Dear seeker3 Ji,


You said that one has to Learn the language of the SGGS to understand.ABSOLUTELY .right Ji...BUT the same applies to a Living Guru...it cant be that a "Living Guru" SPEAKS each and every language ? Surely his FOLLOWERS have to be conversant with the ONE/two..maybe three/// language that HE speaks ?? Just How many Languages does the average Living Guru speak well ?? You see we become quite blinded by our own living guru...it happens...I know the Radhasoami Guru. He is a Typical Living Guru..so I will confine my thoughts to him only....He speaks good English as he is a trained Engineer and was staying in Australia clean shaven and all before he got the gadee and grew a long beard and put a dastaar on his head....he may speak hindi/punajbi.....but thats about it..cna he communicate in Ukrainian..French..Chinese..F{censored}e..Arabic..etc etc ??


You say SGGS is "just poetry"....I say the "living Guru" is JUST WORDS....what else he got. The SGGS has Centuries of Persoanl Experiences of Godly men and Bhagats to communicate their Message of Divine LOVE to us...the "living Guru" has just his own limited ones...in simple WORDS only. The "LG" also solicits MONEY and properties and lands..of his followers...not in an open way a s in "Goluck"..but behind the back ways that enrich them even more.


IDOLS have no langauge and need no language. because they got nothing to communicate. The SGGS has so much to Communicate.


Yes a Doctor wont "worship" his books..BUT he does REFER to them..and he does keep himslef "EDUCATED" and up to date through OTHER BOOKS of simialr nature....no doctor stops after graduation !! Same for all other worldly education..BUT then the SGGS is NOT about Worldly education..its BRAHAM BICHAAR....of the Creator...


Btw there is such a thing as Open learning....Distance Learning...very little use for "living teachers"..people learn and graduate through their computers...to be fair to "living Guru" adherents..many such "living Gurus" also maintain WEBSITES and do INTERNET PARCHAAR for a wider audience and more money. WHY they DONT close down these sites and just be "LIVING GURU" in PERSON...less money and less followers !!!! Reality does bite...


Thank you and keep in chardeekalla jio...
