You really crack me up. You've got a person professing to all the media (though she forgot Good Morning America and Oprah) in total ex-premie lingo that she knows first hand about "today's most dangerous cult" after a four day crash course on the ex-premie website. And you think that's normal just because she agrees with you? And you want to argue with me and wonder why I don't want to pursue dialog?

Hi Eileen,

I must admit that it is unusual so far for a newcomer to so quickly be come as extremely reactionary to Maharaji. However in RJC's case it seems that she has done quite a lot of objective looking into cults and religious groups and so I think this is the reason her judgements about her Maharaji are more than averagely informed and she feels so strongly. Of course none of her judgements about Maharaji's particular brand of self-knowledge are made from her own experience of having become a premie etc. but we have to accept that objective valuations are not invalid. Wouldn't you agree?

I don't think anyone here (ex-premie) is going to overlook the fact that RJC has no historical personal beef with Rawat. Should we disagree with RJC or tell her she is disingenuous for embarking on her own crusade to stop what she sees as a 'diabolical cult' simply because she hasn't become a member or 'tasted the fruit'?
I think it is far more appropriate, decent and tolerant to accept that she has her own reasons for making the judgements she has and to wish her luck obtaining in drawing truthful conclusions for herself.

As for the ex-premie lingo. Might I suggest that 'anti-cult' lingo is not something that is exclusive to ex-premies by any means. RJC is someone who has researched cults and is obviously somewhat disgusted at certain aspects of them which she now sees present also in Maharaji's organisation.

And you want to argue with me and wonder why I don't want to pursue dialog?

The natural conclusion to anyone coming here who does not pursue dialogue is that they really don't want to, and just want to sling shots or state their POV without any accountability. In a forum where you avoid answering people it generally means you have no reasonable answer and the other person's point of view is more reasonable. So if you read this please would you mind answering the questions I've taken the trouble to put to you above. (They're easy to spot -there are question marks at the end of the sentence
