Godman create psychic groups, which act like drugs on the dull and the dumb, fiddling to fraud them in its fold. They entice and entrap simple spiritual seekers by disturbing and dangerous means to pocket their money. Truth does not depend on salesmanship but Godman acts as a salesman using his ambiguous aptitude. He clothes his disciples in unusual dresses, making them sit in strange postures and force them to surrender and submit to the Godman’s command.
Truth is not attained by strenuous efforts or by the stupid suggestions of a Godman, who himself doesn’t know what truth is. The uneducated and the unemployed with dubious background having little or no knowledge of religious scriptures think themselves fit enough to be a Godman. The Vedic sages did not preach for money, they spoke about renunciation, while today’s Godman is commercial and lustful, he forces people to give donations, and accept expansive gifts. He sits on a lavishly decorated throne placed in a huge auditorium and reaches out to his audience through television, as well. It is fashionable among the ‘Indian Elite’ to have a Godman, who can enhance their social standing, even if, they have nothing to do with religion or spirituality. It’s true, the Godman himself is not liberated, how less he can liberate others. The Godman is loud and shallow and spends a lot of time and money to build his image as a Godman, enabling him to be in the company of the cream of the crop and politicians in power, as birds of a feather flock together. All popular Godman of India have a dubious track record, clearly implying that only the shameless liars with criminal background qualify to be the best Godman. Godman propagates false doctrines others believe, the gullible follow and gift their land and money and cause others to commit depravities with destructive deviation and thoughtlessly exploit people with false beliefs and superstitions. Outwardly the Godman is in a sheep’s clothing but inwardly he is a ravenous wolf. Religious people are simple and naive so the Godman takes full advantage of this shortcoming. Even though the Godman himself is flawed, so he fumbles and fails, when exposed. Yet he churns out ready reckoners for God Realization. In addition, we have a clan of clerics, prelates and pseudo saints, who play havoc with the life of the believers. These men of God virtually sell religion. They have also devised queer ways of earning faith and loyalty from their followers and bullyingly warn from the podium, if, their devotees’ switchover to another Guru, then they should prepare to face the divine wrath. Only wicked people become Godman. Therefore deceitfulness, fraud, hypocrisy, irreligion etc. obviously tends to increase. They hold mass gathering and insist if they are the object of worship, only then a disciple can attain salvation, so if a disciple fails to serve the Godman, he will go to hell. Godman concocts cock and bull stories and simpletons believe, and are ensnared by their pretense, and thus are brought under his control. The Godman should neither be trusted nor served.
