Hello nameless one.

You don't actually stand to be villified on this forum -  merely disagreed with.

The position seems to be binary -  

1) Prem Rawat is a deeply flawed conman who has and does exploit his spiritual heritage for personal gain.  His personal life remains hidden and protected by legal agreements because exposure would undermine the credibility of his business which is based upon his supposed role as a 'wise man'  - a teacher of self knowledge.  Far from being of value the eventual effect of his  'message' and teachings is disempowering and damaging -  resulting in long term psychological dependence upon Rawat as the teacher rather than engendering self-confidence and liberation i.e. it is a personality cult wherein his 'school' is one that none have ever graduated from bar himself.

or

2) Prem Rawat is honest and truly is that which he now presents himself to be.  His personal life reflects his deep self knowledge and understanding of life.  His message and teachings are of real value.

Of course 1) can be true and yet at the same time Prem Rawat's personal culpability be diminished because he, himself may be no more than the product of a warped upbringing - and only fulfilling the destiny of his training.  

I am a long time out of being a premie but it is genuinely fascinating to me now - after all the first hand testimony from close associates of prem rawat- all the changes over the years from Divine light mission to TPRF, LOTU to 'the speaker' that anyone can still believe that 2) is correct.
