Re; The Truth behind Sahaja Yoga[Resp to Simon]

 

Simon wrote about raising the Kundalini;'Well, frauds like Mataji,

Muktananda and dozens of other fake gurus can do it.'

It is not quite so cut and dried.

More important even than what kind of person the guru is, or what

they have or haven't done, is the criteria that the followers

believe that the energy exists within themselves. The existance of

Divine energy and the Divine message is not dependant on the actions

or character of people.

Messengers are usually considered to be frauds. Jesus Christ is

considered to be a fraud by many. Among other miracles He walked on

water, healed the sick, raised Lazarus from the dead, and Himself

rose from the dead. He claimed to be the Son of God, and was

rejected and crucified. People can either believe these things or

call it all a huge fraud. Let us not forget that Jesus was betrayed

by one of his closest disciples, who had even been present at the

time of many miracles, and who therefore knew the Truth.

The prophet Mohammed had Divine revelations. He also had several

wives, the youngest being about thirteen. He is still one of God's

chosen Prophets, and revealed many important truths.

 

What is the value of special experiences in religions?

The value of having a special spiritual experience is that you

become assured of a meaning to your life, you are assured that death

need not be feared and that the soul continues after death, you have

a way of overcoming personal problems and you can find security and

happiness in your life.

Without spiritual experience, what is the point of life? Can one

really find satisfaction in material things and pleasures alone?

 

Simon wrote; ''Why would she allow her 'children' to be sexually

abused and then blame the victims and protect the abusers?

You're right, it's absurd, too much to believe.

But 10s of 1000s do believe.''

 

There is no excuse for condoning abuse. There can be no mitigating

factors for the abuser; after abuse a child's [or any victim's] life

is ruined for always. Again, though, this is a widespread problem in

many institutions where you have leaders,or people in authority.

Control of sexual desire is a major problem for a lot of men

especially when they are in a position to take advantage of their

power. It is a problem in all institutions, and even more so in

religious ones. The more rigid the rules and expectations [as in the

Catholic Church for example] the more prevalent sexual sin is. Does

it follow that these men are entirely evil and without God? No, I

don't think so. It means that they made a serious mistake, and gave

in to temptation. Most men do give in to temptation when faced with

it.

This still does not mean that there is no Divine energy, or Divine

message.
