Joan Apter from the book:  "Who is Guru Maharaj Ji" 1973 (which I got on EBay for $2):

This is a testimony. But really, without exaggerating, it is a scripture, for I have been graced and the Living Lord has found me, and so my experiences with Guru Maharaj Ji are the eternal experiences written by every soul in the past and will be written by every soul in the future who meets the embodiment of truth, pure consciousness, and bliss, receives his Knowledge, and lives under his universal shelter....

I had been walking from ashram to ashram, weeping quite a lot, reading scriptures and mourning....

Here's how she ended her entry in that book:

Guru Maharaj Ji is pure and perfect. We can experience this purity and this perfection only from the divine manifestation of the soul, the Perfect Master. When I understood that Knowledge was the way that I could be constantly connected to him, internally and externally, I begged for Knowledge. And he gave me that entrance into the kingdom of heaven.

I guess those were all just "Indian traditions" that Ms. Apter discarded, by His grace.
