Guest guest Posted February 12, 2001 Report Share Posted February 12, 2001 Dear Harsha and the List, In the same spirit as Jerry's (no offence or disrespect intended to anyone) I think one should be very cautious in dealing with all living Masters who engange themselves in (spiritual) Guru Business, especially those who are ardently self-proclaimed (or being put forth by their staff and followers) as omnipotent, omnipresence, and omniscience. One can find in the nets some well-known shameless "Masters" who are exposed by Guru Busters.

I think you'll find it very interesting. Check out the link to Pieter's updated web pages while you're there. >> No offense intended to anyone, as l don't question Mr Samara's account of his experiences, but since he is actively portraying Yogi Bhajan in such an idolatrous light, l feel the dark side of this guru should also be made known, in order to help prevent others from being misled. Yogi Bhajan and his 3HO organization have been scandalized time and time again through disclosures by his many former students. 3 HO bears all the earmarks of a dangerous cult: YB being put forth as an omnipotent and omniscient being, countless allegations and lawsuits involving sexual and financial misconduct, attempts to coerce and completely control members, threats made against members who leave and reprisals against them after they do, a slew of criminal indictments and civil litigation involving 3HO and prominent members thereof. Anyone interested in digging into this can go to rickross.com for more detailed info. l've seen other websites in the past that have provided more damaging evidence, but l don't have the url's to them now. jerry /join All paths go somewhere. No path goes nowhere. Paths, places, sights, perceptions, and indeed all experiences arise from and exist in and subside back into the Space of Awareness. Like waves rising are not different than the ocean, all things arising from Awareness are of the nature of Awareness. Awareness does not come and go but is always Present. It is Home. Home is where the Heart Is. Jnanis know the Heart to be the Finality of Eternal Being. A true devotee relishes in the Truth of Self-Knowledge, spontaneously arising from within into It Self.
