WARNING FOR THE SEEKERS OF TRUTH

 The four major institutions, religion, philosophy, yoga, and metaphysics have become antiquated and fossilized through the course of time, thus being reclassified into dead mystic schools. At one time, these doctrines thrived on the dynamic living impulse of their holy founders, but once they departed, their divine works were subjected to overly zealous disciples who all too often edited with a free hand. Power plays within the social and political structures have brought ruin to the translucence of the original teachings expounded by the founder. Regal temples and churches were erected, majestic ashrams and synagogues were built, scriptures and holy books sprang into existence, and, ironically, none of the founding Saints ever intended for this to happen.
