<p>Meister Eckhart<br />
We have the feeling that we are not yet real, that we only have the time between now and death to create, somehow, that reality which right now is painfully absent. Human life, therefore, is from the very first day an instinctive effort to “become,” yet Eckhart urges the necessity to “un-become,” that is, to reverse life’s underlying direction and goal.</p>
<p>He calls for the abandonment of all efforts to incorporate reality, to become, and to “make something” of ourselves and our lives. On the contrary, we are to work diligently to cut away whatever reality and substance it may seem that hard work or chance has created.</p>
<p>This reversal applies, above all, to all forms of inner and spiritual wealth. All attempts to acquire the right religious attitudes, accomplishments, and knowledge are to be abandoned. Turning aside from the goal of making ourselves spiritually, we must jettison whatever spiritual wealth, value, and standing we thought were ours.</p>Dungeness commented on 'RSSB calls 1500-2000 secretaries to Dera.

<p>Indeed, my lies are so extra-ordinary, that they travel forward through time:</p>
<p><a href="https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/radhasoamistudies/conversations/topics/97467" rel="nofollow">https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/radhasoamistudies/conversations/topics/97467</a></p>
<p>In Yoga there is the notion of a phenomena or siddhi called "para-vyak", that of true speech. Few people will understand it.</p>
<p>What I propose is a more understandable concept, one that is more readily understood and experienced by people. We have several masters of it here, on this very forum!:</p>
<p>Vacuous-speech; the power to make furious noise but signify nothing.</p>
<p>I am having so much fun engaging with a troll, far more than I ever thought I would!!! I may just stick around...(only teasing, this blog really is too boring, once you've heard the one-dimensional criticism and nihilistic futility, what more is there to learn) </p>

<p>What babaji said to her in public was not good anyhow.<br />
It was humbling.</p>
<p>So it is alright that people can vent here and in'' radhasoamistudies'' also.<br />
.................<br />
What I felt and I felt lonely in that period in Dera, was, that opposite the Satsanghar were big bank buildings.<br />
Very weird that was to me.</p>
<p>What I heard in the morning satsangs was'' we as satsangis' can go trough the ocean because We have the Master!! but others can't cross the ocean''..We are the fortunate ones"</p>
<p>I was sooo sad and angry about the opposite of Love what I saw and heard in that session.</p>
<p>I think here,in this blog we can discuss not ''fight''.<br />
We can say our truth without putdowns.<br />
Form all sides I mean!!<br />

<p>Dear Sita - I understand there are many who have or at least feel they have benefitted from this forum and the news that is shared here - indeed, it is extremely important (as I have stated countless times).</p>
<p>The problem is, Sita - and I am not concerned if you agree with me or not, to be honest - the sincerity, integrity, compassion etc of the people who are peddling those criticisms (and, really, it IS peddling) should also be looked at.</p>
<p>You may think Jesse "is very much with the subject"; he may well be. But that doesn't stop it being vacuous, without substance, juvenile, easy & cliche criticisms coming from somebody who has admitted, in hiw own words:</p>
<p>a) He is a troll</p>
<p>b) has contempt for anyone who believes in RSSB</p>
<p>c) never had any real devotion to Gurinder or RSSB.</p>
<p>It is clear to me Jesse is merely venting here, and being the troll he admits being.</p>
<p>In regards Brian - yes, we need a shared space for criticising RS - I've been saying that for years. But should we not call out our attention-seeking blog leader for associating Gurinder's behaviour with the abuses of the "me too" movement? That lacks decency on MULTIPLE levels. First, Gurinder's behaviour is almost diametrically opposed to the hidden abuses uncovered by the "me too" movement". Secondly, it diminishes the impact of GENUINE abuses when you use the claim simply to further demonise somebody you are ideologically opposed to.</p>
<p>Finally, I'm surprised at all this defensiveness by not only yourself, but Jesse and Brian.</p>
<p>They can gleefully and excitedly criticise, knowing how hard & traumatic these issues may be for people, but get offended at my pointing out of facts, and questioning their motivations? How utterly trivial and inconsequential the things people get offended by! Such delicate little souls :)</p>
<p>Sure, knock yourselves out, pretend Brian is demonstrating great care and concern for exers, that it isn't motivated by recognition and attention, that Jesse has tremendous insight and experience with RSSB or whatever other self-delusional nonsense you want.</p>
<p>How incredibly fragile the facade though.</p>

<p>I said what I said specifically in regards to the concept of enlightenment as was being discussed, which often is loosely described as a state of hyperawareness, or expanded awareness and a sort of effortlessness in ones actions. This comes up in religious texts often."Do without doing" type of stuff. It's something I've seen people "in the zone" experience personally, but never have I met someone who sits and babbles mantras a lot achieve it temporarily or permanently. They just yammer a lot and behave emotionally as you claim to do. I feel for you and your strong feels though. It must suck.</p>Jesse commented on 'RSSB calls 1500-2000 secretaries to Dera.

<p>1) Jessie: "Ok, Manjit, you're a satsangi. There's no way you could be this defensive and not be. It's literally impossible. "</p>
<p>Me: Well, beyond your vain & delusional imaginings, narrative and projections, let's have a little look at actual real world facts, should we? Please bear in mind, I have been posting online here and RSS forum for almost 2 decades, have communicated with numerous people privately, and actually know a few personally (such as "Osho Robbins").</p>
<p>I have never been initiated. I have not attended a satsang or seen Gurinder in person for 12 odd years. This includes, for example, when he held satsang an hour's drive from my house on a weekend I was free a month or so ago, and which "Osho Robbins", despite also claiming to not be a satsangi, also attended and had a discussion with Gurinder. I simply couldn't be bothered and have no interest in it. During that time, both yourself and Brian, alleged "exers", have been posting daily about Gurinder & RSSB. During that time, I have not thought about him or RS at all.</p>
<p>Now, these are simply facts. Weave and project whatever delusional & self-serving narrative you want around that, but they might be more persuasive if you somewhat retain some connection to actual reality? </p>
<p>In view of the above facts & your demonstrably untrue claim here, may I suggest you haven't got the faintest idea what motivates me or my emotional state of mind, whereas yours and Brian's are obvious and evident?</p>
<p>2) Jesse: "If you want to talk about yoga, let's do that, Manjit. I've done a fair amount of it, read nearly every RSSB book "</p>
<p>Why would I, or anyone else, what to discuss such a complex and nuanced subject as yoga with somebody as obviously ignorant and dishonest as you? Do you remember the last time you thought you could have a substantial discussion with me? Remember, when I provided with plenty of factual substance to your request, and your only reply was "this is a garbage discussion" and other juvenile "butt hurt" comments?</p>
<p>So you've read books, well done! I even know somebody who WROTE RSSB books, yet had less than zero personal, experiential knowledge and insight into the reality RSSB presents! (hint; you are incredibly sycophantic towards this person :). Did either of you realise that the books state concepts and intellect are no substitute for experience?</p>
<p>I think, Jesse, your potential contribution to such subjects can be summarised in a comment you made last time I discussed "mystical experiences" and altered states of consciousness with you; you said "being the "zone" during sport" is "about as close to a mystical experience as is possible", or some other such profoundly mistaken, experientially & intellectually ignorant and arrogant comment.</p>
<p>WOW! Such complete ignorance of the potential of human consciousness and experience!</p>
<p>Why don't you at least get some basic, fundamental, for the masses,pop-conceptual knowledge (experience is harder to get) of that which you speak so arrogantly and dismissively? Try reading this book, for example, which was a top 10 best-seller!:</p>
<p><a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Stealing-Fire-Maverick-Scientists-Revolutionizing/dp/0062429655" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.co.uk/Stealing-Fire-Maverick-Scientists-Revolutionizing/dp/0062429655</a></p>
<p>You are so out of your depth it's incredible, you don't even have a grasp on basic fundamentals & experience!</p>
<p>Being in the "zone", be it during sport, during socialising or during "seduction" is par for the course on any mystical path - in ways you could not even begin to comprehend, my friend.</p>
<p>And that that is merely "beginner's phenomena" is something, evidentially from your own comments, way, way, way beyond your current capacity of understanding and experience. It is your mistakenly placed pride in cynicism & bitterness that blocks you off from ever being able to learn and understand what I am talking about here, as you're appear more interested in the childish and meaningless games of ego that are played here, by those who have nothing else.</p>
<p>You can read the above as however you like. I trust in truth and have no concern for your delusions.</p>Al commented on 'RSSB calls 1500-2000 secretaries to Dera.

<p>Huh? No my somewhat confused & ideologically disposed friend, he was "fired" FROM preaching FOR his guru. Please note I clearly understand what happened - I was the one who predicted he would be "fired" only just prior to him being so. It wasn't because he was "essentially preaching against". That is absolute nonsense and delusion, and clear evidence you have absolutely no grasp on the dynamics of what is going on here, at all. But you keep defending your new guru.</p>
<p>Pay attention - whilst I may realise you have exceptionally little insight into RS, Gurinder, RSSB, Brian, this blog etc, there are others who delusionally imagine you DO have some insight (simply because you're a critic of RSSB.....that's all it takes!! :) - don't let them down with your constantly vacuous and erroneous posts.</p>
<p>Jesse: "You don't know what the word desperation means. And what was the "complete transparency?" What are you even talking about? This is gibberish"</p>
<p>Oh boy. Somebody anonymously claimed that Gurinder was having an inappropriate relationship with "Sheena". He wasn't. He wanted to let all his regional secretaries or whomever to be told of the allegations.</p>
<p>For Brian to somehow, disgustingly & manipulatively, associate this kind of complete "transparency" with the ACTUAL sexual abuses revelaed by the "me too" movement I feel clearly demonstrates the nature of this blog and it's owner, the honesty, sincerity, decency etc.</p>
<p>To each their own sagacity - don't let your cultic affiliations, either pro or anti RS, sway us to obvious and self-evident truths.<br />

<p>I can understand why you or Brian like what Jesse writes, because it accords with your current perspective. That's not complicated.</p>
<p>But what is evident, is, that his comments, imo, contain absolutely no knowledge, information or experience beyond the entirely superficial and shallow. Further, he has already admitted he is a troll (that Brian pretended was his sense of humour, despite it appearing more like bitterness from both), and that he has nothing but contempt for RS believers.</p>
<p>In other words, all we are getting from him is troll like comments which are really nothing but ignorant bitterness and cynicism expressed out loud.</p>
<p>I simply cannot see anything in his comments beyond that arrogance and ignorance of any value & information, and something I couldn't teach a child to emulate perfectly despite having absolutely no knowledge, experience or understanding of the subject themself.

<p>Or cry about the abhorent nature of egotistical attention seekers with not a shred of sincerity, knowledge, experience or integrity taking great delight, glee and pleasure in criticising a guru & faith which provides unmeasurable comfort and security to hundreds of thousands of people, simply because it makes them feel good to get so much attention?<br />

<p>I personally think there will be riots either at the dera or maybe the delhi satsang ghar. We can get a glimpse of the low quality people who are getting defensive because Brian dares to mention the possible corruption in RSSB. Think how bad these guys will freak out if Gurinder goes to jail.</p>
<p> It'll be scary because unlike some deras, RSSB has a very competent logistics team who could very well apply their skills to urban battle.</p>manjit commented on 'RSSB calls 1500-2000 secretaries to Dera.

<p>I think you are a self-admitted and self-evident troll who has no understanding or comprehension of your own emotions & motivations, let alone that of others as you repeatedly claim. I think you have absolutely no understanding on anything other than a most superficial and vacuous level any element of spirituality, mysticism, yoga, RS, Gurinder, science, pyschology etc. I think you are doing nothing but expressing your own empty inner bitterness and imaginging it to be wise & witty, primarily because Brian ensorses that particular delusion because that is how the cult of this blog works, and that you do this for emotional reasons you have absolutely no understanding or grasp of.</p>
<p>I think there is no point discussing RS or Gurinder with you, just as I see no point in discussing quantum entaglement with a child who struggles to count to 20. Deep truths are beyond your capacity, imo. Mindless criticism and bitterness is too facile for me, I'm sure you can manage that self-deception all by yourself - why do you need my help, any child can accomdate your requirements?</p>

<p>So let me help you along with a bit of CotC "history". Here is where Brian got "sacked" (really? Was it a "job"? What was he paid in? Attention?):</p>
<p><a href="http://hinessight.blogs.com/church_of_the_churchless/2005/10/ive_been_fired.html" rel="nofollow">http://hinessight.blogs.com/church_of_the_churchless/2005/10/ive_been_fired.html</a></p>
<p>In that blog, Brian references a post of mine from RSS forum from 10 days earlier where I predicted he would be removed from his position.</p>
<p>It was immediately subsequent to that sense of being "fired" that Brian's cynical, atheistic & mindless criticisms of RSSB & Gurinder started to take place. It is interesting, is it not, that one day you're preaching in promotion of a cult & it's dangerous guru, and the very next day apparently based on something as utterly inconsequential and irrelevant as being removed from a worldly position of recognition, you start criticising that guru and path as false?</p>
<p>Something is indeed "false" about all that.</p>
<p>I let the wiser amongst the readers of this blog decipher just what that "falseness" is....</p>
<p>It is far easier to see through this charade than it is of the ancient practice & experience of shabd yoga....but you wouldn't know that, at all, because all you're seeing through are your concepts of shabd yoga, and you have zero, zilch, nada, NO personal experience of either shabd yoga, guru bhakti, devotion etc</p>manjit commented on 'RSSB calls 1500-2000 secretaries to Dera.

My respects go out to you for being able to change your mind and remain true to your own values!</p>
<p>However, I am a little staggered at the following comment, and feel perhaps a small dose of sanity & honesty is required in the current self-congratulatory & delusionary maelstrom of this blog - Spencer writes: "But there will always be lovers of truth. Brian, Jesse and others among them. "</p>
<p>Huh? :-o Shall we examine this comment? :)</p>
<p>In between Brian's obsession with "visitor counts" to his blog, what unflattering picture a news channel used of him, crying at transparent Freudian praise projected upon him and what type of honorific should be used to appeal to him (oh, in "jest" of course, though never a truer word spoken...) where and when exactly has Brian been a "lover of truth"?</p>
<p>Let's leave Jesse aside for a moment - self-admitted and self-evident trolling in the form of easy, juvenile, vacuous, naive, cynical & profoundly ignorant "arguments" wrapped in a body of arrogance that considers itself "intelligent", despite being the level of argument and knowledge you would expect from a petulant child. You may consider this to be evident of a "lover of truth", I consider this to be evidence of ignorance & cynicism expressing itself.</p>
<p>But Brian? Is this the same Brian who preached and promoted RSSB and Gurinder for years - and ONLY found himself disillusioned - overnight & instantaneously - when he was fired from his official position, hence robbing him of the recognition and attention it is absolutely self-evident to any semi-conscious person is what really motivates him?</p>
<p>Is this the nature of "truth"? Preaching one thing because one is given a position to preach, then immediately preaching the complete opposite overnight because that position is taken away from you? Why does this seem more like the nature of unexamined egotism and pride, the complete anti-thesis of the path he once preached (but clearly never understood beyond the intellectual and conceptual)?</p>
<p>And, really, what is this "truth" he "loves"? By sheer accident of his position (in truth, the real criticism of RSSB here is how and why people with absolutely no experiential understanding or experience on any level whatsoever are allowed to author books and hold satsangs about something that is supposed to be a purely experiential path!) and his deep desire for attention and recognition, people from all over the world send him links and rumours about RSSB - not a single thing he has "reported" on this blog was unknown in the general public before, from Gurinder's wealth, sexualised comments, potential chosen successor etc......NONE of these are Brian's insights or knowledge, they are all incidental news items that have been forwarded to him & which he publishes on his blog without examination because it gets him the attention he very clearly desperately craves and for which Brian subtly takes credit.</p>
<p>The deep disnonesty, lack of integrity, lack of genuine concern and compassion (incidentally, something that Jesse has also openly admitted when he says things like he has nothing for contempt for people who believe in RSSB....he doesn't realise the pyschological projection!), complete lack of concern for "truth" is evidenced, for example, when Brian brings up the "me too" movemement when discussing Sheena's "Memoirs of a Seeker" book, despite there being nothing even remotely similar to the abuses being revealed by the "Me too" movement. To equate Gurinder initally wishing to make transparent and open a false allegation of sexual impropritey (then changing his mind when requested not do so by the woman in question), or making one seemingly "hurtful" comment about her sexual past amongst friends is imo completely disgusting & dishonest. Brian doesn't care about RSSB satsangis or women who are genuinely harrased or abused, and will use anything to highlight his cause, which is to get recognition, attention & visitors to his blog, even if it dimishes the pain and suffering caused by genuine, hidden abuses (again, please note, Gurinder wished to make it known to everyone!). A similar sort of disgusting lack of concern and insight into more serious issues, purely based on the completely unexamined (the psychology behind Brian's entire blog history I find quite obvious myself) desie to criticise Gurinder and RSSB, was evident in Brian's post about Gurinder's non-judgemental comments about abortion a few years ago. </p>
<p>What am I trying to say here, Spence? Please don't mistake Brian (or Jesse's) comments with a love for truth, that would be imo a spectacularly misguided and erroneous perspective. These guys are playing a part in a phenomena they have no understanding or comprehension about, and they are clearly and transparently (and indeed self-admittedly in Jesse's case) not motivated by truth, love, compassion etc. They, in fact, don't even understand the subject they're discussing, but are mrely expressing their own disattisfaction, lack of experience and knowledge etc.</p>
<p>I am astonished you do not recognise this and instead ascribe noble motivations & knowledge that are patently not true?</p>
<p>To all the many thousands of visitors to this blog that Brian keeps reminding us of - please do note that Brian's ultimate realisation is this; Existence is utterly futile, we are mindless meat robots, nihilism is the truest & most wisest realisation possible, there are no such things as mystical experiences....and other assorted delusions born of a mind with little to no direct experience of these subjects. Is it any wonder in such a miserable, sad, ignorant world-view that meaning & value is sought after in the gleeful & joyous descruction of the belief and faith of others, and an ever increasing "visitor count"?</p>
<p>As you know, I have been a critic of Gurinder and RSSB for 2 decades now (and criticised Gurinder's sexualised comments before anyone else ever mentioned it anywhere online, criticised his obsene wealth before the inevitable scandals which are no more concerning than the fact he had that wealth in the first place, which we've all known for years etc etc)......but to somehow imagine those who know & have experienced nothing, seek attention and recognition at all costs and have no concern for integrity, who have NOTHING at all to share but bitterness, cycnicism and nihilism, are more noble, honest etc than the teachings and values RSSB hold? I find that absolutely staggering, especially coming from you! Be careful who you throw your lot in with!</p>
<p>I wish good luck to you and all others who may be struggling emotionally & intellectually with the current state of Radhasoami affairs.</p>

<p>I say - No role. None, whatsoever. And that's because the Sikhs are extremely patriarchal. Women don't get too much internal power to wield until they come of an age where they assume the role of the matriarch, and that's much later in life. Shabnam has gone along with whatever GSD's done. Aditi and her family enjoy excellent repute. Aditi's mother is a very good woman I hear. With the gossip mills working overtime to juice whatever comes their way, I haven't heard a single wrong thing about Aditi and her family. Just posting what I get to know. </p>
<p>Sarah says - If these women are just “homemakers” then WHY do these men list companies in their wives names?? </p>
<p>I say - It is common practice to give the women of a family shareholdings within a family business. It marks a good practice of financial inclusion and can also be an arrangement for tax efficiency. It's acceptable and legal. Several communities in India consider the women of the house as avatars of the Goddess Laxmi who is the goddess of wealth and a symbol of good fortune. I wholly endorse this practice, as this way women aren't as easily disposable should there be a divorce. Womens rights within patriarchal structures are always complicated, but it is always good to see families who give status and equality to their women by giving them internal holdings.</p>287daysleft commented on 'RSSB calls 1500-2000 secretaries to Dera.

Interested Reading all these new Issues , I was attached with RSSB since i was 11Years old boy , but since 1998, a very simple question related to sant mat and Karms was being asked by GSD in chile, which was not being able to answer, and the same queston Purposely I had asked in North Caroline as had to take my Mother who wanted to meet her . Again Inspite of Responce of the simple question MEN got angry at Satsang hall in front of 2000 Disciples. MASTER GETS ANGRY for a simple question related to Karms and Saint Mat . which i had followed almost 36Years. That day onwards for me GSD lost all the respect and was being considered a common Person like everyone in this UNIVERSE , and Infact A CROOKED Person who has been playing with Public Sentiments and Collecting Billions of Dollars on Donation, Men is HUNGRY FOR POWER AND MONEY and obviously not going to Neither resign nor any of the option you mentioned - Specially the last one - NEVER and if he has to, he would give the power of attorney to his Family Members . is a same group of RAM RAHIM who is in Prison for 20Years - in 1960,s RSSB group was being divided for the Post of who would be next Guru. </p>Shruti commented on 'RSSB calls 1500-2000 secretaries to Dera.

All this is only to support an open mind, and encourage the courts to investgate thoroughly. </p>
<p>There already is the court judgements and the FDA judgments against the Singh brothers. Those are thoroughly documented. </p>
<p>Now we have the Luthra and Luthra investigations and those of the Fortis board, and others, into to illegal loans, and the terminations of the Singh brothers.</p>
<p>Those are matters of record.</p>
<p>Next are the $400M in unauthorized and uncollateralized loans to the Dhillons basically embezzled from the Fortis hospital system. And finally that those Dhillon loans were never paid, but serviced by creating new loans based on collateral of the Dhillons in part <br />
Based on the artificial value bolstered by the prior loans.</p>
<p>When you look at all the information, you see that one individual funded the expansion from the trusts into Religare, mentored the Singh brothers, signed his wife and family members as principles in a number of new shell companies, including the Fortis healthcare acquisition, and then promoted the Singhs as principles at Fortis : Gurindar Singh Dhillon.</p>
<p>The legality of all this is up to the courts. The atribution of blame is up to the courts. </p>
<p>But the ethics of nepotism involved, of siphoning and embezzlement, of illegal leveraged loans on top of leveraged loans, and the business entity whose name is the center of all of this is well supported: Gurinder Singh Dhillon.</p>
<p>Such activists have nothing to do with being a Sant Sat Guru. </p>
<p>Is devotion to saving souls really just a sideline? </p>
<p>All that I was taught by Maharaji, by Sawan and Jaimal Singh says the opposite. Love of the lord is the single occupation of the Saints. </p>
<p>You might draw a different conclusion. It is your right to do so. </p>
<p>And if any of this is actually Baba Ji's intention, it is not to throw off those who accept their responsibility to make their own decision, regardless of the outcome. </p>
<p>It is to throw off those who cling to superstitious myths, so attached to their salvation they cannot let any risk enter in, even relinquishing their dignity as adults. </p>
<p>Yes, this may ask be part of Baba Ji's plan. Though you would have to go within to set it. </p>
<p>And the plan is the destruction of the religion that RSSB had become, and the corrupt financial institution that is the current RSSB. </p>
<p>Who better to do this than the Master? </p>

(3) 🤣🤣🤣</p>
<p>With talk of a woman being appointed, I started thinking about the bizarre role that the wives of Gurinder and Shivinder (Shabnam and Atiti, respectively) have played in this financial scandal. If these women are just “homemakers” then WHY do these men list companies in their wives names?? Clearly Gurinder has been putting business first over the years earning an unGodly amount of money (fun to say 😉). Here’s an article from several years back. Just look how active his “wife” was in their family companies then!! BTW, I’m guessing SGGD stands for Shabnam Gurkeerat Gurpreet Dhillon. Just a guess... see article link below. </p>
<p>Must continuously read and refresh our memories to get a clear picture of this whoppingly gigantic convoluted mess!</p>

<p>If they say that they want to save you by telling you to literally worship the leader of the cult ie "listen to the sound" and imagine his face, they are even more dangerous.</p>

My first comment was just like we all test Mike before making announcement. I have been going to Dera Beas since 40 yrs, that's my age too. I have been witness to Maharaj charan singhji's time, his demise and subsequent installation of throne on head of the current guru. I started going as everyone in my family used to be their followers. <br />
In earlier times, everything used to be very simple and pleasing. Be it the designs of building, sheds, sewa, Sanjay, sewadars, cars, flats. But slowly everything kept on changing. It's like think Big, do Big. The inclusion of higher officials of army, administration etc into higher echelon of Dera management have brought the ' Superior than thou ' attitude amongst the jathedars and higher officials of Dera administration. They just run everything in a dictatorial manner by giving justified and unjustified orders. <br />
RSSB is quick to adopt technologies. They have details of every sewadar, his family members, his vehicles, business etc. What they do with that, I don't understand. Frankly speaking, they are running a state within a state. They have their own rules, not answerable to anyone. That is why they do everything with impunity. They don't care at all. They have supporters in every political party and administration.Political parties don't dare to annoy Dera supporters. That's why everything has been moving at snail's pace. They don't allow media in the Dera. That's why it hasn't become a full blown media story yet. It will become one, for sure. But will take time. As elections are coming up in 8-9 months, I am not sure how much delay they will make in completing the investigations.<br />
All those persons who say that Dera and fortis/religare don't have close relationship, are fools. There is a Fortis hospital on Chandigarh road at Ludhiana. When they couldn't find a suitable place for the hospital, they were simply given the land from the satsang Ghar land. Now Fortis hospital is in front and satsang Ghar is behind it. <br />
I will shed more light on the deeds later. We should be rational and objective, not be blind followers. Don't feel bad, they are going to harvest, what they have down. </p>Osho Robbins commented on 'RSSB calls 1500-2000 secretaries to Dera.

The real change is that the investigations will forever be publicly documented and never again will RSSB be able to hoodwink so many true seekers who take the decision to ask for initiation as a serious responsibility.</p>
<p>Spence, I hope you'd agree GSD is entitled to a fair hearing<br />
since he's promised a "statement at an opportune time". <br />
One of those bombshell articles makes clear GSD hasn't<br />
been fingered as a wrong doer either. If RSSB is the nasty,<br />
malign cult the blog rabble have imputed it to be, surely'<br />
one of his shadowy confederates would've flipped and<br />
thrown him under the bus by now. Journalists would have<br />
pounced on evidences of "ostrich skin" jackets, offshore<br />
accounts, Maserati's, and juicy bacchanalia. What am<br />
I missing, who's being hoodwinked?</p>
<p>Whatever's revealed, the stain on RSSB is outsize. Perhaps<br />
that's due to the absurd expectations that GIHF is gonna<br />
stage-manage destinies to comport with some idealized<br />
image of how "holy folks" should behave. In any case, the<br />
legal drama should unfold so more is known without a rush<br />
of kangaroos (also called a "mob" in the plural) to judgment.</p>

<p>Actually, this is more about how both foreigners and upper class Indians use poor Indians as mascots. Look at Labor of Love or the other books about Seva from RSSB, or watch that video on the site which shows how all the loving poor Indian people are so spiritually enlightened, and material concerns are the last thing on their mind. </p>
<p>You're told they travel from long distances out of nothing but the most pure intentions. They have no malice in their hearts. All they care about is love, light, life, and being angelic perfection in human form....</p>
<p>Then you read the comments here from all those angels. Comments like "fuck you bastard!" and "you will suffer for disrespecting my baba ji!" and whatever else. The whole facade is just blown apart after reading these comments and you realize that RSSB, like most religions, simply doesn't have any innate power to change the nature of man.</p>
<p>There is nothing about these religions that has ever been proven effective in making people better. "Good" people, regardless of any background concerns, usually remain "good." Same for "bad" folks. When you read about transformations, those stories are exceptions to the rule.</p>
<p>The fact that you're not allowed to communicate with them at Dera should sort of tell you something about the falsity of the propaganda. A lot of those angels are good, a lot of them are really bad, and RSSB will never change them. They're here cussing and hoping death upon us.
