OH, THESE FRAUDULENT GURUS, BABAS, MATAS ET AL !
Oh, the pain to view these fraudulent Gurus on YouTube, the way they dupe the gullible masses ! Ramakrishna Mission remains my lifeline in this world of spiritual fraudulence. Of course, there are other authentic, spiritually worthy organisations and individuals as well but they are few and far between.
In this Guru business that knows not business cycles seemingly, wickedness, cunning and deception are at their worst and the suffering masses, seeking quick solace for their worldly griefs, become easy victims of these masters of mass psychology. There is no spirituality involved, mere manipulation of people's weaknesses using ingenious methods such as manifestation of ash, ring, necklace, or giving the hug to wring out in a single contact the pain of the devotee, so-to-say, or, even more cleverly, talking one's way in with intellectual gibberish couched in a manner as to appear wise beyond bounds, or engaging in respiratory gas exchange going by the name of 'kriya', 'yoga' and company, all deliberated well with close confidantes in cooperative conspiracy against the pristine traditions of the Sanatan Dharma and the masses of gullible fools waiting anxiously to gobble up such trash going by the name of choice religious package.
As I contemplate all this, I fill up with abhorrence at these charlatans and pity the public that they are so weak, so meek, so defenceless that they know not how to sift the grain from the chaff, how to decipher the divinity within themselves, how best to approach the illumined ones in real and not these imitations of the sages, offering quick nirvana. It then seems that the time for the return of Ramakrishna is at hand, for who else can establish dharma yet again save the Master and his disciples, who else can clear the path for the resurrection of fallen humanity?
Shame, indeed, that we who so clamour the glory of our spiritual traditions allow thus the very same to sink to such abysmal levels that it calls upon the Lord of the universe to resettle things to their pristine order !
May peace prevail ! May order ensue ! May Sanskrit proliferate so that superstition is eradicated and the glory of the dharma shines in its truest essence !
May it please the Lord to guide us all unto truth and light !
