. Her goals were conversion and to help people suffer properly to prepare their souls for the afterlife. Added to this the fact that she went to western hospitals when she herself got sick, makes her look like a hypocrite as well.

Rudra:

uffff oka boku bokadia news item theesukochi mother theresa ni comment chesthunnara..

People commenting her - have you ever read anything about her or followed why she has become a saint..

lauda lo mana party mana kulam thappite migitha antha oka opinion form chesukovali without information and blindly argue .. chusssssssss

I have worked for their charity , so know lot about what they do and how thy function.




Not everyone argues blindly. there have been many people who have questioned her operations and they are all well documented. I am not sure who have read those side of arguments as well.

Regarding, working in a charity and knowing alot about them. I would not bet on myself knowing about people I am working with. Its like saying, People who have worked for Satyam or say Enron or people who go to catholic church would have known all the crimes that were committed by them.

Again, you are equating commenting on Mother Theresa to the charity carried on her name, and the people who do selfless work on her name. they are two different things.

i feel the definitions have long been twisted to suit their agendas.

liberalism is an attitude with the idea that the universe is pluralistic.

Most folks who think they are liberal, do not fall under this category. they are aligned "liberal philosophy", but their attitude towards is anything but.

i have said it in DB many times... if Osama was a liberal(politically) he would still be the same violent, achieve by any means crook.

anyway - gotta go... took a short break.

Mother Theresa is a "real" conservative.




same way like "liberals".....I don't know whether ppl with "zeal" should be called "conservative"........motivated by some ideology and imposing it on others by hook or crook, doesn't really sound "conservative" to me.....both these liberals and conservatives sound like commie zealots.....

http://www.opindia.com/2018/07/mother-teresas-missionaries-o f-charity-decades-of-the-baby-bazaar/

There was a fair amount of shock and disbelief in many circles when news, on the 7th of July 2018, broke that a nun at Nirmal Hriday (a hospice established by Mother Teresa) in the town of Ranchi had been arrested and remanded to judicial custody by a court for allegedly selling a baby at the Nirmal Hriday home. According to another story, “Arti Kujar, head of the Jharkhand State Child Protection Society, told Reuters that they suspect the home was charging upwards of $600 for each baby, depending on what the prospective parents could afford to pay.”

Soon enough came the suitably shocked protestations from the Mother Teresa founded Missionaries of Charity, along with the expected disclaimer – “We are shocked to know what has happened in our home… it is completely against our moral conviction,” Sunita Kumar, spokesperson for the Missionaries of Charity, stated. “We are carefully looking into this matter. We will take all necessary precautions that it never happens again if it has happened.”

Shortly thereafter came political cover to the aid of the Missionaries of Charity, when Bengal chief minister, Mamata Banerjee, on the 12th of July, tweeted her full support to the organization:

A few news outlets, including Republic, however, continued to dig into the scandal, continually updating their site as more news trickled out, including confessional statements from the arrested nun.

What caught my attention was was the statement by the Missionaries of Charity spokesperson, expressing shock at the trafficking of children that such a line of business would be “against” their “moral conviction”.

This article, however, is not about this particular episode of child trafficking, alleged or otherwise, by the Mother Teresa founded charity.

Sonaton Dhar

Let us take a journey decades old. To do that, let us take the assistance of Aroup Chatterjee‘s meticulously researched book, “Mother Teresa: The Untold Story (which the Irish Independent, Dublin, called ‘Painstakingly recorded, (exposes) the other side of Teresa’), and go back in time to 1980, when a seven-year-old Sonaton Dhar was sold to a Belgian Catholic couple for the princely sum of ₹Rs 125,000 (more then two-million rupees – twenty lakh – today after adjusting for inflation).

How? Missionaries of Charity falsified records to enable the sale.

What exactly were these falsifications? Missionaries of Charity showed Sonaton as an orphan. No, let’s correct that – Missionaries of Charity showed all three siblings as orphans. You see, Sonaton Dhar, his two sisters, and mother had been given shelter at Prem Daan – another of Mother Teresa’s hospices. Soon enough, the mother died, and all three children were promptly sold off to Belgian Catholics by the nuns at the hospice.

This was a crime as per Indian law since Sonaton’s father and grandfather were still alive at the time, and neither had given their permission to the Mother Teresa charity to give away their children for adoption.

From 1993 onwards, Sonaton Pauwels (as he was now named) made frequent trips to India to locate his sister. Sonaton visited Prem Daan “many times but was told by nuns to forget his past and move on.” Sonaton, with the assistance of some journalists, managed to view his papers at the MC orphanage in 2002, where he found data had been falsified by the missionary outfit – that he was an orphan and that his grandmother had given him up for adoption. Both statements were false.

Sonaton continued to investigate similar cases of child trafficking and found 74 such “orphans” only in Belgium.

In 2002, Dr Kunal De, a member of West Bengal’s Juvenile Justice Board, gave an interview for a documentary made by Anilabha Chattopadhyaya. In the interview, he implied that as this was Mother Teresa’s order, no charge or action would be forthcoming. The documentary can be viewed on YouTube – The Truth about Mother Teresa- Sanatan Powell’s Narrative

True enough, nothing came from either Sonaton’s investigations or from the documentary. No investigation was ordered, no arrests were made, and no charges were ever filed. It was as if Mother Teresa and her outfit could never be accused of child trafficking, evidence be damned.

It is not as if Mother Teresa was ever circumspect or apologetic about her priority – proselyting and religious activities came first. The hospices and shelters for the dying were at best a facade, a facilitator, for her main business – religious conversions. To take just one example, in “1974, the Missionaries of Charity (UK) received £117,394 in donations. Of that amount, £80,000 (68 per cent) they sent to ‘H.Q. Rome’; another £650 was sent to ‘Beda College (Religious Training) Rome’. Child welfare in India got £334 and Home for the Dying in Calcutta £45.” That is, a total of less than one-third of one per cent of the funds received actually went to help the needy and dying.

Indeed, in a private talk to some Americans, Mother Teresa gleefully boasted – “Not one has died without receiving a special ticket to St. Peter… Twenty-nine thousand have died in that one house… but it’s so beautiful to see those people dying…”. More sordid details about the squalid conditions at Mother Teresa’s homes have been documented in Aroup’s book.

What happened if someone did try to investigate or dig deeper into the accounts of Mother Teresa’s businesses? When Aroup, in 2001, met Atanu Mukherjee, Registrar of Trusts, Societies, and Non-trading Corporation in Calcutta, he filled an application to view Missionaries of Charity’s files of accounts, which were public, and, in theory, open to any member of the public to view. Chatterjee told Aroup of an incident in the 1990s when a journalist had obtained the accounts of MC and published them. An octogenarian Mother Teresa had marched up to the Registrar’s office and given him “hell.” “The following day, the Registrar got a phone call from some unnamed bigwigs asking him in effect to make the files unavailable to the public.”

Aroup persisted in trying to obtain access to the public accounts of Missionaries of Charity. In reply to his letter in 2002, the Registrar sent a reply that contained Sister Nirmala’s, then head of MC, response, in effect directing the Registrar to deny Aroup any access to the account of MC – “that Chatterjee who has caused us a lot of trouble.”

One would suppose that a putatively charitable organization would want the whole wide world to know more about their work and how frugally they spent their money and how every rupee, dollar, and pound was spent in the welfare of the dying and the destitute. Obviously, Missionaries of Charity thought differently.

As Aroup caustically diagnosed the Indian malaise – “Pusillanimity before the white man is the norm. … Western vulgarities, such as MTV, have reached remote villages but Western standards of transparency have not touched the biggest institutions.”

Perhaps the most poignant and pointed illustration of India’s continued mental colonization and ‘pusillanimity’ was on parade for the entire world in 2016, when the government of India sent an official, 12-member delegation, to represent a billion Indians at Mother Teresa’s canonization at the Vatican – to honour a person whose mission in life had been to proselyte, convert through deceit tens of thousands of dying, allegedly sell hundreds of babies, deposit hundreds of millions of dollars received in donations in offshore bank accounts, write letters in support of the corrupt, invest not a single rupee in healthcare from those donations for the sick and dying.

It has been more than a hundred years since Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore expressed a hope, a desire, a prayer to see his country awaken in a heaven “where the mind is without fear and the head is held high“. India has not begun to take even small, tentative steps towards true freedom.
