5080:"During 1971, there were social forces encouraging the development of millenarian beliefs within the Mission. They were developed in part by the carryover of millennial thinking from the counterculture; by the psychological trappings of surrender and idealization; by the guru's mother, whose satsang was full of references to his divine nature; and partly by the guru, himself, for letting others cast him in the role of the Lord. Given the social pressures within the premie community which reinforced these beliefs, there was little hope premies would be able to relax the hold that their beliefs and concepts had over them. ... From the beginning, Guru Maharaj Ji appealed to premies to give up their beliefs and concepts so that they might experience the Knowledge, or life force, more fully. This, as I have said, is one of the chief goals of gurus, to transform their followers' perceptions of the world through deconditioning. Yet Guru Maharaj Ji's emphasis on giving up beliefs and concepts did not prevent premies from adopting a fairly rigid set of ideas about his divinity and the coming of a new age." 1557:
Rumiton) have consistently opposed sources that don't support Rawat unless they are scholars of the highest qualification. But those supporting Rawat face a very low standard of qualification. Speaking for myself, I would love to see any consistent standard for qualification, high or low, but the double standard is very grating. Collier is a perfect example. She has no scholarly qualifications whatsoever, and has described in great detail her heavy use of LSD and other drugs. Yet the 3 editors consider her fine. Even worse, they accept her when she supports their argument that Rawat did not claim divinity, but reject her when she reports claims that Rawat was "sloshed." James Randi, a person skeptical of all religion, who is colorful and opinionated but generally well researched and accurate, they will not accept. They will focus on minor factual discrepancies on people like Randi, but the results of their arguments are very consistently pro-Rawat. In this particular case, Randi is not a great source in my opinion but he's far better than Collier.
1645:, quoting his opinion does no one a favour, unless it is presented as an example of an ignorant response to the subject. This approach seems rather snide and peevish to me, and unfair to the source in question, who was probably writing in good faith. And it seems peculiarly dogmatic to say, "No, this is a reputable source and what he said has to go in." Regarding Collier, I agree that she is not an impressive recounter of events, but quoting her as saying she (or however many others) felt a joy and peace from practising the techniques seems unexceptional to me. A lot of sources say something similar, though clearly they are all open to the allegation of positive bias. Regarding Watts, knowing something of his writings I think he was clearly writing poetically and using oxymoron in his reference to "sacred ignorance", and to insist on including his words without that context, and for their shock value, is disingenuous. Claiming we must not "interpret" his words and must present them as is, also seems dishonest and agendered. 1447:"For example, they told me, some 2,000 years ago a mid-East virgin was impregnated by a ghost of some sort, and as a result produced a son who could walk on water, raise the dead, turn water into wine, and multiply loaves of bread and fishes. All that was in addition to tossing out demons. He expected and accepted a brutal, sadistic, death — and then he rose from the dead. There was much, much, more. Adam and Eve, they said, were the original humans, plunked down in a garden to start our species going. But I didn't understand, and still don't, that they had only two children, both sons — and one of them killed the other — yet somehow they produced enough people to populate the Earth, without incest, which was a big no-no! Then some prophet or other made the Earth stop turning, an army blew horns until a wall fell down, a guy named Moses made the Red Sea divide in two, and made frogs fall out of the sky…. I needn't go on. And that's only a small start on one religion! The Wizard of Oz is more believable. And more fun." 4600:
mediation style, not necessarily from a more "formal" style. A mediation process that actively seeks to minimize differences and find common ground. (I've noticed that even as drafts come closer together we still tend to get bogged down by increasingly minor disputes rather than recognizing the larger agreements. An outside mediator can say "hey folks, just go with what you agree on and leave off the disputed part" in a way that participants can't.) I'd previously proposed changing this to formal mediation while retaining Steve's involvement as a co-mediator or advisor. The point of that wasn't to "formalize" mediation, and it certainly wasn't to change mediators, it was just to jumpstart the mediation with some fresh approaches. This is a large, complex case with literally hundreds of thousands of words written in just the past six months, and an on-WP history going back four years. Steve has already expended the time and effort to review that history, and he shows a good understanding of the disputes.

is mandatory on Committee mediation pages, and parties who attack on the MedCom's watch will be handled and counteracted as appropriate. Mediators are not security guards, but we do ensure the high standards of conduct are maintained. Strategies may be developed as a peripheral mini-project in the course of mediation, whereby parties will be required to agree to communicate properly and maintain civility and open communication, as well as agree to work for the benefit of the encyclopedia. That way, should any party begin to hamper the progress of resolving the dispute through his or her conduct, action can be swiftly taken by an uninvolved administrator. Put simply, things have been going not bad thus far with the MedCab, but it's time to pass this on to a body which specialises in on-Wiki mediation, and has on its team editors appointed for their skills at handling disputes -- no matter how difficult. All that I ask of you and the other parties, is that you give it a chance and agree to the mediation.
5098:"There are those who sincerely believe that Guru Maharaj Ji is the Lord of Creation here in the flesh to save the world. And then there are those who know him a little better than that. They relate to him in a more human way ... to them he is more of a teacher, a guide, a co-conspirator in their personal pursuit of a more heavenly way of life. Guru Maharaji, though he has never made a definitive statement on his own opinion of his own divinity, generally encourages whatever view is held by the people he is with. Addressing several hundred thousand ecstatic Indian devotees, prepared for his message by a four-thousand-year cultural tradition, he declares, 'I am the source of peace in this world ... surrender the reins of your life unto me and I will give you salvation.' On national television in the United States he says sheepishly, with his hands folded in his lap, 'I am just a humble servant of God. 1750:
I'm frustrated because I have been trying again and again to establish some kind of objective standard we can agree to, and then apply. If people agree on the standard, then the particulars should be much easier. Jossi however steadfastly opposes any standard. Yes, context is important, but when it's used to justify a quote by Collier -- acknowledged as a non-expert -- saying that Rawat's techniques made her happy, well it's hard for me to see that as a good faith judgment of context instead of pro-Rawat cheerleading. I also have trouble with accepting any and all scholars, given that we have at least 3 sources who are acknowledged devotees of Rawat (but don't always acknowledge that in their articles.) I haven't read Van der Lans, but if he's grinding an anti-Rawat axe, I don't think it's a wise compromise to include both.

big gaping wound on Knowledge which only a very few people out of thousands of editors here, are willing to address as impartial observers. So, instead of trying to fix the specific problems we have, a bigger bandage (formal mediation) is being placed on the same weeping, infected wound. I honestly don't see any resolution(s) happening by going to formal mediation as it has many limitations, but I'm very willing to hear more arguments in favor of the same. That said, I don't want to discuss this in bland generalities, rather, I want to know specific details as to how this case will be managed day to day to day and have some kind of warranty that I'm not going to be personally attacked, and if I am, that prompt action will occur against offenders. As a sample question, is editor

of Skeptic magazine and executive director of the Skeptics Society, notes Randi has taken on the role another famous magician, Houdini, once held. "It takes a magician to know how people deceive purposely. Scientists are not trained to detect intentional deception," Shermer said. "If you care about reality, Randi is a lens through which to see how these claims are put to the test." Randi's parents raised him Anglican, but he said from childhood, he never found the existence of God believable. He doesn't draw much of a distinction between mainstream religious groups and other spiritual figures on the fringe. The only difference, he said, is more established faiths have much more power.

Mission. My question is - can this book be used as a primary source for the official position of Divine Light Mission at the time? I ask because I and many others recall that Prem Rawat at the time was promoted by himself and his close disciples as the one and only Incarnation of God on the planet, but although there are good sources that state that many of his followers believed he was God, the Wiki articles do not present this belief as a central teaching of Divine Light Mission, and I believe they should. The back cover of the book asks 'Why do more than six million people around the world claim he is the greatest incarnation of God that ever trod the face of this planet?'. --
3454:" is viewed about 13 times a day. There's no proof, and no previous assertion, that Randi's view is a fringe view. Another aspect of proportionality is that there have been thousands of commetnators on the life and teahcings of Jesus. How many have there been on Rawat? In the scheme of things Randi is a very minor commentator on Jesus, but a relatively more important commentator on Rawat simply because so few noteworthy people have bothered to comment. Overall, I don't think that comparison of Jesus and Rawat are helpful. The circumstances are too different. Rawat has a number of contemporaries who are much more similar in most respects. 2573:"Guru Maharaj Ji, though he has never made a definitive statement on his own opinion of his own divinity, generally encourages whatever view is held by the people he is with. Addressing several hundred thousand ecstatic Indian devotees, prepared for his message by a four-thousand-year cultural tradition, he declares, (in the Peace Bomb satsang I believe pw) 'I am the source of peace in this world . . . surrender the reins of your life unto me and I will give you salvation.' On national television in the United States he says sheepishly, with his hands folded in his lap, 'I am just a humble servant of God. 2491:
three days. As a joke on BB, someone tacked up a sign that said "Mars" around an empty section of seats, parroting the signs premies of France, Sweden, India, Spain, etc., had put up to announce their country of origin. The high point of the event for me was some beers I had with Lola and the Village Voice reporter, Marilyn Webb. As I sat and sipped, the two of them ranted about what a disappointment the Millennium event had turned out to be. (As I discovered later, we were not the only ones for whom some alcohol was the festival's high point. Bob Mishler told me Maharaj Ji got "sloshed.")
4807:
whom they lean closest to for representing their views. In that case I'd insist an invitation is posted on Msalt's user talk page: he's listed above still as a participant in this MEDCAB case, and I'm sure he would be inclined to indicate one of those four to represent him, if that's all he has to do at this point to help Knowledge forward on the Rawat-related content. The same for PatW. And Rainer P., who has become active lately. Maybe even some others (Janice Rowe? - Andries? - ...) but at least all parties that were active when this MedCab started should be invited. --
1014:“Receiving the knowledge” turned out to be a process of seeing “heavenly lights” when pressing on the eyeballs, hearing “blissful music” when the ears were stopped up, tasting “divine nectar” when the head was thrown back with the tongue turned inward, and receiving a mantra nonsense word. The sensory illusions were quite natural and easily understood physiological phenomena, the “nectar” being simply nasal secretions dripping into the throat. Only the very naive were convinced that they had been let in on some sort of celestial secret. 3097:. Of course, there is not a trace of that comment in our article on the Bible. As I said before in the RS/N discussion, try getting his comments included in that article, and in the article on the virgin birth of Jesus, based on his notability and reliability. I cannot escape the impression that a double standard is being proposed here: if it is Prem Rawat, anything goes, no matter how flippant, and if it is a respected, mainline religion, we are all polite. This is not how an encyclopedia should work. 3325:
has a history of a thousand years or more. Further, Rawat himself claims that what he teaches is not about religion; not withstanding that many of the most appropriate sources treat the Rawat movement as if it were an NRM, surely within the BLP, Rawat should be taken at his own word and not be considered as being personally equivalent to ‘a religion’ ? WP:BLP places many restrictions on how the subject can be treated, adding an equivalence to a world religion seems both excessive, and wrong.--
1611:
impression. The whole use of that quote was 'weasely' in fact. It was used to bolster the assertion that Rawat never claimed to be Divine. Furthermore I would like to see evidence of any material that has actually been inserted in the manner Jayen says, within the last few years. The editing has been almost entirely done by followers. I also object to the assumption that ex-followers are, by default 'Anti-Rawat'. I am not anti-Rawat I am anti-inaccuracies and whitewash.

didn't he have an ulcer?" was one reporter's last question to me at the end of the third evening. One news story caused me great personal embarrassment. It was written by the woman from the Village Voice who had seemed so sweet on Soul Rush. The things I had told her, hoping to explain how fanaticism and genuine spirituality coexisted in our movement, were misquoted. Other remarks, which I had made jokingly and in high spirits, she presented as my serious beliefs.
3805:. There are even assertions made that the DLM article has improved to a point that enable us to make moves of large chunks of content between articles, which in light of the many disputes still present, I would say that it is either wishful thinking, or an attempt to frame these disputes as resolved while they are not. Hereby I object to the way this is progressing, and request from the mediators to assist us with the pace and in keeping the focus in resolving 4725:. However, there's no obvious reason to do so: the Committee has formed a consensus (after private discussion) that the parties' agreement on this page (so long as it is at the above section) will be sufficient. So long as all parties agree above, the Committee will speedily accept this case, and progress it to "assigned" status. The Chair of the Committee will handle the 'paperwork' of the case: all that needs happen now, is everybody's signature. 2074: 2335:(e/c)I agree on Randi and Watts (I looked for the quote at the time, no success). With Collier we'd have to define what a third party is. Does it include (a) Rawat ("slurred") (b) Davis ("22,000") (c) other premies ("those who knew him a bit better")? If we exclude all three, nothing much would be left, IMO? Are we saying that comments about unnamed people are fine, but not comments about people who are named? 42: 2497:
started much earlier than that. One evening I sat with him and Claudia as they drank. Slowly the conversation turned from an interesting discussion to a series of slurred comments about where do the bubbles come from in champagne. This is spirituality? I thought to myself. This sort of incident and the seemingly endless difficulties Guru Maharaj Ji had with his family were wearing me out.
4972:
entrenched positions of most parties and an acceptance that a compromise 'that can be lived with' is better than never agreeing. However, I also wish to echo the comments that many skirmishes continue to relate to very trivial issues, and that this is where an experienced moderator can step in to help see the forest for the trees, actively pulling the debates away from the leaf level.
3430:, well over a thousand times. As the coverage of a figure expands, more and more fringe views can be reported. Even so, we don't seem to have Randi's views on the historicity of Jesus, except in his own article. It is unimaginable to me that his views, and the way he expresses them, would be tolerated in the Jesus article proper, as those of a significant commentator. 2048:, where there is very very little to support what jossi just said, and a lot to support that Randi is a reliable source for this) And for the third time, Randi needs more discussion, we should be discussing these one at a time, and we're currently discussing Collier. Steve, maybe you could refactor this page, and move Randi (and/or Watts) to their own sections? -- 1820:
person narrative that is great material for another writer to use, but also an example of why Knowledge avoids first person narratives, unless they are by professional journalists. For factual details, OK in a pinch if no other source; for any kind of evaluation, no. I don't see the point of augmenting really; either we already have it, or don't.
1767:
The notion of there being an equality of 'guilt' regarding POV pushing on the Rawat articles is becoming ingrained, but it is not an acurate representation of the history, perhaps in future acusations could be about named individuals who can then defend themselves if they wish, rather than blame being cast onto a group ? --
2392:
to be a point of contention. We don't want to end up in a situation where she is allowed for positive assertions but not negative ones (or vice versa). As a route forward, perhaps editors could list here what assertions they'd like to source to Collier and we can see if there's an obvious boundary line that can be drawn.

Sylviecyn: to put it as briefly as I can, formal mediation is a system better prepared to handle problems with editor conduct. As a team of experienced mediators, we are able of handling nearly any party, regardless of how poor he or she communicates and/or gets on with nearby editors. Proper decorum

I share Will's view that discussions would benefit from being moderated by an impartial facilitator who takes note of the various interests and concerns expressed and actively focuses on identifying a workable consensus between participants. I am sure such a consensus is there to be had; we just need

My view is that without context these statements do not serve NPOV, the argument that it is factually correct to say "DLM was banned in 1973 in Argentina", is not enough: Without the necessary context that statement may be factually accurate, but it is not only not NPOV, but is also misleading to our

And, as I noticed on Soul Rush, anytime the premies started to sound dumb or crazy, on went the TV lights, to the pad went the pencils. No journalist could either resist or make sense of this odd story of foolish utopians whose leader appeared to be nothing more than a fat Indian kid in a Rolls. "And

In general the festival was a bore. I enjoyed seeing all of the friends I had met in other parts of the DLM community, but from a theatrical point of view, I was disappointed. Maharaj Ji's remarks were undistinguished, and I noticed his words were slurred. There were a few light notes, though, in the

I entirely concur with Nik on this. I think it is inaccurate to accuse former followers of 'cherry-picking'to the degree demonstrated by others.

to back up claims made by others that are qualified? Answer, it's not. Her comments on the Divine/Not Divine nature of Rawat are ridiculous as well. In no way is she qualified to make the distinction she does about how others who "knew him better" felt about Rawat. Relatedly, why are we talking about

I'm not willing to declare myself to be a member of any faction, pov, or group. No way, no how, ever, ever. I'm already boxed in and labeled by editors on these articles and on Knowledge, based on off-wiki issues. I'm a free agent and intend to stay that way. Interesting idea, but no. :) I'm not

I'm fine with Plan A (formal mediation), provided that the number of formal parties are limited per the distinct possibility in this sense offered by the relevant guidance. I was thinking along the lines of Jossi-Jayen-Will-John, so 4 parties. I suppose all others can choose among those four parties
3918:
I'll continue to seek consensus before, during, and after editing. I won't wait for approval or request permission before making edits, as that would be antithetical to the philosophy of Knowledge. I'll be especially careful with edits that concern topics on the current list of topics to mediate. In

that is concerned with events that go back to at least 1930 and certainly must ‘commence’ in 1960 with the creation of the Indian organisation. If Rawat is to be treated as a ‘religious leader’ in WP articles, the disavowal of religion by Rawat needs very explicit demonstration if the reader is not

For more than two decades, Randi has been the country's skeptic- in-chief, aiming his arrow of rationalism at psychics and faith healers, mediums and mentalists. He finds his targets so preposterous and those falling for them so desperate that he has become obsessed... Michael Shermer, the publisher
2391:
As a baseline, the point about being a primary source makes sense. Collier does report on a variety of matters, matters for which there is no other source, with apparent objectivity. My concern is that if we don't agree on crystal-clear boundaries of how or when she can be used then it will continue
2020:
I have never suggested that the comments by the reliable sources noticeboard I would be bound by. Merely in this case, as I noted previously, that I'd consider using several tools in my "mediator bag", and at my discretion, I'll use the reliable sources noticeboard at my discretion, but in no way be
1661:
I have argued against Collier since day 1, in her book she says she was in the ashram for 1 month at 16, during that time she was highly experimental with LSD, and she wrote about her experience in this book 6 years later. The book is not about Rawat, or the DLM, it is a non-scholarly autobiography.
1610:
I object to the sweeping nature of Jayen's insinuation here. It is not 'always' about 'including material that is to the detriment of Rawat'. For example when I edited the Collier quote (a long time ago) it was simply to include more of it which had been formerly left out creating a distinctly wrong
1418:
I strongly object to the use of Randi in this context. He is not an encyclopedic source; he is unfamiliar with the religious tradition from which the techniques he comments on originate; his article does not even pretend to be thoroughly researched. Yes, it may be fun to read, but it has no business
1397:
If is facts are incorrect (and not only the Glastonbury date), why would his opinion be noteworthy? There are ZERO sources from scholars that make such a comment. His opinion is not that noteworthy and that is why it is not used in articles such as Sir Conan Doyle. You are welcome to add his opinion
1377:
Well, if your objection isn't reliaiblity then don't make arguments about unreliability. I am not suggesting that we use Randi for factual information. We've got plenty of descriptions of the meditation techniques (which don't disagree with the description by Randi). I'm suggesting that we use Randi
1238:
I would not cite Watts, unless we find the direct quote from Watts, and not the out-of-context remark of that journalist. I would not cite from Collier, unless the specific text from that source is not in contradiction with schloarly sources, and it only augments such sources. Randi's source I would

I don't see how formal mediation is going to change the situation with these articles. We already had ARBCOM with findings, and now we've been in MEDCAB for several months and the article hasn't moved forward much at all. It's almost as if the Rawat articles -- especially the BLP one -- is like a

2698:
What do you object to? What I've done is list the current citations in the topic, and other possible uses of the source. Once we've got a better perspective on the source it'll be easier to determine how reliable the source is. If Collier is a reliable source then there's no BLP violation. If she's
1483:
I've noticed that editors compain about using editors associated with Christian denominations. This viewpoint is skeptical rather than Christian. No other source has the same viewpoint. Randi is far better known than Collier - if his viewpoint is not notable than why is Collier's viewpoint notable?
1310:
As I said, I have no problems in citing Watts. I have a problem on citing someone that cites Watts out of context. As for Randi, there is no such a thing as a reliable source in absolute terms. As it would not be appropriate to use the flippant comments about Sir Connan Doyle, we should not use him

I don't think that we define Prem Rawat as a religious leader simply because of a legal technicality. We may be (and should be) polite towardes established religions, but we also have an enormous number of articles about criticism of those religions. Nor do we necessarily respect their wishes - we

Clearly the point is an important one, but is there in fact an analogous situation between “mainline religion” and Rawat ? Currently the core WP article is a BLP and it is very difficult to see how a BLP could ever be an analogue of an article on a religion which is supported by millions and which

I wouldn't describe that as a compromise. "Claims about 3rd-parties" and"contradicts scholarly sources" are both vague. Jossi's suggestion that the "Made her happy" is not encyclopedic hasn't been made by him before, to the best of my knowledge, and "unencyclopedic" is too vague a distinction in a

Okay, thinking it over, it seems to be clear there is a dispute over the reliability of this source, and whether the source may have been taken out of context. It isn't the role of a mediator to determine the reliability of a source, and as I'm not an expert in the field, and a mediator who really

Indeed. Let me review the recent comments, and I'll make a suggestion. I'd like to note I'm probably the least "experienced" person here, been here just over 3 months. It makes no difference really. I feel I'm still competent to mediate this. All parties that are around, please actively watch this

Steve, (and WBOSITG) I think you've read the large majority of the arguments that pertain to Sophia Collier can we get some kind of statement/opinion/ruling/suggestion/whatever yet? I think despite jossi's temporary absence, his position is clear, and Knowledge can struggle along without him for a

Msalt and Jayen: It was not my choice that Knowledge identify me as a former follower of Rawat, but once here I decided to contribute. To my knowledge only four former followers have edited the Rawat articles in the last three years, and I've not seen any evidence of cherry picking by any of 'us'.
1749:
Jayen: I agree that a lot of the ex-devotees cherry pick in the opposite direction, and I've identified this warring as the issue from the beginning. (Most of them, though, have recused themselves from editing.) I don't think that applies to Will Beback, Maelefique, you, or me, though. I guess

Here's a "Plan B": How about we stay with "informal" mediation under the MedCab with Steve, but we request the MedCom to see if any of their people could serve as co-mediator or advisor. The 2nd mediator may be able to provide methods of resolving these tangled disagreements that we haven't tried

You are right, MSalt. But then I do observe a similar bias from the other side of the debate as well -- it is always about including material that is to the detriment of Rawat, portraying him somehow as a deficient human being, often based on sources that are distinctly questionable. Perhaps both

As a general observation from an editor who had no contact with Prem Rawat or any of his followers or (bitter) ex-followers, until I started editing these articles in February -- there is a real problem with double standards for sources. The 3 consistently pro-Rawat editors (Jossi, Momento, and

It seems to me that Collier is a chatty and informative source whose phrasing could brighten up the article when her points are echoed by more scholarly sources. At the time of her writing this book she clearly had no academic record to consider, so her occasional descents into gossip should be

By amazing coincidence, Jossi's proposal would allow Collier to still be used as a reference for the pro-Rawat points (saying Rawat wasn't *really* seen as divine, saying Rawat made her happy) but not her anti-Rawat points (augmenting Mishler's statement that Rawat was drunk) and also excluding
