Sri Sri Thakur Anukul Chandra's Concept
Sri Sri Thakur Anukulchandra was born on 14th September 1888 at the village Himaitpur, district Pabna of Bangladesh in a Brahmin family. He was the founder of ‘Satsang’. Shiva Chandra Chakravorty was his father and Monomahini Devi was his mother. He was an avatar, a pure souled man.
Sri Sri Thakur established the Sat sang Ashram at Deoghar, in the district of Jharkhand, India. It is the man making Institution. He defined the word 'Sat' as 'Existence' and 'Satsang' brings together the devotee to existence. The Ideology of Sri Sri Thakur learns us the way of making coordination between individuals or oneself, the living Ideal and the existing environment around us.
He believed that one Ideal or Guru is required in one's life. It is our duty to attach ourselves to the living ideal and expose all our wishes, activities centering Him. We are just like bulbs. As the bulbs don't enlighten without the supply of electricity or source of energy, similarly we don't be able to enlighten us without the attachment of the Living Ideal. Sri Sri Thakur says that only the concentric life of the individual to the Ideal can save the world from disintegration.
Sri Sri Thakur gave the meaning of the words inventively, clarifying the root of each word. He distinguished between the words 'poverty' and 'pauperism'. He has not defined 'poverty' comparing to the monetary status. His concept is quite different. He meant the poor are those who have lost ideals, morals, values, etc. in their life. Poverty is the reflection of their lifestyle. He made a link between pauperism and poverty. He said that poverty is a disease and pauperism means to be afflicted with poverty. People may be poor(financially) generation after generation but still not be classed with paupers.

Such type of man’s libido never fulfills others with uphill enthusiasm or never be satisfied actively to be fulfilled upon someone.
