SOI has acknowledged authenticity by claiming copyright for the many documents that have been removed on this forum, thus proving the assertions made here.
I got flak on and off the forum for posting these documents many years ago and many people tried to take them down.
Until recently, they could deny that the documents were authentic. They remained on this forum for over 6 years. The cult not only shut down the account of the photo sharing site, they also claimed copyright on several photos that did not belong to them. So they are also thieves.
Because of alleged death threats and other repercussions, many people are afraid to identify themselves by challenging copyright ownership of certain photos. This is very serious. It appears to me that Butler followers will do anything to protect their guru, believing him to be as good as G0d, including possible hacking computers and websites.

Under fair use laws I will be reposting parts of these documents for critical review. These documents prove many of the assertions made on this forum, particularly by
flash and the blog
flashlightonroaches Exposing the Cult Leader Chris Butler aka Jagad Guru. It is not a matter of rumor or speculation.
You will find the same names, the usual suspects all throughout these documents as has been uncovered in flash's research.
These documents were procured many years ago from an initiated devotee who had access to the inner memos of the cult around 1986-1990. Followers were told to burn these documents, but this particular follower was awake enough to realize their value in exposing Butler one day. That day came when someone started this thread on the Cult Education Institute forum.
By claiming copyright and threatening lawsuits, the cult does not want the public to see their guru for what he is; a petulant, materialistic, egotistical little dictator.

The following document is one page of a 55 page memo from 1987. It starts off as a crybaby letter to his disciples all around the world complaining about how poorly his Honolulu devotees were treating him.
Butler's M.O. was to fire and rehire people on a constant basis for even the slightest infractions. He would terrify people with the threat that their very spiritual lives were in danger. He would preach to them that when he was displeased, G0d is displeased. The greatest threat to a follower was to be fired and told that he would not be able to see or serve Butler any more. As an outsider, you may think that this is no big deal or liken it to being fired from a regular job, but it is not. Followers feel as if they are dead and doomed to hell. They have to humiliate themselves by pleading, crying, wearing paper bags on their heads, fasting, bearing psychological abuse, publicly apologizeing, and/or titheing their way back to Butler.
This document mentions Mike Gabbard (Krishna Katha das) who was being fired. It proves how deep into the cult he has been as far back as 1987. Mike Gabbard was in charge of Butler's Personal Affairs at the time.
The writer goes on for 55 pages about all of the terrible ways Butler was being mistreated during his move from Hawaii to the Sedona, Arizona area. It includes blaming disciples for items stolen and not replaced, for not plugging in his lamps or setting up his television, etc. As you read the documents, you will see a man posing as a guru who takes no responsibility for his own life and miseries. Remember, Butler is using unpaid and unskilled devotee labor.
The following documents will give you a glimse into what it is like to be in this cult and proves that it is a harmful cult. It is also what the Gabbard's are forced to hide on Butler's orders. Which again and again begs the questions, "With whom and to what degree does Tulsi Gabbard owe allegiance?" "Why do you hide your deep connection to Butler?"
