Down below there was some discussion of the mendacity of Glen Whittaker, and although Glen is getting on in years (I guess he much be over 60 now), that hasn't appeared to have stopped him from continuing to dabble in dishonesty. In the Passages Video, Glen explains to us that premies wearing saris scared away people from pursuing knowledge, but that his speech to the "Conservative Union" was very "successful."  He had apparently really inspired them, but then the saris wrecked all that.  This is Glen's interpretation these days of what went on then. Hmmm.  I wonder.  Aside being absurd  regarding supposed changes that were made in the late 70s as stated in the video, given that Glen was saying the following to the press at the time of the "sari incident," it might have been more than saris that freaked out the local conservatives, and it was probably Glen, not attire that did it. Plus, Glen was certainly one of them who was claiming that Rawat was God and that people who don't recognize him as such are going to hell.  [See the quote below.] I wonder, when did Glen find out that Rawat wasn't God anymore, or does he still believe it? This is from about 1973 as quoted in the Sunday Daily Mirror, in an article by Jill Robertson: .....The slogan of the child guru is: "Give me your love, and I give you peace." Those who don't are damned, explained the general secretary of the English mission, 29-year-old Oxford graduate Glen Whittaker. Mr. Whittaker, the son of a travel agent in Southport, Lancs., runs the mission in Britain with great efficiency. ... All members of the ashrams, except the housemother, who works as full-time unpaid housekeeper have to continue their normal jobs and hand their weekly wages over to the mission. Glen Whittaker said: "Followers in ashrams must give one hundred per cent service to Guru Maharaj Ji. That's why married couples can't join ashrams." ... I told Glen Whittaker that I thought it paradoxical that a boy should not only live in such style, but should be exempt from the structures that are imposed on followers. Whittaker replied: "They have the wages of happiness and peace." Luxuries are lavished on the boy guru.... "We like to get him the very best," Glen Whittaker explained. "We understand that he is our Lord. "It's the same as Jesus riding into Jerusalem on the donkey." Yes Glen, things have really evolved, haven't they?   Modified by Joe at Fri, Apr 15, 2005, 15:58:40
