I am feeling very much disheartened by the actions and untrue self seeking thoughts of some of the followers of Param Pujya Mahatma Ram Chandra ji maharaj ( popularly known as Lalaji shab) of Fatehgarh who took samadhi on 14 August 1931 at Fatehgarh and who was real Bhagirath to bring the spritual Ganga to earth.
To know him one has to read Vasiyatnama (included in Jeevancharitra available at Lucknow Samadhi) dictated by Pujyapad Lalaji shab on 23 Octuber 1930, wherein He has clearly instructed His son Mahatma Jagmohan Narayan ji to seek this spritual knowledge through kind blessings of his eldest cousin brother Paramsant Mahatma Brijmohan Lal ji (popularly known as Pitaji shab), who took samadhi on 17 Jan. 1955 at Mumbai (His samadhi is at Lucknow), who is right inheriter of this spiritual Ganga after his father Pujyapad Mahatma Ragubar Dayal ji (popularly known as Chachaji Maharaj), who attained samadhi on 7 June, 1947 at Kanpur, who was just similar to Paramsant Mahatma Ram Chandra ji maharaj as declared by Pujyapad Lalaji Maharaj at one of the Holy festival.It may also be noted here that Paramsant Mahatma Jagmohan Narayan ji remain a faithful and obidient follower of Paramsant Pitaji shab for his entire life and finally attained samadhi in 1944 at Fatehgarh. Further, after Paramsant Mahatma Brijmohan Lal ji, Param Pujniya Paramsant Mahatma Omkarnath ji (popularly known as Bhaiyaji / Papaji shab) has devoted his entire life (since Jan 1955 at the age of 21 till 20 May 2008 when He attained samadhi at Lucknow), for the upliftment of seekers of this Brahm Gyan as per the wishes of His Bujurgan, without creating any sanstha or society which is not allowed by Pujyapad Lalaji shab in anyway.
In view of above, I pray Almighty for giving sadbuddhi to all, who are diverting from the path shown by Pujyapad Lalaji shab.
May God bless all of us to remain faithful and obidient follower of our Sadgurudev Param pujya Papaji shab.

Succession Between Gurus
Some thoughts after reading the reviews of SP on the blog of Don (Comment to Article: Lalaji And His Many Successors)
There is much talk of Babuji's controversial succession, and Lalaji's is no less dramatic. Several of his disciples have created their own organizations, Ramashram Satsang. Lalaji himself was reluctant to appoint his successor, between his nephew Brijmohan Lal clearly recommended by Huzur Maharaj, and his own son, Jagmohan Narain, he seems to have preferred.
In short, we now have several currents, Ramashram Satsang from Lalaji's main disciples, the Sufi NaqshMuMRa lineage of the descendants of Lalaji and the organizations that relates to the brother of Lalaji (Raghubal Dayal) and his children (Brijmohan and Radhamohan lal), ie Akhil Bhartiya Santmat Satsang in India and the Golden Sufi Center in California, to mention only the main ones ...
Not to mention the SRCM, Babuji having had the conviction of having been appointed by Lalaji after his death! (in a dream) This is really a lot of successors for Lalaji ... just like there are many today who claim their succession from Babuji.
The main difference is, it seems, is that there have been no trials or attempted poisoning. But issues of power and money were much less at the time (of Lalaji), there were far fewer followers and a lot less money. This probably explains it ...
Fame, power and money attract coveteousness and complicates every estates. It is a law of history, valid both in religious and spiritual gurus and in politics.
The leader, during his lifetime, by his authority overrides all his lieutenants, through fear of one day being supplanted. At his death, there are necessarily no obvious successors, since there is a gap around him. So while the world rushes for the cake no one wants to share. Quarrels erupt, the wars of succession begin ...
It is a law of history, perhaps even a law of Nature. And the gurus are no more free from this law than others! Power has its reasons ...
The "greater" the leader, the more difficult it is to succeed him. Lalaji was not a giant, Babuji was not a dwarf.
To Chari's (succession), there will soon be an answer. But when you see the current positioning of one and the other, it already heralds a troubled future. And it is not his designated successor, Ajay Kumar Bhatter, who will change things. This is only a puppet named to that post to calm the contenders who can no longer operate in broad daylight (in the open). His (artificial) legitimacy will extinguish itself after Chari's death. Legitimacy is acquired, it can not be decreed ...
Is Chari "Great"? Just answer this: Does he have fame, power or money? Obviously, this is not spirituality at all, but Leadership only!
So when has there ever been a question of spirituality? The history of Sahaj Marg is virtually nothing more than a history of leadership, at least since 1974 ...
