In fact it was in Glastonbury when I stood beneath the arches of the Magdalena Chapel that I had my first real doubts about Sant Mat. Standing there looking up at those arches towering above I felt connected to something sublime, not eastern, not guru, but Christlike. I came alive like never befor. That was my first shift away from the east of course I got seduced again in Birmingham when I had Satsang with Maharagi. I had to force myself to make the journey to Iona but I had committed to the quest and had to follow through. Thank goodness I did but it has been a constant struggle. Yes I believe He did walk those shores and I pray....

Concentrate your mind as taught in initiation.And do the actual meditation.Once you have experienced the first stage,secon and gone beyond mind and maya intellectual gymnastics, and ACTUALLY GONE all the way to sach khand ,then you are in a position to comment about God In Human Form.Because YOU ARE Radha Soami.<br />
Lord of the soul.Until then one is just full of conceptual b/s building castles in the sand.It only takes less than half a second to reach Sach Khand..says Charan Singh.So whats keeping all of us? Great master has incarnated back into this world, as he said he would , along with other saints, this is the the way of all sons and daughters of sat purush Go to www.rssb.org or info@scienceofthesoul.org and see the RSSB growing and growing, "we are all prophets" Baba Ji New Zealand (July 2012)<br />
America .UK,South Africa,is the home of sant mat in the west..look at Great masters prediction about the Americans, how they are ready for this teachings, something to celebrate eh brothers and sisters, the naam we have taken can never die, we just keep on coming back and back until we GO INSIDE.prepare thy way to the REAL HOME, our last breath etc..death is very painful apparently if we havent prepared ourselves....No matter the master inside is ALL forgiveness, NOW is the time to leave this material world and go inside to the church of the churchless.</p>Gaz commented on 'Charan Singh was a loyal guru'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451c0aa69e2017d40f377cf970c2013-02-11T12:07:28Z2013-02-11T19:06:40ZGazHey Mike That's just what a Surat Shabad Guru said: http://www.godsdirectcontact.org.tw/eng/news/166/ms1.htm Check it out<p>Hey Mike</p>

I have been initiated by at least 7 Radhasoami Gurus. </p>
<p>There are over 30 places in the brain<br />
that we use when thinking and experiencing.<br />
Yet we feel as if we experience at one spot<br />
all the time. We mistake this spot for<br />
the self because it appears stable.</p>
<p>You are not one, but many.</p>
<p>The subconscious mind projects dreams<br />
in sleep. The astral is nothing more than<br />
lucid dreaming, which does not come from<br />
the same spot in the brain we normally<br />
dream from.</p>
<p>So, if you subconsciously think of Sat lok<br />
as light greater then one million suns with<br />
the bagpipe sound, you can actually go<br />
right there, without the intermediaries.</p>
<p>There is no progression unless you believe<br />
there is. You experience what your preconcieved notion is.</p>
<p>You create your own heaven or hell.</p>The9thGate commented on 'Charan Singh was a loyal guru'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451c0aa69e2017d40f00a05970c2013-02-10T23:13:09Z2013-02-11T19:06:40ZThe9thGateMike Williams.

Firstly...the Ninth Gate is one of my favourite films and the orchestral score by Wojiech Kilar is just sublime what to speak of the performances of Frank Langella and Johnny Depp. Moreover...the underlying theme of a man that needs to satisfy his curiosity to know esoteric truth; the allure of power to experience the Alpha and Omega first hand. Forgive my ramblings....<br />
Also; Forgive my ignorance but are you suggesting that we "create" our own Sach Khand which is relative to our innermost desires as opposed to something that is constant for each practitioner of yoga?<br />
Have you ever dabbled in Surat Shabd Yoga? My experience has been fruitless and I left RSSB many moons ago and yet there is still this compulsion to go within or seek something "otherworldly". What have been your motives for wanting to experience spirituality and when did you become a seeker of truth?</p>nietzsche commented on 'Charan Singh was a loyal guru'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451c0aa69e2017d40ecb938970c2013-02-10T09:59:53Z2013-02-10T18:38:52ZnietzscheJust think of it.

Also often they get away with a lot of power, sex and money and social status in the end. They even are allowed to strip others form their ego's. What kind of people might fill this role?</p>
<p>Also there is a lot of misconception about sociopaths. Most often they are not violent or criminal. They are just different in the brains perfectly suited to be a Godman without guilt or shame.</p>
<p>Its funny to realize that what we see as the most conscious being might not have a conscience at all :)</p>
<p>I liked rule number two from 'how to spot a sociopath':<br />
#2) Follow your inner truth, not some external guru. Any guru who demands your obedience is a false prophet. A real teacher is one who empowers you and sets you free to explore your life experience with complete freedom tempered by a code of morals and personal responsibility.</p>

If he was like Charan he would have been glad to explain about the millions and the disappearance of some hospital. He would have been glad to clarify but his reaction is to warn people for the internet as if he is under a mean kind of attack. <br />
I do feel for him because in his mind he does what seems right in a very rigorous way but he lacks a lot of compassion and in the end he takes care of the monney and his cars.<br />
But charming he is too.</p>nietzsche commented on 'Charan Singh was a loyal guru'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451c0aa69e2017c36b0eaa9970b2013-02-08T11:48:55Z2013-02-08T18:30:10Znietzschehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqSZhwu1Rwo http://www.naturalnews.com/036112_sociopaths_cults_influence.html<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqSZhwu1Rwo" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqSZhwu1Rwo</a></p>

<p>Do you want to go to Ananmi Lok<br />

<p>You may find it funny, but in the original<br />

"You are all a bunch of drunks on wine."</p>
<p>"When you sober up you will realize."</p>
<p>Also, in the original gospels one of the<br />
12 disciples says to Jesus,"women are wicked<br />
and lecherous, can heaven ever be for them? "</p>

men so they may be fit."</p>Mike Williams commented on 'Charan Singh was a loyal guru'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451c0aa69e2017c369cb10f970b2013-02-05T18:08:35Z2013-02-05T18:08:38ZMike WilliamsHi 9th Gate, (cont. from above 2 posts) You are NOT THAT.

<p>You are NOT THAT. There is a seperation.</p>
<p>It seems we are woven in the fabric of the<br />

<p>The within is very much different from<br />
what Gurus tell you. The within has no<br />
morals and no ethics.</p>
<p>It is a fantastic world of debauchery.<br />
Super sexual, with all ones fantasies of wine and women, beyond comprehension.<br />
The Babylon empire.</p>
<p>The mind can project the most spectacular<br />
lifestyle on the inner planes, or the holiest rhelms.</p>
<p>One can live and play there in outrageous<br />
delusion.</p>
<p>So, the Gurus tell you to remember Sach<br />
Kand. Indeed, you will experience Sach Kand<br />
according to your preconceived images, even<br />
if it is only a sphere of light and sound.</p>
<p>You make sach kand according to your preconceived notions and experience it.</p>
<p>Or, you can find yourself at the Kronic Bar<br />
surrounded by voluptuous women.</p>
<p>You can stare at the sky in broad daylight<br />
and see the stars.</p>
<p>But, but sach kand and the Kronic Bar<br />
are the same.</p>
<p>There is an X Factor.</p>
<p>Something Else, no one expects. Far<br />
from the phantasies of the inner panorama<br />
of of phantasmagoria.</p>
<p>Not light and sound.</p>
<p>But, direct contact, here and now, at<br />
this very moment, without prequalification.</p>

<p>Sorry I missed your post and just saw it.</p>
<p>There are many types of Satan worshippers.<br />
Satan was called Set in ancient egypt.<br />
The Freemasons worship Set in the advanced <br />
degrees.</p>
<p>In higher initiations they actually imbibe<br />
the Satanic power. Both president Bush's have<br />
received this power via their group at college.</p>
<p>I have spent quite some time in the study of<br />
Masons because they control the world central<br />
banks. Many many presidents were Freemason<br />
and many important founding fathers such as Franklin<br />
and Washington. The kings of England are long standing<br />
Freemasons, as are the Rothschilds.<br />
Masons are deists.</p>
<p>They believe God created the universe, but does not<br />
interfere in its actions. Our acts alone determine our <br />
afterlife.</p>
<p>Their religion is ancient Egyptian and that's why<br />
they wear a Muslim cap with half moon because they<br />
are somehow connected remotely.</p>
<p>Masons control the courts and cannot convict another<br />
Mason. They control basically the entire world along<br />
with the Vatican.</p>
<p>Luciferian means basically these people believe they<br />
have the hidden God within them and are God sort of speak.<br />
That's why Radhasoamis are Luciferian, not to mention<br />
they practice kundalini surat shaba yoga.</p>
<p>Regarding the Bible, Judas also wrote a gospel and they<br />
have 85% recorded and carbon dated. Mary Magdelena was either<br />
Jesus mistress, or his wife. The gospels confirm she<br />
ws Jesus closest companion.</p>
<p>Mary died in France and it is unknown if she had Jesus child.<br />
A large church holds her grave tomb.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSe5PTPl0nQ" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSe5PTPl0nQ</a></p>
<p>It is possible Jesus went to India, as Thomas opened his church<br />
there as Jesus desciple. This is confirmed.</p>
<p>But, there is indeed some very good evidence Jesus went to England<br />
with his uncle, whom was a tin trader. The religion of the ancient <br />
Druids and Christianity are very close.</p>
<p>Mary Magdelena and Peter and Thomas and Judas all had their<br />
gospels deleted around 400 AD by the male dominated church.<br />

<p>For 4 decades now I have investigated the occult. </p>
<p>Hundreds of groups and Gurus. Everything from pranahuti,<br />
to shakti pat to Santeria. I have studied the advance<br />
of the secret occult societies through ancient history <br />
to modern times.</p>
<p>THE BIG PROBLEM</p>
<p>First hand experience of any kind, to at least indicate<br />
to the seeker some type of inner worlds exist, or at least<br />
inner dimensions of the mind.</p>
<p>The seeker wants something ..... anything. But, the vast<br />
majority of people never never experience anything,<br />
even after decades of effort.</p>
<p>Even if you take courses on astral travel they teach you<br />
on how to go inside they will not work.</p>
<p>Modern day gurus are a joke and cannot help you.</p>
<p>Even if you use every technique printed on how to<br />
astral project, it will not help you.</p>
<p>So, I have been looking for a technique that will work<br />
for everyone. That does not use yoga, gurus, or kundalini.</p>
<p>That produces results right off the bat.</p>
<p>And, I have found it. The results are spectacular<br />
and you can start progressing from day one.</p>
<p>And, now the question is, do I want to release this ?</p>
<p>Of course I would give the technique for free. Why ?</p>
<p>So that masters and gurus would never be necessary<br />
and all religious beliefs dispelled.</p>
<p>I will be 61 years old soon. So, my intentions are, I will<br />
write my first book. This will still be several years away<br />
and I will inform my wife, should I die unexpectedly,<br />
she is to take my work to a publisher.</p>
<p>I expect this book to be a book very few people will<br />
read at first. But, over the generations it will<br />
pick up steam.</p>
<p>I want to test this method and give exact details of<br />
both the process and what one will see inside. This will<br />
take me years, even though I could give the process to<br />
enter inside immediately.</p>
<p>The key is, it must work for everyone. And, I must check to<br />
see if it is not dangerous before release to the public.</p>
<p>It involves no yoga and no exercises and no beliefs.</p>
<p>It takes 5 minutes. I can't give this to the public now,<br />
because some guru would undoubtedly get it and immediately start<br />
teaching it.</p>
<p>It has to come out complete and total.</p>nietzsche commented on 'Charan Singh was a loyal guru'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451c0aa69e2017c3691579b970b2013-02-04T09:03:29Z2013-02-04T17:32:31Znietzsche@Mike Thanks for the BBC documentary about the history of Christianity!

Thanks for the BBC documentary about the history of Christianity! Nice because wiki is very clear that most of the gospel where probable written at least at 100 ac and not by the disciple themselves.</p>
<p>But if you take the interpretation by one of the writers that didn't make it to the bible he said there where two Gods. The old Jewish God and the new God Jezus. Now if you contradict Satan to the old God than you might wonder if there are no resemblances between Jezus and Satan? I mean both didn't like the rules that made everyone guilty and that made the church hang everyone.</p>
<p>Recently I met some followers of Satan in the music metal scene and they didn't hurt a fly and where nice people to talk to. They just did what they wanted to do and in fact they where more compassionate than the righteous vampier suckers that called themselves followers of the law and in fact sucked on the energy of the wrongdoers.</p>
<p>I think this guy Satan or Kal is blamed to much these days ;) </p>

<p>Coin of the Cista Mystica, winged snakes coming out of a basket. 50 B.C. Sometimes called the Cadeuceus now used by physicians.</p>
<p>The most common symbol on ancient coins from 500 B.C. We know it as kundalini.</p>
<p> Cistae mysticae were used in the initiation ceremony of the cult of Dionysus,<br />
and many many others.</p>

<p>Alexander then turned his troops and went to India at the Beas River.</p>
<p> He was Greek and left Greek Ptolemy<br />
in charge of Egypt. Cleopatra was the last of his lineage and she was 100% Greek.<br />
But, the trade routes were there many<br />
hundreds of years before Alexander went to India.</p>

Only 4 were chosen to be used in the official bible of Christians.</p>
<p>The gospel of Peter was even hidden.<br />
These books are being unearthed and reveal<br />
much unknown facts about Jesus.</p>
<p>One gospel has Jesus kissing Mary Magdelena<br />
and others say she was his closest confidant<br />
and actual person left to guide others, not<br />
Peter. She actually wrote a gospel herself.</p>
<p>But, 400 years later, the male dominated church decided to leave her gospel out<br />
of the bible, including Peter's.(The first Pope?)</p>
<p>Other gospels say Jesus suffered no<br />
pain on the cross.</p>

But when they told him one day that Santa was not real he tried to hang on to the believe for a little while and it was difficult for him to let go of this idea. It was very interesting that his little mind had no difficulty with all the unexplainable things around Santa and dismissed all the easy explanations at first. <br />
Sometimes I think we should have let him believe in Santa and invent some special story that only in his case he was able to see the truth that Santa was real while all the other children where not initiated by Santa and therefore they could not see like him. :)<br />
Or we should have taken some old wisdom about a current and a smell that only he was connected to by Santa himself and every time he would close his eyes and open his nose that he would smell the current and would travel to Santa land with the smell.</p>
<p>Another story. A friend of mine had to lead a group of young people but they where with two and that was to little to lead the group of children. Also they did not want to take the blame for all the shit that would happen. So he seriously invented a third person that could not be present but that made a plan for the weekend that they would have to follow. It was an ingenious plan and the children sometimes blamed the maker for all the trouble that they had to go through. My friend only smiled and said we have to follow this plan because that third person is very wise and knows exactly what is right.<br />
They had no trouble handling the group and could function as the guardians while the mastermind took all the blame. Works very well with older people too. In the end this third person really existed just like Santa Claus.</p>
<p>I think it is partly because people treated us like garbage that we started to forget what we are. <br />

<p>A few more thoughts. When we see a beautiful being it may well be that they are a beautiful being, but it is also a reflection of our own being. In fact, I think, it is our own being. What we see is ourSelves or, our Self. Don't you think?</p>
<p>I saw Charan quite a number of times in person, shook his hand and interviewed with him privately. He had a pleasant, calm bearing about him. Also, he was always very clean with fresh clothes and lots of bright whites with the punjabis, turban and all. This, combined with his demeanor and our belief in who we thought he was, certainly could raise him in our eyes to lofty heights. Perhaps beyond what was really there. </p>nietzsche commented on 'Charan Singh was a loyal guru'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451c0aa69e2017c3687ce5a970b2013-02-03T00:16:50Z2013-02-03T04:28:08ZnietzscheStill this Charan is a beautifull being as a person judging from his picture...<p>Still this Charan is a beautifull being as a person judging from his picture...</p>nietzsche commented on 'Charan Singh was a loyal guru'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451c0aa69e2017d40b66178970c2013-02-03T00:10:22Z2013-02-03T04:28:08ZnietzscheSlowly very slowly I might grow up :) nothing more, nothing less.

<p>The fear of eternal non-existence after death is a legitimate fear, imo, to the average mind. Every aspect of life is uncertain and tenuous. At any moment we may die, get a terminal disease, become crippled or have the above happen to those we love or care about.</p>
<p>So, don't you think it is understandable, even if it is not very logical, that people would seek to grasp Santa Claus, religion, a master, saviour, a faith or guru in the face of this uncertainty..especially when many others tell them their chosen belief is true or they have grown up in a culture or family with traditional beliefs handed down and presented as Truth for generations?</p>
<p>It takes a certain kind of surrender and courage to calmly face death, or any kind of calamity that could occur at any moment without the belief in and support of God, Jesus, Allah or the master. It takes courage and surrender to set your boat adrift without oars or a rudder. </p>
<p>Right now an artery in your brain (or mine) may be about to burst causing permanent paraysis, blindness and the rest of our life spent in the dark supported by a respirator while unable to move, hear or speak (I certainly do not wish this to happen to you nor do I think it is likely).</p>
<p>And then, when death finally comes, you slip into eternal non-existence which WILL happen to you, me and to everyone we love which we WILL witness if we live long enough.</p>
<p>Are you OK with all that? Are you ready?</p>
<p>I'm not sure I am.</p>
<p>This is why people are drawn to faith. They need the assurance that it's going to be OK, that there is a guiding hand in all this and a purpose. But there may not be.</p>
<p>The need for God, for faith, for a master, for heaven and an afterlife is the curse of the self-reflective mind and linear dualistic thought.</p>
<p>"I" am now but one day "I" won't be.</p>
<p>It is difficult to "grow up".</p>
<p>It might be helpful to find out who and where this "I" is. Is it real? What remains if it is seen to be imaginary like Santa Claus? </p>

<p>I have plenty of time to meditate and also surf the net. I read this blog because I want to understand why others have turned against RS. Everyone questions, that’s what the mind does. 40+ years imo is no big deal. It takes many lifetimes to progress on the inner path. (Okay, I know people here don’t believe in many lifetimes.) </p>
<p>I have an accurate understanding of the role of the Master. Why should I explain to a mere curiosity seeker? If you are interested do your own investigation. </p>
<p>Brian,</p>
<p>Yes, thank you for those quotes. I was being specific about the words “God in human form”. I don’t remember reading those exact words in the RS literature. Perhaps they are there. I have not heard any satsangis using those words and I have only heard them repeatedly on this website. </p>
<p>--- “So anyone who says that the "God in human form" doctrine isn't a central part of Sant Mat/RSSB teachings doesn't understand those teachings.”</p>
<p>I don’t understand this fixation about GIHF. My understanding of Sant Mat is that we are all Shabd, that is our essence and we are all that. If people put a teacher on a pedestal that’s their problem. I always saw the Master as a spiritual guide and I’m happy to have learned from him. </p>
<p>tucson, </p>
<p>--- “In the books devotees are exhorted to revere the master as god.”</p>
<p>I don’t agree. “Exhorted to revere”!</p>
<p>I did not have this experience. If this was your experience, it’s your own perception and I totally did not get this from the books. We understand the teachings according to our own particular mindset.<br />

<p>You inquired: "In the Sant Mat books, does the Master repeatly tell the devotees to stop the GIHF reference"</p>
<p>--In the books devotees are exhorted to revere the master as god. This is at the core of the teachings and is fundamental to them. No perfect (GIHF) master...no path. So, devotees are encouraged to think of the master as GIHF but this terminology, in my experience, is not commonly used amongst devotees when speaking of the master. It goes without saying. The master is usually referred to as "master","maharaji", "huzur", "babaji", etc. So, there is no need for the master to discourage the GIHF apellation.</p>
<p>Roger, you seem to continue to have some curiosity about Radha Soami teachings. I know you are not interested in becoming one of the sheep and would prefer to live your life as a strategically placed beer can, but you may find it of interest to read one of the RSSB books as others have also suggested<br />

I've given away almost all of my books, but kept the abridged version of Philosophy of the Masters by Sawan Singh, also known as the Great Master. </p>
<p>Here's some quotes from "The Necessity For a Living Master," showing that the gurus themselves consider themselves to be God in human form. (Sawan Singh was the guru of Charan Singh, of course.)<br />
------------------------<br />
"The perfect Master is the Lord in human flesh."</p>
<p>"A Master has assumed the form of a man, but he is not an ordinary man. Internally He is always in conscious contact with God. To our limited understanding, the Master may appear to be finite. Actually, he is Infinite. He is the medium for attaining God-realization."</p>
<p>"A Master has two forms. Externally he is a human being; but internally he is, in fact, God.</p>
<p>"Devotion to the Master is, in fact, true devotion to the Lord."<br />
------------------</p>
<p>So anyone who says that the "God in human form" doctrine isn't a central part of Sant Mat/RSSB teachings doesn't understand those teachings. This is a fact, from the Great Master's own words.</p>Roger commented on 'Charan Singh was a loyal guru'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451c0aa69e2017d409199b1970c2013-01-29T18:07:34Z2013-01-30T04:02:42ZRogertucson, This is the issue, "Others say it for him without the guru having to utter a peep." ---In the...<p>tucson,</p>
<p>This is the issue,</p>

<p>---In the Sant Mat books, does the Master repeatly tell the devotees to stop the GIHF reference?</p>
<p>just me,</p>
<p>you stated,</p>
<p>"As a satsangi of 40+ years I have only come across this term being used here on this blog. I personally don't even like the word "God" having never been a religious type. Maybe American satsangis refer to the Master in terms of being GIHF. The Masters never express themselves in this way."</p>
<p>---You opened pandora's box. With your 40+ years of devotion and meditation, why are you surfing the internet and blogging? Not a crime, however, why not spend that time in meditation? With you 40+ years, you should have a keen understanding of the purpose of meditation and the accurate understanding of the role of the master in one's meditation process.

<p>I could be mistaken, but as I recall the terminology "god in human form" is used in some of the RSSB literature. I have no inclination to dig into a few of the books I have saved in the garage under some old car floor mats, but if I were to take a wild stab at it I think Julian Johnson was one who used those words.</p>
<p>Charan, like many who are dishonest about some things, still had many fine qualities and was a gentleman.</p>
<p>I recently saw a program about Jeffrey Dahmer, the serial murderer and cannibal. In interviews he appeared gentle and intelligent, even "normal".</p>
<p>Please do not construe that I am literally equating Charan Singh's actions to those of a serial killer/cannibal.</p>

<p>As a satsangi of 40+ years I have only come across this term being used here on this blog. I personally don't even like the word "God" having never been a religious type. Maybe American satsangis refer to the Master in terms of being GIHF. The Masters never express themselves in this way. </p>
<p>Christians who then become satsangis seem to keep their religious attitude. I don't mix much with satsangis and so avoid all their "guest house gossip" as Charan used to call it. </p>tucson commented on 'Charan Singh was a loyal guru'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451c0aa69e2017ee7fcb30f970d2013-01-28T19:16:47Z2013-01-29T04:44:06ZtucsonCC wrote: "Everything on earth is permeated by earthliness, but I wouldn't call it "God"." --I would.

<p>"Everything on earth is permeated by earthliness, but I wouldn't call it "God"."</p>
<p>--I would. But what the term "God" symbolizes to me may be different than what it symbolizes to you. This "permeation", to me, is not physical and yet it is part and parcel of what is perceived as physical. It is a perception I have which is very real to me, but I acknowledge that it could be delusional.</p>

The best is see for yourself if there is anything to see and even then it may not be the Truth. I think this is partly why Blogger Brian started this blog. Maybe someone would show up with a satisfactory "answer". As a result he is pretty much an atheist with science as the final frontier.

<p>If they're "wiser" than you, why wouldn't they have answers you don't?</p>
<p>How do I know when someone is wiser than I? If someone sees something I missed or mistook for something else, he's wiser. But if he doesn't show me my error, my inattention, naivete, or bias, I feel sufficiently wise until otherwise informed. </p>
<p>Wisdom is the acknowledgment of foolishness, so nobody is wiser than I when I'm onto what a fool I was, and nobody is more foolish than I until then. </p>Juan commented on 'Charan Singh was a loyal guru'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451c0aa69e2017ee7f3ecd8970d2013-01-27T22:35:48Z2013-01-28T02:42:25ZJuanTucson, I think Charan Singh said that he was a Saint and these are his words in his book The...<p></p>

<p>Here in this world we function in duality. I prefer loving kindness and humility but I still get triggered and fall prey to ego and opinions and knowingness, hence my commenting here on this blog.

<p>That which we are within is drawn to that which it resonates with. If it is unknowing and empty it will be attracted to that which is empty and unknowing. If it is loving and kind it will then be at oneness with its true loving and kind essence.<br />

<p>You wrote: "Charan,exemplary role model of humility, surrender and service. Sounds like a Saint to me! Yep, he was a good example of GIHF, whereas we, with our huge egos are miserable examples of gihf."</p>
<p>--Why are qualities such as surrender, service, humility, etc. examples of what gihf would be like? In other words why do we assume God would be humble and self-sacrificing? These are limited human concepts of what God is like and how we are conditioned to think God is like. Maybe God is selfish, greedy and power hungry.</p>
<p>...or maybe none or all of the above?</p>
<p>After all, it seems the Universe is full of relative good/evil, misery/joy, sickness/ health, growth/dissolution in equal measure and God supposedly runs the show.</p>
<p>So, why does an entity as vast as God give a hoot whether I have rennet in my cheese or not, or whether or not I bow towards Mecca? I mean, God has all these lions eating zebras just on our puny planet, and just the visible universe is 26 billion light years across. It could be much larger than that. That's 26,000,000,000 x 5,800,000,000,000 miles containing many billions of galaxies containing many trillions of stars possibly full of beings doing who knows what to each other both "good and bad", "beautiful and ugly".</p>
<p>I certainly have no answers and don't think anyone inluding those much wiser than I, have either.</p>
<p>I relate to the following which to me is about as close an explanation as we are likely to get since, as Blogger Brian pointed out, the cosmos could be beyond human knowing...</p>
<p>There is no greater mystery than this.<br />
That being Reality ourselves,<br />
we seek to gain Reality.</p>
<p>We think there is something binding<br />
our reality and it must be destroyed<br />
before the Reality is gained.</p>
<p>It is ridiculous.</p>
<p>A day will dawn when you laugh at your effort.</p>
<p>That which is on the day of laughter is also now.</p>

<p>In other words, that which was before you were born will be present after you die and is here now as well.<br />

<p>I doubt anybody knows for sure what power Charan had or didn't have. Same goes for the current master, Gurinder. </p>
<p>It is unlikely that anybody understands, in the metaphysical sense, the actual transferring process or even if such a thing exists. David Lane included. </p>
<p>My personal opinion is that Charan did not possess superhuman powers attributed to so-called perfect masters. He was a normal human being who carried out his duties well, even admirably because his leadership role must have been difficult to bear. </p>
<p>I agree with the theme of Blogger Brian's comment that Charan was a loyalist who allowed himself to be presented as GIHF for the sake of the RSSB organization. To my knowledge he never actually proclaimed any exhalted spiritual status for himself. He just went along with others claiming it for him. He was sort of an honest fraud. But fraud is fraud. </p>
