I just got back from going to Coventry for my dear Mother's funeral and I found this charming anonymous email from a premie;

'You have not experience the truth, so you don't know what you are saying. I am sorry for you.'

The fact is, I experienced more love and honesty at the funeral than I ever did at one of Maharaji's events. More openess and love between the grieving reletives than I ever did amongst premies.

And the statement from the premie that I don't know the truth is surely a most damning reflection upon Maharaji, the revealer of truth because I followed him for eleven years, lived in his ashram for two and yet he STILL didn't reveal the truth to me. And me a sincere seeker! What hope the rest of the world!

But this is the problem. Premies in their narrow closetted Maharaji view of the world, think they alone know anything of any validity. And they only number a few thousand in the whole world.

As I wandered back leasurely from the funeral, driving through Warwickshire's beautiful countryside, stopping here to look at some sheep, stopping there to just look at the view and admire an ancient church or picturesque village; I was knocked out by the peaceful and idylic feeling that such places bring. No premies here, thank God, no masters or students but just lazy country life amongst the stupendous beauty of nature on a warm summer's day...

Thanks guys. I found the funeral to be a good thing because all the friends and reletives grieved and had a good cry together. I found it necessary and there was a close bond felt there. As a definite post-premie I never deny such feelings of grief and when they are shared with other mourners, they are a great help.

Life goes on and I'm planning on buying a camper van to get away from it all with the kids this summer. And maybe we'll check out the solar eclipse in Cornwall too, if we make it down that far.

Dear David -
My sympathy & condolences to you. I know it's a hard thing to lose a parent at any age - you truly get a sense of your own mortality. It does sound like the funeral was a healing experience, and I'm glad for that.

Take care of yourself -
Lots of love from
Katie

Dear Dave,
You have your feet firmly planted in what is really important. That has been apparent since I read the first post of yours that I saw and in the archives. Love, and honest caring for those in your life who mean someting to you. Anything beyond that is fluff.
You know my thoughts and caring are with you and I am glad it was a good caring funeral and that the ride was peacful.
Love,
Robyn

Thanks for these further messages of sympathy and Barney, I really appreciate how you and other ex-prems feel if your parents died in your cult years.

I was fortunate in that I had no obsticals in my way in being with both my parents at the end and I was glad about that.

I know that Joe Whalen has expressed regret that he wasn't around his father when he died. Yes, that's tough one and not something you can just forget about. In such instances perhaps it helps to continue contact with the surviving close reletives and friends of the deceased. That certainly helps in my case.

Yes, Warwickshire is a beautiful county and to wander through its lanes and villages is a great healer. You can drive, cycle or walk for miles without touching a main road and there's a surprise round every corner and a new adventure up ahead.

Sorry about your mum Sir David.

As punishment for his bad behaviour, the lord of
the universe shunned HIS mom for 17 years till
she died and he never got to have a family cry.
The boys at the funeral were still at odds and
on the flight home raja ji laid into prem.
What he said can only be guessed but raja did
have the courage at that time to blast him.
I heard from an instructor that prem asked raja
on the flight home from burning mom on the pyre
'when you die will you be thankful for your life',
and raja blasted him.
I did hear that prem was shocked or stunned by
raja ji's words.

rawat found later that he did indeed have a
vulnerability to missing his mom.
Just a bit late.
All that enlightenment about the importance
of family briefly came crashing home.

No mention of this late learning in his list
of achievements on his web site.

No shattered family deserved such a fate as
justly as the rawat clan since they callously
demanded the same shattered family from the rest of
us.

His kids never saw thier grandma.

Neither did raja's kid.

No playing -ring around the jayanti tree-
or -hide the knowledge-
or -beat the mahatma-
or -scream at the devotee-
or -launder the money-
or -holy family-
I hate you
you hate me
pride will keep us in misery,
till one of us kicks the can,
showing us a stupid clan.

I think an effective action we could take is to drop 'ex-premie.org' cards all around the hall (don't get caught for littering). I was going to do this at the Miami program, but my work forced me to be elsewhere. We should have at least one ex at a program to surreptitiously leave cards all over the place- restrooms, seats, sales tables, etc.

Also, there is always a nearby event for aspirants, and they can be intercepted as they walk back and forth to the main event. All they need to see is one phrase, whether on a poster or card, and I bet there will be a good 50% success rate. (Now there will be an emergency meeting of p's to discuss how to hide the aspirants!).

I sat in a knowledge selection meeting a few programs back, and it was pathetic. Belkis comes in after the morning event in which m's speech was particularly boring (even to me and I was still a p at the time) and says: Wasn't that incredible? Every time he speaks, it just get more incredible!' The bullshit was deafening. I watched all these people, including 12 year olds, begging for knowledge and swearing they were watching videos three times a week after they got home from school. The level of ass kissing and crow gobbling in front that arrogant m clone was one of my first major drips. I told p's I attended the k selection, and they would say: OOOOHHHHH, WOOOOWWWW! How did you get to do that? Yeah right.

You should see the money counting room. They count and count and count, while security goes through this extremely elaborate procedure to move the money out to a safe deposit box in a nearby hotel.
This usually involves a keystone cop scene with two carloads of p's whipping through the streets doing their amateur security act.
I talked to a nice fellow from England who was high up in security over there, who said none of them were allowed to participate in secuirty in the us at that program due to the bad blood between each country's team.

The press release needs to not make accusations (there is a way toword it so it gives one persons understanding) and needs a phone number for the newspaper to call to get more info. In which case ther would need to be more pages available for their paper after the event.

I can remember just zoning out (sometimes even falling asleep) as Maharaji gave some particularly repetitive, stupid, boring, and sometimes very lengthy satsang at some program. But then the initiators would get up the next day, or when we returned to our communities and say how incredible it all was. It was so easy to convince yourself that it was true. We are such suggestible creatures, especially if you want something to be true anyway, and espeically if you have been conditioned to disregard your own critical thought processes.

So nothing ever really changes. It seems like only yesterday that I was doing that in Rome.

The animosity goes way back to the Pie in the Face incident when Raja Ji flew a plane load of English security over to the states to take over. Maharaji encourages this separatist shit to keep everyone on their toes (or their knees).

Anyone who believes that M has any feelings at all for premies should read this shit and weep.

It depends how many free seats are left!

Then make some calculation:

how many seats in Manchester? 2,000?

2,000 x 40 = 80,000 $

Expenses for the conference:

renting of the hall and special equipment? 10,000 $ maximum.
(Anybody to check the cost for renting the hall?)
All other expenses (M's residence) are paid by premies directly.

Profit? $ 70,000 in UK (+ satellite link's profit, don't forget!)
+ all donations at the event: $ 100,000? 200,000? (that goes directly to m)

Where goes EV's profit?

EV UK will get a huge invoice from Visions and/or one of these other companies, as 'copyrights' for the 'special videos' shown before and after m's discourse, and expenses for the US consultants' team managing the event (one of these 'private' companies).

And guess who's going to get a 65,000 $ gift?

I am posting this note on the forum because you have cancelled your e-mail.

I'm sure you meant well in your dealings with me. If what you said to the PWKs is true, this is very sad indeed. Why is Maharaji scared? If you keep posting on the net, you are revealing the paranoia. In turn, more will leave. He needs people like you. If you keep reading, you may leave.

You really are a great guy. You have invested a lot of yourself in Maharaji. You have a lot of faith. Even you admitted your doubt about the LOTU thing, yet you get a message and you jump.

It is very painful to look at the whole picture. I have a huge hole in my life now. I miss that faith, the euphoria, etc. but I can never go back. You said I can deal with it because I have that strength, a lot more than people realize. I know you do, but perhaps you are putting it in the wrong direction.

I believe you spoke to me in good faith. I think you fully intended to walk me through the front door. You found out you couldn't. You wrote that last e-mail to gently dissuade me from going. Come on! Would you go for it under those circumstances. I am a human being with the need to increase my dignity. God knows I denigrated myself many, many, many times over Maharaji. Remember when he told us to be fools for him--then that guy got up and danced like a puppet. Well, I have been a fool. I didn't get any closer.

I have become conditioned via this belief system to want euphoria all the time. Always searching for the bliss. We both know that a constant state of this is impossible. I believe that RT stated our position very clearly. Oh to sway mindless with our brothers and sisters for over three minutes.

It's nice to believe that we have a Maharaji who is looking out for us. It is nice to believe that the end of this life is not the end. It is nice to have a purpose. It is a great deal more comforting than the stark reality of is this is all there is.

Maharaji is stuck in this too. He knows he's made some boo boos. He has tried to correct them, but he can't help himself. He is just as addicted to the whole thing as the people who follow him.

If nothing else, I wish you would read The Guru Papers. This book clearly explains the whole phenomenon. Please make sure you know its true before continuing. If it is a lie, it would be a shame to waste even one more moment enslaved to this master and belief system.

I do wish you all the best.

Love,

Gail

AOL provides services in most countries. If you've got an AOL account, you can connect from outside the country you usually live. Like if I'm living in France, and travel abroad, I can use my account in any country AOL provides services. This is mandatory for people who travel a lot, businessmen, etc. Otherwise you can't get your email, and you can't live anymore if you're addicted!

Hi Barney & all -
I tend to take people at face value on the forum unless it becomes obvious that that is not true. This usually works pretty well, honestly. I don't have any real doubts about Rob - in fact, I think he probably DID get the message to stay off the forum (it reminds me of what happened to the original premie.org site a while back, to tell you the truth).

BTW, Rob said he lived in Boca Raton, Florida but was originally from Scotland. He also said he used a proxy server. If he was told to stay off the site, I can understand why he cancelled his e-mail, since he had given it to several people here.

Take care,

Who knows? Most premies who show up here, other than CHP and CD, are incredibily paranoid about revealing their identities. And I don't think it's because they fear ex-premies. It's premies and teh organization that they are worried about, in my opinion. I'm sure Rob was no different.

2. Where was he from? Didn't he allude Australia? I thought I also heard Florida.

I saw him mention Scotland. Maybe he was a transplanted Scot living in Florida.

3. Was he a premie plant?

I don't think so. I doubt there are 'premie plants' in any organized sense. I do believe that individual premies take on guises to try to make some point or another, but in both cases they fail miserably and tend to get caught in their own web of trying to sound 'reasonable.' It falls apart really quickly, as Rob demonstrated.

Does anyone know if America On Line (AOL) provides service outside of North America (related to Question #2.)

Yes. I think they are worldwide and getting bigger all the time.

Hi Fred,

Rob first posted (as far as I know) here as 'The Watcher' in a thread dealing with depression or treatment. I'm not certain which one of us ladies was depressed at the time;-). I am certain I was in on the thread and Gail perhaps. He wove his way in via the gals.

After that he dropped 'The Watcher' and 'the guys' of course taking their cue, began questioning him. He tried, almost successful, to portray himself as a compassionate, carrying, blah, blah, blah.....

He slipped up in three or four 'reactive posts'. He was quick on the recovery of his fumbles. For the ladies he was a 'mysterious Scots man' and for the gents 'a fine, burly, liquor swilling man fond of a lap dance now and then'. But, being politically correct you can reverse the last sentence if appropriate;-o

So, look for 'The Watcher'.

Subject: Creating your own agya
Message:
I though Rob's post captured something of what happened a lot in the premie world.

Someone hears something they are sure is correct and pass it on as agya.

Someone interprets something they have heard and pass it along as agya.

This type of 'agya' was hard to resist and hard to follow. It tended to create a kind of closing in of the world. I.e 'It could be right - and I want to do the right thing - so I'd better give it a go' so a whole host of meaningless rules became born and sometimes were never laid to rest - until and unless a person leaves the premie world.

I am as aware as many of you about my own contribution to this process in the past. Oddly enough I am curious in a perverse way about the 'truth' or otherwise of Rob's assertion. Ethically I think it is quite bizarre if Rob is in any way correct. I think some of my response is because it is the closest I have been to Maharaji for many years. (The notion of receiving agya over the internet). Which is pretty odd, getting that feeling on the ex-premie forum.

Cheers for now

Thus his servants, his 'full-time' instructors, his devoted organizations, etc.

I guess this is the source of all this phenomenon. It doesn't make any sense any other way.

« …. But then comes service, because there’s satsang, service and meditation. That’s meditation, and then comes service. Now what is the part ? Why do we even need to do service ? I mean, where does service fit in ? And it’s very fine. It’s very beautiful, but very fine. Because the whole idea, the whole basis, is on surrender. And if we really and truly surrender ourselves, then what do we become ? We become a servant. And it’s not a servant of Mr Joe Blow ; but it’s servant of Lord, servant of Almighty. If we surrender ourselves, then we become servant, and when we become servant, then we can do service. And if we have realized, it just all fits, see ? »

M never changed his line since the beginning. He doesn't say this this way in front of everybody anymore, that's all. But this is still the feeling you get in the organizors meeting he has once or twice a year.

Subject: Your Privacy is Respected
Message:
Orlando,

Like you I am always concerned about privacy on the Internet. Even with years and years of computer experience I don't know everything about security and privacy, but I do know that there is very little that anyone can know about me.

However, what I can tell you is that we really have no way of knowing who anybody is on the Internet and especially here at Ex-Premie.Org. At best, if your Internet Service Provider (ISP) is in some small town it might be assumed that you live within calling range of it. If your ISP is America Online (AOL) or one of the big providers there is very little to assume.

The only way to find out who somebody is would be in the event of a major crime and the FBI became involved. For example, in the Melissa email virus case a few months ago the FBI traced the introduction of the virus onto the net down to the phone line that was used.

As for verifying Rob's message there is really no way. The only way to even come close to really knowing whom you are dealing with is through the use of Secured Certificates (used in online banking and webstores) and/or Digitally Signed and Encrypted email. Other than that the Internet is really based on faith and the caveat is always buyer beware.

Again, there is really very, very little we know about anyone posting on the Forum and privacy for everyone is always given the utmost respect. Just like you, I don't want anyone to know who I really am. I don't want problems and you don't want problems. If you want to see trouble then check out the newsgroup alt.religion.scientology. That is one ugly scene that includes violence.

I hope and believe that none of us here at Ex-Premie.Org wants to go there. The official Ex-Premie.Org policy is that we do not accept or condone violence or any illegal activities! And any such posting on the Forum is reason for immediate and permanent removal.

Remember, my butt is on the line here.

Things to protect your privacy:

1. Don't give out your email address. Use a HotMail address if you need to provide an email address.

2. Don't give out your home address or phone number.

3. Don't reveal too many details about yourself.

Thanks

Thanks Barney,
my comment about confidentiality was not related to your work or Brian's. I KNOW you guys always respected everyone's privacy. But unfortunately, you do not control what everyone else does on this site. Here are 3 different incidents that occured here quite recently:
* Gail had promised Rob, BY E MAIL, that she would totally respect confidentiality if he would give here some info on how to get in a program. He gave her that info and she repeated the whole e-mail on this site. i consider this a betrayal of trust. It is after this incident, by the way, that Rob stopped posting.

*someone posted on CD's site, which is not secure. someone HERE did the research on the person's server, and POSTED IT HERE

* MaryM suggested to me that she would direct the FBI to me in the investigation of a missing person . This is when I decided i would stop posting here. I might be paranoid, but i have no way of knowing what are anyone's intention here.

I'm sure you saw it. How ridiculous! It reads like a joke and you know it. There is nothing particularly secretive about his lastt e-mail. Note that I did not reveal his earlier stuff which was grounded in some kind of reality.

Of course, as he stated, he was totally joking about the last line. The thing I'm surprised about is that he wasn't wondering about the paranoia himself.

Hi Orlando,

You just cleared up an issue I was wondering about... why you left. I thought it was my gooey, smegma line!

I did not suggest that I was going to send the FBI to you regarding a missing person. If you go back over the threads you will find that was when Commish was trying to track down a missing person. I believe Jim, yourself, and I got into a discussion on who Commish is. And being a stream of consciousness thinker... I started to wonder what DLM did with dead, pauper, ashram premies bodies if they died doing service to Maharaji formerly known as The Lord of The Universe. Never did get an answer on that.

So rest easy Orlando.

I have not contacted the FBI concerning the missing person/premie Commish was trying to track down.

On the other hand, I can't guarantee that Commish wasn't watching the exchanges.... who knows? Maybe he contacted the CIA, FBI, OSHA, JCAHO, HTTP, URL, YMCA, DECA, DUO, EV, DOW, DLM, VI, UN, G16......... and watch out for those 'Ghillies'.

Try watching emoticons after sentences. These require a bit of discernment but hey, it ain't pig latin!

You and I and any intelligent premie know how to get in a program when you're not registered. Rob's advice was totally phoney, and everybody knows it, you included.

I'll tell you what everybody knows: you need at least a friend in the place, who's registered. He'll get in, and then go back outside with somebody else's pass to let you in with that other pass (if there is a pass system).
If no pass is needed, then he'll find where empty seats are, give you their location and/or # if they're using numbers, and then go out, let you know, and enter again with you.

Simple, and it usually works.

Now there may be ushers in each row checking who is who with their big lists. If you enter at the last minute, or 5 minutes before, they won't risk making trouble taking you out of your seat. Just say it's yours, that you've exchanged it with the other person seated there because she couldn't see or hear well. That's it.

Message:
Hi Orlando,

I misread your description of yourself ('ex-poster premie') and thought for moment you had written 'ex-premie poster'. That'll be the day, I guess. I am sure you will be very welcome when the penny finally drops...

I am surprised you are so keen on certainties when you also still follow Marge Rawat - a man about whose past and present you either know or care very little.

However, there is a very good scientific method you can use when you cannot be 100% certain of a fact, and that is to use probabilities. Eliminate the most unlikely explanations by testing the logical inferences that you would have to draw from them.

For instance, was Rob even a premie in the first place?

Well if he wasn't it is difficult to think of a reason why anyone using that name would have engaged quite so vigorously in the discussions here over the past month. Not even an undercover ex would want to publish travel and ticketing details for premies travelling to Montreal.

Was that the real Rob posting the 'exit the site' message?

If it wasn't, the original Rob would have shown up by now with a disclaimer.

Did his facts really come 'from the top?'

Well, you can be sure that by now other well-placed forum regulars like CD will have checked with their own contacts, and if Maharaji hadn't issued the message would have posted something in denial (or in de Ganges '72). A hoax could never prompt the mass exodus we have just witnessed. Why don't you check out the facts, Orlando? - assuming there is somebody out there you do trust.

If M wanted premies to stop posting, how else would he do it?

The effect of expressing his wishes via the communities, the web, or at a live event would be to attract attention to ex-premie.org - something he cannot afford to risk because of the danger of either premies with doubts or new aspirants discovering this site for the first time. And believe me, if they heard any kind of 'stay away' message, their first response would be to check us out pretty damn pronto ('there's no smoke without fire...' ), imagining facts even more damning than anything that even appears here. I mean, there would have to be, wouldn't there? There's no way the Lord they know and love would otherwise want to stifle free expression or rational debate...

So the most effective means of damage limitation, at least in the short-term, would be to use this forum so that only premies already reading or posting will see it. In the long term, however, the damage caused from the simple truths expressed here will be irreparable. The cult is already doomed, IMO.

If Maharaji is telling people to stay away from this site, he is even more ignorant than I thought. If you tell people to stay away from something, many will immediately go there to see what it's all about.

There are a few 'hardcore' types who might feel they would turn into a pillar of salt if they disobey M's wishes, and would stay away completely, but most wouldn't feel that way. The only thing that kind of 'agya' would do is maybe reduce the number of premies who would POST on the forum, not the number who READ the forum. That's because premies would be more paranoid than they already are that someone within the cult will find out it is they who are posting and they will be looked down on by other cultists and there is a fear it would eventually get back to BM himself.

This is how the premie world works. You don't want to get on the shitlist in the organization, otherwise whatever status you have is diminished. You might not get good 'service' or a good seat anymore. You might not be thought of as an unstanding premie in the cult world. This group peer pressure is the most powerful element. I think most premies know that M himself couldn't give a rat's ass what most premies do, what they experience, or whether they are happy or not, as long as they continue to give money.

Over on Maharaji Enjoying His Life on the Montreal link under the What's New comes this quote:

He said that the simplicity we need is within us and is not to be found in the situations of our lives, which can be so complicated.

Ok, sure, yeah, yeah. Maybe there's some validity in this, but I see the same old, same old from Maharaji that is an effort to stifle people's determination regarding their own efforts in steering the course of their lives. Of course, bad things happen to good people and blah, blah, blah.

Yes, the damn message remains the same after 28 years of Maharaji's masquerade as Lord of the Universe: Your lives don't mean shit.

Interesting to note that Maharaji is quite particular about his own personal situation where everything, but everything MUST be perfect and his ludicrous lifestyle is maintained and sustained by dozens and dozens of real people waiting hand and foot on him and by thousands of other suckers sending him their money.

God, I hate going to ELK and any of Maharaji's sites. It's all so lame and mindless (the ultimate goal!)

Subject: An article from last year
Message:
This article appeared in the Daily Mail (a British daily) on Tuesday July 14th 1998. Funnily enough it is the same paper that Jonathan Cainer does star signs for.

Headline: 25 years ago a spiritual leader addressed a mass gathering of his followers on the subject of …er ice cream. MONICA PORTER recalls that tubby Lord of the Universe, Maharaji.

The Guru Maharaji had a thoughtful message for his hordes of devotees gathered at the Divine Light festival at Alexandra Palace, North London.

He told them:'You can go to dozens of ice cream parlours and choose from hundreds of varieties, but you must find the one that suits you best. It's the same with religion'.

The ice-cream analogy was appropriate for the guru, a fat 17-year-old who clearly gorged himself on the stuff.

Followers were forbidden to smoke, drink, use drugs or have sex. They were however, allowed to donate money to his sect.

There were collection boxes all over Ally Pally, and for those who had come from abroad, money changing facilities were thoughtfully provided. The souvenir did a roaring trade in brass-coloured models of the guru: a snip at 85p.

Many followers gave al their spare money to the Divine Light organisation so it could spread the message of peace, refusing t o believe they were merely subsidising their leader, who had a vast estate in California next door to Paul Getty, and a fleet of luxury cars.

Joe, 19, from Dublin, donated up to £3 a week, He said:'I've given up smoking pot and drinking - I'd never have done that for Jesus'.
Former teacher Lizzie Conquest, 26, gave up sex: 'I don't have sexual relationships. They take down my level of consciousness and drag me away from God'.

The Indian-based sect had 6000 members in Britain at that time, for whom Maharaji was 'Lord of the Universe'. But in 1975, his angry mother Mataji- the movement's ultimate authority-tried to oust him for ultimate materialism and 'encouraging his devotees to eat meat, drink alcohol and have sex'. Oh dear,

He remained in power, however, and went on to get even richer and fatter. But he no longer comes to Britain. The Divine Light Mission here has been superseded by a slew of other loony cults.

We would like to correct the false impression given of Maharaji in CJ Stone's article (When Spirituality Is A Flash In The Pan, December 3). Away from the glare of publicity he attracted in the early Seventies, Maharaji is still travelling the world, speaking and teaching on the subject of an inner experience and contentment. People of every race, religion and nationality in over 90 countries testify to the benefits of his teaching have conferred.

There has never been any question raised about his personal integrity and behaviour and it is scurrilous for CJ Stone to cast such totally unfounded aspersions. Maharaji never makes, and has never made, any charge for what he has to offer.

Glen is responding to a December 3, 1994 article by CJ Stone in the Guardian, which I couldn't find on Nexus.

Message:
Surely there must be some way we can confirm Rob's report. If Maharaji really did order his mind slaves to stay off this site he'd want the word to get out in no uncertain terms, don't you think? Does anyone know any premies who'd be willing to seek some confirmation about this?

I think it'd be really great to post Maharaji's warning right up front so there's no misunderstanding. Personally, while it's fun arguing with these flat-earthers I wouldn't mind that much if the fun stopped and we moved on -- sorry, I moved on to more measured discourse and avoided this long embroilments. Trtuh is, I just get completely fascinated by the premie evasions. Not from dummies like William or Shp so much. And certainly not from ciphers like Cat. He does nothing for me. But otherwise intelligent creeps like Sandra and Rob always capture my interest. I like watching people walk tightropes I guess.

So, anyway, if M stops these guys from playing this game it wouldn't be such a bad thing. We could all still do what we're doing otherwise, debrief, fill in the picture, laugh at it and ourselves, philosophize together, salve a few wounds such as they are. And, of course, keep a light in the window for any new refugees from Maharaji's World.

But how can we confirm this anyway? Ideas?

I truly hope that the premie evaluating and sorting the loot had a smidgen of empathy in their heart and didn't throw it away. Perchance there is a lass out there somewhere whose 'mama' could only afford the bracelet at a pawnshop and that little girl treasured her charm bracelet.

Some premies, and certainly, Maharaji just don't have the ability to understand why certain items are symbolic of a time prior to our 'Lives Being Interrupted' by EV/DLM.

And this was in Amherst, which was NOT my first darshan line. What I gave was a small stuffed animal which had been very important to me as a child. Trash can material for sure.

As stupid as it sounds, I had no idea until I started reading the forum archives that darshan lines were used for fund-raising (I missed the envelope era). When I heard about this, I felt really stupid and also hurt. Most of the premies I knew were young and broke and spent hours trying to think of a significant item, or choosing a perfect piece of fruit, to give to Maharaji during darshan. I do understand that it's the 'spirit' of giving that was supposed to count, but I also think people should have been made aware that their non-valuable gifts were going to be thrown in the trash.

Damn, they didn't even give the food items (fruit, etc) or the usable non-edible stuff to people that could have used them. Yup, this is a humanitarian venture, all right.

I was at Amherst, too. I couldn't believe all the schlock dealers that were present, even back then! Remember the 'bazaar' area that was right in between the auditorium where Krishna lila was playing and the grounds where M gave satsang? You had to walk right thru it....... Some might call that 'strategic placement' of retail goods, no?

I recall that a lot of the vendors were simply private persons. In fact, I knew a few personally.

I believe it was a number of years later that Maharaji and Company put an end to it because it either looked tacky or wsa cutting into their sales. However, I'm not sure that I really recall seeing a massive onsite trinket sales effort by the official organization until the '90s where it was and is quite gross with items priced sky high!

I talked them out of it but there was handmade necklaces with pics of M somehow worked into the design but better than all that pricy stuff they have now! So money grubbing.

I know sometimes Durga Ji would say these kinds of things and she really did sound and look sincere, so I guess it helped us all to buy into it. It was crazy stuff to believe but all the sincerity around M was his best advertisement. He is the rotten part of the whole trip!!

In case your monitors missed it, I thought I'd take the liberty of sending you this post I read on the Ex-Premie forum:

I am very glad to have found this site. A new friend had been slowly introducing me to Maharaji stuff. I liked what he shared and wasn't aware of what marharaji's really like. He gave me a video and I liked that too. He then offered me a second video and was sharing more stuff with me when I found this site on-line.

I have read almost all the stories on the journey page, have been reading the nuts & bolts page and this forum and thanks to you all, have been able to make an INFORMED choice, based on all this info on here as to whether or not I wish to join this cult. I will not be joining, that's for sure.

I cannot thank you all enough for sharing your hearts and pain, stories and info as it's really helped me and I am sure will help others.

Needless to say, I will not be spending anything money/time/spirutal-quest wise on the man behind this most heinous of deceptions!

To the proprietors of this forum and to all you brave people who had the guts to stand up and speak out, thank you!

This declaration has been posted on the Ex site, for all of us to see. To me, it indicates that paranoia has taken the front seat in M's mind, and he doesn't want the premies exposed to this heresy & his 'enemies'. I'll tell you, it was paranoia just like this that sent Jim Jones and Peoples Temple down the path to their ultimate end.

Rob has been posting here for a month or so. He has identified himself as a premie and has suggested that he might be close to Raja Ji. This may be incorrect, but it was implied in some way. If the message Rob posted came from a source other than that from which Rob has posted, I think that Barney would have called him on it. Being skeptical about these things is fine with me, William. Discussion amongst us about why M might want to deter premies from reading the posts on this site is a very fruitful enterprise, even without his condemnation.

But it does make sense dear, if you want them to make an informed decission. Let it all hang out and let the person make up their own mind, not only hear one side of the story only to find out later, that they didn't know this or that and that it makes a difference.

Message:
William,

The post from Rob in question is from the same Rob that was posting all day and for a few days prior. The posts all read like Rob's writings. It's fairly safe to assume that it was, indeed, Rob.

Can you do us a favor and contact your Community Coordinator and ask them whether they've heard anything at all about whether premies should be reading and posting here at Ex-Premie.Org?

Sincerely, if I was still a premie I would want to know this and I would probably respect those wishes. I may not respect Maharaji, but I have some respect for whatever relationship that a premie has with Maharaji because that's their business. And having been a premie for a long time I understand that.

Finally, I am considering posting a message to premies that Maharaji has suggested that they don't hang around Ex-Premie.Org if and only if I can somehow get this officially verified. Again, I would like to give premies fair warning if this is true. Ex-Premie.Org is not intended to be a sneaky trap. We really want everything to be out in the open and as fact based as possible under the circumstances. Deception is not very effective to change people's ideas because sooner or later the deception becomes apparent.

Thanks

You know what actually did throw me from the fence I was sitting on and pissed me off immensely?

When Marc Levitte told me that m doesn't want people on the net, specially here! I told him that m, him or EV had nothing do with my private life, that I can talk and meet anybody I like wherever I want to. My life is my life, and I don't need any authority to tell me what to do with it. That's not m's or EV's or Marc Levitte's job.

I was really pissed off. And I still am when I think of this.

I guess that kind of message is lethal for people having 'doubts'...

M really has NO understanding of human beings, no love and compassion for those who've suffered in his cult.

You are confused, A Premie, Mahararji clearly said, after that premie murdered a couple of ashram sisters in Florida, that he doesn't give 'inner agya' anymore, and that includes dreams.

But if Rob is correct, we now His agya and I will depart and never, ever, even peek at this website, because I do not want to cross in any way my lord and master, who has given me that gift of this life and of that experience of that love, that peace, that truth, which is that breath, which is that life for which we have that gratitude to Maharaji. I am so grateful also to have his agya, because I am so confused I don't know what is good for me and am nothing more than the scum that forms on the filtering ponds at sewage treatment plants.

Subject: Some satsang for PWK
Message:
Looking for that old ashram meeting satsang in my pile of AIID, some quotes I’ve just digged out :

« And so premies, the Perfect Master comes, and he comes in the human body. I mean, he doesn’t have to. All he has to do is have a body that’s as huge as the world – and even bigger, as the universe – and then pick up the whole world on his little finger and say, ‘You guys want to live, or should I blow you away ?’ He could do that, because we call him Almighty. And if we call him Almighty, it’s a jazz for him to do this. It wouldn’t take him anything. Because he’s perfect. And he could just very well do that and say, ‘Look. If you don’t realize this Knowledge, all I’m going to do is – boomp ! – and you are never going to know what hit you’. But he doesn’t say that.

Why? He bears up with everything in this world. Look at us humans; look at the people of this world. Every time he comes, they say, ‘Forget it, he is not the one; he can’t be the one. He doesn’t have Knowledge. This is some crazy thing.’ And I mean, if really this ever happened, that the Almighty, the All Perfect, just picked up the whole world in his hand and said, ‘Should I kick you?’….
He doesn’t have to go to any person and say, ‘Should I kick you ?’ If he says, ‘Should I kick your world ?’ you’d never know what hit you, and you are going to fly somewhere else. But he doesn’t. And it’s really beautiful.

Excerpt of Guru Maharaj Ji’s Satsang, at the Guru Puja Festival, Caracas, Venezuela, August 4, 1973. In « Elan Vital », published by Divine Light Mission, Denver, Colorado. Volume II Issue 2, Summer 1978

Some more rotting vegetable satsang :

« …if we really don’t realize the necessity of knowledge in our life, then we are not going to even try. We’re not even going to try to gain that experience that Knowledge has to give us. That use becomes obsolete. That Knowledge itself then starts becoming obsolete in our life.
And then, as you must have heard in my satsang, vegetable are very nice things. We eat them every day. But if you bring tons and tons of vegetables in your house and don’t eat them, they will rot. And when they rot, they won’t be very healthy, and they will just smell bad.
And Knowledge is the same way. It’s beautiful. But you have to utilize it. If you let it sit, it’s just going to start deteriorating inside of you. It’s like, we have something so precious, and we are not using it. And that experience is just going to start becoming worse and worse and worse.
..

Excerpt of Guru Maharaj Ji’s Satsang in Lisbon, Portugal, may 14, 1976. In « Elan Vital », published by Divine Light Mission, Denver, Colorado. Volume II Issue 2, Summer 1978

Some service satsang :

« …. But then comes service, because there’s satsang, service and meditation. That’s meditation, and then comes service. Now what is the part ? Why do we even need to do service ? I mean, where does service fit in ? And it’s very fine. It’s very beautiful, but very fine. Because the whole idea, the whole basis, is on surrender. And if we really and truly surrender ourselves, then what do we become ? We become a servant. And it’s not a servant of Mr Joe Blow ; but it’s servant of Lord, servant of Almighty. If we surrender ourselves, then we become servant, and when we become servant, then we can do service. And if we have realized, it just all fits, see ?

Excerpt of Guru Maharaj Ji’s Satsang in Lisbon, Portugal, may 14, 1976. In « Elan Vital », published by Divine Light Mission, Denver, Colorado. Volume II Issue 2, Summer 1978

Some guru worship satsang :

« So enjoy the festival. Realize. And this is Guru Puja festival, and this is just an idea of a devotee. This is just a dream of a devotee. Really this is a dream, because how can you come up to Guru Maharaj Ji and say, ‘Thank you ?’ Because how can you ever thank him with just saying ‘Thank you’, or ‘Gracias’, or ‘Danyabad’, or any word you want to use ? You cannot.
And it’s a prayer you pray. It’s Guru Puja Festival, when you worship your Guru Maharaj Ji, when you understand, when you get to be….and it’s one more thing, one more occasion, where premies can be close to Guru Maharaj Ji. Because how can you worship the Almighty ? But it’s one more thing, one more festival …..
.So be there, and realize, and be one with the great harmony and bliss. And of course there is going to be a darshan program where everybody will be able to come and do pranam, and have Holy Breath. Premies who haven’t had Holy Breath, they will be able to have Holy Breath….

Wasn't the ashram meeting cancelled in 79 because of the thunderstorm which ripped the roof off the stage while the ashram premies were sitting waiting for his divineness to appear?

It was a cracker of a thunderstorm though! I was there with my wife, in this cheap tent we'd bought for the occasion. We packed everything into our suitcase, wrapped that is a big plastic bag, and cowered in the tent expecting it to fly away at any moment. It didn't and I've still got, and occasionally use, the same tent. After the storm, many other tents were demolished.

Ah, nostalgia's not what it used to be.

And then Jonestown!

I did a slight fade from the cult, but kind of hung around when it was easy and convenient.

Message:
To all the premies that are no longer allowed by their 'lord and massa' to post here: I have one thing to say; YOU WERE RIGHT, there is NO LOVE HERE!

- There is no love for frauds
- There is no love for LIES
- There is no love for LIARS
- There is no love for deceit
- There is no love for misrepresentation
- There is no love of deception
- There is no love of duplicity
- There is no love for totally self-seeking enterprise disguised as something humanitarian (aka EV/DLM)
- There is no love for human bondage (aka cult membership)
- There is no love for greed (aka Mahamartini, himself)

Get the picture? How many more ways does it need to be said. There is ample proof that each of these applies to M and his whole stinking organization.

Yes, dear premies, dump these traits that M seems to hold so dear to his heart and you will find all the love that you need right at your own doorstep. You won't need to come here to find it, but you will be welcome, nonetheless.

But will you? I'm pragmatic, so you can guess what I think. No, you will follow every order that issues from your non-leader, non-god, non-perfeck-massa's mouth and scurry along like good little robots. Tell me again, how can a non-god have this effect on you?
