	Hidden Radhasoami Gurus radhasoami
		Treasure Beyond Measure clearly indicates that Charan Singh made vigorous early efforts to evade his fate (becoming the Guru), finally concluding that he had no choice but to accept the guruship.
		When Charan Singh and his party returned from the satsang, a Dera official told her that he had seen her come with Maharaj Ji but had not seen her at the satsang.
		Kirpal Singh then describes the event that he would later declare was integral to the succession process: the transmission of "the life impulse" from the eyes of the Living Guru to his successor.

		Charan Singh's trip was even better received than Kirpal Singh's, with the Beas guru attracting consistently larger numbers in his audience.
		Charan Singh himself was well aware of this and commented that perhaps the youth were revolting against the hypocrisies of materialism and dogmatism.
		Indeed, Charan Singh's one and only impromptu television interview on May 28, 1964 with a news reporter in Minneapolis, Minnesota, caused a bit of a stir because it was so unusual.

	La lettre de G Whittaker à R Sutton
		(Charan Singh spoke at Chelsea Town Hall in early 1970, a meeting attended by our Charananand and some early pwk's, and this was the first occasion Venetia Stanley-Smith met Charananand, whom she claimed far outshone the guru).
		Sawan Singh was succeeded by, amongst five claimants, Kirpal Singh (48-74) - I shall mention something called the 'Kirpal Statistic' later - and simultaneously by one Jagat Singh who led to a famous 'master' Charan Singh (51-90).
		Of those succeeding in Agra, the main successor, seemingly appointed by the deceased master himself, was one Saligram, 1878-1898, who built up the movement as a large organisation.

		Not because of R.S. Beas (I don't consider myself a follower of a town or a group; I am a follower of Charan Singh--that's my focus), not because it is too close to my guru or his group.
		In the RADHASOAMI piece, lest you forget, I was writing about my own tradition and for that reason expressly pointed out my association with Charan Singh.
		I am the guy who wrote a very nice and positive book on Baba Faqir Chand, a guru who point blank contradicts my own guru and who is at the oppposite end (philosophically speaking) of Radhasoami Satsang Beas.

	Faqir Chand
		I have personally seen thousands of people file directly in front of Charan Singh and in a matter of a few seconds he turns his head to the left or to the right, indicating whether the seeker was accepted or rejected for Nam-Dan.
		Another example of extraordinary manifestations which go beyond Faqir Chand's hypothesis of unknowingness comes from Baba Jaimal Singh, the first guru of the Beas satsang and a personal disciple of the founder of Radhasoami, Shiv Dayal Singh.
		It includes precise details about how to meditate and withdraw one's consciousness from the physical body by means of a three-fold method: simran (repetition of holy name(s)), dhyan (contemplation of the inner light or the guru's form within); and bhajan (listening to the divine sound current).

	INTRODUCTION
		In fact, except for Maharaj Charan Singh, the Satguru at Beas from 1951 to 1990, Sawan Singh attracted the largest following of any shabd yoga master in history, initiating more than 125,000 people into the mystic practice.
		The turning point in Sawan Singh's life came when he met his spiritual guru, Baba Jaimal Singh, and took initiation under him in the path of surat shabd yoga (union of the soul with the divine inner sound).
		He was a native of Sach Khand, the Eternal Realm of Truth, a saint who showed humanity that their origin was not of dust but of light-an unquenchable flame that burns in every living being for that alone which is everlasting.

	Amrit
		Historically, amrit in the Sikh tradition refers to the baptismal water Guru Gobind Singh crated for the initiatory rites promugated in supersession of charan amrit at the time of the creation of the Khalsa brotherhood.
		Amrit, historically, therefore, in the Sikh tradition with its shifting of emphasis from charan (foot) to double edged dagger or Khanda, signifies a new kind of metamorphism, transforming a Sikh into Singh - a martial being - deified as Saint-solider enjoined to serve One and All.
		According to Hindu mythology, amrit was extracted by the gods by churning the ocean with the assistance of the demons and it was by drinking it that the gods became immortal.

		That is, office empowered leaders like Jagat Singh and Charan Singh employed ideological discourse that emphasized the impersonal nature of their appointment, whereas personal charismatics like Kirpal Singh utilized discourse which stressed the inward, experiential basis of their mastership.
		Unlike official empowerment, personal charismatic claims operate on the staid belief that it is the person not the position which matters in the guru-disciple relationship.
		Office empowered gurus, as we have seen, already have at their disposal what the merely personal charismatic does not: an established network of followers and properties which buttress the very idea and position of the Satguru.

	Hola Mohalla
		The military exercise, which was personally supervised by the guru, was carried out on the bed of the River Charan Ganga with the famous Hindu temple of Mata Naina Devi in the Shivaliks as the backdrop.
		Coinciding with Holi, the festival of colour, it reminds the people about the tradition of meaningful festivity, and displays the valour inculcated in the Sikh community by Guru Gobind Singh, who took to armed struggle against tyranny.
		The foothills of the Shivaliks in Ropar district of Punjab's north-eastern region, especially around the historic townships of Anandpur Sahib and Kiratpur Sahib, have, since 1701, been playing host to Hola Mohalla.

		After the satsang, Maharaj Ji proceeded to the langar, a vast kitchen where sevadars (volunteer workers) were preparing food for the pilgrims.
		As I approached the Dera gates, I saw in the foreground the large exquisite Satsang Ghar, a beautiful meeting hall in the center of the colony which is visible for miles, its white domes topped with shimmering gold.

		It was here that he, along with Guru Pankaj Charan, Odissi scholar Dhirendranath Patnaik and a few other exponents, formed the 'Jayantika' group, which worked hard for five years in the late 1950's for codification of the grammar of Odissi dance.
		Guru Kelucharan, now regarded as a teacher in Odissi, joined the Kala Vikas Kendra of Cuttack in 1953, the state's first college of dance and music, which also added a course in Odissi in its curriculum.

	Gateway to Sikhism: Famous Sikhs:Bhai Vir Singh
		Apart from his sustained involvement in literary and scholarly pursuits, mainly as a Braj poet, Punjabi prose-writer, musicologist, prosodist and lexicographer, Dr Charan Singh took active interest in the affairs of the Sikh community, then experiencing a new urge for restoration as well as for change.
		He revised and enlarged Giani Hazara Singh's dictionary, Sri Guru Granth Kosh, originally published in 1898.
		As a schoolboy, Bhai Vir Singh used to spend a great deal of his time in the company of Giani Hazara Singh under whose guidance he not only learnt the classical and neo-classical languages, Sanskrit, Persian and Braj, but also received grounding, both theoretical and practical, in the science of Sikh exegesis.
