Are you really writing to the ex forum while in Amaroo?  That's kinda strange.  Isn't that like drinking coffee and taking a sleeping pill all at once.

Your post is a bit disturbing.  You make odd comments, such as the Lord/opinion comment.  You seem blind to the present reality of Rawat's drinking, even while liquor flows abundantly on site.  And the irony of your smoking analogy is huge.

But what makes me sad is this:  "For those of us who want peace within, Maharaji's Knowledge and inspiration is invaluable."  Are you really so unfeeling and elitist as to think that people who reject Rawat also reject inner peace?

The reason that people reject Rawat's message is that they see him as defining inner peace in the wrong way.  He is like a con man who sells air to people.  Air is free, you don't have to buy it from somebody.  Inner peace is independent of Rawat and "his" Knolwedge and his inspiration.    For people who go to Amaroo, what they are experiencing is not inner peace, but guru worship.  Go ahead and enjoy that, if you want to, but call it what it is, if you have the necessary discrimination.

My advice to you is to stay clear of computers while in Amaroo.  Take in the experience there.  Feel what you feel, and think what you think.  And then determine for yourself if you are doing the right thing.  It's important.  It's important to do the right thing, and not be caught in an unworthy fraud.  Be independent.  Think for yourself, unswayed by either Rawat or the anti-Rawats.  And then, if you do find yourself troubled, THEN spend some time at EPO and this forum.
