Quoteatheist Presumably, Jagad Guru Chris Butler would get some of the proceeds from this business. Does anyone have any idea what Jagad Guru Chris Butler's cut would be? A good devout cult member would give 50 percent to their guru... Otherwise they would be guilty of working for their own "sense gratification" and these cult members are heavily programmed about this topic.

Yep, it's a tough life being a politician-soldier for g0d! Thanks for the link to the movie called Fitna, Bum ... Here's another full-length documentary on fanatical religious groups (cults) derived from Hinduism and India.

Yes, the level of fanaticism is high within this cult ... probably comparable to some extreme Islamic religious fanatics ~ but hopefully their religious principles of not killing other living entities would over-ride their absurd devotion to their so-called spiritual master.

Hey Vera, Narayan Maharaj passed away just a couple of months ago. I heard that he would initiate anyone and everyone possible, whether they were interested in chanting the names of g0d or whether they were even interested in following the regulative principles or not.

QUESTION: What is it that drives a person to accept C. Butler as their guru and savior? ANSWER: Because it is written in their holy book, the Bhagavad-Gita, that one MUST accept a spiritual master (in order to go back to g0dhead, I suppose). However, I am presently studying a theory which suggests that all the so-called holy books of human civilization have been manipulated and changed ove

Dear Atheist, The Gabbards do indeed seem to be keeping secretive about their true political agenda.

The video about the cupboards cracked me up! It's true though! People within this cult are very indoctrinated to shun or even "hate" other religions, especially some of the so-called new-age beliefs such as "we are all one" or "you are g0d" for example. They seem to have identified more with the right-wing christian type religious thought ~ "g0d hates fa

Yes, that's for sure ... Butler did micro-manage his top followers' lives ... especially the politicians. He probably told Tulsi to join the army and go to Iraq to obtain political favors.
