Rawat specifically commanded us to not doubt and warned us incessantly of the hazards we'd face if we did. Don't be such a liar. 

Warning of the danger and commanding are two different approaches. I contend it was the former. And don't be so quick to call someone with a different POV a liar.

But what if the directions are wrong? 

That is all the justification doubt needs. Now wallow in it!

I have gotten lost many times because I had this very same doubt.

When is it okay to re-consider [the directions] or their source? 

There is no right answer to this question.

I'm afraid your example works far better in my favour than yours.

Not if the directions are accurate.

Religions that at least acknowledge the human faculty of reason which necessarily includes doubt are best. 

Like what religion? Name one that says, "Go ahead and doubt the existence of God. Go ahead and doubt our scriptures". There is no religion that promotes such heresy. You are just blowing more smoke.

Rawat's doesn't [acknowledge the human faculty of reason ] and, as a result, produces weird characters like you!

More disingenuous rubbish! Maharaji speaks highly of reason and the intellect without giving it disproportional importance.
