The Little Piggy Face Of Oneness

File under: Satscams and Gurus Clockin' Dollars

Kingpin delusion dealer Kalki "The Kracki" Bhagavan steps up the supply to his addicts:
Dear Oneness Deeksha Givers,

Namaste!

It gives me utmost joy to inform you of the most recent divine phenomenon that has taken birth here in the Oneness University. This phenomenon, aptly named the ‘Oneness Blessing’ issues forth from the Srimurthi (portrait) of Sri Amma Bhagavan, which is impregnated with their divine consciousness. Sri Amma Bhagavan have now taken a very special sankalpa (intent) that their Srimurthi transfer a powerful blessing to people that would awaken them to Oneness.

In accordance with their divine will, Deeksha givers pray and gently touch the Srimurthi either at the feet or hands of Sri Amma Bhagavan and ask for a ‘Oneness Blessing.’ In most cases the blessing is experienced as powerful electric shocks that almost knock down the person or as strong vibrations flowing through the body. The blessing could also be experienced in several other ways like a physical deeksha process (much the same as what is generally felt after receiving a strong Deeksha). In almost all the cases so far, receiving the ‘Oneness Blessing’ from Sri Amma Bhagavan has immediately produced a shift in consciousness culminating in an altered state that is more or less permanent. Other results include mystical insights and a continuous ongoing Deeksha process within that takes you higher and higher towards love and joy.

We dasas would therefore humbly recommend that all Oneness Deeksha givers receive this great blessing directly from Sri Amma Bhagavan in your own homes daily. The blessing could ideally be taken four times a day i.e. 6:30 a.m., 12:00 noon, 6:30 p.m. and 12:00 midnight. The reason we are fixing up these timings is that when all deeksha givers pray and receive the blessing at the same time in their respective countries, the blessing comes forth very powerfully, since it becomes like a collective phenomenon that is happening at that time. This would also profoundly affect your own countries in a big way. The effects of receiving the ‘Oneness Blessing’ at the same time is clearly seen in the case of Indian Deeksha givers already. In case of being unable to receive the blessing all four times a day, please join whenever possible; at least two times a day.

At these times of the day, you could sit before the portrait of Sri Amma Bhagavan and invoke their divine presence. Having invoked their presence, you could develop a personal communion with them in your hearts and ask Sri Amma Bhagavan to give you the Oneness Blessing and awaken you to Oneness. In case you are experiencing some emotional disturbances some day owing to the charge in your emotions, you could pray that the charge in the emotion be removed and that you are awakened to Oneness.

Having prayed thus, gently touch the feet or the hands of Sri Amma Bhagavan and wait for some time with your hands on the srimurthi for the blessing to flow through (about a minute or more). You could first touch Sri Amma and then move on to touch Sri Bhagavan or vice-versa or you could choose to place your hands on both of their feet/hands simultaneously; please follow whatever comes to you naturally. Having received the blessing thus, you could thank Sri Amma Bhagavan and if possible move into shavasan and relax for some time. This blessing would come forth from all the portraits of Sri Amma Bhagavan, including the Sri Amma Bhagavan medallions/pendants.

We would be very happy to receive a feedback of your experiences with the ‘Oneness Blessing’
Because involving you in giving us feedback strengthens the delusions we are planting in your mind. We'd also be very happy to receive your dollars for our Hollywood feature film studio, err... efforts to spread our love all over the planet.

The Kracki's Oneness Begins To Show Cracks

File under: Satscams and Gurus Clockin' Dollars

The fountain of Kracki seems to be overflowing these last few days. We imagine it’s in response to the shocking defection of Freddy and Madelaine Nielsen, longtime devotees who were very high on the totem pole and promoters of the Bhagavan Kalki's “deeksha” scam in the States for more than 13 years.

The result of the shock seems to be an uptick in Kracki-related propaganda coming from his other big time Western devotees. There’s just so much to love, folks. Let's watch the remaining Western Krackiheads try to retain those devotees at risk for bolting along with Freddy and other prominent devotees:
Dear Friends, this is not a great situation we have here. Freddy and Madelaine have been representing Deeksha, the Oneness Movement and Amma and Bhagavan all over the world. I know a LOT of people who see them as their connection into the world of deeksha. [Ed.note: Hallelujah!] What has occurred here may well undermine a great deal of the work that all of you have done over many years, as it is creating a split in a movement dedicated to Oneness. This is the first thing people comment on as the e mails are flying around now: what kind of Oneness movement is this that cannot resolve its own internal conflicts?
We render the message as: Your work is about to go down the chutes because Freddy split. He’s about to fuck things up big time, people. We’ve got to do something about this.

How about accepting the fact that people are blessed with the discrimination to see what a transparent money grab the whole thing is. The experience being sold as “oneness” is not enlightenment, it’s a trance. Deeksha is an experience container designed to foment this trance and cement it as the exclusive mode of spiritual expression in his satsang. And it comes with the idea that it originates from the supernatural power of the Kracki himself, making it the equivalent of sucking your brain out of your head with a vacuum cleaner and replacing it with Elmer’s Glue.

What does every cult do as it contracts to protect itself? Discredit the defectors, in this case with the neurobunkumry of Christian Optiz:
I specifically asked Pragyanand about the people who are making such impressive claims for their own state: permanent bliss, hundred thousand volts of electricity, hundred thousand orgasms etc. Not ONE of them fitted the criteria of the brain thresholds. In other words, this movement is, at least in the West, represented most loudly by teachers claiming to be in a state that the Oneness movement itself would say they are not in fact in. There are indeed many others who ARE, according to the Oneness University, in such a state, but who claim nothing at all.
Too bad all these states have as much to do with self-realization as our dog’s ass. We don’t even need to mention that Optiz has been debunked by a major university neuroscience researcher several weeks ago here, but we will anyway:
The most questionable aspect… is the author's claim that he has tested alterations in neurotransmitters, hormones, and receptors via electromagnetic signature testing. There is no scientific data to support that this technique is viable. There are other, well established, means of testing changes in neurotransmitters and hormones via blood and saliva testing. There are also newer techniques using magnetic resonance spectroscopy, similar to a MRI, to test alterations in neurotransmitters and receptor turn-over.
And there’s just so much more, folks. William Cooper, Ron Roth, Issac Shapiro are all on a tear to mend the breech. The Kracki just gives and gives and gives… more spiritual mumbo jumbo than a convention of witch doctors in Haiti. This one is definitely developing.

The Bionic Woman Is A Krackhead

File under: Satscams and Gurus to the Stars

We just heard that Lindsay Wagner, a 70s icon with her role as TV's The Bionic Woman (and presently hawking the Sleep Number bed on TV), has turned to the dark side and become a full-blown Krack head. It seems she's been to that Krack den known as "Oneness University" in India a couple of times at least, according to a Guruphiliac discussion group member:
She's attended the Oneness University on a number of occasions, having been told of the organisation in 2002 at the Peace Summit in Geneva. She appears now to have dumped her own charity and is promoting the deeksha gig wherever she can.
Perhaps it's because she thinks she can make more money by selling deeksha:
Lindsay is offering private sessions. (Lindsay’s sessions 1 1/2 hours, $125)
Err... not at those rates she won't.

That's the surprisingly good deal (if you believe Lindsay has anything to offer besides her smile, a few stories about making TV in the 70s and some advice about bedroom furniture) available at the You! Go! Girl! gathering known as Camp Bombshell:
Camp Bombshell is a sanctuary, a safe place where healing occurs, a place where women can unplug and enjoy a community of other women who, just like you, are looking for a time-out, for honest conversation, soul-searching, laughter and bonding. "To be a Bombshell today, is more about being courageous than curvaceous, being Real rather than Ideal".
Too bad deeksha is about as real as Joan Rivers' face. But the money sure is real, just ask the little piggie Kalki "The Kracki" Bhagavan and his barnyard Amma back in India collecting it all.

Catching Up With The Krapki

File under: Gurus Clockin' Dollars and Satscams

There is not a cesspool created in the entire universe that can contain the mountain of shit that is the Kalki Bhagavan's Oneness University website.

His continuously-milked cash cow isn't called deeksha anymore, it's now "Oneness Blessing," and we have never encountered a load of crap that approaches the depths of its explanation:
Oneness Blessing thus given affects a neuro-biological change. There are 16 centres in the brain responsible for definitive experiences like sensory perception, emotions of jealousy, hatred, fear, compassion, love, joy, separation, connectedness, creativity, learning, etc. Oneness Blessing results in the activation of certain centres and the de-activation of certain centres bringing about a shift in the perception and experience of life. The process finally lands the seeker in a permanent, incredible state of consciousness.
The quackery and flimflammery present in this statement has us looking long and hard at a career as crash test dummy. We are beyond flabbergasted and on to an entirely new experience in horror and exasperation.

God help us, please! It is surely a sign of the end times that such utter and completely ridiculous nonsense is accepted as spiritual truth, rather than as what it really is – the lies of a con man riding global idiocy to power, riches, fame and glory.

The Kracki Keeps Up The Dumbing Down

File under: Satscams and Gurus Clockin' Dollars

Do you hear that giant sucking sound? That's the intelligence screaming out of the heads of those who believe the Kracki, otherwise known as Bhagavan Kalki, is the new world savior. Among them is one Isaac Shapiro, a teacher of nonduality and the latest to go idiot in fealty to this money-lusting satscammer. Here are some excerpts from a letter written by Shapiro to his students, with a bit of commentary on our part:
Whilst in India, Anandika and I, went to see what was happening at the Oneness University also called Golden City, the vision and manifestation of Kalki and Amma. We were blown away.
The Kracki's big bucks impress. No wonder they call it the Golden City.
What touched us was at many different levels. We met many of the people who have spent about 14 years in this vision and are part of the team. We were treated with love and respect.
Of course they were! The Kracki loves to put on a show for his potential Western boosters.
On a practical level, we heard and saw dvd's of programs that are happening throughout India in the tiniest of villages which are functioning at a subsistence level. There has been a huge problem of alcoholism and family violence as these people have been caught in the downward spiral of the poor getting poorer. Villages that have had deekshas don't have the alcohol and family violence anymore.
Right. And our dog poops out roses in full bloom.
The people are more motivated to improve their lives. Some of them have attained recognizable high states. A community building has often been donated by The Golden city and villagers are learning and exploring functioning as a community, to function as oneness. The Indian government recognizes the benefits that are happening and are actively supporting this vision.
For sure! With their hands in the Kracki's pockets, of course.
Deeksha's, the transference of energy which rewires the nervous system so it is capable of being an embodied expression of unconditional love, has burst onto the world stage. It is spreading at an incredible rate.
Mass hysteria, the friend of every big time guru.
People from all over the world are attending 21 day courses which depending on which country you come from costs $5000. The money is being used to facilitate this vision of transforming humanity by 2012.
He means: to facilitate the construction of monuments to the Kracki's psychotic grandiosity.
At present 400 people a day can be facilitated and by next year 1000. People have come from all over the world including shamans from some of the indigenous tribes, pygmies etc. What is unique is that whatever religion or belief system people come with, the course is adapted to that. And sometimes there are muslim groups, christian groups and other religions happening simultaneously in different rooms in the university. What is remarkable is that Kalki is able to bring people to a realm of consciousness where they meet their personal manifestation of God, as real as we talk to each other.
Come to India to get cracked with the Kracki! No drugs are necessary!
So Christians meet Christ, Muslims meet Mohamed, advaitians meet Ramana, and so on. Unconscious programming is seen and realized to be love with the transformation that happens in that. The beauty is that people are empowered to be part of this team and facilitate this in others.
Spreading the disease, er... we mean joy, once they are infected themselves. Important note: any Advaitian who sees Ramana after visiting the Kracki deserves the delusion.
We met Sri Kalki. How to describe. On the surface an ordinary man, humble, available, sweetness itself. I felt seen and noticed my whole energy system vibrated in a gentle, powerful intelligence. Exquisite.
Translation: he made me feel good like a good con man should.
Easy to talk with, love meeting love. Millions see him as an Avatar. He talks about his capacities as something that is available to all of us, as our systems rewire and knows how to have this happen. Awesome. When he talks in India 100's of thousands show up for his darshan. His capacity to feel you is huge, so to me he is an expression of compassion.
A very good con man, apparently.

Extra super special bonus: Here's what Ammachi has to say about the shenanigans:
You cant pay for realization, if you could, many multimillionaires would be self realized. The whole idea they are saying is untrue: that you get self realization and then you pass it on to someone else. It takes a lot of penance and its not easy to get - to tell people this and expect people to pay a lot of money is not a good thing.
As much as we fault her for letting people think she is God, you gotta love good old Amma for taking a stand (and protecting her own interests, of course.)

We've said it before, but you could do a lot worse than Amma if you're looking for a big time guru to follow. Just try to remember that she poops on a toilet, too.

Cracking The Kracki Code: The "Doctor"

File under: Satscams and Gurus Clockin' Dollars

As a continuing service to our readers, we take the propaganda missives of Austin, Texas deeksha scammer William Cooper and [decode them] for your understanding and enjoyment. What follows is the subjective impressions of another individual sucked into that giant money hole known as Oneness University:
[Name redacted], a naturopathic physician [possible quack] from Portland who has been a spiritual seeker since age 15 [seeking self-acceptance], went to India last year to learn how to perform [scam using] deeksha. She says the meditations and the highly psychological depth processing work [cult indoctrination] the movement uses, combined with the transmission of higher consciousness via deeksha [acceptance of mass hysteria as reality] makes the Oneness Movement unique in her experience. The non-religious orientation [hiding the Hindu superstition it's all based on] appealed to her western sensibilities.

"This is not all exotic and mystical and that sort of thing," says [name redacted]. "It's about becoming functionally awakened [indoctrinated into a completely erroneous idea of awakening]. This is not about going into dysfunctional, mystical states, [fantasy projections of their own subconscious] because that's not really going to help the world a whole heck of a lot. Bhagavan is very interested in people being functional [so that they continue to provide funds], being able to be enlightened [made to believe they are in a state of enlightenment based on utterly false ideas about it] in pursuit of their own vocation; [to keep the money coming] not that you become enlightened and you become a spiritual teacher [there's only room for two "teachers" here]. Because there's not necessarily that specific need. There is the need for there to be enlightened doctors, enlightened politicians, enlightened plumbers, enlightened landscape designers, architects, parents [all to keep the money coming]. There's just a need for everybody to be enlightened and bring it to their own vocation and be very functional in the world."

[Name redacted] admits that the promise of enlightenment [spiritual avarice] was absolutely a strong pull to go to India. When she came back she was, "in a very good space." [duped into thinking she was enlightened]

"I don't know how to describe it," she muses. "Relatively enlightened? [there is no such thing] And that state was very, very peaceful, very relaxed. [like I'd just smoked some good weed] My heart was very open. My mind was just very optimistic and positive. I tend to have, historically, a critical turn of mind. I'm the kind of person that sees the imperfections in things. I'm comparing things all the time. That was just sort of gone [I've given up my critical thinking faculties under the influence of the indoctrination]. When I came back here, we came back to a really kind of catastrophic thing with our house. Instead of freaking out, you just deal with it. It's fine, not to worry. That was kind of an interesting little test." [a dulled mind produces little color]

For [name redacted], enlightenment has not come like a bolt from the blue, but rather as a steadily increasing capacity to be present and to love [we use the terms of "love" and being "present" as they are relatively unassailable, this despite the fact that true enlightenment has nothing to do with either of them]. As she has continued to give deeksha [mislead folks just as she has been misled] to Oneness Movement participants [patsies] in the Portland area, (which is also a way to receive the higher energies as they pour through her) [all the product of the superstitious nonsense first promoted by the Theosophists] she is experiencing a gradual deepening and strengthening of her heightened original state [the indoctrination programming is stabilizing]. She mentions that, in the west especially, there is tremendous confusion and overawe about what enlightenment really is [the Kracki's version of enlightenment being the most heinously dishonest and incorrect idea of enlightenment in present existence].
We hope that's made it a bit more clear for you all. Next up, we decode the words of notorious deeksha scammer Ron Roth.

The Amma Clone And Her Kalki

File under: Gurus Clockin' Dollars and The Siddhi of PR

There's another Amma on the rise in India, and she comes equipped with a husband who is supposedly the prophesized Kalki avatar. Sri Amma and Sri Bhagavan are the married team of world saviors who have founded Oneness University and are building the awesome Oneness Temple:
The Oneness Temple will influence the morphogenic fields across the globe, elevating man to Enlightenment, an altered state of consciousness, ultimately culminating into "God Realization". Immeasurable Divine Grace of Sri Amma and Sri Bhagavan is naturally an awesome wonder.
Naturally. An awesome wonder of human psychology as it is manipulated by belief and expectation.

Add two more of the blinded-by-their-own-glory to the roll call of grandiose pretenders to the world's most greatest savior throne. Whether or not their intentions are good, proclaiming themselves avatars is no different than being a couple of actors and giving themselves Oscar noms. It's a business decision to expand market reach. The more divine they believe you are, the more divine you will appear to be, and this particular Amma and her Bhagavan are working it just like any other Amma and/or Bhagavan.

As long as there are folks looking to be saved, there will be "avatars" out there to save them, usually from their devotees' own bank accounts.

The Kracki Cons Another American Guru

File under: Gurus Clockin' Dollars and Satscams

We just received a note from a disappointed student of the American guru couple, Arjuna and Chameli Ardagh:
A few weeks ago my hypnosis teacher, Arjuna Nick Ardagh, contacted me to say that he was now working closely with [Kalki Bhagavan of] Oneness University and was using deeksha along with hypnosis. I looked up [the Oneness Movement] web site... it sounded interesting and I was about to receive deeksha from a representative here in Canada. Thanks to your exposing of the "Avatars", I backed out of it immediately after reading your blog. You are doing important work. BRAVO! In my opinion cults are growing and growing... because hardly no one exposes them. You are probably saving many people from getting involved with cults... and wasting their lives and precious time and money.
We'd like to believe we're being helpful, but we also know we aren't much more than a mouse standing in front of a mountain of ignorance with a hat pin for a pick axe.

Meanwhile, another influential Western guru lets his ego get stroked into submission by that slimy conman known as the Kracki, spreading his own grandiosity like an epidemic of self-regarding pomposity, taking out what were formerly good spiritual teachers and turning them into mindless (and spiritually quite useless) deeksha mongers.

Kalki Bhagavan's Very Tangled Web of Cult Ownership

Today we received this dissection of the obtuse and complicated structure of the companies which comprise Kalki Bhagavan's Oneness Movement.
1) Kalki’s ashram and its associated constructions like Nemam campus, Satyalokam campus and Oneness temple falls either under the bracket of “Golden Shelters Pvt Ltd., and Prajit Foundations Pvt Ltd.
Proofs:
e) OA 269 of 2010 in CS 243 of 2010 at High Court Judicature of Madras
--à Golden Shelters Pvt Ltd was initially registered at Puri (Orissa) by Badri and Anandagiri
2) Kalki’s ashram is neither an ashram nor temple or trust as per law. It is merely a real estate company , be it; Golden shelters pvt ltd., or Prajit foundations pvt ltd
Proofs:
d) OA 269 of 2010 in CS 243 of 2010 at High Court Judicature of Madras
3) Kalki’s binami Badrinarayana Chowdary and his daughter in law (Preetha) and his disciple (Anandagiri) are the present directors for these companies.
4) Anandagiri and Preetha are running a separate spiritual organization by name One World Academy and each of them are identified to have several more companies on their names.
Proofs:
5) Badrinarayana Chowdary again is having so many other companies
6) Badri along with Ramesh are the owners of Studio N and Gyana Yogi TV channels
Proofs:
7) While Kalki has been collecting money in the name of courses, darshans, cds, cassettes, books etc. since 1989; all the above said companies orginated only after completion of Nemam, Satyalok and Varadayapalem ashrams that too after 2001.
8) While Kalki himself made a statement that Krishna, Preethaji, Anandagiri and others left his organization, till date they are still there and enjoying the ownerships of his ashrams (Golden shelters and Prajit companies).
Proofs:
9) Badri and Uday are found to be the owners of Bangalore bulls Prokabaddi team.
10) Kalki’s key disciple Lokesh also is owning so many companies including Studio N and Gyana Yogi
Proof: 
Lokesh along with another disciple Ramesh are the owners of Kosmic studio
Also see the list of companies owned by this Lokesh https://www.zaubacorp.com/director/LOKESWARA-/02165213
11) And yet all these people pretend as though they lack money and take loans from banks and mortgage ashrams and invest the loan amount for their selfish gains.
Proofs:
12) Highest loan amount borrowed is Rs. 112,149,000 (more than 112 crore rupees). What is the need to borrow loans when devotees are constantly giving donations from India and other 152 countries?
13) Other Oneness Guides like Madhuri, Namitha, Smitha, Prasanna and Bhavani also own several companies and they were caught red-handed by registering those companies on the following address pertaining to Kalki ashram
Registered Address is Campus - 4, Kurinjalam, Varadaiahpalem, Chittoor, 517541, Andhra Pradesh, India
Proofs:
14) Another Kalki disciple (Oneness guide) by name Vadapalli Damayanthi is operating at Campus-4 with huge bunch of companies on her name. Even Madhivilatha is doing the same from same address apart from Ragisha (Cancer survival), Dharmika, Pavithra, Umapathy, Shanmugham and Srinivasulu.
Registered Address is Gc 4, Bathalavallam,, Chedullapakam, Varadaiahpalem, Chittoor, 517541, Andhra Pradesh, India.
Proofs:
15) However Swathi, Shanthi, Narasimha Kumar, Radha and Neeraja operates from GC2
Proofs:
16) Surprisingly Vinod, Rudra and Aravind were functioning from different addresses
17) Now just have a look of the list of companies owned by Krishna, Anandagiri, Badri, Preetha and Kannan
After having done all these rubbish with public money they still portray as though they are divine beings descended onto earth plane only to help society for enlightenment.
Forward this msg to all.

Sikh-Baiting Baba To Be Busted

File under: Gurus Doin' Time and The Siddhi of PR

Breakaway Sikh sect leader Gurmit Singh Ram Rahim is still in boiling hot water over his last month's dress-up-like-a-revered-spiritual-leader stunt that launched riots all over the Indian state of Punjab:
After the prosecution assured the court that permission would be formally sought from the state government, the Judge issued non-bailable warrants against Ram Raheem. The warrants are returnable by July 1.
Not that this really means anything. The last couple times they tried to arrest the Baba, the cops couldn't get to him through his protective throng of devotees.

Regardless, we can't get behind this particular course of action against the Baba. Sure, his little dress-up stunt led to widespread social unrest in a particularly restive state. But if a guy can't find a safe place to realize his higher sartorial aspirations, he needs to move to a place where he can. We suggest the Kracki's Oneness University as his first stop. They're used to people dressing up as God around there, and one more fake deity on top of the others isn't going to hurt anyone anymore than they've already been ruined by the bullshit being fed directly into their brains.

Ron Roth's "Q" To Wealth (His Own That Is)

File under: Satscams and Gurus Clockin' Dollars

Ron Roth was just another average New Age™ spiritual teacher until he met up with the Bhagavan Kalki. Flattered to within an inch of his life with a fusillade designed to inflate his spiritual ego, Roth has now proclaimed himself to be an "avatar of divine love" with the backing of those crooks at Oneness University. Change that to an avatard of psychotic grandiosity and you have a pretty good picture of where we feel Ron is coming from.

Lately, he's teamed up with a wealth-building shill named Annette Bau, creator of the "Millionaire Series." Together they have devised "The Power of Q's", a flim flam promoted as a "free" opportunity to ask Ron a question about those "Q's" (read: cues) in your life that can lead you to greater wealth, health, happiness, etc. You get to ask Ron your question for free, provided you queue up well in advance. But don'tcha know that if you arrive late – or just don't want to bother with arriving early – you can pre-purchase a recording of the event for only $9.97. That's half off the usual price of $19.97. There's a name for that kind of marketing where we come from. It's called a bait and switch.

Ron is taking deeksha down an even more blatantly acquisitive avenue than even the Kracki himself. We imagine the news of this advance in flimflamming percolating back up the chain of command to the head con man, resulting in orders to recruit "partners" who have authored get-rich-quick books to join the team of money-lusting satscammers already fleecing millions from dupes in both India and the U.S.

Ron Roth, Annette Bau and the Kracki are all counting on the ignorance of the masses for their next meal (and yacht, mansion, trip to Vegas, glorious monument to their ego, etc.), and with only our teeny voice among the clamor of the spiritually avaricious, we can't claim to have much hope there's really anything that can be done about it.

Get Kracked For 11 Grand

File under: The Bhagocon Kracki, Satscams and Gurus Clockin' Dollars

Got an extra 11 large and a desire to waste it mercilessly? Then get yourself to that horrendous monument to psychotic grandiosity, Oneness University in India, where for about 11 Gs you can touch the feet of the Kracki himself!
Sri Bhagawan on His behalf to show His gratitude give us an opportunity to meet Him, Speak with Him and blesses the family in a ceremony called “PADA POOJA”. Till now the minimum contribution for Pada Pooja had been Rs. 100,000. Coming March it would be increased to Rs. 500,000.
We are SOOOOO graced to be able to give the Kracki over 11 grand to touch his feet and receive his "blessing"! Just think of the all the ego-aggrandizement that will be stacking up in his brain. What a joy to contribute to!

This pada pooja is destined to make devotee bank accounts pretty much full of nada, and all for a few seconds audience with the worst evil to hit self-realization since Helene Blavatsky figured out how to grab fame and money with her radically ignorant interpretation of the Vedas.

The true tragedy here is that people are attempting to buy their way into heaven by way of some con man's smelly feet. It highlights just how sick and greedy the Kracki and his dupli-Amma 'ho really are, making these fauxvatars the most craven and manipulative of gurus in action today.

Cracking The Kracki Code

File under: Satscams, Wackadoo Gurus, Gurus Clockin' Dollars and The Siddhi of PR

A kind reader forwarded the following recruitment letter from one of the Bhagavan Kalki's minions in Austin, Texas. He bailed out when they began talking "about having an enlightenment beyond Buddha and Ramana." We commend her on the wise decision, but we've also got to give the Kracki credit for the brilliant, American-style marketing play. You don't want the same, ordinary, old-fashioned enlightenment that the Buddha and Ramana had. That's just plain uncool (besides allowing you to see right through all the Kracki's bullshit.)

As a service to our readers, we will attempt to read between the lines and show you what is really going on as the Kracki and his pseudo-Amma consort attempt to bring about the Golden Age (as in gold in their bank accounts:)
Love to you All,

The first line from the Cult 101 textbook says, "Make it all about "love" and you can't go wrong." It's a classic obfuscation to use against your critics. "It's perfectly innocent and about love. What could you possibly have against love?" We love love, we really do. But the nondual truth is quite plain and simple. Love (or any other emotion) has as much to do with the truth of the Self as a dog's ass.

Well there is so much to say...so much happening. I'll tell you a little now and more later with the next email.

The first taste is always free.

As you know, what is happening in Austin and in the world is a vital part of a huge world awakening by 2012.

We've appropriated Jose Arguelles' and Terrence McKenna's interpretation of Mayan prophecy [a whole other kettle of NewAge™ nonsense] for our own purposes, to con the unsuspecting into believing they are part of a global movement toward higher consciousness (for regular donations, of course.)

I truely know that we have been Graced to be a leading part of this world awakening.

The Kracki made me his bitch by flattering me with utter nonsense about the state of my realization, just like he did to Issac Shapiro and Ron Roth. Now I've got a ten mile-wide ego just like them.

The first step is to relax into your awakening until it is Our awakening.

You will be assimilated.

The program this Friday will give us a functional place to do that with one another. Meditation, Group deeksha, satsang, and being with one another will be brought together in this program.

We must reinforce the nonsense we are shoving down your throats.

Please consider coming....you are so important to all of Us. As your enlightenment process continues, we can consider relational enlightenment and what that looks like.

Relational enlightenment. A brilliant invention and deception to keep 'em in the Kracki's clutches. No such thing exists.

We will change Austin and the world as we change from the inside out. Currently, there are 7 from our group at the Oneness University in India.

We're a part of the pyramid now–and we want our payout!

You may have been experiencing a hightened [sic] state of energy or movement inside. That is because they are directly connected with you and our group.

In the fantasy spiritual scenario and emotional trance we are selling you as enlightenment, the power of deeksha is like a thread of love that ties us all together. The Kracki, me, you... and your bank account.

We have another 3 or 4 going in March with many more to follow in Aug and Oct. They will have a tremendous impact on all of us and the world...as will you as you deepen here in Austin.

It better have an "impact" on our account balance after all the money we paid for this nonsense in India.

So my thoughts about deeksha are very much on a world level now....not just about you and me. I have had requests to go to a number of different cities and, until then there are people driving long distances to be with us in Austin.

I am an avatar of Divine Love. Didn't you know? This town is way too small for my awesome spiritual powers now.

These are exciting times that are being facilitated by the Divine in so many ways. It is explosive! You are a part of that.

We need your money you to help us bring riches to the Kracki enlightenment to the world.

You have some unique gifts that will be used toward world enlightenment as your process, also, deepens.

Here's a little somethin' somethin' to get you going on your own ego-inflation and grandiosity.

When I was in India the first time, I asked Amma directly what I needed to do to deepen my enlightenment and give powerful deekshas. She told me to do seva (selfless service for the benefit of others). For me, that is to give deeksha and support you in any way I can. I have structured the ever evolving programs toward that end.

They sucked me right into this scam with flattery and bullshit. Now I'm doing the same to you.

I found out today that two of my friends were worried that I was doing too much. I am touched by their concern and love. As I consider all of you and your friends who have not even been to deeksha yet, I know that I need help and now is the time for me to ask you.

They've got calls out to any cult-busters they can get a hold of, but I'm one step ahead of them.

We have a vital world role to play here in Austin and I am here to tell you that you are a key part of that. You have something you can contribute rather easily in an exciting way.

It's called your hard-earned cash.

I do not want to and will not ask you to be burdened.

Here, let me unburden you of as much cash as I am able.

I am asking those of you that want to go deeper by doing your seva to offer your services in a way that repects [sic] your path, time, energy, etc. yet moves the world to a better place. Time is up....now we really have to act in the world.

This is the second lesson in Cult 101: give them something to fear and then present yourself as the only solution.

If you can put up 2 posters then do that, if you can do a bit more then let us know. [name redacted] has volunteered to facilitate this. We would like to keep it very simple and easy so if you want to do seva, you can do only what feels good in the way that you want and can stop anytime. If many of us do a little from time to time, no one will get 'burnt out". I say "many" rather than all because that may not be where you are now and that is respected as well.

We haven't quite sucked you all in yet. Don't worry. We will.

[Name redacted] will have a list of all sorts of things that would be helpful from singing to smiling and you can pick what you like. Or you may have a talent that we have not thought of that would help Us All. You could mention that to her. If you are interested in seva please email her at [email redacted] soon. You will bless Us and be blessed!

We will make you our slave. It all starts with putting up a poster or two.

Thank you!

Cha-CHING!

Someone said that they wanted me to give an intensive so I will do that all day on Sat. 2/11 out at Lake Travis at [name redacted's] house. You can also go to the deeksha on Friday the 10th in Austin and/or Sun. the 12th in SA and really soak in your Self.

And herein lies the Kracki's deepest, blackest evil. We are never NOT "soaking" in our Self. The Kracki is lying right through his veneers about a lot of things, but especially about the idea that you are closer to the Self when attending his indoctrinations. There is a very hot room very deep in the pits of Hell waiting for the Kracki because of this.

I would guess that many of those that will have just gotten back from India will want to participate. It will be a great "deepening" experience and is open to all. I will send out more details in a week or so.

Come practice your newly acquired cult recruitment skills on any new patsies we can get to attend.

I really do hope you will come to Friday's program (1/13). I want to make it very easy for you and your friends to come....that is why it is by love offering for now.

What a great concept! A "love" offering. It's closer to a guilt-you-into-a-donation offering. "What! You didn't offer a donation? Don't you have any love?"

Love,

William

I am William, here me roar! I OWN Austin for the Kracki!
Fortunately, we don't believe the Kracki will get the kind of traction in the U.S. he has in India. Folks will cycle through his deception naturally, just as they do in any Ponzi scheme or pyramid scam. A bit poorer in pocket perhaps, and hopefully much wiser about flim-flamming avatars and the nincompoops who follow them for their own spiritual self-glory.

Freaky Filmmaker Wants TM™ In Schools

File under: Gurus to the Stars and The Siddhi of PR

David Lynch is known as a creative filmmaker with a penchant for portraying the dark side in works that can sometimes be as incomprehensible as they are disturbing. We're quite sure his colleagues are having trouble comprehending his latest project, raising 7 billion dollars to fund a TM™ meditation program for school kids, first in the U.S. and then eventually, the rest of the world. You know that is going to go over big with the prayer-in-school crowd.

Lynch is convinced—as many TM™ers are—that more people meditating means more peace in the world. They've conducted "studies" which seem to support their claim that groups of TM™ meditators can lower crime in the areas where they meditate.

While we can't argue with the logic of meditation increasing the peace, we're damn sure that it's not only TM™ that works. The peace which results by meditating transcends any and all techniques, and its effect isn't by some kind of supernatural "vibration" humming the hate out of people. Meditators become calm simply because their minds become calm. Calm folk usually aren't fighters. Hence, more peace.

But Lynch and the TM™ers are convinced otherwise:
"This is not a pretend thing," said Lynch. He went on the explain that the eventual goal is to sponsor "peace-creating super groups of 8,000 meditators" chanting simultaneously around the planet. 8,000, by the way, is "the size of the square root of one percent of the world's population."
We're not impressed with the math, especially since it's already being used by that moniker-snake Amma and her partner, Bhagavan:
Oneness University... will be Asia’s largest hall without pillars, where 8000 people will be meditating together at one time. An extraordinary experience, unparalleled in human history awaits mankind, when 8000 people are meditating shall generate energy, never before realized on earth.
It's too bad they've all already been made the bitches of the maestro of fame-seeking gurus, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar.

Slinging Kracki On The Corner In Austin

File under: Satscams and Gurus Clockin' Dollars

Licensed counselor William Cooper of Austin, Texas, is a king pin in the Bhagavan Kalki's, aka the Kracki's attempts to sell his "deeksha" hysteria in the U.S. His primary targets appear to be satsang junkies, as they are the most desperate to get something from their imagined enlightenment. Cooper's method is chillingly simple. He asks the junkies to sell it for him by including their expressions of hysteria in his sales spam communications:
If you would like, you could email me about any subtle or not so subtle changes you may have noticed since the energy transfer. Although "the seed of enlightenment" will continue to grow and it is still early, I would like to hear about your experiences. One woman told me that she was still to start with but has found that it is deepening, another has noticed synchronicities becoming more obvious and frequent. Someone else says that their merging with silence and nature is becoming deeper and more common place. Others may find that it is too early to tell yet what is happening. I find that my psychological self continues to melt into the vast fullness of emptiness. When this melting occurs, muscle groups shudder as they release great amounts of old stored up tensions. As these tensions are released, it seems as my nervous system is expanding to convey greater amounts of energy which flows in from the vastness. My body feels more and more vibrant and alive.
As you might imagine, folks write back with all kinds of kooky nonsense, all cut from the template that Cooper provides them as he administers deeksha:
If you received the initial diksha well, it will continue to grow. It is a process that happens over time and is automatic. How can you tell if you received it well....are you seeing some changes happening. Can you feel old stuff starting to dissolve? Having said that, I and others have received multiple dikshas and I feel that it has compounded and speeded up the process. Everyone's results are different. Your path is your path. Many love to get diksha as often as they can. That is up to you and what you feel you need. Most important is your permanent awakening! You can trust your intuition on that. There is no fear as to missing anything....only following your inner voice to your total and permanent awakening when you are ready for it.
Another prong in Cooper's psych ops is to provide "scientific" evidence to support his claims of the miraculous power of deeksha by way of a NewAge™ quack and neuroscammitist known as Christian Opitz:
The production of oxytocin is severely hindered in most people today and this often starts at birth. In the late 1940s, medicine began to use drugs at birth as if it was some kind of disease. Among those drug, petocin (synthetic oxytocin) is used to induce contractions and thus birth, on the hospital's schedule instead of following the natural interaction between baby and mother. Whenever we receive a huge dose of a synthetic version of a hormone, our receptors are overwhelmed and the body's own production can be compromised. If this happens at birth, there can be permanent damage and a life - long pattern of producing too little oxytocin. It does not help much that the most important bonding phase between mother and child right after birth has become a medical procedure of taking blood, measuring the baby, cutting the umbilical cord too early and not allowing the baby a direct bonding with the mother and thus a gentle entrance into this world. The combination of petocin and the lack of empathy for the newborn baby in medicalized birth procedures is almost certain to severely compromise oxytocin production.

It is interesting to note that heavy drug use at birth, from petocin to pain killers to even some psychedelic substances that are no longer used, was introduced after WWII. When the first generation of babies who came into this world on drugs had arrived at young adulthood in the 1960s, they where the first generation to seek a deeper meaning of life through drugs. I believe the lack of natural oxytocin caused by drug use at the entrance into life can set up a strong recapitulation pattern of seeking life through drugs.

Although it is very difficult to measure hormones and neurotransmitters in the brain directly, electromagnetic signature testing allows for some conclusions about the effects of diksha in this regard. One of the main effects I have found with people who have been receiving diksha for a year or longer is a regeneration of receptors for both dopamine and oxytocin. This automatically leads to greater efficiency of these neurochemicals and a decrease in cortisol production. Diksha can also regenerate the substantia nigra, where dopamine is produced and this directly shows up in changed electromagnetic brain patterns. Many times I have observed a natural release of addictive patterns through diksha that where clearly related to low dopamine levels. Another interesting parameter is the electromagnetic communication between the brain and the heart. This seems to progressively get stronger in people through diksha and is one of the most important energetic correlation's of the flowering of the heart and true compassion. In some of the Dasas and in Ron Roth, this connection was off the charts when I measured them. Oxytocin is the biochemical bridge between the brain and heart. From the data I have gathered so far, diksha seems to be effective in strongly enhancing oxytocin in the vast majority of people. I also believe that this is one of the aspects of birth trauma that can be healed through diksha and that this effect makes diksha so worthwhile for children. Even though children are not supposed to enter into an enlightenment process, growing up with lots of oxytocin will give them a much more beautiful life experience.
We are very happy to offer, as a service to our readers, the thoughts of a university professor at a major research institution with a PhD in neuroscience:
Although the author does a good job describing the basic actions of several neuromodulators and neurotransmitters, he also makes several leaps of judgment based on the scientific data. Many of his claims are inflammatory and self-serving. For example, the author claims that synthetic oxytocin used to induce birth contractions drastically alters either the receptor density or endogenous levels of oxytocin production postnatally. There is no evidence to back up this claim. The author further states that the use of exogenous oxytocin after WWII created the "first generation to seek a deeper meaning of life through drugs." First, there is no evidence that children born after WWII or babies exposed to exogenous oxytocin are neurologically different than previous generations nor unexposed cohorts. Secondly, in almost every culture and historical period narcotics and/or alcohol were used in and for religious rituals. The desire to seek altered states is nothing new.

In all fairness, the author's unsubstantiated claims may be correct but should be tested. However, making these claims without supporting data seems to be used as a scare tactic used to make readers feel victimized by Western Science/Medicine who then may be compeled to seek "healing" from the author through diksha.

The most questionable aspect of this diatribe is the author's claim that he has tested alterations in neurotransmitters, hormones, and receptors via electromagnetic signature testing. There is no scientific data to support that this technique is viable. There are other, well established, means of testing changes in neurotransmitters and hormones via blood and saliva testing. There are also newer techniques using magnetic resonance spectroscopy, similar to a MRI, to test alterations in neurotransmitters and receptor turn-over.

There is some very good research that has and is being conducted demonstrating that meditation and prayer can have profound effects upon stress hormones and even upon the immune system. However, abuse of scientific data in the hands of a pseudo-scientist or false guru dilutes the power of the authentic research and the fascinating discoveries these studies produce.
She could be talking about any number of gurus and satscams that use so-called "scientific" studies to support their contentions and sell their products. And as any good snake oil salesman knows, there's one born every minute. They may get a bit of peace and joy, and that by itself is a good thing. But the clarity clouding assertions about enlightenment, how it happens and what it results in, is doing more to prevent self-realization than all the drugs and bad hormones this world has ever known, accumulatively.

The Kracki is truly an evil force on the planet at the moment. His platitudes about love, oneness and God energy hide an insidious attempt to destroy a person's ability to come to their own self-realization, and this plays right into his hands. He and his minions like Cooper are getting people hooked on a false, yet seductive idea about enlightenment, one which keeps 'em coming back for more, which is what every crack dealer in the world dreams about.
