(1-800-827-6364) Lines: 45 SUPPRESSED Teachings of Eckankar In the book "Ask The Master, Book 1", top of page 160, Sri Harold Klemp writes: "...ECKANKAR has the same faults [(POWER POLITICS)] within its infra-structure. That's because it too is composed of many different kinds of people. --------->Some are always trying to limit the truth that comes through ECKANKAR. The rest of us do all we can to reopen the channel of truth. A never-ending struggle, but worth the trouble for many people like you.". This SUPPRESSED Truth includes the Truth about DEPARTED Masters SUCH AS JESUS CHRIST, (their INability to save us, as stated on pages 95-6 of "The Shariyat-Ki-Sugmad, Book One"), which should be at least MENTIONED, if not EMPHASIZED, in ALL Eckankar introductory material, posters, ads, and presenta- tions to the public, and in their various newsletters. If a Christian or other person voluntarily decides to read the introductory material, poster, or ad, or attend a presenta- tion, then s/he EXPECTS to be given ALL of the important facts, and NONE should be withheld. EVERY person has COMPLETE FREEDOM OF CHOICE about whether or not to read or listen to this Truth, whether or not to believe this Truth, and whether or not to act upon this Truth. But a person's Freedom of Choice IS VIOLATED when important Information is WITHHELD from him or her. There are PLENTY of DIS-satisfied Christians who would WANT to be told this important Truth but do NOT know enough to ask about it. "The Shariyat-Ki-Sugmad, Book Two", page 52, COMMANDS: "(The Mahdis) must show (to the world) that the disciple in the human body must have a Master in the human body. This is a fixed law of the SUGMAD.". Robert E. McElwaine 2nd Initiate
