Subject: Master Meets Estranged Mum
Message:
I didn't know that the Perfect Master ever met with his estranged mother before she died, but, according to People Magazine, he did.

People Magazine, March 5, 1984:

The Perfect Master: When Maharaj Ji was 8, his mother said he was perfect. By the time he was 17, he had developed a few habits that even a mother couldn't condone -- eating meat, drinking liquor, nightclubbing and marrying his American secretary, just to name a few. For these and other transgressions against the holy Hindu path, his mother took away his leadership of the Divine Light Mission and gave it to her oldest son, Bal Bhagwan Ji. Maharaji fought it, but Mom knows best. At 26, with four kids, he lives in Miami and Malibu, completely dependent on the kindness of strangers and friends. No problem. Though he does not call himself the leader of any official group, religious or otherwise, Maharaji has more than a million followers by one aide's estimate. He still does as he wants, but his mother doesn't seem to mind. A few years ago she visited him in Malibu. 'We had a nice talk,' he says. 'She said everything was A-OK.'

Hi Joe,
I remember a two page article in the Denver Post ( or whatever the main Denver newspaper is called) that was mainly an interview with Bob Mishler. It came out to coincide with the program in Denver in 79-Feb? Anyway it was a very interesting article and went into more detail than the interview printed here on ex premie org. You may be able to dig it up in your research.

Not true JW.
The last time they met was in malibu in 74.
You know that story right?
I have the official dlm version of it. In print.
I read that when -people- came out with it and knew it was misleading then.
The part that said 'maharaji fought it but mom knows best'
was also part of the deception. He won the fight in india.
The judge threw out his brothers case after asking him
'what is the greatest sin?' and bbj said 'jealosy' the judge said
'jealousy? you were the one that was jealous he was the guru'
Then the judge asked prem rawat what is the greatest sin and
pr said 'not to recognise the god that created you' and the
judge said case dismissed and put aside bbj's suit against
prem.
That's the official dlm version.

shp sandra kieth will unfortunately find strength in that story.

Or at least told the story in a way to make it seem like
all had been patched up with her.
By the way, what's the likelyhood of her using the word
A-OK?

She didn't go to America to malibu after that visit in 74
where she called the cops because she couldn't see her
16 yr old son because security at the gate said 'no'.
She told the cops that 'mission managers' were holding her
son captive and wouldnt let her see him.
Turned out it was worse than that. HE didn't want to see her.
He told the cops that she could call the next day and make
an appointment.
Granted, she was the holiest mother of creation and he
was needing some distance from mom.
She was telling him what was right and wrong (about some things)
and although he said later that she and the family wanted to
have dominion over people and that the perfect master didn't come
to have dominion over people. Of course he then went
into COMPLETE dominion mode as we know and he wasn't starting
from square one, he had been the lord for years and was
well into dominion already.

Yes, I have heard from a couple of sources over the years that Maharaji actually lost the lawsuit in India to his mom and Bal Bahgwan Ji. That's why he lost Prem Negar and most of the properties in India, as well as the use of the DLM name in India.
That's what the lawsuit was about -- properties and money. That's why I heard the judge got so pissed. These supposed spiritual leaders fighting like children over money, in the most spiteful fashion, while all the while preaching love and truth.

Subject: BM's Response to Mishler
Message:
I did a Nexis search and found some good stuff that I will share gradually, as time permits. This first one is from the Associated Press dated January 22, 1979 [Please notice Maharaji's pitiful 'what about me' comment]:

The Maharaj Ji, who came to the United States as a child guru, has become an object of veneration instead of a teacher of truth, a critic says.

'He has bastardized the teaching of the gurus,' said Robert Mishler, worldwide president of the Maharaj Ji's Divine Light Mission until 1976...'Now people are taught to learn the truth about him the Maharaj Ji, instead of themselves.'

...many followers do appear to believe the Maharaj Ji has god like qualities or is himself God.

'That kind of absolute dominion over people provides a corrupting influence,' said Mishler, claiming the guru's followers, 'will literally do anything he tells them.'

A mission spokesman estimated membership in the United States is about 12,000, with 1.2 million worldwise, mostly in India.

While followers flock to Malibu to be near their spiritual leader, the Maharaj Ji limits himself to speeches at national festivals and world tours. He travels to and from his estate by limosine or private helicopter.

Mishler said he left the group after trying to get the Maharaj Ji to tell his followers that he was not God, and to live only off his own tax free gifts, instead of income from the missions as he was. He said the mission took in over $5 million in 1976.

'When I proposed that I remember his exact words,' Mishler said, 'the Maharaj Ji asked, 'What about me?''

Joe Anctil, a spokesman for DLM based in Denver, said Mishler 'freaked out' because his job as international director was discontinued. Anctil described the mission as 'a group of individuals who live autonomously, practice a meditation and do selfless service. The Maharaj Ji is a spiritual inspiration for those people who do meditation.'

On the question of whether the Maharaj Ji is regarded as god, he said 'If you asked every member of the mission, they would each give you a different answer.'

Mishler said another factor in his split with the Maharaj Ji was his suggestion to sell the Malibu estate, because it had been purchased with mission funds. 'They've probably signed it over to Maharaj Ji by now,' he said.

Anctil said the mansion belongs to Maharaj Ji. Asked if it had been given to him by the church, Anctil said, 'That's none of your business or mine.'

He also declined to discuss the mission's net worth.

Dear JW,

This is just the sort of nothingness that couldn't fuel a llama dung-propelled vehicle to the next dirt-mound. Did you, or anyone you know, like and respect Bob Mishler while he was alive? I don't know a single person who would say that and I doubt anyone on your list would either, if they were honest. He was the epitome of a 'suit.' He tried to mold and package Maharaji in a way that M was obviously uncomfortable with and M gave him the boot. Most everyone I know cheered at the time. Now, in your revisionist cosmology, Bob Mishler was this wonderful, free-thinking guy. Give me a fuckin' break! That is outlandish. He was an over-caffeined power-tripper who is probably more responsible, in many ways, for the odd and slightly hysterical view many of the 'old-timers' on this list have of M, DLM etc. than Maharaji himself, however little you may like or comprehend him.

Bob Mishler had no credibility then...and he has even less now. It is astounding to me that anybody would take his words so seriously in 1999. This is a guy who people wouldn't even walk down the street to hear. People regularly muttered what a controlling asshole he was. And you're automatically taking his word over someone, who for at least some part of your life, you'd happily travel huge distances to be around. Can you really talk yourself into believing that there was nothing major going on for you that you would ever do such things. Do you really think you were such a total dolt?

Did you ever really care what Bob Mishler said. Why on earth would you now?

Or they say, 'In spite of so-and-so being a big pam, I always felt (s)he was a person with a big heart and I sure hope (s)he is doing well now and found their way to leave Miragey.'

Also, the case was that we knew him and others like him because they were relatively accessible (compared Miragey). We could ask the questions one-to-one after a program and did.

Caffeined? He had that up 21 hours a day look of any of the idiots who tried to serve that megalo-mirage.

Hi chr,

Not true at all. Bob Mishler annoyed and upset many people when he was DLM president and I found him over-hyped and quite cold at the time, NOT just in retrospect. He very much seemed a power-tripper and both he and Mike Donner (a bit later) made numerous representations of what Maharaji said or wanted that turned out to be their own creations. It was no surprise when he and M parted ways. It's only a surprise that anyone's listening to Mishler's crap now. People that I knew only respected Mishler for his access to M, not his own qualities and were disappointed in him when they found out he was translating and pushing things to suit his own agenda. That's what I remember from THAT time, not later. The revisionism is in making Mishler something he never was.

Enjoy your Saturday night, Billy

Whatever Bob Mishler was actually like, and opinions will always vary, he had access to M and the workings of DLM in a way that few others, if any, have had. Just because of that aspect alone, he is worth listening to. BTW much of what he said I found out later to be true from my own personal experiences around M.

Well first, Billy, I suggest you calm down and try to be rational rather than just engage in ranting. Try to remember holy name or something, no wait, I guess you aren't supposed to do that anymore. Well, take a few deep breaths anyway.

This is just the sort of nothingness that couldn't fuel a llama dung-propelled vehicle to the next dirt-mound. Did you, or anyone you know, like and respect Bob Mishler while he was alive?

Yes, I did respect Mishler when he was alive, very much so, and every premie I knew did as well. Other than the fact he wore a suit, what exactly was your problem with him?

He tried to mold and package Maharaji in a way that M was obviously uncomfortable with and M gave him the boot. Most everyone I know cheered at the time. Now, in your revisionist cosmology, Bob Mishler was this wonderful, free-thinking guy. Give me a fuckin' break!

Misler has stated publicly that he tried to 'mold' Maharaji only to the extent of stating publicly that he wasn't god, which seemed more than reasonable because most of the premies believed he was, and he wasn't, and, in fact, Mishler was correct and Maharaji has since stated he isn't god. I think it's you, Billy, that is engaging in revisionism here. I have never stated that Mishler was a saint, but I think it took a lot of courage for him to come out publicly and expose Maharaji for the fraud he is. He had nothing to personally gain by doing that.

Bob Mishler had no credibility then...and he has even less now.

This is bullshit. Maybe he has no credibility with you, but history has proven his credibility. As I said, Maharaji, eventually, pretty much followed the advice Mishler gave him about stating he wasn't god, in 1976, he just did it about 10 years late.

And you're automatically taking his word over someone, who for at least some part of your life, you'd happily travel huge distances to be around. Can you really talk yourself into believing that there was nothing major going on for you that you would ever do such things. Do you really think you were such a total dolt?

Billy, what 'word' has BM ever muttered about what Mishler said? Has he ever, even once, ever denied anything Mishler said, even though it's been 20 years since he said it? No, not once. Maybe he is too chickenshit, or maybe it's because what Mishler said was true. I really did believe Maharaji was god incarnate for the 10 years I followed him. I would have appreciated knowing that wasn't true. And Maharaji NEVER corrected that error, in fact he played it for all it was worth, having us kiss his feet and being referred to as Lord of the Universe. And he had every greedy financial motive to do that, because donations were drying up in 1976 when BM started doing what Mishler suggested andt started cooling the god-thing. Then he went in the opposite direction, because he wanted to continue to be worshiped and for the money. It's Maharaji who is deceitful, not Mishler.

Did you ever really care what Bob Mishler said. Why on earth would you now?

As I said, yes I did care, and the premies I knew also did. Since he was around the BM so closely, that gives his comments a lot of credibility? And Billy, again, if Mishler is wrong, why hasn't Maharaji ever, even once, responded to Mishlers allegations? Hmmmm?

Again Billy-Nilly, Nilly- Billy(whoever, whatever...as long as we can spend this precious time together...you know what I mean?), there's only one source of revisionism in this thread, and its YOU. YOU take the term Bullshit Revisionism to a completely new dimension...you really bring it alive with your acid vein, fuckbrain bastardization of the truth. Here's how.
You said,
Did you, or anyone you know, like and respect Bob Mishler while he was alive? I don't know a single person who would say that...(emphasis my own)
And I never met a person who had ANYTHING BAD TO SAY about Bob Micheler. My involvement in the cult started in 1972, ended in 1998 and all that time I never met a single premie who had even one negative thing to say about him. When he was in m's service , no other premie from the west was more respected. After he and m parted ways, the conspiracy of silence surrounding Bob's departure was quite noticeable. PAMers who succeeded him would not really engage in an honest discussion as to why Bob left. That kind of honest discussion would of course, only serve to stir up doubts among the premies as to m's legitimacy and validity in being who he(m), had so outrageously declared he was(and in those early days...it was 'Lord of the Universe' and 'Perfect Master' of course).
' He tried to mold and package Maharaji in a way that M was obviously uncomfortable with and M gave him the boot
Wrong again genius.
M gave Bob the boot, because he clearly feared the negative financial consequences of moving away from a heavy devotional mindset in his cult, and that was the direction he (Bob) was encouraging m to move in for the sake of everyone's sanity and well-being. The direction Bob wanted m to move in, was towards a more humane environment for people to discover the 'experience of knowledge'. Unfortunately, m was more interested in the experience of being a greedy grubby, fat little fuck.
He was an over-caffeined power-tripper who is probably more responsible, in many ways, for the odd and slightly hysterical view many of the 'old-timers' on this list have of M, DLM etc. than Maharaji himself, however little you may like or comprehend him.
Bullshit again... Bob's departure in 1977 marked m's plunge into one of the worst 'headfucking' periods in the cult's history. One only needs to look at M's quotes from that era, to see how now as an adult, with no mother, no Bob Mishler to mold him, m on his own chose a path of psychological ,emotional and financial abuse for his followers.
Bob Mishler doesn't match your description above. If one reads the interview with him conducted just a few months before his death in a helicpter crash in 1979, one gets the feeling that Mishler could have easily, and probably would have eventually eaten up m for breakfast and then spit out the bones. He had m's number. Clearly for m and his PAMers, he represented a major problem. That helicopter accident in which he died, clearly saved m's ass.
Had Mishler lived m might have packed it in long ago. But he didn't, and now Billy -Nilly, you get to treat us to your pathetic bullshit, revisionist cosmology.
But since you're such an obvious maven, and given the fact that m had so much to gain from Bob's death,why don't you answer this question for us?
Did Maharaji order the death of Bob Mishler?
What information can you share with us, that would prove that m and/or some of his PAMers were not involved in this?
Now don't get all huffy and puffy over this Billy-Nilly, remember stress is a killer too(along with helicopter crashes of course).
Just deal with it.

If M had had anything to do with the death, it would have come out. Despite the extreme paranoia of Maharaji and his organization, most of all the rotten stuff about Maharaji eventually comes out. Do you think the details of Maharaji's ongoing adulterous affair with Moncia Lewis would be common knowledge among the premies as it is, if he had any success whatsoever in actually keeping this stuff secret?

The M of the 70's had the unquestioned authority and many people wanted the chance to prove their devotion above and beyond the call of duty.

The problem with a cult is that people are ready to do the dirty work and are on an active search for the dirtiest job they can find. That's the way it works and it's safer that way the for the object of affection/worship/cultistdevotion.

What I'm saying is, it's wouldn't be as possible now, but in the past I definitely considered my own safety often in term of speaking out again M.

And I 've been talking to one guy in Montreal who was threatened by premies sometime in the latter 80's or early 90's when he started speaking out against m.
I understand where you're coming from on this point, Run(at least I hope I do)but then again, it raises another question on my part.
At what point then, do I draw the line?
If we're dealing with people , who as you say
... basically don't think
and
people are ready to do the dirty work and are on an active search for the dirtiest job they can find
well perhaps we're all better off not speaking out at all?
What criteria should one use to evaluate a safe topic of conversation, that is one that won't incur the wrath of some deranged premie?
And is a 'safe' conversation one, that's even worth having?
Hmmm.

Oh, definitely, we need to talk about it. And, like I said, it's not as dangerous as it was once. M just doesn't have the power, and it probably is because of this website and earlier internet activity more than any other single reason. However, we still need to be cautious for our own sake.

I mean, the dude talked people out of millions by claiming to be the messiah. That does give him a motive (although motive isn't proof).

I have often wondered if M did it to Mishler.

Zac, this is just speculation on my part, but we know that Bob was married to a premie.
Here's where the speculation comes in. I've heard(not from a definitive source mind you, and that's why I say its only speculation) that while Bob made the break with m , his wife didn't, but nonetheless they(that is Bob and his wife) some how maintained their relationship. I'm wondering if this can be confirmed by bb, or if there's anyone else who might have some information on this.
What I'm suggesting( again in a speculative manner)
is this. If SHE was part of Bob's life at the time of his death, then SHE is the one who could very well have ended up with the copy of Bob's book.
If that's the case, and if she was at the time still a 'premie' in terms of her relationship with m , well then SHE could very well be the link through which m's goons might already, have the manuscript of Bob's expose book on m.

Suffice to say, your need to prop up Bob Mishler comes from the fact that a fair bit of the mythology that fuels your list comes from his little interview. Since virtually all of your 'facts' and conclusions are completely askew, for the benefit of those here who may have a faint interest in reality and not just in shish-kebabing Maharaji, every single paragraph you wrote is entirely untrue and the essence of misinformation. Try to have a wee bit of restraint and keep your hellish, moth-infested theories to areas you have at least a vague notion about.

Doesn't anyon else think it's a little odd that no one even knows how Mishler died? I mean that's a really big difference, to die of a heart attack or to die in a helicopter crash. If no one even knows how Bob Mishler died who's to say that Maharaji wasn't involved. He certainly had the most to gain by Mishler's death, and he also had the means(money and power) to get it done. Either way I doubt that Maharaji was broken up over Mishler's death. Of course there's no proof and it's just speculative, but at the very least I don't think its out of the realm of possibility and I don't really care if some brain dead gurunoids think I'm 'half crazed' to discuss it.

Zac,

Let's research what did happen from written sources and then discuss whether there was foul play. We do believe that M covered up a very serious assault and that he is heavyhanded with security. We also know that he has (and esp. has had) overzealous followers who are looking to do the dirty work of God. Look at the people who post gibberish all the time here. Are those the people we are worried about thinking we are paranoid? Those are people who are predisposed toward cultist fanaticism.

There's no evidence that M did Mishler in but there is plenty of motive for it.

Orlando: Unlike Billy, I think you can understand the difference between a rumor and 'some unanswered questions' that should be investigated. Watergate was a 'rumor' until it was investigated. Just about anything qualifies as a 'rumor' until it is investigated. The terms 'alleged' and 'rumored' are almost synonymous. So, there you go.

BTW, I was around back then, too. I met and LIKED Bob. I would have gladly gone to any satsang where he was the featured speaker. He was a tireless, devoted, single-minded devotee. EVERYONE (except Billy, maybe) saw that and had a great amount of respect for it and him. Billy is the revisionist, not us. He would like everyone to THINK that no one liked Bob, but he is totally wrong. In fact, I don't have any reason to believe that Billy even knew OF Bob, much less actually met him. His remarks here seem to indicate that he has no idea who he is talking about.

Additionally, when Bob died, I MYSELF wondered if M had anything to do with it. Bob's death left alot of unanswered questions, in my mind and left TONS of room for doubt. It was my very first experience of 'drip, drip, drip!' That's the truth!

Orlando: You said, 'Speculations and rumors are not presented as such and it is very sad.' Not true.... you just aren't reading the posts correctly. Let me give you an example: When you read, in a newspaper, the term 'alleged,' what does it mean to you? If it means anything other than 'rumored' then you aren't reading it correctly, because that's all it is.... a rumor.... and EVERYONE should know that. It ALWAYS a rumor until it's PROVEN!

In the case of this thread, read it again. You will see things like, 'DID M HAVE Bob killed?' That's a QUESTION, not a rumor. A rumor would be, 'M is alleged to have had Bob done in,' etc, etc. A rumor doesn't have a (?) after it, it has a (.) or a (!) after it.... see what I mean?

If you asked me whether I could believe that M would do something like that, I would probably say no. BUT, and this is a biggie, I wouldn't have believed that he would protect a muderous hammer-wielding mahatma (fakiranand) or a pedophile (jagdeo), either. AND YET, he has done those very things. So, now I'm not so sure about what he might or might not do. The fakiranand event, by the way, was another in a long list of 'drips' during my active premie career. I didn't know about jagdeo until fairly recently.

In newspapers, the term 'alleged' is NOT a rumor. it usually means that someone, say, has been arrested and is awaiting trial, but has not been judged guilty by a jury yet (in the trial). Newspaper have to use this term to avoid being sued in case the person is declared innocent...

The only thing that has happened is a 'question' was asked. A possibility discussed. No facts, yet, but the question has been asked, so I'm sure at least a few more facts will be forthcoming. Probably not conclusive, one way or the other.

This forum is for discussion. A newspaper is NOT for discussion. There is a difference. Discussion does NOT equal rumor.

On top of his great intelligence and awesome communication skills, I found him to be in person a very genuine, warm human being.
Considering, the heavy responsibilities he had assumed in his service to m, he was 'all there' to extend a hand of friendship to this little ashram premie from Montreal, or at least to say hello in a very warm and genuine way.

I believe that a question that is on many people's minds these days,(that is both ex-premies and pwk's) is how could it happen, that m knowing what he did regarding Mahatma Jagdeo, failed to do anything appropriate about these serious allegations of child molestation. Jagdeo was allowed to carry on in his service to m, and other incidents occurred.
By allowing Jagdeo to carry on in his service , m was in effect throwing his support behind him, propping him up instead of letting him fall. Perhaps it was decided by m and his top PAMers at the time, that as long as there didn't seem to be any imminent threat of legal challenges,well then , nothing had to be done. There was no need therefor to punish Jagdeo. THe matter could simply be swept under the rug.
However m processed the information in this situation, whatever the ethical considerations he considerd or didn't consider in arriving at his decision or indecision, the point that I would like to make here, is that a despicable, slimey, creep like Jagdeo (and by the accounts of so many who met him he was indeed exactly that) was allowed to carry on in his service, to carry on with his life as though HE HAD DONE NO SERIOUS WRONG.
Now this is a story of another mahatma that has already been told on these pages, and which was relayed to me in a chat that I had with Gail, and it is in juxtaposition with this story that I believe we ought to consider the first.
Its the story of Mahatma Rajeshwar.
Now I know that many of you remember Mahatmaji. He was exceptionally popular, well-liked and yes, even loved by many premies in the west... and for good reason. Yes, he was part of a cult, in fact he was one of its leading apostles and spokespersons, but he was also a fundamentally decent man, a beautiful man who genuinely cared for those around him.
Having seved as a judge, a career which he gave up to serve m, he somehow had a more realistic and balanced view of the world, as compared to some of the other mahatmas whom m brought to the west.
In fact some of the mahatmas I met seemed to be totally uneducated psychotic, babblers of m's rhadasoamiism. If you had a problem of course, it was because you hadn't yet surrendered your life at the lotus feet of Shri Guru Maharaji.
But Rajeshwar was different. Not that m wasn't the LOTU for him, but he was so down to earth , so personable, for myself and many others he really stood apart from the other mahatmas.
Now I saw Rajeshwar in Toronto in 1984. I hadn't seen him for a while. We went for a summer's stroll along with a few premies. I was surprised when he told me that he was no longer a mahatma, that he was just visiting at the invitation of some premies in the west. He didn't really speak of what had happened to him, but I could see that Rajeshwar was just not the same guy. The man's dynamism, his joy in being alive had somehow taken a serious beating.
I did not know then what I know now. That his wife was seriously sick in India, and Rajeshwar wanting to be with her, was refused permission by m to to go back to India. If I have the details of the rest of the story correct(and someone please correct me if I don't) Rajeshwar disobeyed m and went back to India anyways to be with his wife as she died.
For this, m stripped Rajeshwar of his mahatmaship, and I believe in a brutal callous fashion, caused him grievous emotional and psychological harm, that I do pray he recovers from(and I do hope that he's doing ok...if someone could tell me that would be nice)
So here we have our two mahamas and their tale.
Question: How come an utter slimeball like Jagdeo who's very presence is a curse on this planet, gets to survive, even thrive in m's world... and why does such a fundamentally decent and beautiful man, who's presence was always a joy to so many around him... become so humiliated and hurt by the very Lord/Master he so diligently and faithfully served.?
I believe in answering that question, one can discover the fundamental nature of m's slime.

Rajeshwar really got into the cooking!
Oh and of course you remember his favorite expression,

Hi dv

During the late 70s rajeswar was nanned from giving satsang(can't remember why). It was my service to be his personal security during this time. He sure was a sad fellow. I never exactly knew why he was banned....probably for being too human. I have good memories of him. When I went to India (circa 1983) he took me around Delhi to meet some of his important friends who he wanted to meet as Western devotee.
I don't know what happened to him. The last I heard of him was a letter I refeived circa 1984, inviting me to his daughter's wedding.

all the best Jethro

having spent quite a bit of time with Rajeswar, I found the guy
to be wonderful company - one time he cooked a few of us a great
Indian supper and the whole evening was filled with laughter and
good feeling. He is a genuinely kind and compassionate man.
In retrospect, I now realise that it was people like Rajeswar that
gave Maharaji any credibility in my eyes - if they were followers
of M then their must be something good about M, surely.
I made a mistake in thinking that way.
Actually, the great people who I spent time with in the ashram etc
were great people regardless of M.

I wonder what his karma will be!

You did a wonderful job of supporting her as a friend, as good as anyone could do, but Cardif is a long way from London, and I think that Penny had deep emotional problems which made her turn to drink and drugs -
she was very attractive and a lot of unscrupulous guys fucked her about, and the final straw was getting involved with and marrying Milky Cole - a real bastard for telling her that being raped was her karma - my heart goes out to her.
However, she also attracted loving friends like us and she lived with a good guy, John C. for a long time, who really loved and looked after her. Maybe we will meet her again somewhere, who knows.

And yet you still think you are God's gift to the ex-premie forum. Where is it exactly that you want us to 'leave'?
You claim we are in a certain place and that we should leave? Being against M and willing and wanting to express ourselves about it is not a place. Where do you think we would go? Expressing yourself in cute cliches isn't equivalent to actually addressing the issues.

You would like us to say that our issues with Miragey are not major issues and that we are blowing past problems out of proportion. The truth is, giving years of one's life, or LARGE sums of money are major issues. This is without going into more serious issues of abuse.

On a more negative note, the inablity of Mirage to be held accountable for his own claims (in the form of direct quotes and written statements) aggravates our claims. I didn't claim I would establish peace on earth and I didn't claim to be God or greater than God. But you know what? I never would have given what I gave if I hadn't been duped by these claims.

Message:
Since the former LOTU is unable or unwilling to defend himself, I notice that his minions have decided to do so on his behalf, and such a fine job they are doing, too! I mean, two visits from members of the Reaper family in one week! Did M recently use that word in a video so that you are working it into your feeble vocabulary?
If K really works for you, why do you need to come here and attack those who are dealing with painful issues? Why are you so incapable of empathy? If K is so beautiful and completes your life, why are you incapable of showing any love for others? When I was a premie, I heard a lot about love, but one of the truths which helped me leave was the realization that, for all the talk about love, I never really experienced love among the premies. And the actions of several premies on this site illustrate this lack of love. Do you really think that by picking on Selene and Gail and G's Mom you are helping spread K? Do you really think that by spewing your mis-spelled, hate-filled missives on this site that people will want to have what you have? Do you think that by calling us losers and victims that you some how elevate premiedom and M? Do you ever use your brain? Start attacking me for the honor of your Lord; I can take it, but think about what you are doing and what you are saying here. If you are serious about the good you claim K and M have done for you, prove it by acting with love.

I really dig your posts!

You mentioned the Rome festival somewhere in a thread.

I really should have left the guru cult after that festival because I saw all the problems mothers with their children had, and how no one seemed to care, much less the guru in charge of it all; also I just saw how absurd it was to travel all that ways to sit in that wierd bull ring and wait for the guru to show up and scream at us. To hear him say the same things he has always said.
And yet, I somehow pushed away those gut feelings I had. I remember I would justify whatever stupid stuff I saw go on with, 'oh well, the spiritual path is not easy' or 'Yeah, but it was their choice (mothers with children) to come.' or 'The guru is not here to make our lives easier, he's revealing the Ultimate Truth!' or 'we have to learn surrender' (which was his favorite word back then.) or one of my favorites: 'he's supposed to blow our concepts'. That works for anything. Any idiotic stuff can be totally explained by that one!

Oh, you had the concept that the Ultimate Truth was supposed to make people nice? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!! Or, you had the concept that the Ultimate Truth was somehow linked to doing good in the world? Ha ha ha ha ha !!!

Someone was saying something, I think it was shp, about doing 'service' at an event and just how incredibly rude the people in charge were to him and his wife, and then I think someone was saying well people are ass holes everywhere, not just in M's cult.
But you know, I don't believe that. I have been involved in a church for about 10 years, and I've done a lot of setting up of chairs and doing mundane volunteer work at various places, and I've been involved with the PTA.
And ya know, I usually have a great time because people do NOT act like ass holes! If they did, I would not continue belonging to those organizations! Most people at volunteer events are nice. Why was it that there were so many unbelievable jerks at the guru's events? I think it's because there was a huge lie happening. There was something rotten at the core of it all and it affected people in all kinds of weird ways.

Around the time I was leaving M & K (1988) I spoke to an old friend who had become an instructor. I began telling her some of the things I had been experiencing in meditation and she cut me off by saying that M did not want people talking about their experiences in meditation. I think it was then that I really realised that I was in a cult. I went to see M about a year later, more out of curiosity than anything else, and, listening with 'new ears',was astounded by the amount of convoluted, irrelevant drivel in his satsang and the way the premies laughed on cue at every inane, insipid, childish joke. As with everything else, it was one rule for the master, another for the devotees. BTW, I am still coming to terms with your information about Jagdeo. I knew him quite well and am aware of quite a few mothers who came with their children to do service at the ashram when he was there, specifically to support him. Many times we ( the ashram brothers) were at work while Jagdeo was with these mothers and children. I am hoping nothing occurred at these times. It is a sore and sensitve area with me as my own daughter( now 26) was molested over a 4 year period by her stepfather-a premie- while I was oblivious in the ashram. When the ashrams were disbanded , she came and lived with me for her teenage years and I tried to make up for my desertion of her. A lot of counselling and a lot of love helped heal the wounds, but she still bears the inner scars of that time.

That is really scary about the Ashram and so sad about your daughter. I hope she is doing well. We can only hope the moms did not leave the kids with Jagdeo while they did laundry or whatever. What year was this do you think that they would come to do service with the kids?

to answer the first part of my post. I am sure it was just an oversite that seems to be common amongst rowatt lovers, anyway here it is again.

Sandra,
So the fact that M has protected people like jagdeo by his silence makes no difference to you.
The fact that YOU are having a 'wonderful experience' gives M license to do anything.

Is that right?

Silent assent isn't just M's problem, it's a premie problem, too. 'Say nothing about anything that doesn't affect me personally.... that's the ticket.'

Welcome to our club house. AS you can see, we are a little band of loosers and whiners. Our lives suck and it makes us so sad. Should we blame ourselves? Hell no!!! This is the 90's. Everyone can be a victim. Being a victim is the IN thing now days. It sure beats taking responsibility for our own lives. If you can blame someone else for the pathetic condition you've gotten yourself into....join the club. Admisssion is free. All you have to do is have hate in your heart and be a coward. You must blame someone else for the decissions you made in your life. And you must hate that person with all your might. There...dont you feel better already?
So dont forget our rules.
1. Hate,Hate,Hate (you know who)
2. be a victim.....Its so chic!
3. Remember, you have to blame someone...(you know who)
4. Remain in the company of other VICTIMS and LOSERS (try hanging out here)

Ferddy,

Your post has done what I didn't think could happen to me, but you've convinced me that this is all wrong. In fact, sick and wrong. I'm not a loser. I'm not a whiner. I'm no longer a victim. I no longer hate HIM. They were solely my decisions and there was no influence from Maharaji or the premies.

Thank you, Ferddy. Thank you, thank you, thank you. You don't know what this means to me. I don't know how you did it, but I'm completely changed and reborn. Years of therapy, imprisonment, institutionalization, electo-convulsive therapy, and a lobotomy were useless and did nothing. And now you've come and saved me from my own doing.

Where to now, Ferddy. You've spoken, I've awoken. And I'm ready to follow.

Ferddy,

You're missing an experience to enhance your life here. So near, yet so far away. I suggest you find the nearest bunch of Premies, go along to an introductory video (it's cool, it's simply meditation stuff, nothing to join, you'll feel great). Once you've understood that there's an infinite wealth of joy within, then get initiated. All will be revealed. From this deep inner experience, you'll come to recognise the one who revealed it as the Lord in human form. Then begin serving him. The best way is to help out a bit financially- not that he's into money, it's just more practical. Who knows, you might even get a position in the organisation.

Soon you'll start to see that only the premies really know what's happening on the planet. The other 3000 million are all deluded. You'll be one of the chosen ones.

Then, finally, you'll wake up one morning and say, 'Shit. I've been brainwashed. I'm in a cult. I never thought it could happen to me, but it did.'

Then Ferddy my friend, you'll be ready to come on this site and reap the true joy, the true benefit and satisfaction of being an Ex-premie. It's an experience that you have to have for yourself. It can't be described in mere words. It's akin to joy, liberation, happiniess, but somehow, beyond them all.

It's a long and winding road.

Read an excellent quote that reminded me of Rawat and his followers:

Aren't you that English woman who was married to Prince Charles' younger brother? Do you do Weight Watchers adds now? Must have a big following from that already, why do you need more, more, more followers.
I guess we have all the reason in the world to lie and exaggerate but M has no motivation for all these alleged activities he is involved in, darshan, donations, drinking etc. I know someone who was very close to M before Millenium and use to smoke pot with M every evening. He doesn't hate M but knows this is a scam.

I hope all you confused and bitter ex-premies take this premie's heartfelt and very intelligent sharing to heart. Can't you feel that love coming from Ferddy which is obviously coming from THAT PLACE, of that joy, that love and that peace, which is that gift, which is that gift of this life that you are so gifted to receive from the one who can give that gift and you can only have that experience of that gift if you have that thirst and listen to the heart, if you follow the heart, and have that understanding? It is all so simple to have that beauty, isn't it? I mean, clearly Ferddy has not agenda whatsoever and being so filled with that love he would never BS anyone at all, as shown by his love-filled comments.

Jai Satchitanand, Bohle Shri, Twameva Mata, and please, please please teach me devotion.
