More Allegations and Accusations From the Family of Babuji, Founder of Sahaj Marg

This article by Shubh Chintak Kishore appeared on "Society for Babuji's Mission" (in the section:  "latest events", also called: "Spotlight".  See more articles at: Society for Babuji's Mission.


4d-Don's Comment:  Apparently, S.C. Kishore and Sharad Chandra Saxena, Babuji's grandson, are receiving these "spiritualist" (from the "Spirit" world) messages directly from Babuji, the Founder of Sahaj Marg, who passed away in 1983 and now allegedly resides in the "Central Region" of their "Brighter World".   They founded the Society for Babuji's Mission, to pubicize Babuji's wishes as expressed in his Messages.  

One would like to see the allegations which are made, substantiated.  Where is the evidence?  Does the Spirit of Babuji have any "proof"?  Allegations (I highlighted below)  such as: "He raised an empire of money by designating himself as Living Master and diverted that fortune to his family and friends at the cost of the Mission (SRCM)."

NOW WAIT FOR GOD’S PUNISHMENT
Shubh Chintak Kishore


This morning at 6.00 A M (IST), Rev. Babuji said
“Hamara Kiya hua to jug zahir hai,”

Then He continued in a sorrowful voice
“Hamare baad jo hogha, uska Khuda hafiz hai”

[My deeds are visible to the world,
After me, what will happen, God is savior for that ]


Rev. Babuji was born with power as He had to introduce something original to the world. For this reason such persons who are “founders” of their system have no ‘guru’ or ‘master’ . They are guided by themselves, like Lord Gautam Buddha, Jesus Christ and others.

Rev. Babuji had to popularize His concept of Sahaj – Marg that this system was for common man living in grahastha (family life) and he/she was not to renounce the family life for spirituality. He gave very high approaches by His power to certain persons even without their being capable of such approaches. Not only that, He also made them realize the conditions of higher regions where they were placed. They also wrote their conditions from time to time when they are in those Region/conditions and their experience were publicized and are well known. His idea was that efficacy of Sahaj Marg reaches ordinary house-holder through the experience of another householder with a view to create confidence in common man. Such preceptors were given position became known all over the world. These deeds of Rev. Babuji are visible to the world as also in the “Brighter World”. However, preceptors of the Mission, selected for the purpose, started considering themselves as another guru and practically side tracked Rev. Babuji except for lip-service. In consequence such persons slipped down even below their level at which they joined the Mission . Though Rev. Babuji was very unhappy with such behaviour of these persons and many other preceptors, Yet He tolerated them in the expectation that one day they would realize their mistakes.

Some of us are knowing what an amount of difficulty Rev. Babuji had to face in pushing Dr K.C.Vardhachari to liberated zone. But this became possible because He was physically living at that time.

But after the mahasamadhi, He has transformed into Power. After that several persons started using the power which they thought they were having by virtue of their being designated as ‘Preceptors’ by the Founder, for making money and popularizing them, the fore-runners amongst them being Sri K.C.Narayana s/o Dr K C Vardhachari and Parthasarthi Rajagopalachari, but in the race in a short span of time Chari bet others hallow. He raised an empire of money by designating himself as Living Master and diverted that fortune to his family and friends at the cost of the Mission (SRCM).

There were accusations that Babuji’s family members were not attentive towards puja. He was impartial to His family member and others for purposes of puja, He considered all alike. However, one of His family members has been rewarded by Him being worthy amongst all the abhyasis. For argument sake, on the same analogy, why did Chari not make his son Krishna as his successor ? In the first instance the person he made to succeed him, but he refused after sometime because it was money alone which he would be inheriting which will have problems, so he refused. The other person whom he has declared his successor to his money empire, has not yet declared his acceptance and is trying to wriggle out viewing the ensuing problems which shall follow him (Chari). This is Chari’s leadership that his own followers do not have confidence in him, unlike Rev. Babuji’s stewardship where several persons like Chari were created, which are known worldwise and still respected because they are Rev. Babuji’s followers. Chari could not make money in his own name though he was wordly wise. He could not do anything in his name as his name was not marketable. So he build the money empire in Rev. Babuji and Shri Ram Chandra Mission’s name.

Now, the abovesaid words of Rev. Babuji which He uttered in a voice full of sorrow “Hamare baad jo hogha, uska Khuda hafiz hai” will apply, because after merging with Power, there will be no emotions with power.

God only is the savior for all such persons.

Amen

Babuji, Founder of Sahaj Marg is an Inexhaustible Talker!

Taken and translated from a French article: "Babuji est un Bavard intarissable", by Élodie, on her blog: "Pour Que Vive Le Sahaj Marg", in Europe.


4d-Don's Comments: If you see someone staring at their navel or talking to themselves, while looking up to the sky, don't call the "men in white", it could simply be an abhyasi of Sahaj Marg(tm) (trade-marked for TRADE and COMMERCE), practicing their "spiritualism" and communicating with the deceased spirit of their founder (or some other "elevated souls" of the dead, Chari's mother, Chari's wife, "beings of light", etc... ), who apparently now live in the "central region" of their "Brighter World" ... OUT THERE, (as in Scientology), IN THE AIR or ABOVE THE CLOUDS (as in many religions ... such as Christianity, Islam, Judaism, etc...).

Babuji, an ex court clerk while living, is now allegedly their Saviour or their "Liberator" from the eternal curse of the cycle of birth and re-birth) ...

OMO (Oh My ONE-ness) ;-))


Let's be REAL now!! They claim to seek REALITY with Sahaj Marg which means: The "easy" or the "Natural Path" ... O... K !! Once upon a time, in a little village far, far away in India, there was little boy who was God incarnate !! ....

Babuji
is an inexhaustible talker


Chari is now nearing the end, and Babuji returns to "front and center" stage, talkative and inexhaustible. Babuji is reborn while Chari is becoming eclipsed.

There was
Whispers (from the Brighter World). Now Babuji also speaks to Kishore and Sharad:


See on: Society For Babuji's Mission
http://www.societyforbabujismission.org.in/


S.C. Kishore said :

“Follow and accept only the founder of the system as Ever Living Master if spiritual growth is desired”.

Important wishes of Rev. Babuji Maharaj are still waiting to be brought into practice.

Babuji, “I did not wish to explain about my wishes during my life time, because I was not sure if people will follow and practice. If not, it will become sin and they will be punished. And no one will be competent to save them. Many things which I wanted will be disclosed after my life by a capable selected person to be implemented. Nature will create the circumstances which will force living beings to follow and practice. Those who fail to do so, they should be ready for punishment ”.

Babuji
at 5.10 AM dated 6th Sep 2012.

Chari has been misguiding innocent members of Sahaj-Marg System that physical living master is required for spiritual progress, and presented self as living master. He said many a times that Babuji is dead and gone.


Sharad Chandra said :


Conversation with Rev. Babuji Maharaj on 12th September 2012, at 5.40 P.M. (IST) at Chennai (India)

Babuji :“Writings of S.C.Kishore & Sharad Chandra should be documented under the title “Haqeeqat Benaqaab” (Reality without covering), as these are truly highlighting about my mission and the damage caused by unethical actions of worthless self styled masters for their selfish material objects.
It is very important to bring to the notice of the living beings present and those yet to be born to know the reality in reality. I wish my mission to be correctly understood by all the deserving living beings for practice. The choice I leave on them” .

Babuji


Accordingly, efforts have to be made by us to bring to the notice of largest number of people world over these instruction of the Master – Rev. Babuji Maharaj.


Elodie said:


Is Babuji an inexhaustible talker (whisper-er)? Let us enjoy it. I think many of us want answers to some of our questions, or at least some clarification. -Why did he change his mind on Chari in 1982 and named Umesh Chandra?
-Why would he choose Sharad today?
-Will he talk to Kamlesh Patel?

Already one anonymous "Babuji's Messenger" invited him/herself to be among the invited "media" of Babuji in 2010, it was the first of the "Mediums" in the midst of the Whispers hoax/scam. This time it is "open door" to mystifications and shenanigans of all kinds.


Know
that yesterday, he (Babuji) said to me:
"They have all gone astray from my Sahaj Marg system. When I see the damage, I say STOP. On behalf of Sahaj Marg and in my name, they have massacred spirituality. They must be stopped, all of them."

You
do not believe? You should, it's more realistic than anything we read all day long.

Sahaj Marg(tm) and Meditation 7th Yoga!!

Taken and translated from an article by Alexis: "Meditation 7th Yoga", on Élodie's blog in Europe: "Pour Que Vive Le Sahaj Marg"



Don's Comment:


Read on this blog: "Chari's Nightmare".

If
Spirituality Unites and Religion Divides, then what we have here with Sahaj Marg, or Sahaj Marg (tm), is simply another "divisive religion". A Cult of Personality" (ego). Chari's fear was that SRCM would schism into 240 pieces.
That means that there are only 230 divisions left to achieve. Some future President of SRCM (California-1997) will no doubt claim that Chari was a PROPHET !!

We are ALL ONE!! SEEK ONE THAT UNITES.

Ramifications
of Sahaj Marg: yet one more ...

Everyone knows the main trend of Sahaj Marg(tm) (by the number of abhyasis) it's Lalaji-Babuji-Chari (and soon Kamlesh Patel); almost as well known are the trends of Lalaji-Babuji-Kasturi, Lalaji-Babuji-Varadachari (ISRC of Narayana), Lalaji-Babuji and his descendants (Navneet, Puneet and Sharad). We also have: Lalaji-Babuji-Srivastava, Lalaji-Babuji-Rao or Reddy, the full preceptors, or Lalaji-Babuji-Poray (in France) or even Lalaji-Babuji-Swamiji (IUSCM, the latest discovery).

That therefore added up to at least 9 ramifications if one considers that Sharad and Navneet play their game together, which is far from clear, given the atmosphere of cupidity (greed?) that rocks the family of Babuji. But I just found a tenth ramification: Lalaji-Babuji-Vivekananda, or rather, we should write Lalaji-Vivekananda-Babuji the ramification put in place by Sri SR Murthy and Smt Jaya Murthy, who particularly put forward Swami Vivekananda, nothing less! That one, we have not had "pulled on us" yet. Many individuals, many interpretations of the texts and words of the great Babuji ...

For Sri SR Murthy and Smt Jaya Murthy, the Eternal President of the Mission is Swami Vivekananda, as it says in the autobiography of Babuji. The Master / Guru is Babuji forever. The Mission is the gross body of Babuji Maharaj, the method is his more subtle body and its soul is the Master himself.

They
attach great importance to the autobiography of Babuji, and they notably quote some excerpts from the second part (Volume III - April 1945-June 1955):



Swami Vivekananda dictation : 03-04-1945
“You are not at leisure at any time (now). Duties are coming concerning constructive progressive programme of your organisation and one alone. You will get this plan and programme from Lord Krishna. We have both agreed on this point, i.e. constructive work perfectly under my guidance. no concern with your revered Master Lalaji in that regard. I am the head of this department. viz. construction. Spiritual work He (Lalaji) will do. This is a Permanent arrangement.”

Swami Vivekananda dictation : 23-7-1945
“Accept and convey my heart-felt sympathy and blessings to the workers of the Mission. It is the will of the over-ruling Providence to have such an organization permanently run. This is not at all the play of human brain. The scheme I have given is divine.”

Swami Vivekananda dictation : 29-7-1945
“Your position as president of the Mission is only nominal. I am working in your form at present. The same system will go on in case of every president following you. The post is very important ; and not open to everybody. I assure you but one thing and your Guru said the same somewhere, viz. your mistakes will count much and can not be excused easily. The higher the position one enjoys. The more burdened one is. Be alert and careful to do your duty calmly consultation, of course, you can have amongst yourselves; but you most not abide big it unless you consult me and get confirmation, specially in matters concerning the Mission and no doubt in other matters also, in general.

In the case of the Mission work, I am the authority.
The rest depends on your Master, who has bestowed this authority on me everything, no doubt, is under the control of your revered Master here and above, but he has distributed some (parts) of his work to different sages, making himself more free for you.”



Sri SR Murthy and Smt Jaya Murthy are at the head of a movement called Meditation 7th Yoga, Sathpath Shri Ramchandra Mission of Meditation, Yoga and Spiritual Life Society, with headquarters at Visakhapatnam (Andhra Pradesh, India).

In 2011, they created a website 'sriramchandramission.org', but this may not have pleased the SRCM (California-1997) of Chari who probably took it from them, and we can only assume that Murthy gave in to threats of lawsuits. So they changed the domain name to: http://meditation7yoga.org/index.php in September 2011. It remains no less that they still use the same logo (emblem) as the SRCM, created by Babuji ... And "Whispered" by Vivekananda? Or was that by Lalaji, I do not know anymore !

It is while seeking more information about Sharad that I stumbled onto this group. Indeed, Sharad and SC Kishore visited them in December, 2010 to say that they had been called by Babuji to reunify (unite / align) Sahaj Marg ...

Whisper From Babuji, Founder of Sahaj Marg, from the Brighter World!

I received this message from "anonymous", in Bangalore, Karnataka, India, in the comments to my translation of Élodie's blog in Europe, titled (in English on this blog) : "At Sahaj Marg(tm), It's Full Powers for Kamlesh D. Patel". Élodie's blog is called: "Pour Que Vive Le Sahaj Marg".


Comment by 4d-Don:


These Whispers (channeled messages), allegedly from Babuji, Lalaji, Chari's mother, Chari's wife, "other elevated souls" including some "beings of light", are channeled by an anonymous French Lady Medium, who is an abhyasi of Sahaj Marg(tm), but who is not a professional Medium. Babuji died April 13, 1983. Lalaji died in 1931.

The "whispers" (500-600 of them) are packaged in an "opulent" book, and sold every year (one per year @ $150.00 USD) as a major fund-raiser for SRCM (Califronia - 1997), Chari's society.


Maybe soon, Sahaj Marg will also have "angels", archangels, demons, etc..." , and since they already have a "Central Region" and a "Brighter World", then soon they may include a "Darker World" (hell??), for a complete mechanism of "Fear and Temptation", just like a Spiritualist RELIGION!!

How the Spiritual have sold out their spirit, their "ONE-ness", for a penny or two ... a shiny metallic icon, representing the illusion of the temporal power of the material !

This Whisper was sent to the subscribing abhyasis on Sept. 4, 2012.



Anonymous Said:


Hi Don,

Thanks for your perseverance! I will attempt to write out the message now. Here we go:

"We are waiting for you here in this sacred place where your heart lays itself bare. This surrender allows messages to be noted down. Having a gift would not be enough; for this, another dimension must be added to this mediumistic capacity. It requires total commitment and, above all, extraordinary love. An appropriate vibration ensures that these lines are written and in time will produce a tremendous contribution to our Mission. In the future, these writings will become unavoidable; they will be an integral part of our teaching, that is how it is. Minds will keep opening up to this reality for the good of human beings. Unprecedented openness will occur in this direction; we need to go forward and lead our brothers and sisters to a broad understanding of these phenomena that are ignored by many people. Progress continues to be cited; it seems to be the key word in this modern society. Perhaps it too should open up to other possibilities far removed from materiality!"

"Our brothers and sisters should also approach this reality that is beyond them. Indeed, since this reality is voluntarily ignored, modern society does not have access to knowledge as proposed in these times when darkness prevails on many levels. These comments may be shocking, but it is high time that minds open up and that this aspect of life is no longer ignored. We are not the first ones in this area to use this means of communication. We have already said it, but it was never made clear, hence the current state of ignorance on this point in certain countries. We need to go forward; therefore may all abhyasis open up to this teaching. Such is our wish for the good of all."

Babuji Maharaj

Shall I translate this for any of you? OK, here we go:

Stop thinking critically, and stop questioning these messages that are coming straight from the divine! Who are you to question these messages, you who live in ignorance, you who are not yet evolved enough to open to "certain realities"?

You are not to question these divine dictates, but gladly accept them!


Thanks, glad to be of service. I am free to translate any whispers, for anyone who is curious. No charge! Just send me the page number, and include which volume number (1-4), and I'll post a translation.

Happy cult-skewering!


Testimonial of Anonymous Sahaj Marg(tm) Abhyasi!

I received this comment from an abhyasi from Bangalore, Karnataka, India, as a comment to my article on this blog about another testimonial in Europe: My Ex-Partner Meditates With Sahaj Marg (cont'd 2009-2012)


Testimonial of Abhyasi of Sahaj Marg(tm)

Anonymous Said:


Dear All,

Lalaji Maharaj of Fategarh was a sufi saint who learnt from his Guru Fazl Ahmed khan - This is what we know of him from some sources. For me this is believable.

The problem starts when as Michael said, this "Babuji" - this ambitious man - created This system - called it Sahaj Marg - placed his "Once upon a time Guru" at the top ( Adiguru ) may be out of some kind of gratitude or may be to USE his name to drive the Mission. He was a stupid, illiterate man who read a few books and understood his spiritual condition as something and believed he was on top, higher than saints like Kabir - As though HE was the Master of the universe. He provided proof my (by?) saying Lord krishna talked to him. Where were Jesus and Muhammad? He saw only krishna, vivekananda - the people he read about or was inspired by!!! Then he used an intelligent spiritual aspirant, called Parthasarathi ( Who infact "was" my guru in some way ) to promote his Mission/ his ambition - this Marg.

Babuji filled his head with all bullshit about "Serving Master" & "Mission" - He made him believe that "THAT" was "The purpose of life", of his life, of all lives! "Obeying divine will", "Serving like a servant" etc etc. He encouraged "loyalty" and "dependency" of all kinds from all his disciples - one who was ever ready was Parthasarathi- Curious, energetic, ambitious like most people. He believed that Lalaji guided Babuji and he was also expected to be "obedient", "sincere", "loyal" to Babuji. Finally Babuji had to die of old age. His disciple didn't lose hope. He continued to believe he is still guided and ran the organization the way he felt was right.

So when "Parthasarathi" or the prefects expect the same from the abhyasis now and fill their minds with filth, beliefs once taught by Babu - There should be no wonder and hatred towards this guru figure. But to that moron who started it all - who tamed people like us - who made a sheep out of them - who made them believe so much that that they made it their life. That moron is dead now. Yet He and many others are now even believing in the possibility of that asshole speaking from a brighter world. That self-centered man is responsible for the mission or the organization to be this now - people experience conditions - but frankly no realization is possible here - because as per the dead man - you gotta earn it!!!

Sun Sep 09, 01:09:00 AM

Continued from above....

Ctd .... I have been angry on most occasions before with this person - Parthasarathi - I understand that the intention was there to help and also understand that how much of a help he was to me through this organization - may not be as a Guru - Because he is simply promoting SRCM as per the orders of that sick ambitious dead man. But now the help stops for me - because i see no possibility of realization here in this "guru-centered" institution that is directed by the ambitions of the dead.

Once you stop finding answers, there is no point in sticking on believing in something or being there out of fear. There is nobody there to be feared. No one wants to harm you - They are concerned for you, so the Mission is there. But they believe genuinely ( not from experience ) that someone out there in a shitty place called "Brighter World" ( assuming the position of God ) is there protecting them, guiding them to liberation or whatever! This belief has made them stupid. Can't blame the President of the Mission - He does everything with a sense of duty ( to Babuji ) - Also the people around Him do it as duty( to Chariji )

It is true that ambition, desire is an obstacle in itself - also SRCM believes in this - but it helps you become free from something and then puts something in you and on you ( concepts, theories - that your mind struggles with ). Stay away from belief systems like this one and so many versions of SRCM out there! It is better to stick with your religious faith than becoming deluded and stupid here. Rather follow non-duality methods - If you think you need a guru, go - trust him or her. But always take responsibility for yourself. And let self-realization be your goal.

I pray for the well being and good of Parthasarathi, Don, Elodie, Alexis, Michael and whoever is affected by this misery of Babuji and his destructive mission. Don't lose hope. Because like me, your journey or experience started here. Now BEAWARE of organizations or organised systems - stay away. "What you seek is right where you are! You are what you seek. That is the ultimate realization." I hope we all arrive at the same understanding soon.

Thanks. Best regards - Anonymous!

At Sahaj Marg (tm), It's Full Powers For Kamlesh D. Patel

Translation of an article by Élodie: "Les Pleins Pouvoirs Pour Patel", on her blog: "Pour Que Vive Le Sahaj Marg", in Europe.

4d-Don's Humour!

A Fairy Tale From The Brighter World


Curtains open to harp music in the background as a "being of light" enters from STAGE RIGHT, calling:


"Spiritualist delivery from the "Central Region of the Brighter World"...

"Message for Chari!! Message for Chari!!"
"Will there be any return mail?? Will that be "Air mail", "Space mail", "Quantum mail"?

Will that be registered as "SPECIAL" delivery? ...This service is meant only for "special entities", and is delivered at or beyond the speed of LIGHT??


(Oh! My God ... Give us a break!! Give your head a shake!!)

N.B.:

The Sahaj Marg(tm) spiritualist clan makes up a fairy tale, and then they believe their own "TALES" ... How sad!! Would you buy "drugs" from this clan led by a spiritualist druggist ??Why do they need doctors and drugs? They can allegedly simply write and mail Babuji a letter in the Brighter World, the in-accessible Central Region!!

Are "miracles" now part of Sahaj Marg(tm)?

Could this be an example of the Board of Directors of Spiritualist SRCM (California-1997) dealing with "Improper and Evil Practices - Stoppage of" with their non-existing invention called: "Standard of Spiritualism" as mentionned in Chari's SRCM (California-1997) Constitution and "Bye" - Laws, ... See: Page 14, Section 11 ??

Another fantasy which exists in their MIND only !!

Full powers For Patel



What actually happened on August 15?

Chari began by resigning all his duties, but at the request of the Working Committee, he remains the president of SRCM, while giving full powers to his (newly-appointed?) vice president Kamlesh D. Patel.
Patel is not quite yet the third president of the Mission, he probably will be after the death of Chari, but he now has all the power. Thus, as of today, Chari is nothing but a sort of honorary president.

Who is this
Plenipotentiary Vice President ?

Kamlesh Desaibhai
Patel was born in Gujarat (State in Western India bordering on Pakistan) some fifty years ago. He emigrated to the United States, to Staten Island, in the state of New York, more than 20 years ago, and became a pharmacist in Brooklyn.He is an early-comer to Sahaj Marg, an abhyasi from the earliest period, preceptor for almost as long, going through all the positions of responsibility (area-in-charge region-in-charge, etc..), to positions as director of the American Foundation (Sahaj Marg Spirituality Foundation -SMSF) and chief mediator of the new World Service Team of SRCM. He made several "donations" to the SRCM, among which ten acres of land for a retirement center.He has been appointed by Chari as his successor, the next spiritual Representative of his divine master, Babuji and future President of SRCM for life, in a written document written at the Diamond Jubilee Park at Tiruppur, July 26, 2011, and co-signed by U.S. Bajpai, AK Bhatter Bhatia and Sanjay, but officially announced two months later. This second Tiruppur statement has received approval from Babuji, in a message to Chari, confirming the choice of the person to succeed him.
Following his appointment, Patel moved to the Garden of Hearts (Chennai), at the Babuji Memorial Ashram.

Sources: 4d-Don and Alexis


The reactions were not long to arrive!


Navneet and Puneet (sons of Umesh) remain silent, but that is not the case with their cousin Sharad Chandra Saxena, the eldest son of Babuji's grandchildren and his sidekick Shubh Chintak Kishore.
In 1982, Babuji (allegedly) told him:
“nature will punish him [Chari] during his last living days. (…) Sharad all I have, I have transferred it to you. Here after you will be the one and only powerful person”. Today, Sharad adds: “Recently, when I came to know about Chari’s physical condition, I remembered His said words; now nature has started taking its part.”

S.C. Kishore
adds that the courts have only designated Chari as intermediary president, and that, thanks to his ill-gotten money at the head of the Mission. Accordingly, he has no right to appoint the next president. He (allegedly) would also have manipulated the financial accounts of the Sahaj Marg Mission, diverting it from its objectives. According to Kishore, anyone can increase the number of abhyasis, but few can guarantee honesty in the financial management of the Mission and the purity of Sahaj Marg. Babuji has (allegedly) appointed his grandson Sharad, and S.C. Kishore to take things in hand, under his direct supervision See: (www.societyforbabujismission.org.in under "Latest Events").

The claims of the
descendants of Babuji so as to recover the mission is far from extinct. Is it to reinstate the purity of the system or to benefit at their turn from the accumulated wealth? Everyone will decide for him/herself.

From his side Narayana, son of Dr. Varadachari, and as well the followers of Sister Kasturi, have never accepted that Chari may be the spiritual representative of Babuji. It is not today that they will change. Http://lalajibabujikasturiji.blogspot.com/ on August 11, Ek abhyasi quotes Babuji:

"Persons who claim that they have made their conscience as their guru, are under a wrong notion because the fact is that not the conscience but their ego becomes their guru which leads to undesirable results.

(…) 'Please do not take any thing for granted even if God in human form comes and says that He is God unless and until He makes you understand according to your level of wisdom that why and how He is so.' This will develop clarity in understanding which will tell us about the fake spiritual leader from whom one should get rid of soon".

(…)
The exceptional thing with Babuji Maharaj is that he never treated himself a guru rather he used to say and has also written in his book "Reality at Dawn","God is the real guru or Master and we get light from Him alone. But as it is extremely difficult for a man of ordinary talent to draw inspiration from God direct, we seek one of our fellow beings who has established his connection with Almighty. He must, therefore, treat himself as the humblest servant of God serving humanity in the name of the Great Master. All through his (Lalaji) life, he treated his associates as brethren. The idea that they were his disciples never once crossed his mind. I think and feel it as an essential thing for a guru to give up his masterly position and feel himself an ordinary servant of humanity. If he feels himself as a Master and hence far above his associates, it will be Ahankar (ego) of the worst type in a guru."The critical watermark of the behavior of Chari, the ordinary man, is obvious.

No applause came to punctuate Chari's proposal to appoint Kamlesh Patel as the head of the Mission. The applause of the 2,000 abhyasis in the room began to resonate when the Working Committee had asked Chari to remain as president and he accepted. Patel, ostensibly very emotional by Chari's proposal, must have felt very alone and began to measure the difficulties which lie ahead for him to one day being recognized and approved.

He will have to win the souls of the abhyasis one by one intern-ally, if he wants to one day enjoy the same popularity as Chari. And now externally, one can also notice things stirring, the last thirty years (1983-2012) may well have been a parenthesis in the history of Sahaj Marg, that could be closing at Chari's death. For once, Chari's nightmare of seeing his SRCM (California-1997) disintegrate into 240 small missions could be prescient. For spirituality in general, it is the best we can hope for.

Elodie


Copy of the
transcript of the SRCM statements from the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shri Ram Chandra Mission, August 15, 2012 at Manapakkam:

Parthasarathi Rajagopalachari (PR) :

Dear brothers and sisters,


I thank you all for coming to this Extra-Ordinary Annual General meeting at such short notice, especially after most of you have been to Tiruppur – after a wild goose chase there. Circumstances beyond my control have brought out these events, and it is with great personal effort that I am here before you today. Your response, your overwhelming response, indicates to me that what my dear Babuji Maharaj writes again and again in Whispers is true: that hearts are beginning to open to Reality, that people want the spiritual life more and more, are willing to commit themselves more and more, and give themselves to it more and more, which is a very good sign.
Now I have been in bed for forty-five days, since the fifth of July. The first two, three weeks went very bad. Subsequently also it is not so very bad, but bad. I think, personally I think, it will take a few more weeks for me to be on my feet though my doctors say, “Today,” “Tomorrow,” “Today,” “Tomorrow.” I have been thinking a lot about the Mission. Over the past two and a half, three years, I have sent messages to Babuji Maharaj that my eyesight is failing. He knows about it. Of course, he says, “These things happen,” but the practical implication is that I can’t read emails, somebody has to read them; I have to dictate, somebody has to type them, and that is not something that a president should be doing. It is not correct. When I sign cheques I have to ask brother MDS, “Where is this going? What for? What is the amount?” and then sign, because I can’t see. Now, during the last one month, my signature itself has become a scribble, sort of. So I have come to the conclusion that it would not be proper for me to continue as President. After all, Kamlesh Patel is ready. He has been nominated and accepted worldwide. All the legal things have been put in place. There is nothing … the working committee must just take a signature from him saying, “I accept to be the President,” like they did in Hyderabad in ’83, and that is that, you see. So to make sure that I would not be going on the wrong track, I wrote to beloved Babuji Maharaj. Somebody read it.

Kamlesh Patel :


This letter is written by our beloved Master:

11 August 2012, Saturday, 12:15 pm

Beloved Babuji Maharaj,


I prostrate at your feet. I have been very unwell for four weeks now, during which I have suffered a great deal. I have turned eighty-five years old. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. Solely in the interests of the Mission and its proper guidance, I propose to transfer all the powers of the President, under the constitution and by-laws, to brother Kamlesh Patel and request the working committee to announce him as the third president of the Mission on the fifteenth of August 2012. He is ready for the job and all the legal formalities have already been put in place. I have therefore called for an extra-ordinary general meeting of the Mission on the fifteenth August morning, which is to accomplish this fact.
On that morning, I shall cease to be the President and Kamlesh Patel shall take over as the next representative.


[Working Committee Member continues reading]


On that morning, I shall cease to be President, and Kamlesh Patel shall take over as the next representative. I have to humbly make this suggestion because my body is very weak. During these four weeks I have been spoon-fed by my children and unable to get out of bed. I do not foresee any improvement in my health status. If the hierarchy so decides, I shall continue as the Master of Sahaj Marg.
Dear Master, I require clear instructions in this matter.

With my love,


Your son,

Parthasarathi.


PR : I received his reply promptly.

Working Committee Member :

Master has received this reply from revered Babuji Maharaj.

My dearest son,
That idea is agreeable to us. You may implement it according to the wishes you have expressed. You must imperatively free yourself from anything that currently weighs heavily on you. As we have said previously, the essential part of your activity is going on in a masterly fashion. Make all the decisions you deem appropriate. Make it all clear and irrefutable. You know human reactions better than anyone else, as you have suffered first-hand from them so much. Likewise, your future successor will endure a lot of it. Take care of yourself, dear great Parthasarathi. You are so precious to our hearts. The remainder of your Earthly life is important in terms of clarifying things. We cannot avert all the turbulence prompted by your health problems. You know the matter well; it is needless to insist on it. Do everything you deem necessary for your peace of mind and the welfare of the Mission. More than ever, we are at your side. Be at peace as much as the current situation permits. When you come and rejoin us on the heavenly fields with the whole of your bodies, you will be able to truly assess the incredible work you have accomplished for this great Mission. We carry you with utmost love and we support you in every respect.

We all here wish you all the best.


Babuji Maharaj


PR : Apart from these messages, which are my personal exchanges with Babuji Maharaj, he has been sending open messages every day for the last two, three weeks, emphasising the importance of whatever it is. I am not running away from anything. You all know I have never run away from anything. But when I cannot do anything, what is the alternative? So that is why I have taken this decision. The working committee may deliberate on it and let me know what they want. All right?


[Working committee members suggest that Master continue as President and brother Kamlesh be nominated as Vice-President.]


PR : With all powers.

Aap log samajh gaye na mera prastaav? Bhaion, beheno, spasht samjhe na?

[Did you all understand my proposal? Brothers and sisters, did you understand clearly?]


Mera vichaar hai ki bhai Kamlesh Patel ko abhi President bana den aur mein chutti le loon. Lekin hamare buzurg log kehte hain ki Kamlesh Patel ko abhi Vice-President bana deejiye with all powers.

[My thought is that brother Kamlesh Patel can be made the President now and I can take leave. But our seniors here are saying, “Please make brother Kamlesh Patel the Vice-President now, with all powers.”]


[applause]


Abhyasis :
Yes.

PR : All right, I agree.

[applause]


To aaj hi kar deejiye kaagazaat waagazaat

[Prepare the documents today]: “as Vice-President who shall enjoy the powers of the constitution and shall do everything as if it is done by the President.” Appoint Kamlesh Patel as Vice-President of Shri Ram Chandra Mission, who will enjoy all the powers of the constitution and by-laws, and all actions done by him will be as done by the President.


[Master gives a brief sitting]

PR : Kai doctor – sab yahaan ghire huey hain hamaare. Unka kehna hai hamen yahaan se seedha bistre (pe) jaana hai, kafi strain ho chuka hai. Mujhe afsos hai ki har ek se hum mil nahi paayenge, na vidai le paayenge. Voh hoga, phir kabhi milenge. Sab ko aashirvaad hai.

[My doctors, who are all around me, tell me that I should go straight to bed and that I have strained myself too much. I regret that I will not be able meet each one of you individually, nor say goodbye. It may happen when we meet again.

Blessings to all of you.]
