Guest guest Posted June 23, 1999 Report Share Posted June 23, 1999 Hi everyone, Let me say this. I have been around many, many gurus from India here in America. I don't mean an occasional encounter with them. Years ago, I was steeped in their cults and they all came highly recommended. (Love is blind you know.) When I found the Ramakrishna Order I breathed a sigh of relief. That is the only Order that I trust. The monks of the Ramakrishna Order, while still being human, are impeccable. The integrity of the Order is above reproach. I do not think that any of us on this list are looking to adopt another guru. The Ramakrishna Order is the finest in the world, I am sure. My dialogue on age limits in monasteries is only for the purpose of exploration and venting. I don't think anyone who is posting on this subject is looking for a guru. At least, I know I am not and I have not read that into any other postings. I appreciate and fully embrace the wonderful Order of Ramakrishna that our beloved Swamiji brought to this country. I am fully dedicated to the teachings of Vedanta as promulgated by Swamiji, and grateful for the teacher that I do have here. I feel we are all blessed to be in the company of the saints of the Ramakrishna Order. I know God's grace was instrumental in escorting me to the doors of the Ramakrishna Order and every day I thank God for His blessings. I am a bit uncomfortable with the marketing of other gurus on this list. May peace be with you! Love, Jody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
