A Pictorial History of Prem Rawat: 1976 Crisis in Understanding
Spiritual group's claims: Teenage Guru to Change Style

In March 1975, Bob Mishler - still DLM president decided it was time for another publicity campaign. DLM and Maharaj Ji would come out of the closet again. No more "the Lord has come" crap. Just the message: Knowledge can help you gain profound insight into life. What was he thinking? It doesn't.

They Were Enjoying Their Elephant Dung Smoothies Too Much … Or Were They?

Some Premies in Australia had the Courage to Discuss the Paradox of the Practice of Knowledge - Golden Age No. 31
For those who haven't heard, pseudo-Knowledge is a term for doing all the external activities associated with the practice of real Knowledge - going to satsang, working for Divine Light Mission, sitting down for an hour morning and night, speaking softly (or loudly, depending on your concept), eating vegetarian … However, many young Australians who have supposedly been practising Knowledge for two or three or four years, still find their lives going violently up and down, still experience paranoia, still have trouble giving satsang, still find it hard to get on with this person or that person. So something, it has been surmised, is wrong: either Maharaj Ji's got his wires crossed and Knowledge isn't what he says it is, or else
Things became so bad amongst the premies at one stage that Prem Rawat had to stop pretending everything was great … in his own way
"And I am trying. There is just no need to bother about it. Everything is okay, and everything is under control. That's one thing I thought you should know. Everything is okay, so bother. Everything will be taken care of. I am trying. Thank you very much." - Prem Rawat
