Re: The fear-based curse that HK put on Darwin's materials
Prometheus,
I only carried your text forward, and not my original post.
"When Harold said that Darwin's photo and written materials were
dangerous or harmful, it was a fear-based curse that Klemp put on all
Eckists." Because from that point on, Eckists would be afraid of
Darwin's
materials. The fact that you and another person threw them out so
promptly
proves that the curse worked. The curse worked on me in the same
manner
because I had the same reaction. A short while ago I bought a copy of
"Your Right To Know." As soon as I unwrapped the package I went into a
severe state of fear and panic. So I put the book away and went to my
healer. It turned out that my fear was caused by the fear-based curse
that Harold Klemp put on Darwin's materials. My healer cleared
that "energy" from me. A few days later, I picked up Darwin's book
and read the first half of it with no problems. I was as calm as can
be. So these curses that Eckankar uses are real, but they can be
healed. The healing technique used was NET (Neuro-Emotional
Technique).
Regarding Harold's photo showing him much younger than he really is.
I agree with you. It might be his ego, but my take on it is that this
is a type of Madison Avenue Marketing that Eckankar Headquarters
dreamed up: "We want a young guy heading our religion, not some old
guy."
Your comment about Eastern gurus always having a photo and flowers is
right on. I was in TM before Eckankar and the way you described it is
absolutely right. I believe that this very common in India, and they
don't even think about it. But people should realize that not all
Hindus follow a guru, and I would say that the vast majority do not.
They go to the local Hindu temple. There are priests there. The
followers worship their supreme, omnipresent God (Ik onkaar). They
worship the Hindu Deities. There are rituals at the temple. They read
the Hindu scriptures. And that's about it. There are no gurus at the
temple.
I don't know specifically about Sikhism, but I would guess that it
might be similar. Sikhism certainly has gurus because Paul
Twitchell's teacher Kirpal Singh was a Sikh guru, not a Hindu guru.
