Chari Is Worth His Weight In Gold

This article was taken from Elodie's blog (France) and translated using Google Translate by 4d-don.

I have personally seen the same thing at "fundamentalist" Christian churches (Religion) where millions are raised by "charismatic" preachers for all sorts of "material" temples to the "glory of God". In this case, water fountains and landscaping for a park so as to make it look more "NATURAL" no doubt.

Master is worth his weight in gold

An unknown abhyasi sent me this transcript of Chariji's words of November 18, 2007 at Tiruppur without further comments.

Indeed it could go without comment. Chariji made the "collection", and benefits from the desire of every abhyasi to approach him, so as to pocket a passage ticket of 1,000 rupees ($25.50 US).

Elodie


Master led the satsangh until 9:50 in the morning (from 9 am to 9:50). After the satsangh, the head of Tiruppur center said that Master was stopped by very young children as he was heading to the meditation hall. They handed a small pot (plastic) filled with coins and they said to Master: "Use the money for the development of your ashram." So Master said, "Our children know exactly where their duty lies. Here also, we need to contribute to the development. "

Immediately Master took the microphone and said:" I am pleased with what's happening here and I am happy to be here. In many missions, it is customary to give a weight equal to that of the guru in gold, and even sometimes in diamonds. The guru can weigh 150 kg. The sum may unfortunately be spent freely, in the company of the film artists he enjoys. But here I hope you can all give like this (he shows the pot, which should weigh 5 kg). So, do not weigh me, please give the equivalent of these 5 kg - but only on condition that there are only 1000 rupee bills. I want the surface of this park at Tiruppur DJ to become like a paradise so that whoever flies over (Air) this site should be able to see this paradise from above.

Will you help me develop it? "

All abhyasis said, "Yes, Master"

Master: "OK, now on to the donation itself. "All abhyasis rushed to Master with 1000 rupee bills. Brothers and sisters at the same time formed a long queue, completely filling the hall and made a personal donation to Master. Master took the money from each of them, saying "Thank you. "

All abhyasis had a great opportunity to meet Master himself while giving some money. Several couples met Master so that he bless their wedding day, or name their child, etc. Which also happened in the line-up. Master joked with the children and gave chocolate to each of them and said: "It's very expensive chocolate now because it costs 1000 rupees here," and he was joking with all while collecting the money.

Master remained seated for more than two hours. Once all abhyasis had given, Master said, "When I made the Sarovar (water castle) here at this site, many asked me why it was so named. It is a KRIPA SAROVAR because today I took out hundreds of fish. I am extremely happy to welcome you all and to meet you. I can not say thank you, but I bless you all. "

It was a moment of great joy and Master left us after that. All abhyasis were filled with joy and they had the great opportunity to talk to him face to face, and Master took the trouble to sit more than two hours to make our happiness.

A Lesson in Ethics and Spirituality for all Sahaj Marg Followers

A Challenge to all Sahaj Marg followers of "good faith" and "Goodwill"!!

This is a comment left on
Elodie's blog (in French) in France by Christian, an ex-abhyasi of 18 years and a research psychologist (linguistics).




Hello Élodie,

It's good that you re-publish an article on this subject.

One must remind all one's readers that there are more visible manifestations than the subtleties (psychological mechanisms and psychosocial), which we have analyzed and unveiled on our blogs over the past months.

While our analyses could be discussed (which does not necessarily mean that they are debatable), these events are completely indisputable! That is the reality of the facts.

We must launch a challenge to all abhyasis Chari to give a justification for such extreme as well as a-spiritual acts-if such a justification is possible.

How do these people do they do to maintain their coherence other than by closing their eyes?
How can they adhere to the teachings put forward by Chari when the actions Chari has his henchmen carry out are these actions are also openly criminal, and as openly against this teachings he claims to give?

It's certainly easier to discredit our criticism with the back of his hand.

Also, let us forget the personal history of the dissidents such as those who speak out on the blogs, to consider the psychological and spiritual implications of such violence.

What do these actions mean for Chari's followers?
Do they realize by this account, in what they are trapped?

They must think about it, and once their ideas become clearer, confront their master.
Are they afraid of getting the door slammed in their face?

Do they believe that they will be damned for eternity, or that their souls will be condemned to be reborn endlessly because the Master has not helped him(her), solely because they have dared to doubt him or criticize his actions?

Do they accept this implicit blackmail, this terrorizing?
Do they have so little faith?

The most fanatic will say that this is not Chari but his followers who have taken the liberty to do this, believing to thus please their beloved master ...

These people were thus sincere, and their actions come from a good intention ...

But: Is Chari the true master in charge of directing the team, or is it his entourage who decides and directs the mission?

Does Chari not have, according to the rules and regulations of his sect, all the powers in his hands?

In that case, why did he not exert a veto against any violent action on the ashram of Shahjahanpur?

And even if the action would have taken place in his back, it is unlikely that he is not aware of it today, now that the ashram of Shahjahanpur belongs to the SRCMtm.

If he is aware of it, why has he not returned the property with an apology and compensate the victims?

Because it satisfies him, as it finally places this ashram in the hands of the SRCMtm?

Another hypothesis: He has not done so because he is the sponsor of this armed robbery.
He would then be the greedy and violent fanatic who was seizing the ultimate symbol of power that that had eluded him, to claim faultless legitimacy in the eyes of the ignorant world.

Feeling his ends approaching and seeing that a negotiated settlement would not lead to a victory in his lifetime, he would have preferred to forget all the basic spiritual tenets he had received from his master and that he pretend to teach.

His pyramidal project, his work, "his mission", would have been more important.

The end justifies the means: How is it different from the basic rules that run the world?
Nothing new to the SRCMtm, the bottom line is always the same.

This ashram of Shahjahanpur was the supreme test for Chari, established for his sole purpose by his master (Babuji) to titillate his greed and his fanaticism.

Had he succeeded, it would lead him to eternity.

A supreme test of detachment: Even this one, he failed.

But no problem, he continues to preach the necessity of detachment to his followers, who décérébrés (without brain, lobotomized, brainwashed, zombie) by the spiritual and mental control under which they have fallen, see no contradiction anywhere.

Thus the history of the ashram of Shahjahanpur reveals that the predators of the SRCMtm are not just lions, wolves or sharks: They are also vultures ...

Although I do not know the people in Babuji's (SRCM Shahjahanpur), and I do not necessarily agree with their beliefs, I sympathize and I hope with all my heart that justice will be done.

I hope that the criminals, if they do not get a sudden enlightenment and repent and correct their mistakes, will be unmasked and punished as they deserve.

I also hope that everyone understands his duty, regardless of the camp in which he finds himself: To shed light on this sordid affair so that the darkness stop progressing, and in order to wash their conscience and be able to resume their journey.

Similarly with regard to the (alleged) assassination of Babuji.

So I hope that all those who know something will find the resources to go into the trenches and engage in the battle for truth.

They should do it at least to the memory of Babuji, if not for future generations, this is called duty and sacrifice.

A Chrismas Song of Nature, Harmony and Peace

A Christmas Song of Nature, Harmony and Peace

by 4d-don

Here is a more "Natural" and Spiritual Song for ALL (not just the Christians) at Christmas...

Although it speaks of towns in the "near east", (the Traditional place of origin of the Christmas Story, although many of the Christmas "myths" and "rituals" are European) it can be "modified" (like SRCM), and the names of other towns and/or countries be included....such as other revolutionary and/or "war zones"...Tibet, Chile, Columbia, etc...)

THE BELLS OF CHRISTMAS DAY
By 4d-don (SOCAN)
Key of E (Capo 2....Play D) in 4/4 Time-Folk


I hear the bells of Christmas day
Although there are no steeples around
And all of nature bids me stay
To live in harmony and join in the Sound (Shabda?)

CHORUS
Ding, Dong, Ding, Dong
In excelsis ex Uno pluria
Ding, Dong, Ding, Dong
In excelsis e pluribus Unum


I pray the Star lights Bethleem
I pray the city lights don't burn you down
I pray the world one day unites
To live in harmony and join in the Sound


I pray for Peace in New Salem (Jerusalem)
I pray the Gods of War, don’t burn it down
I pray in Peace we all abide
And live in harmony and join in the Sound

I pray for joy throughout the year
I pray the sounds of joy don’t drown out the tears
I Pray in light we all abound
And sing in harmony and join in the Sound.


Translation of the (non-religious) latin phrases:

"In excelsis Ex Uno Pluria"= "In the Highest, from ONE, many"

"In excelsis e pluribus Unum"= "In the Highest, from many, ONE"


Are we doing Masonic (Illuminati) Social engineering??? lol

I hope so! Away with RELIGION!! In with "logical" (greek - "Logos") spirituality!! (not "Faith-based" spirituality which is just Religion in a different "coat").

J. Krishnamurti: "Faith leads invariably to violence!...When you seperate yourself by belief, by nationality, by tradition, it breeds violence."

Religious Agendas:

For those who don't know, the "e pluribus Unum" the "motto" of the USA, was on all the US money from it's creation (in 1776, making it the country with the longest lasting state "constitution" in existence today) until 1956 (the Nixon era) when the words "In God We Trust" was adopted as the motto and placed on some of the US money. The "religious right" was successful in excluding the "non relgious" phrase (e pluribus Unum) from some US Money but the US bills still have the Masonic All seeing Eye atop the pyramid.

The "SEPERATION of STATE and GOD" is also under attack in the USA, as in India (and elsewhere) where the "religious right" is trying to bring back the (fundamentalist) MANU laws that gave India the "caste" system with the "Brahmin" caste and their "sanskrit" language, at the top of the Pyramid...

Dainik Jagran 8th November 2003.

Ex-Minster and Ex-DIG tried to forcefully capture the RamChandra Mission Ashram.

Situation volatile, administrative and police officer’s camp in the ashram.


In order to capture the position of president vacated after dismissal of Umesh Chandra, international president of Ram Chandra Mission, and with intention to capture the property worth millions of rupee’s , ex- state education minister Amarjeet singh Jansevak, ex director general of police, Uma Shanker Bajpai, along with dozens of associates attempted to capture the mission property, which was successfully foiled by the state administration, in addition to dozens of other people, Uma Shanker Bajpai secretary of RamChandra mission Chennai, Mr. Krishna Tondon, Veenet Chandra, along with their associates, attacked the ashram, in the evening around 7:30 PM. Office superintendent of mission Mr. D. Krishna had previously expressed his concerns regarding bad intentions of above stated people, to the local administration.

Mr D. Krishna had already informed the district magistrate Shahjahanpur, Mr Ashok Kumar Verma, city magistrate Mr. J.K Dixit and supretendent of police Mr shushil Kr. Singh, regarding possibility of violent attack by these people, keeping in view the threat of Chennai group people, administration had already appointed the station officer in the mission. When ex-minister along with his associates were attempting to enter into the ashram, with intentions of capturing it, immediately police and administration officer’s got alarmed, ASP Rambahadur, city magistrate J.K dixit circle officer J.N Bhadauriya, and other administrative officer’s immediately reached the spot and prevented the situation from getting volatile.

Administrative officer’s asked prepetrators, who were trying to enter into the mission property with intention to capture it, regarding documentary proof’s that they are the owner’s of that property. Between, when ex minister tried to enter inside the ashram, for negotiation, the private security guard in the premises warned the attackers that they will start firing if anyone attempts to enter inside the ashram premises. Sensing the volatile situation, the administrative officer’s on the spot prevented ex-IPS officer and ex-minister and their associates from entering into the mission and requested them to produce documentary proof for the ownership of the property next morning.

Office in-charge D. Krishna said that death of president Umesh Chandra Saxsena, is part of the conspiracy hatched by these people only.

D. Krishna further said that news of death of Umesh Chandra saxsena reached their family member’s later and these people knew before hand that Umesh Chandra has expired, he stated that, Krishna tondon had called me and informed me that Umesh Chandra has expired, whereas I was unaware of it. A day before youngest son of Umesh got engaged in Barrali, and I was present there, next day I returned to Shahjahanpur and Umesh Chandra left for Noida, where he felt a bit uneasy, and hence went to hospital, and died there.
D. Krishna has further said, that Babuji’s death is also part of conspiracy hatched by Chennai group people only, as he also died of poisoning, he suspected that even Umesh Chandra death is also due to poisoning only.

Evolution of Sahaj Marg From Vedic And Yogic Practices

This is a critique of the article written in haste by Dr. K. S. Balasubramaniam to counter our "History of Sahaj Marg". There are too many "inaccuracies" in his article to leave unchallenged. What's next? Will SRCM (California) now claim that this article is "God Inspired" or like their book: "Whispers from the Brighter World" is also "channeled" by a MEDIUM and should now be blindly believed as the "TRUTH"?

THIS EMPEROR has no clothes, your "HONOUR"! (hoping there is at least the illusion of honour left in SRCM(California))

My comments are in red and italicized.

Evolution Of Sahaj Marg From Vedic And Yogic Practices
Dr. K. S. Balasubramaniam
Chennai
http://www.srcm.org/literature/articles/EvolutionSMFromYoga.jsp



India is the homeland of spirituality.

How arrogant! Another “chosen” or “favourite” of the ONE!! Another MASTER RACE!

According to most "spiritual practices", spirit has no “homeland” in the Material, not a country, not a mountain, not an ocean, not a race, not a gender. Spirit lives in, by and of the ONE or the ALL. SPIRIT is everywhere and everywhen. I guess there is not much respect in Sahaj Marg, for aboriginal spirituality or the spirituality of other cultures.

By that same "logic" (of lack of) one could say that the USA is the “homeland” of SOUL! But that would not make it TRUE!


Maybe that’s why Chari wants to come to the USA, beside the “numbers” and the “dollars”: to get some SOUL and true SPIRITUALITY (native), away from the corrupt SPIRITUALISM and the Sexism and Brahmin Nationalism of Sahaj Marg and India.

Or, how about this one! Paris is the City of LIGHT, but to find the LIGHT one has to have a "guide" and you must make the guide happy so he will find the LIGHT for you. One can make the guide happy by calling him "Master" and have him call you his "little serf". Then if you repeat twice-a-day, in the morning and in the evening that you are a "slave" (see Sahaj Marg prayer below) and agree to become a "living dead" (as mentioned in Sahaj Marg literature) for him and "remember him all day long ("constant remembrance") , he may show you the LIGHT!. But you must never call what you do a "ritual" even though it is, because he will then become "pouty" and never answer your pleas to show you the LIGHT.

Sound "silly" enough? Spirit and Light are similar, both do not only exist in "one city" or "country". And both are not found "solely" in one's heart. One can make the same "silly" claims for "knowledge". Where is the "homeland" of KNOWLEDGE? The Universe-city?

What's next? Will SRCM (California) try and get the Fundamentalist Religious SMRTI Manu laws and their "caste" system in the WEST as is now being re-attempted in India? Is their goal a THEOCRACY? With Chari as the Master of the UNIVERSE?

Sahaj Marg Prayer:
Oh, Master,
thou art the real goal of human life.
We are yet but slaves of wishes putting bar to our advancement.
Thou art the only God and Power to bring us up to that stage.


From pre-historic times, followed by the Vedic and epic periods, many saints, sages and seers have emerged in this holy land. They gave their heart and soul to their pursuit to reach human perfection, realisation of God or Self-realisation.

I was told by other religions the "holy land" was Jerusalem (New Salem), or Rome, Mecca, or many other home-"lands"? How about ALL the LAND is HOLY? Maybe they ("many saints, sages, seers") gave their "hearts and souls" but none have reached PERFECTION yet, as far as we know. And their Realization of the ONE is “debateable” and not easily accepted by MOST. Maybe they reached "Self-realization" (with a capital "S" to depict their EGO..notice the "he" (lower case "h") later, to depict the MALE - DIVINE). It seems that Sahaj Marg does not help the adherents "control" their "intellect" or their "emotions" very well. (see at SRCM (Shahjahanpur), the allegations, newspaper clippings and medical reports, (in Hindi) of the violent attacks on the Babuji Memorial Ashram, the SRCM Ashram of Umesh, the Founder's son)

After reaching their destination, they tried to train many of their fellow human beings, to uplift them from their sufferings in this world.

Oh! there is a "destination"? There is a "goal"? There is an "END". The "journey" is not the "thing" with the new Sahaj Marg "spirituality" of SRCM (California), as it is with most other "SPIRITUALITY"?

Train them ("their fellow human beings") as they might, the sufferings continued. And the destination was not reached by them or their disciples any more than by the rest of humanity, including the "atheists". ALL are in (the) ONE! All are on a WAVE and go up and down in emotions, suffering, etc. even the SAINTS, the SAGES, the SEERS. Some wise "men" have admitted that no one person can save all of MANKIND.

A truly "Natural Path" would try and be like NATURE, where the cedar tree does not try and make the fir tree become "living dead" or even a "clone" of a cedar so as to be "saved". That is "megalomania" and a "messianic complex". NOT SAINTLY! And not even POSSIBLE! So it is a "scam", a "con" worthy of a "televangelist".

Acceptance of The Natural UNIVERSE would be the NATURAL PATH, not the SRCM(California) or the businessmen's and the capitalist's approach of "dominion" over Nature. Then they attempt to "change it" or modify it as they have done to "the king of YOGA", the so-called "eightfold" path, to their small MIND. Raja Yoga is not an "octave" or "eightfold" path anymore in Sahaj Marg as the tapas and the Yamas have been "modified" to suit the "capitalist agenda of "accumulation" of the Material (structures) and POWER. It satisfies the EGO, and the MIND, not the SPIRIT. This has been done on the bones and the blood of the broken families of their followers, including the family of the Founder by "modifying" or 'adulterating" or "perverting" the teachings of "The MASTERS"

Check out photos of the Ashrams and see the "paving of Paradise" to serve the MASTER. There is PAVE and MARBLE (and Golden LIONS, the PREDATOR), everywhere. Then there are the busts and Pictures of the SRCM(California) Masters (Idols).
Now see what Chari's own Society, Chariji Education Development Society (CED) is giving to the "poor" at his Shri Guru Krupa School . This is to show the outside World.
Now the "PRIVATE" school for "upper class": Lalaji Memorial OMEGA School LMOS. (Why OMEGA? Is it the END?)

Less Marble and Golden Lions, Medical Services for those who can afford it, the rich and more "MONEY" for the Education and Medical services of the Real "POOR". Where is Chari now? Let me guess... with the POOR in DUBAI!!

P.S. Read this CED Site and see if there is a "teacher" in SRCM (California) who can "edit this site for grammar, syntax, and "teach by example" PLEASE...

What is NATURAL and SIMPLE about that Ashram? Oh yes! There is a manicured lawn and a few "birds". ONE could be at the VATICAN or at any other "religious Shrine", not at a "spiritual" and "Natural" and "SIMPLE" place. It seems to be a "hang-out" for the rich, and all the while, the poor suffer and die.

Oh yes! The Christians (Sister Theresa or "OTHERS") will take care of the Indian POOR! NOT!


We find evidences for this in the Vedas, the most ancient literature of this world, texts on Yoga and other schools of Indian philosophy.

To the Christians, the Bible is "the most ancient literature in this world". What about the Chinese writings? And does "old" mean "True"? NOT!! There is still no evidence of a PERFECT person (male or female) in the history of the species now called "homo sapiens", although many Religions (and cults) claim to have the PERFECT leader. Christians claim Jesus is the "son of GOD", and thanks to the tyranny of the Roman Emperor, Constantine, ONE (Yahweh or Elohim) became THREE or a TRINITY according to those Christians who accept and speak the "Nicene Creed". That does not make it the TRUTH.

As John, the disciple of Jesus of Nazareth, called the Christ or Messiah or Saviour, in his John 1 verse 12 states, if one "receives him", or believes in his message or in God,
"to them gave he power to become the sons of God,". Then, a believer in God, is the "son (offspring) of God" as that is the only "logical" belief possible if one believes in God. One is either the CREATOR or the CREATED. All "representatives" of God suffered, and eventually, all died. Some apparently "resurrected". But that is a "belief, and to some, a fantasy, not a FACT. These teachings are still open to scrutiny and change.

Sahaj Marg, the modified system of Raja Yoga, stands on the foundation of these noble teachings of the scriptures, but like many other schools, it too has its own philosophy and unique practice

Sahaj Marg has “no philosophy” according to Chari, and is not a “unique” practice. (see History of Sahaj Marg and the Shri Ram Chandra Mission).

According to the Sufi, of which Lalaji was the "first Hindu Master", the practice of transmission in a "heart to heart" meditation was with the Sufi Religion for centuries and the Naqshbandiyya Order of which Lalaji is a Master, with it's Golden Chain, is now called "NaqshMuMRa" after him, and has a lineage to the Prophet Muhammed.

Although Babuji wrote a book on philosophy, Chari, who took Vaishnava traditional instruction in the Hindu religion, stated:

From a talk given by Shri Parthasarathi Rajagopalachari on New Year's Day, 2005 at Babuji Memorial Ashram, Manapakkam, INDIA

As you know, Babuji Maharaj spoke very little. He said, "If and when a guide has to speak, it should be only to teach us about what we have to do, how to do it, when to do it, where to do it, and of course, why to do it." There is no room for philosophy in speeches of Sahaj Marg. In fact, Sahaj Marg has no philosophy. It does not rest on any philosophy. It is neither advaita nor dvaita nor vishishta advaita.

http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/general-philosophy/1441-the-art-of-listening-to-nature.html


The word Veda comes from the Sanskrit root Vid, ‘to know’. It consists of passages in prose and poetry that are prior to any other literature of this world. The Vedic saints are called Rishis, which etymologically means, ‘those who have seen the mantras’(1) . This required the practice of penance, austerity, meditation, celibacy and so on.

The Vedas contain the highest knowledge, the transcendental knowledge that cannot be obtained by other means like perception through sense organs, inference, and reasoning. Hence the Vedas have been accepted as the authoritative source of knowledge by all orthodox schools of Indian Philosophy. Those who deny this authority to the Vedas have been classified as heterodox or atheist schools of philosophy. The Charvaka (materialists), Buddhism and Jainism come into the latter category.

The claims of "transcendental knowledge that cannot be obtained by other means" is what all religions claim. From the "grace" and the Mysteries of the Sacrements of the Christians, to the Bliss, Nirvana, Valhalla, Heaven, Brighter World, etc., all religions claim to be "unique" and the "only path". That does not make it so. Show me the PERSON who, having used one system, is more PERFECT than one of another Religion or system.

And the LURE of "TRY IT FOR SIX MONTHS" is not a true test, but a trap, a "come-on" or a "CON". Many of us who have tried Sahaj Marg, some of us, for up to 20 years and were preceptors, and "inner circle" members, are now LEAVING and exposing it. At the same time, the BUSINESSMEN who reached the "top of the SRCM (California) Pyramid" try and LURE the "next wave" of numbers, into their MATERIAL Pyramidal and corrupt SYSTEM of a so-called "modified"(so not) Raja Yoga.


And Sahaj Marg, like all other “religions”, as Babuji claims Vivekananda called his “Sahaj Marga” (the “easy path” and a "new religion") , falsely claims to not “bad mouth” other religions. Read what Chari said of Christianity, Catholicism, Hinduism. See Chari's speech in Denmark and to Preceptors at his 2001 seminar. (We have copies of what they now try and hide as they seem "embarassed" by these words of Chari.

Then see what the SRCM (California) is teaching in their Value based Spiritual Education (VBSE) curriculum at their "PRIVATE Boarding School", the Lalaji Memorial OMEGA School (International) (LMOS) (Why OMEGA? Is it the END?) and their Sri GuruKrupa Vidya Nilayam.


It should also be pointed out here that even among the orthodox schools (2) Sankhya and Mimamsa do not accept the existence of God, but they accept the authority of the Vedas and hence they are considered as theists or orthodox. The Yoga school of philosophy founded by Patanjali, whose period is fixed by modern scholars as 150 BC, accepts both the Vedas and the existence of God. Sahaj Marg, it may be pointed out, also holds the same view as that of Patanjali. It closely follows the principles enunciated in the Vedas and in Patanjali’s Yoga system.

Sahaj Marg does not follow nor resemble Patanjali’s Yoga system, nor Vivekananda’s. In Vivekananda's philosophy, the "prayer" used by Sahaj Marg would be called: "silly" by Vivekananda who says that to repeat the condition we don't want every day will not get rid of it. To repeat that I am a "slave of my desires" daily will not FREE ME from being a slave but will keep me a slave. What it will create is a new slavery, a dependency on the Master, the Mission, the Method, that Unholy TRINITY, not to mention the front line, or the "preceptor". Is the Master of Sahaj Marg also repeating this "prayer"?

To not adhere to the 'Indian" or Sahaj Marg concepts of the Divine or spirituality (or spiritualism) does not make one an "ATHEIST". It could make one a different kind of "Theist" or a "Deist".
For instance, I (as Vivekananda) like and use the concept of calling the DIVINE by the NUMBER ONE (not the name "(the) ONE"), rather than using the "Germanic or Gothic" word: GOD which is and was often used in the PLURAL to define great MEN. Emperors of old were often called "GODS" and that did not mean: "ONE" or the Divine. With Sahaj Marg, there is the Division of those "in" Sahaj Marg, the "saved", and those "outside" Sahaj Marg. That is not UNITY!! but TWO or DUALITY!! Sahaj Marg, like all relgions, DIVIDES! Chari's contradictory statements create "arguments" in the families where one member is not "IN". It sometimes results in the one who is "in" (usually the female) leaving their mate, rather than changing their path, if they have already become "dependent" and addicted to the "co-dependent" group dynamics.


Yoga is generally classified into two main divisions viz., Raja Yoga and Hatha Yoga, though later on many other branches of Yoga came into vogue. Hatha Yoga mainly deals with practices that help one to keep his physical body hale and healthy, by means of exercises such as postures (asanas), breathing techniques (pranayama) and so on. Raja Yoga, on the other hand, mainly deals with the mind. It endeavours to restrain the tendencies of the mind from going out, (like the reins of a horse) and brings the mind to a state of perfect calmness, equilibrium or balance. Patanjali’s Yoga belongs to this category. Sahaj Marg also follows the same principle. The practice of Sahaj Marg meditation regulates the mind and strengthens the will power.

Sahaj Marg creates a dependency on the Master, and weakens the mind and the “will power” of the disciples. It strenghtens the Master, the Method, the Mission (the structure) not the PRACTITIONNER, which is the opposite of true YOGA. The disciples of Sahaj Marg that I know, neglect their families, their societies, their countries, their friends, pets, their environment, their duties, and sheepishly follow the Master around the world like a fan following an "IDOL". And the "carbon footprints" get larger for the sake of the GODs of DIVISIONS. That is not the system of RAJA YOGA which can be practiced anywhere and not as a "follower", nor is it SPIRITUALITY! Sahaj Marg is narcissistic navel gazing of "self involved", and co-dependent addicts to power trying to reach a "created" and selfish GOAL. It is not as lofty as the "LOVE the Neighbour" and certainly not as spiritual as the "love the enemy" of Christianity, nor is it as "society building" as many other "religions" and philosophies. It has shown itself to divide even at the organization level and now have too many schisms to keep track of. (See SRCM Shahjahanpur, the original society controlled by the family of the Founder, Babuji).

The precepts and practice as advocated by the masters of Sahaj Marg are not contradictory to those given in the Vedas or ancient Yogic texts. Some examples are given below to prove this point.

A "precept" is "A doctrine that is taught" according to Webster. That contradicts the statement that there are no "dogmas" or rituals in Sahaj Marg. "PRE" means "before". There are "PRECEPTS" to learn before "becoming" a true disciple. That is what creates the IN and the OUT of most religions. One either "believes" the doctrine or leaves, thus creating a "DIVISION".

Dependency on the Master, the "preceptor" (the "pimp" of the doctrine), the Mission, the Method is “RELIGION” and “assertions of being a “slave to one’s desires” is called “silly” by Vivekananda. Sahaj Marg's disciples attempt to become like the “LIVING DEAD in the hands of a "funeral director", according to Sahaj Marg "precepts", and they become reliant on messages from the DEAD, channeled by an “anonymous” medium (a French lady) for their “knowledge” and “advice”.

NOT RAJA YOGA, nor SPIRITUALITY, nor the teachings of LALAJI or Sufism, but SPIRITUALISM and CHARI. That "spiritualism" has been called the "densing of the population" by the Dalits of Southern India who have witnessed this tactic by the "brahmins" (the priest or upper caste) before.


I. Practice :

Sahaj Marg emphasises that one should do one’s practice regularly. Patanjali also opines the same, when he says (3) ,

“Practice should be done for a longtime, without interruption and with dedication and then it gets established in a person”.

To quote Patanjali, Vivekananda, Christ, Buddha, so as to appear credible, only fools the “gullible” and the “naïve”, not the thinkers and the "intellectuals". The Masters of Sahaj Marg do not exhibit an “elevated” sense of morality, ethic, or honesty which true "spirituality" would create. This article confirms that the same deceptive and “made up” or “invented” confidence game (con game) seems to be transmitted to the “followers” who then weave their “fantasy” to the masses and actually seem to "believe it". The followers seem to believe in a “Machievellian” approach to opportunistic morality or, in other words, “immorality” to reach the GREAT MORALITY. To tell a lie over and over does not make it the TRUTH. It still remains a LIE!

Sahaj Marg says that meditation means ‘to think of an object continuously’. Patanjali endorses this view in his Yoga Sutra(4). He gives importance to the moral and ethical values to be followed by all without any exception. He calls them Yama and Niyama each of which contains five principles. Sahaj Marg also emphasises the same, through its ‘Ten Maxims’.

The modification of Sahaj Marg to accept “donations” is contrary to Raja Yoga. To accumulate Material in the name of spirituality is RELIGION not "Spirituality" (relating to Spirit, not Material) . The traditional Churches attempt to deal with this by endorsing: "detachment" from the accumulated material, but we know what that means. The "detachee" still wants to control the "detached" MATERIAL and commit "immoralities" and "ethical" sins to get "control" of the "detached" MATERIAL. Our “aboriginal” and other un-organized spirituality are much more “spiritual” than that.

These austerities (tapas), penance, celibacy and specially the “non-acceptance of donations” (yamas) accepted but not practiced by the Sahaj Marg Masters of the SRCMtm, is not in accordance with the Raja Yoga of Patanjali or Vivekananda, and the repeating in the Sahaj Marg prayer of being “slaves to one’s desires” is not in agreement with Ramakrisna (and Vivekananda) who called this practice of repeating what one does not desire: “silly”.

http://www.ramakrishnavivekananda.info/vivekananda/volume_1/vol_1_frame.htm


Sahaj Marg prescribes ‘meditation on the divine light in the heart’. The Upanishads, which form the end, and the most important part of the Vedas, also opine the same. The Katha Upanishad (4.13) (belonging to the Yajur Veda) says: “The Self, the lord of the past and the future, is like a light without smoke; he is verily the same today and tomorrow”.

The word "lord" has been abused and overused...It means "LORD CONRAD BLACK" or other such "Masculine old farts" to me and not a lofty or respectful name for the SELF if the author means MY-SELF or the ONE-SELF, or if he means the ONE or the ALL. Either way, "he" (without capital) is not "a male" but is: I AM THAT I AM... "THAT" denotes a THING or a PRINCIPLE, not a PERSON, so no GENDER. Vivekananda and Plato would call IT: ONE, not LORD or GOD, or SELF!

Most religions call the HEART the seat of the SOUL but that is not a “truth”. Just a story, an allegory, to state that the life-giving and/or the “oxygen carrier”, the blood, must pass through the HEART to be pumped to the whole body.
To focus on the heart, the seat of “emotions”, also according to some, is thought to “impart” mental energy to all the blood as it passes through the heart. The heart is a PUMP and is used as a METAPHOR for the seat of the soul and the emotions. Without "oxygen" the body gets "emotional" and not very "intellectual". Focussing "mental" or supposedly "spiritual" energy on the heart does not give it more "oxygen", but the focus could make one more aware of the functionality of the PUMP and thus is "desireable" as a practice. The mystical premises used by "religions", to acquire POWER over the masses, are as yet unproven. To follow "charismatics" or "IDOLS" (music, cinema, stage, sports, televangelists) does not prove the "magnetism" of Individuals, they simply attest to the gullibility of the Masses and the power of words when manipulated with an hidden (mystical) intent. Put a "code" in a document and a code comes out. What comes out is NOT a Divine message, from the ONE (God), as the "Bible code" proponents claim. Abhyasis are now beginning to see the Master's image on wall, clouds, food, etc... Sound familiar?

The Mundaka Upanishad (III.1.5.) (Belonging to the Atharva Veda) says: “When the impurities dwindle, the ascetics or the self-controlled, behold Him – stainless, resplendent within the body”.

The Mahanarayana Upanishad (II.7) (of the Yajur Veda) says : ‘we meditate upon Him, the limitless, the changeless, the seer, the end aim of the ocean of existence, the source of all Bliss in the heart, which is like a lotus bud”.

The Svetasvatara Upanishad (4.17) (also of the Yajur Veda) says: “the divinity who created the universe and who pervades everything always dwells in the hearts of the creatures. Those realize him become immortal”.

LIFE does not become “IMMORTAL" . LIFE is IMMORTAL. We do not gain “immortality” by practicing Sahaj Marg, Christianity, Hinduism or any other belief SYSTEM. We either are “immortal” or we are not. We can’t earn something from the UNIVERSE by “BRIBING” (the) ONE with such silly practices as “TWO on A HEART” (emotional rush) or TWO on a MIND (hypnosis). ONE is not SILLY! ALL can be "silly" or WISE by choice.

Lord Krishna says in the Bhagavad Gita (18.61), “the lord is seated in the hearts of all the beings”.

Another "LORD"...A Metaphor. The "lord"(small case for the ONE GREAT SPIRIT? Is that a "freudian" EGO slip?) is not seated anywhere. How arrogant to give attributes to the ONE and then how arrogant for others to REPEAT IT. IT, the ONE, is not a PERSON with a "BUM" who has to sit and "REST" just like NATURE, the SUN, the stars.

Sahaj Marg is not very "NATURAL" with such FANTASIES and METAPHORS. I guess that means that the "lord" is not in my hand, my foot, etc.... So there is a "space" outside the ONE, where the ONE is not as "he" (male, small case) is "sitting in the heart of all the beings". Not very "smart" or "accurate". Just a fantasy used to mystify the "sheep" and a bad one at that.


There are also many other passages in the Vedas which recommend meditation on the ‘light in the heart’, which is being followed by the practitioners of Sahaj Marg system of Raja Yoga.

The “light” could be due to the PUMP action (friction) of the heart, also creating "heat" along with the other such "friction" that gives our body a 98.6 degree of heat. It also creates a “SOUND” or "Shabda", also used by Lalaji and such "wise" men as Kirpal Singh and others from other paths, cultures and traditions.

Raja Yoga means the King among Yoga systems. The mind is said to be the king of all the sense organs and, since this Yogic practice mainly deals with the mind, it is called Raja Yoga. Gorakshanatha, a well-known Yoga master of 9th -10th cent, A.D. also asserts the same(5). But the ancient schools of Yoga prescribe many difficult practices, which are impossible to be adopted in modern times. Also some practices like breathing techniques, though beneficial if practiced correctly under the guidance of an adept in Yoga, would produce unwanted diseases if done wrongly.

One gets ill if one practices “Sahaj Marg” wrongly also. Read Babuji’s experiences of depression and long periods of what could be called "delusions" in his “autobiography” . He warned "preceptors" of “injuring” the heart of abhyasis, by doing the practice of "transmission" too long or not correctly. His state of mind in his autobiography could be “psychoanalyzed” by a professional as “paranoid” and “delusional”.

The most popular text on Hatha Yoga, Hatha Yoga Pradipika of Svatmarama (12-15 cent A, D.) caution the practitioners in this regard(6) . Hence, a simplified system of Raja Yoga is the need of the hour.

The method known as Sahaj Marg which is practiced in Shri Ram Chandra Mission. It is a simple, subtle, safe and sure method which takes the aspirant towards human perfection in the shortest possible duration.

I'm from Missouri! Show us the “PERFECT” one in Sahaj Marg (California) who has reached the delusional “GOAL” as if there is an END. Whatever happened to "the journey" not the "goal" of LIFE. No ETERNITY (no beginning, no end) in Sahaj Marg obviously. And in the end, All the Abhyasis go to the “Brighter World” which is very much like the “HEAVEN” of the Christians and of other religions. NOT YOGA. Not a system but a doctrine and a fantasy for the masses.

How long is "shortest possible duration"? That's like the politician saying: "I will spare no resources to do all I can to address the situation to the best of my ability." It means "NOTHING". Time is not a factor in the Creation of the ONE, MOTION is. Time is what man (not the spiritual ones) uses to measure MOTION. Motion does not have a goal. The UNIVERSE moves so as to be Manifest or CREATED. ALL is in MOTION. TIME is a "measuring tape", not a reality!


The greatest advantage in this path is that, the guru or the Master or the guide, whatever one may call him, takes the responsibility of transforming an individual into a perfect human being without much effort on the part of the practitioner. This is made possible through the unique method adopted by the Master, which is termed ‘Pranahuti’ in Sahaj Marg. Pranahuti means ‘offering one’s life energy’. The Master, offers his own life-energy, directs it to the hearts of the disciple through his will power, and awakens the Soul which lies dormant in the heart of the seeker. The seeker has just to receive it in his heart, which he can feel once he turns his attention inwardly. The Pranahuti is defined as “The utilization of the divine energy for the transformation of man”. Sahaj Marg does not bar any one from experiencing this divine energy. Any one without any barrier of colour, caste, creed, sex, religion, nationality etc., can derive the benefit of the Master’s services, without paying anything in return!

Nature does not do it that way. The cedar tree does not rely on the fir tree to "SAVE IT" by it's "will power". To claim Sahaj Marg to be “the Natural Path” would mean that all would take their own responsibility for their life and death. To claim that the MASTER erases “samskaras” like the Priest forgives sins and ALL and only the BELIEVERS, no matter how "sinful", go to HEAVEN or the “BRIGHTER WORLD” is not the NATURAL PATH and is not even "JUST".

And then Chari claims that “homosexuality” is “not NATURAL" although there are over 450 (and counting) species of animals who practice homosexuality in one form and one reason or another. If Chari is accurate, then animals are not "natural". Anyone who has raised rabbits know the truth of that statement.

SAHAJ MARG is not NATURAL…and is not a NATURAL PATH but could be called as Vivekananda said to Babuji in his “autobiography”, the “easy path” and a path that is a loop and that goes “nowhere”. In other words, in Sahaj Marg with it's theological and philosophical contradictions and "childish games of circular Logic" (such as "powerless power" or "invertendo"), the wisened old abhyasis finally leave and new ones are lured in, to remain until they learn that they are in a "loop" that leads to NOWHERE . Groups like Sahaj Marg, in the hands of businessmen and nationalists, makes IDOLS or MASTERS of a few foreign businessmen who are in REALITY, invading new "markets" so as to grow their "business". All evangelical religions operated as businesses by businessmen and, driven by "numbers" do the same. Numbers are the GOAL. Religions, as organized "SPIRITUALITY" offer "tax-exempt" status and covers all "expenses" of the IDOL and his (usually male) "entourage". But they (the organizers, the lions) will claim to not take any rewards for their efforts. Yeah right!! We know the "non-profit" model and how it works or does not work in some cases where its internal democracy falls under the control of the "obedience" of religions or cults. ALL EXPENSES PAID!!


Now, naturally a question arises whether this is true or just a fancy. Is there any such reference in early texts on Yoga where such phenomenon was available in ancient times(7) ? The answer is ‘Yes’. We do have many such references in ancient texts where the Yogic energy or the divine energy was transmitted by the teacher to the disciple, resulting in the transformation of the latter. We shall see just a few of them here.

The Sahaj Marg method was usurped from Lalaji's SUFISM of which he was the first Hindu Master. It's "uniqueness" is a story made up by Babuji to make it sound new and “original ” to the “hindu” so as not to offend the “nationalists” of his time, including his own family. That would make Sahaj Marg a branch of SUFISM (Naqshbandiyya) and of ISLAM. Read the Autobiography of Ram Chandra and see his account of Muhammed coming to Babuji in his dreams, along with Vivekananda and Christ, and many others. I have the same thing in my dreams also. Does that mean I am the "successor" of Christ or Vivekananda or Babuji? Am I PERFECT?

Dr. RK Gupta’s site “Sufi Saints and Sufism” says:
The practice of “heart to heart” transmission is not “unique” to Sahaj Marg but as you mention later, has been practiced since at least the time of Patanjali (150 ACE), and is practiced by the Sufi’s of the Naqshbandiyya Order of which Lalaji was the first “non muslim” Master.
http://www.geocities.com/sufisaints/


The Yoga Vasishtha, ascribed to the legendary saint Valmiki (who wrote the Ramayana), contains reference of the great saint Vasishtha transforming his disciple lord Rama at once, using this method of transmission. Here three methods of Yogic transmission, viz., by touch, by sight and through words are mentioned(8) . The Sutasamhita, which forms part of Skandapurana, which is at least one thousand five hundreds years old, adds one more to the above list. It includes transmission through will power (or thought) and says that this is the subtlest and the highest method of transmission. It may be pointed here that Sahaj Marg adopts the same method.

Sahaj Marg has been modified and “made easy” for “mass consumption” and to "profiteer" from people's difficult path of LIFE and RESPONSIBILITY. It is not the same as Raja Yoga. That is a “nationalist” story made up, by those abhyasis who are not ‘receptive” and “tolerant” to the “OTHER RELIGIONS” that used “heart to heart” transmission for centuries. One is called Sufism, a branch of ISLAM.

In ancient and medieval Sufi systems, this technique of transmission from the heart was known as Tavajjhoh. It may also be noted that ancient Chinese Buddhism also contains references to such practices. The 9th -10th cent A.D. text on Kashmir Saivism also contains references to such method of Yogic transmission adopted by the Master in effecting spiritual evolution of the disciples.

Lord Krishna transmitted the divine energy to Arjuna on the battle field and made him an immortal hero, as can be seen from the great epic Mahabharata.

There are many other "immortal heroes" in all myths of the world. We don't believe in them "literally" anymore. We have "evolved" and we call them "metaphors", allgories, and other such names. To believe in the myths of the past means that we also repeat the "mistakes" of the past. We don't want the "wars" that have plagued us for Millenia. Is it not time to create a myth of PEACE rather than repeating our myths of WAR with GOD on our side.

And ‘who won the war” is the question asked in the “Value Based Spiritual Education” curriculum that is taught by Sahaj Marg of Chari to children. Along with (the) ONE being Male, and Women can’t be MASTERS, Sahaj Marg is intolerant of other RELIGIONS and claims that other religions DIVIDE, lead to war, and violence while SAHAJ MARG is divide from the family of the founder, not Lalaji, who has his own “organization” but Babuji, and the SRCM (Shahjahanpur).


In recent times, 19th cent, A.D. the great Master of Bengal, Swami Ramakrishna Paramahamsa transformed his disciple, Narendranath into a Yogi of immortal fame viz., Swami Vivekananda, through the method of transmission of divine energy, Such is the efficiency of this method. The tradition has continued from generation to generation for thousands of years.

Read Vivekananda and the “autobiography of Ram Chandra” to see what Babuji says of this “NEW RELIGION” as Vivekananda is said to call the “SAHAJ MARGA”, the “easy path”. Lalji had 212 disciples and 9 preceptors. Not a large following. He also did not teach SAHAJ Marg but adapted his teachings to suit the disciple, including the use of mantras, and meditation on family members.

Lalaji is not the first GURU of Sahaj Marg but has his own “organization” Ramashram. Babuji, who met Lalaji a few times, claims his succession to Lalaji, from a ‘dream” thirteen years after Lalaji’s death. Babuji never attended or became a member of Lalaji’s organization (Dr Chatterbuy) and was never a “preceptor” of Lalaji.


In the 19th cent. A.D. the great saint Shri Ram Chandraji Maharaj of Fategarh (U.P.) (1873-1931) affectionately called Lalaji by his disciples, made this process available to all human kind in great numbers. He is rightly called as the first guru of the Sahaj Marg system and it is in his name that Shri Ram Chandra Mission was established in 1945 A.D., by his dearest disciple and successor, who also bore the same name (i.e. Shri Ram Chandraji). This illustrious personality was born in 1899 in Shahjahanpur (U.P.) in India. He established this Mission in remembrance of his Master and travelled to many parts of India and abroad to offer spiritual service to all human beings without expecting anything in return. Such was his devotion to his Master that he continued to serve everyone without any distinction, till his last moment in this mortal world, which he left in 1983. His followers affectionately called him Babuji.

Babuji’s most devoted disciple and successor Shri Parthasarathi Rajagopalachari, affectionately known as Chariji, was born in 1927 near Chennai in South India. He was mainly instrumental in spreading the noble teachings of the earlier Masters in more than 80 countries, spread over all the continents of this world (9).

Read the allegations and the documents of Babuji’s Family (Umesh, son and Navneet, grandson). The matter is now in Supreme Court of India.

All the Masters lead a simple life, true to the term Sahaj Marg, which literally means ‘The natural path’. There are no religious dogmas, rigorous rituals, preaching of sermons and so on in this method. It is simple, subtle and any one who has the willingness to transform himself into a perfect human being can experience its efficacy.

This is just not true. Sahaj Marg "elite" enjoy the simple life of "castles", 28 acre Ranch retreats in Texas called "SPURS", (the "instrument of pain used by "rodeo cowboys" to make the animals "buck" to entertain the crowds), and Marble Ashrams with "GOLDEN LIONS) at the gates.

There are many rituals, precepts and sermons, preachings, and dogmas. If one does not believe in the MASTER representing the DIVINE, one has to leave and according to Chari, never to be let in again, as he does with his “servants”. That is not RAJA YOGA or a SYSTEM but a RELIGION or a CULT. The unfortunate thing is that the abhyasis are becoming Materialists where some that I know were "spiritual", environmentalists, into the alternate therapies, before Sahaj Marg. Some are using the Group as a place to "advertise" their money-making products and therapies. This one (water purifier) is sold by the "mate" of the preceptor in charge of the Denmark Ashram at Sande Castle. Some of those products and therapies are "questionable"

Sahaj Marg does not condemn any religion but goes beyond the religious precepts and unites all the people. It is said that ‘religion divides people but spirituality unites people’.

READ Chari’ s speech in Denmark and this speech to preceptors in Jan. 2001. Statements like “hinduism is corrupt” and “bribes God” are not “endorsations” of religions or “tolerant” of religions but is a "condemnation" of other religions. That Catholic priest can’t “forgive sins” while Chari can erase “samskaras” as is his claim, is just a ploy to steal the “sheep” of the other religions so as to "grow the business”.

This is what SRCM (California) teaches the children in their Value Based Spiritual Education) VBSE (see complete Class IX and X at "LMOS & VBSE") curriculum at their Lalaji Memorial Omega (boarding or residential) School (why OMEGA? Is it the END?) This is a "condemnation". This should disqualify SRCM (California) from membership in UN DPI program.

Another notable point in Sahaj Marg is that it offers the same practice to all the people without any reservation.

It’s called “a turn over” philosophy. Throw the net wide and grab everyone with "introductory meetings or seminars" and even if they leave as they learn of the “corruption”, the lies and the dishonesty, that resides at the foundation of Sahaj Marg and its “organization” and wich is then transmitted to the “followers” and hence in some cases, destroys their relationships and lives, then the next wave are “caught” by the same “commercials" and by the now “NEW structures” or Ashrams that attract the “CURIOUS” and also holds them for a while. The financing of the structures is paid by the next wave. It's just "BUSINESS" and "grow the BUSINESS".

With the INTERNET, WE HOPE FOR A MORE ENLIGHTENED MASS in the future. In Sahaj Marg, the followers are told not to read these blogs and other INFORMATION. That is the DEMOCRACY of SAHAJ Marg as they claim to be “DEMOCRATIC” so as to belong to the UN DPI program. Another “DISHONESTY”. Sahaj Marg is a Theocracy that hides in the halls of our DEMOCRACY. Chari is PRESIDENT FOR LIFE. Women can't be Masters! Homosexuals are "un-natural".

IS THAT the UN mandate? Is that the UN DPI criteria? The Jehova's Witnesses voluntarily withdrew from the UN DPI because of these "criteria". Will SAHAJ MARG do the same or CHANGE and become GOOD SPIRITUAL CITIZENS and adhere to the criteria of the GROUP that gives them CREDIBILITY?



It may also be noted that the women get the same equal status as men in this system, unlike the ancient spiritual systems.

According to Chari at a speech at Satkol airport, and in an e-mail to me, WOMEN can’t be MASTERS because they are not capable of the “Destruction” necessary to be a Master of Sahaj Marg. When asked to clarify the “destruction” part, he said that it was on a “COSMIC” scale…

Chari the MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE, is then destroying part of the COSMOS. We pray there is no LIFE of any form, in that area of the COSMOS where Chari DESTROYS!!
Would this not be considered “MEGALOMANIACAL”? Is this not a disease? Or a CON?

Yet another unique aspect of Sahaj Marg is that it does not recommend any one to renounce the family life, as advocated by many schools of Indian philosophy where the life of the renunciate or mendicant is a must for spiritual pursuit, as is the case in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. On the other hand, Sahaj Marg says that one should neglect neither the worldly life nor the spiritual life. In fact it says that ‘the material life and the spiritual life should go hand in hand, like two wings of a bird, equally glittering.’

There are enough blogs out there now that state that Sahaj Marg divides families and destroys the relationships of the GOOD PEOPLE of this world who's partner or family member becomes ensnared in this group. Chari’s “arranged marriages” are a disaster. Allegations of poisoning, forgery by the family of the founder, seperations, prison, and ‘death” of the husbands are evident and there are court records to prove that these statements are factual. The accusation and allegations are not only by the family of the founder but also in the newpapers in India and in North America, and Europe.

The Pranahuti, the unique flow of transmission from the Master to the millions of aspirants, plays an important role in the evolution of man into a perfect human being. It checks the mental tendency from going astray and helps one to regulate his mind, and thereby his senses and activities, thus bringing him into a state of perfect balance and moderation. This is one of the definitions of the term Yoga, given by the lord in the Bhagavad-Gita (II.48).

Show us a perfect SAHAJ MARG person…One who reached the GOAL and is now a SAINT and does not need Chari any more. And don’t say: Sister Kasturi! We all know about her, the ONLY SAINT IN SAHAJ MARG according to Babuji. Is she part of Chari’s “entourage” now or is the “bribe” not high enough yet. Maybe Chari will offer to “marry her off” (as he does with others) or offer her a job with HTC, the management company of SRCM (California) who's directors are "preceptors" and who offers jobs to abhyasis, such as Lallji's grandson's family members. Weddings and Jobs are the tools of this Group. They even want the abhyasis to "inter-marry" so as to have a new crop of children "born into" Sahaj Marg. According to Chari, there are a "bunch of souls" ready to "incarnate" into the "inter-married" abhyasis.

Is this fantasy, Religion or SPIRITUALITY...Sounds like every other CULT to me.

It can be seen from the above brief discussion that Sahaj Marg is a modified system of Raja Yoga, built firmly on the noble principles enunciated in ancient scriptures. It is to be noted that the base or foundation, without any structure built over it, is useless. Also no structure without any firm foundation will last long. Both should be equally strong for giving shelter and peace to people who live within it. This world is the home built with love and sacrifice by the great Masters, where we all live. May this world ever remain an abode of peace and love.

Sahaj Marg is a corrupt or “adulterated” Raja Yoga and is not holding to any “principles” exempt “NUMBERS”…at all and any costs. It’s the toy of the CAPITALISTS, the INDUSTRIALISTS, the NATIONALISTS. Not SPIRITUALITY but SPIRITUALISM. According to Chari: Peace and POWER can't co-exist...so the wish of PEACE and LOVE coming from a CLONE of CHARI does not hold much WATER. Chari chose POWER, not PEACE.

In our family, there is no PEACE but many POWER GAMES as transmitted by CHARI (the mill manager) and his PRECEPTORS who's families are also "broken". They Transmit who they are and infect others with their diseases of DIVISIONS and POWER games. The NUMBERS prove them RIGHT and they will defend the political "RIGHT" with their "indivudual" rights not the LEFT with its COLLECTIVE or "societal" rights to PEACE and LOVE and HARMONY, not DIVISIONS... even the family of the Founder is WEEPING!

AMEN (So be it) to you too...

A lie told over and over is still a LIE!

Amen

c.f. I.128. This text is certainly prior to 12th Cent. A.D. and consists of more than 28,000 verses in Sanskrit.

This is technically known as Saktipata. In early and later Tamil texts on Saivism, this was called Saktinipatam

In 2005, Chariji has nominated Mr. Ajay Kumar Bhatter of Kolkotta, as his successor, thus ensuring the continuity of the lineage of the Masters.

There is no "lineage" of Masters in SRCM. Deception and delusion is the name of the game and if the pattern holds true, the next Master of Sahaj Marg, will also cause schisms and more "divisions" as only true RELIGIONS can create. The best we can hope for is that RELIGIONS will give way to ALL taking responsibility for their own "SALVATION" and "LIBERATION", and not rely on PROXIES for the ONE: the GODMEN of OLD . We now can take away their "tax exemtp" status and leave them function as the "businesses" that they are: Entertainement or "opiate" pushers for the masses. We can then deal with the "dependent" or "addictive" personalities which are attracted to those "pyramidal" systems either as Masters, Master wanabees, or as the "SERFS" (the true POWER in that PYRAMID). It can be "de-mystified" and the fear mechanism removed under the mandate of the UN and newly introduces "bills of responsibility" that address the use and abuse of "religious fear" (of Hell, Demons, or being alone) as INTELLECTUAL TERRORISM.

VBSE at LMOS of SRCM(California)

VBSE= Value Based Spiritual Education, created by Chari's SMRTI (Sahaj Marg Research and Teaching Institute), which is an altered SMRI created by Dr. KC Varadachari, friend of Babuji, professor in Philosophy and "Guru-in-Waiting" before the "take-over" of SRCM by Chari and the businessmen (Brahmins). You will notice that "Teaching" has been added.

SMRTI has other significance in Hinduism and one can research and find Manu SMRTI for instance which represents the "right wing" Manu laws and codes that the religious fundamentalists are attempting to pass in the Indian Legislature.

LMOS= Lalaji Memorial OMEGA (International) School..Why OMEGA? Is it the END? LMOS is now a "Relgious boarding School", operated by the BROTHERS AND SISTERS of SRCM (California). In Googling LMOS one finds: Living Modified OrganismS. Is that the "hidden" meaning behind OMEGA? Is SRCM (California) in their "cunningness" now practicing "spiritual cloning"? Now they have added the "international" to attract children from the WEST.

SRCM (California) = Shri Ram Chandra Mission, headquartered in Chennai, India, registered in California in 1997 after an un-successful attempt by Chari (and his father) to become the President and "spiritual represenative" of Babuji's SRCM, headquarterd in Shahjahanpur and registered in India in 1945. See Babuji' s Family site at: SRCM (Shahjahanpur)


Here is what your children will be taught by the "Brothers and Sisters" with the VBSE of the SRCM (California) at their Religious Boarding School, the LMOS (or LMOIS). Why OMEGA? Is it the END?

There are five very important reasons, why we should get away from religious bondage –

a. It creates division among people.
b. Every religion talks of "one God" but states that only their God is the best.
c. It promotes disharmony, violence and wars. (my highlight in red-see below for allegations by Founder's (Babuji) family)
d. The real meaning of the tenets is forgotten and only the rituals are adhered to.
e. Religions put fear and temptations into the hearts of the people. (my highlight in red-see below for example of "FEAR" tactic by Chari

All religions in the world say the same thing i.e. "seek within". But do they? The answer is NO. Then what is the way? Transcend religion and move towards spirituality.

...Love of God, to become one with Him.

(my highlight...4d-don says: Notice that "They" attribute the Masculine to the DIVINE)


...Religion enforces an externalization of the mind in man’s search for God. Religion requires belief and faith. Religion speaks of seeing God, speaking with God, hearing God’s voice etc.

That is exactly what the evidence shows SRCM (Chennai) is doing. "Methinks they doth protest too much" is an appropriate line by Shakespeare.


If these VBSE teachings don't bring Tolerance and UNITY (sarcasm...they won't) between the RELIGIONS of the World as should be expected of the SRCM (California) because of the UN DPI Program criteria for membership, then the saying of the Founder, Babuji: "Spirituality Unites, Religion Divides" should do it. NOT!!


Then, one can read in their fund-raising book: "Whispers from the Brighter World", for sale for a "donation" of a mere $250.00 US, that the anonymous author, a French Medium (female) can speak to four deceased spirits and even bring messages from the past Master and Founder (which apparently Chari can't) while the fate of the SRCM is in Supreme Court of India and there are allegations of forgery and violence by the family of the Founder. In Sahaj Marg, one can speak to SPIRITS but not to the ONE GREAT SPIRIT. They call one (SRCM) spirituality( as opposed to spiritualism) and the other (all the others) RELIGION! The Master (Chari) can't speak directly to neither the Founder, the Master nor the ONE (what some call GOD). To do that, he needs a MEDIUM from France, this corrupt Western country.


This is what the UN at their DPI program accepts as members who apparently work for WORLD PEACE and Tolerance among the many RELIGIONS of the WORLD. These are the SPIRITUAL VALUES and the TOLERANCE taught at LMOS (or LMOIS) that is to UNITE the WORLD....NO doubt under Chari, the MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE...or as I have begun calling him, THE MASTER OF DISASTER!!

Notice but one example of the (not so subtle) "Fear Mechanism" at work in this speech by Chari: (notice the Material around these "materialists" and capitalists who spent their lives in the "BUSINESS" world and now, after retirement, claim to be the "SPIRITUAL" leaders? NOT!! An ability to "access" money, manipulate people and systems does not a Spirituality Master make.

Taken from Constant Remembrance, Sahaj Marg Education Series, p.147 -
(ir)Reverend Chariji

"For those who are well advanced and for those who are advancing rapidly, please remember that without Constant Remembrance your life is fraught with great risks, not because there are dangers outside, but the danger is here, you see, in the heart. It is better to be a non-spiritual materialist whose heart is full of rubbish, because he cannot take anymore. There is no vacuum in his heart; whereas for a spiritual advancing person, there is a potential risk in every exposure. Because if this vacuum connection can be broken even for a moment and disconnected and connected elsewhere –God help him!"


Another section of the VBSE Curriculum taught at LMOS (or LMOIS)

VBSE Curriculum - Class 9 CHAPTER II - WHO AM I ?

POWER PACKED PERSONALITY

….The following table suggests the common behavioural pattern projected and expected in our day-to-day life.

Mother.....Loving, caring and soft
Father......Authoritative and a strict disciplinarian
Son...........Naughty, negligent and easygoing
Daughter..Disciplined, systematic, well-behaved
Boss..........Egoistic, arrogant, rude
Servant.....Submissive, sincere and supportive

Therefore with the above mindset all of us are normal in our behaviour but not natural. Children, we find are so very natural and open in their behaviour, but we adults do not allow them to continue with that. We thrust all the norms of society on them and ensure that they adopt it. In due course the naturality of their behaviour is lost and normality of it sets in.
Eg. When a family shifts from one place to another, it is very well known that children make friends easily, while it takes a longer time for adults to get to know each other.

Reasons for not being natural

1. Fear of being rejected.
2. Feeling shy (shyness is another form of ego).
3. A superiority or inferiority complex.
4. Would like to maintain one’s privacy – do not want others to pry into their affairs.
5. Not willing to be open and let others know about their weakness or failings (fear of being judged).


Although SRCM claims that it is “society” or THEM who project these “expectations” on our kids, and who make our kids “un-natural” and that it is the Guru and Sahaj Marg who makes them Spiritual and Natural, see what Chari “Transmits” with his words to our young GIRLS….Does he ever notice and encourage the “nice and quiet girls” to not be “naughty and mischievous”? It is not “SOCIETY” who thinks that of our GIRLS but “OLD MEN” like him….


"You know, I am still young at heart. That’s why I wander around the world; I wink at girls, no? [Laughter] I believe they like it, too, at least the more mischievous, naughty ones! Don’t you? [Abhyasi: Yes.] Aha!"


http://www.srcm.org/literature/recent.speeches/060122_Malaysia.jsp

This (below) is what Chari “projects” on our young men and our young girls about his “superior” culture and our “perverse” western culture. Does this sound like Raja Yoga or some type of “fundamentalism”? And he thinks that “Scandinavia set the lead”? All is PURE in INDIA and the rest of the world is going to hell unless if SAHAJ MARG saves us. And they he arranges marriages with "his better Indian husbands and wives" without ever claiming responsibility for the "disasters" that he causes in their failed marriages and divided families (see ex-preceptor, Michael's account). Does that not sound like all other RELIGIONS who INVADE other countries and CULTURES? And he calls his speech RESPECT and RESTRAINT….Such ARROGANCE!!


From:


Reverence, Respect and Restraint
A talk given by Shri Parthasarathi Rajagopalachari at the Seminar in Vrads Sande, Denmark on 1st November, 2005

We are not always asking for money. Like you have to give your aged parents some money to run the household when you are earning yourself. They look after you when you are young, when you go to school, when you go to college, when you flirt with your first few girlfriends and boyfriends. It is the parents who pay for it. When you grow up and they are sixty, sixty-five, seventy, it is the duty of those same children to look after their parents. Unfortunately, in the Western culture this doesn’t exist, which is a shame. Shame on youth who are all seated before me, young, handsome, strong, virile, but with no care for the elder generation, no respect for them, and even less love. I say again very firmly that this is a shame that old people have to go to geriatric homes, die in isolation, lonely, unloved. I hope you all feel it when you are old. Because you may look beautiful today, handsome, no wrinkles on your face, everybody falling in love with you, bearded young men, all the girls after them. It looks nice. It feels nice. And that love is superb, wonderful. Love is a many splendoured thing. (There was a song in a movie.) This is not love. It is fascination. It is attraction. It is sex. It doesn’t last very long.

This morning as a joke, I said from my window that our cultures are there: you have your culture, I have my culture. In my culture, we marry and then love. In your culture, you love and then marry. I think because you love and marry there are so few really good marriages which are long-lasting, with real love, because once you have sex together, either you break away and say, “Damn it, one more girl, so what?” or you feel compelled to marry the girl because you have had sex with her, and then you hate her all your life. It’s not a good thing. Scandinavia set the lead, and I’m sure God has a special place in hell for Scandinavia. Yes, because this is a perversion of human values. It’s a perversion of putting the cart before the horse. And it’s a perversion because it corrupts marriage, it corrupts human relationships from young age to old age. So beware of your culture where you love and then marry. Get into the habit of marrying and then loving. Because after you marry if you have sex, there is now no more compulsion, you don’t feel obliged to marry her because you are already married to her. And it’s the men who are the biggest sinners, God help them.




In the VBSE that is taught at the LMOS (or LMOIS) of SRCM (California), the Chari or Chennai faction of SRCM, there is this passage:

Begin with recitation of the Mission prayer followed by five minutes of meditation. The meditation technique is not taught but the students are asked to sit quietly with their eyes closed.


This means that the "Brain-washing" or "cleaning" as they call it, begins at the "primary" level, in the first class with Prayer and MEDITATION that apparently they do not teach to anyone younger than 18 yrs old according to the "instructions" of the FOUNDER of the system. This will be done under the oral instructions of the "Brothers and the Sisters", the teachers who must be "obeyed" and "loved".
This is not at all like Babuji who did not target children with his "system", which has now become "obedience" to the Master, the Method and the MISSION. And this combination of "Obedience of the School" and the "LOVE of Religion" in the hands of "Brothers and Sisters" is a dangerous imbalance of power that gives a very "human" teacher an absolute power over the Child. In today's world, any imbalance has to be in favour of the CHILD and the parent, or the USERS, not the INSTITUTION. Other Religions (Christian) have learned that lesson at a very high spiritual, intellectual, emotional and legal cost to society at large and financially to their organizations.


Their goal is to spread the schools to Europe (Switzerland) and then North America.

The PRAYER:

O Master!
Thou art the real goal of human life;
We are yet but slaves of wishes putting bar to our advancement.
Thou art the only God and power to bring us up to that stage.

To Whom is the Mission Prayer Addressed and Why

Babuji himself has written that ultimately He (pointing upwards) is the real Master . . . and all the human Masters who come on this world, on this earth, are His representatives. If that is so, then why do we address the prayer, "Oh, Master" and not "Oh, God". Now today I am giving you the answer for that. Because God, it is a living God who is before you in the form of the Master ...this is an embodied flesh-and-blood divinity . . . who can understand our needs; who can understand our temperaments; who can sympathize with us, being human himself; who can accept our failings, perhaps having failed himself in some way . . .

In the same introduction to the VBSE, there is this phrase:


Conclude with prayer or quiet meditation.

This makes twice per class that the student will repeat the Sahaj Marg Prayer and this apparently in 100 schools that use this VBSE curriculum in India. That makes a lot of Students claiming to be "slaves to their desires". SRCM (California) will call this the NATURAL path and they will become "slaves" thanks to Sahaj Marg. This is contrary to Swami Vivikananda who apparently gave the instructions for creating the "new religion" call Sahaj marg (the "easy path") to Babuji on the "INSIDE" . He and his Master, Ramakrishna called "silly" to repeat over and over what we don't want.

And this is what they call: "SPIRITUAL VALUES"?

If that is not enough: Check out Chari's stance on and implementation of democracy, or the tolerance of Homosexuality, or the promotion of women's equality and rights, and check out the corporate structure of SRCM at the Sahaj Marg Project
Is SRCM (California) even a good "CORPORATE" citizen?

New Jersey Development for SRCM (Chennai)

Monroe zoning board considers mission plan
Shri Ram Chandra Mission eyes Monroe site
Friday, October 5, 2007 2:55 PM EDT
By Sean Ruppert, Staff


MONROE — The Zoning Board of Adjustment will consider a proposal by the Shri Ram Chandra Mission to turn four existing buildings on a parcel at the intersection of Wykoff Mills and Halsey Reed roads into a yoga and meditation center, Oct. 30.

The 3.3-acre property previously was home to a day-care center and office building. According to plans on file at the township Planning Department, a 3,230-square-foot building near the center of the plot would serve as living quarters for a caretaker of the property, while a 2,275-square-foot building next to it would serve as the meditation studio.

Two structures in the southeast corner would serve as a maintenance shed and a guesthouse. Also present on the property are a pond, wetlands in the northwestern corner, a stream and an in-ground pool.

Proposed improvements to the site deal mostly with parking. The plans call for three concrete parking lots to be built along an existing driveway that runs northeast to southwest and exits at both ends of the property. The parking areas would be built adjacent to the structures and would contain 49 spaces. The mission does not expect that any additional parking would be necessary, according to the plans.

Shri Ram Chandra will need a use variance, as the area is currently zoned only for residential housing. In addition, the group is seeking to widen its driveway at curb-line past the 15- to 30-foot limit with a width of 31 feet and 46 feet at either end, and build a parking lot on the south side of the meditation center closer then the 30-foot distance the ordinances require.
A nonprofit organization, the mission expects to host about 100 people twice a week, on Wednesday evenings and Sunday mornings, according to the plans.

The mission was originally supposed to appear before the zoners on Sept. 25, but postponed the meeting so it could meet with neighbors to address their concerns, said the group’s attorney.

”We want take the time and meet with the neighbors and see what they have to say,” said Walter Toto, the lawyer representing Shri Ram Chandra. “We want to make sure that we are good neighbors.”




SPURS Ranch now OPEN FOR BUSINESS

Spurs Ranch NOW OPEN FOR BUSINESS

Hi all...

It is strange that a so-called "SPIRITUAL GROUP", who promote a 'VEGETARIAN" diet would call their "RETREAT" by the name of an INSTRUMENT of PAIN for animals.

Spurs are sharp metal spinners worn by RODEO cowboys and/or "horse breakers", on their boots, to "stick into the flanks" of the animals (horses and bulls) so as to inflict pain and make them "buck" for the enjoyment of the MASSES and the PROFIT of the organizers. IS THERE A LESSON HERE? Is there a metaphor here?

IS the metaphor of the SPURS what SAHAJ MARG is doing to the ABHYASIS and their family? Making them buck for the ENJOYMENT and PROFIT of the ELITE?

Animal rights activists have been trying to get SPURS banned for years as "CRUELTY to ANIMALS"...

And who will go to the 28 acre SPURS RANCH for a RETREAT? NOT THE POOR!! It is not aimed at the POOR but at the WEALTHY who will then DONATE (tax write-offs) to a Charitable organization...

The travesty of CHARITY, MEDICAL SERVICES, and PRIVATE SCHOOLS for the WEALTHY that is SAHAJ MARG.

This is their PR for the THINKING abhyasis!!

AH! The Simple SPIRITUAL Life at SRCM

This is their PR.

SMSF-USA RETREAT CENTER UPDATE

Report by brother S. Krishna Sai, Austin, Texas, USA


Rev. Master had approved the idea for a Sahaj Marg Spirituality Foundation Retreat Center for the Americas earlier this year, on the auspicious day of Janmashtami (Lord Krishna’s birthday), during the Inaugural CREST course earlier this year.

It is with great joy and happiness we share that Rev. Master has approved the purchase of a 28-acre ranch property in Austin, Texas. The future home of SMSF-Americas Retreat Center will be located about 15 miles south of Austin. It presently has a primary 3 bedroom home (Master’s Cottage) and a 1 bedroom guest home (Caretaker / Director’s Cottage) with a work room which may be converted into a meditation hall. It is a working ranch with a lot of usable flat land, a creek and livestock corral type fencing around the entire perimeter of the property and a secondary fence around the house. It is located in the hub of Yoga/spiritual activity in Central Texas.

Rev. Master gave us the following guidance on the purpose of a retreat center during his talk on 9th August 2006: “… souls yearning for rest from glamour of this world, from the insistence on money-making, from the demands of power structures – lay all that behind us, and go there and relax, bring our souls to pristine purity and meditate, introspect, do some writing if you wish to do so …”


In Europe it's Castles, in America it' s "ranches"...and in the hub of "spiritual" Texas?? (a center of religious "immigration" destination with their "religions"??)

One will notice that the "SRCM (California) Abhyasis are not "souls yearning for rest" from the "duty of caring for others" but the need rest from: "....the glamour of this world and the insistence on money-making, from the demands of power structures..." SRCM (California) abhyasis are not the "sister Theresa's or the care-takers of the "poor" and "the sick", the "inner city youths, .... these "preachers to the world"....

WHO DONATES TO SRCM?? NOW YOU KNOW!!!

FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW!!

SPURS RANCH is a 28 acre ranch, just outside Austin, Texas...

Santosh Khanjee, in charge of "external and international affairs" for SRCM is a developer in the Austin area where he is PRESIDENT of LOTUS HOTELS, and has another development in Austin of one hotel and two restaurants.

Tourism to Austin is good for business for Santosh and he will PROMOTE it to the hilt.

What is good for God is good for Santosh... People have to eat and sleep somewhere...The poor abhyasis, they will eat rice and sleep on the floor or outside unless they PAY for inside accomodations and for better FOOD... and THEY WILL!!

SAHAJ MARG is just trying to SPUR you on!! lol Whine you sheep for the PLEASURE OF THE ELITE (Brahmin)!!

After that "commercial venture" will be the New Jersey development of SRCM (Chennai)... All to be paid by the Poor Abhyasis...unless the Wealthy supports them!! NOT!!
