Beware the Kal (Week 4 Post 7)

This was my favorite article to read this semester. I nodded, I smiled, Ichuckled, I got a little mad and then a little sad. An emotional journey, if youwill, that placed me in the seat of the skeptic, the believer and the guru andallowed me to examine the facts (as presented by the author), from all angles.Lane, being a follower of Radhasoami, recognized right away that Eckancar hadplagiarized directly from Radhasoami texts, lied about biographical details andcommenced vast cover ups concerning the true origin of Eck's doctrines. Lane wascalled out as the Kal, the negative force that had been predicted from thebeginning of mankind. I think he kind of enjoyed this. The more they fought, themore he persisted. If someone is spreading information about you that is untrue,sure there is a sense of anger, but most, well adjusted people can laugh it off,shake it off, know that people who really know them will not believe it or willlike them anyway. When people get angry, when they stomp their feet and threatento sue you, to kill you to ruin your life, well, that's when you know you aregetting somewhere.
