Sri Paul Twitchell
The Amazing Truth About
Paul Twitchell & Eckankar (pre-1971)
Here is the Untold and Until Now Almost Secret History of
Paul Twitchell and Pre 1971 "Eckankar"
The Almost Secret History of Paul Twitchell is that Sri Paul Twitchell took the true high path to the total awareness experience of God Realization: Eckankar non public or underground upon his death in 1971.
What does this mean for a person who is a true God seeker or the seeker of true God Realization? Read further and find out.
Paul Twitchell’s efforts were not all talk like many philosophical authors but actual firsthand out of body experience reported by thousands. For myself and thousands of individual’s our countless hours of disciplining ourselves with spiritual exercises truly paid off with out of body experiences to fascinating and breathtaking spiritual worlds and realms revealed to us beyond anything we may have expected in the human consciousness state. All of these truly liberating experiences in the spiritual worlds showed us first hand that the physical man called Sri Paul Twitchell on his inner levels is a true God Realized VARDAN Master of the highest order.
Those rare cliff hangers out there who are not trapped in dogma, religion, personality worship, and fixated opinion (which Paul warned about) may ask the question: Well what did really and truly happen after Paul Twitchell died?
For many of Paul Twitchell's students his translation was a Spiritual Test. The spiritual student is tested to see if he puts God first or puts the attachments to the lower worlds before God ITSELF. Most choose attachments. It is like what Paul Twitchell once said “the lower worlds are littered with the corpses of those who have tried and failed.”
If we look more deeply we learn what really happened in 1971 behind closed doors. After his death Paul Twitchell had only left Eckankar a list of 4 (candidates). But Paul Twitchell did not pick one! Paul Twitchell had never declared a successor. Paul Twitchell had never given the God Realization initiation. Paul Twitchell had never chosen a Living Master to follow him.
A committee of Eckankar higher initiates who were also the board of trustees made Darwin Gross their leader and declared Darwin their Spiritual Master. However unknown to most this was (not) Paul Twitchell nor was it the omniscient, omnipresent HURAY (God) but only a group of people making this selection of Darwin as their leader themselves.
Following this huge explosion of consciousness shifting change it eventually tore the body of Eckists into clashing factions of Eckists, Atomists, Dunamists, Bitter Critics, and Drifters. It was like by Paul Twitchell leaving the physical world it was figuratively like someone throwing a consciousness bomb into Eckankar and the whole thing exploding with chelas flying in every spiritual direction. Everyone was convinced that he was “right” and the other wayward “evil” chelas were “wrong”.
It was a huge mental, emotional, and spiritual shock when the true God Realized Master Paul Twitchell translated. And then it was even more a shock (for some) when he was replaced by a Leader who was not a Master but one of Paul Twitchell’s Spiritual Students. Even though Darwin Gross was on the inner planes only a 9th Initiate and NOT a God Realized Master he did his best to perpetuate what (seemed) to be the same path but wasn’t. Unknown to many, Darwin Gross did not have the rod of spiritual power. Darwin Gross although well meaning did not have the God Realization initiation. Many of Paul Twitchell’s anxious chelas sensed something was very wrong and left Eckankar.
And like the post 1971 "Eckankar" it was the same process of confusion in "Atom" which without the God Realized Master Paul Twitchell was lead by a committee or board of directors. It was a movement in the direction of following the powerful pull of the social consciousness.
Paul Twitchell had warned his students through the process of repetition “I do not repeat myself, I do not repeat myself.” He warned them like a broken record that it is a handicap of the human condition to cripple ourselves spiritually by taking the Easy route or the Easy Way. It is easier to find our answers by leaning upon the opinions, beliefs, and dogma of others or the spiritual messages of the lower worlds (filled with Maya or illusion).
Instead of dogma when we instead practice spiritual exercises and get our answers directly from divine spirit by doing Out-of-body Tuza Travel in the pure positive God Worlds (higher heaven) we find direction and indescribable freedom.
Then we can have false safety and be like a spiritual child by letting someone else think for us. This meek, compliant state is not the kind of trail blazer or cliff hanger that Paul Twitchell was talking about. No, Paul Twitchell who touted himself a Spiritual trail blazer (which he was counter to the efforts to water him down) said to his students that finding the answers for ourselves in the pure positive God Worlds of total awareness and freedom IS the only way to get true spiritual direction and answer that doesn’t lead back to the lower worlds of M.E.S.T. )
Upon Paul Twichell's Death In 1971 Eckankar The High Path Goes Non-Public The almost secret history about Paul Twitchell is that after those 6 amazing years of out of body experiences for his students (following Paul Twitchell's death) Paul Twitchell (unknown to most) made the high spiritual path of what was once called by the outer label “Eckankar” Non-Public by handing the spiritual Rod of Power to the Eagle Eyed Adept and great Spiritual Master Rebazar Tarzs. Rebazar Tarzs was Sri Paul Twitchell's Spiritual Mentor and Guide and an Ancient VARDAN Master in what IS today called the high teaching of VARDANKAR. (It was called Eckankar is Paul Twitchel's time) Rebazar Tarzs has been the Spiritual Teacher of Teachers and the Torch Bearer of the high path to God Realization for hundreds of years.
After Paul Twitchell Stepped Back Rebazar Tarzs Stepped Foward
Often in countless times past and throughout history when a God Realized VARDAN Master like Paul Twitchell would pass over, the Torch Bearer or today Rebazar Tarzs would step forward to guide the way and set up a transition for the next step under the omnipresent HURAY (God's) direction.
After 1971 the VARDAN Master Rebazar Tarzs was able to work with the few Paul Twitchell Initiates who were in a state of keeping their awareness in the God Worlds and being, seeing and knowing. These few Paul Twitchell initiates got their answers from the high Pure Positive God planes (Soul plane and above) and therefore were in the consciousness to Know on the inner planes what IS. Most of Paul Twithcell's students however were confused or even lost or relied on social channels to clear up their confusion.
Paul Twitchell Did Not Pick Darwin Gross
Paul Twitchell did not give the Rod of Spiritual Power to Darwin Gross. Paul Twitchell did not pick Darwin Gross. One of Darwin’s earliest statements when receiving the leadership role in Eckankar was that he felt they had made a mistake.
The personality of the Master is always a Spiritual Test for the student. This is why throughout the course of all history when a Master like Paul Twitchell has passed over, various offshoots paths grow under the direction of the confused students themselves.
This is because as Paul Twitchell warned, individuals often attach themselves to the personality of a Master (personality worship) or the trappings of the outer path and are too fixated to listen to divine spirit instead of powerful social influences.
Paul Twitchell's Warning Ignored
Paul Twitchell knew from having looked at the Soul records on the Soul plane that in countless past incarnations dogma, personality, religion, opinion and so forth were the very blocks which trapped most Souls in the lower worlds of time and space for millions of it's incarnations. But given the mystique of outer appearances of credible personalities and beautiful spiritual buildings like as Allenji has said is as a “Hollywood set painted on flat wooden boards.” Some individuals sensed a hollowness in the new "religion" like theatrical props and creations and blissful lower heaven theatrics that followed after Paul Twitchell's path to God.
With out Paul Twitchell or the God Realized Master like Paul Twitchell often individuals become as leaves blown by the social winds and as a result have no control of their spiritual lives even though the negative force will give us the very believable illusion that we do by giving us mesmerizing or magical experiences in the lower heavens or lower world miracles of M.E.S.T, matter, energy, time and space.
Dogma, opinion, religion, personality worship become our spiritual bread and water. Instead we can make out of body travel to the God Realms and God ITSELF our bread and water instead of the things of the lower worlds. These are all the very things which Paul Twitchell himself warned his students of as the greatest dangers to thwart soul's returning to the HURAY (God).
With Out Paul Twitchell "Eckankar" Became An Offshoot Path
Without the God Realized VARDAN Master Sri Paul Twitchell, "Eckankar" became an offshoot. At that moment after Paul Twitchell's death "Eckankar" immediately became an offshoot, spin off, derivative, fragment, or lesser teaching instead of the high path back to God as it had been under Paul Twitchell. The high path must always have a true God Realized Master like Paul Twitchell who holds the Rod of Power otherwise it is always an offshoot no matter what it is named even by Paul Twitchell himself. The name "Eckankar" did not make it the high path.
Once the true God Realized Master leaves and there is a name change everything changes. It is like pointing to a dog and calling it a horse. The name no longer fits. After Paul Twitchell’s death Eckankar is a completely different animal.
The high path must have a holder of the rod of power like Paul Twitchell. Paul Twitchell held it. Darwin Gross and Harold Klemp while well meaning never held the rod of spiritual power nor where they ever “Eck” or VARDAN Masters as Paul Twitchell is and was.
An Offshoot With Out A God Realized Master Like Paul Twitchell Does Not Lead To God Realization Today the path with the outer name of "Eckankar" does not actually lead to the spiritual state called God Realization as it did under Paul Twitchell. This is apparent as upon speaking to a large number of higher initiates in the Eckankar offshoot religion (after Paul Twitchell's Eckankar) many individuals shared that in spite of studying for 35 or 40 years with success in out of body travel they felt they could not go beyond a certain level no matter how hard they tried. They in a sense hit what one VARDAN Master termed “The glass ceiling” of Eckankar.
This means essentially that in offshoot Eckankar there is a spiritual glass ceiling that blocks one from ever reaching God Realization. This is because Harold Klemp although well meaning is not a God Realized Master but a Student of Paul Twitchell. Reaching the 5th Initiation gives one what looks like very advanced spiritual consciousness and special powers or abilities such as being able to meet students in out of body experiences. However although a 5th Initiate is spiritually advanced he cannot give the God Realization Initiation and in an offshoot path he cannot bring the individual beyond the state called Cosmic Consciousness.
It is as Sri Allen Feldman has said that a tiny airplane can fly several miles high which gives one the illusion of great flight. However the tiny airplane does not have the spiritual power and momentum to fly many miles beyond the Earth’s atmosphere into deep space itself. It is the same spiritually as one who is only a student and 5th Initiate of Paul Twitchell like Harold Klemp can only bring the student so far to perhaps the edge of the lower worlds but not beyond it. Out of body travel to the heights of the astral plane does not free the Soul. A true God Realized Master like Paul Twitchell who has the rod of power and can. But in offshoot Eckankar under a 5th initiate the individual who is a true God seeker cannot reach God Realization in this lifetime even at full throttle.
After Paul Twitchell Died Many Gave Up on God Realization
Some higher initiates have shared confidentially in solemn voices that after forty years they realized it just wasn’t happening. It just isn't possible in this lifetime to reach God Realization and they “gave up.” They fully believed that they failed. And they remained on the path to just continue their training and instead of God Realization made “spiritual service” their new and highest spiritual goal.
What these individuals did not know is that they did not fail by lack of ability but instead they failed by choosing dogma, opinion, religion, social compliance first. Most people prefer the well worn road. It takes a different sort of boldness and consciousness to take the less beaten trail, such as what Paul Twitchell called a trail blazer. It is like Robert Frost once said: Two paths diverged in a wood and I choose the one less traveled by.”
They higher initiates blamed themselves instead of realizing that they were not following a true Eck or VARDAN Master let alone a God Realized Master who held the rod of VARDAN power like Paul Twitchell. Therefore there was nothing wrong with them except that they were attempting to follow a leader and religion rather then the high path like Paul Twitchell's. Having forgotten Paul Twitchell's directions many have said that truly returning to God will happen only in the "next" life. This is a trick that the negative power often uses to trap Souls into dogma and religion as Paul Twitchell warned by getting the individual to feel he will never be perfect enough, never be good enough to be the radiant particle of God he already IS and BE a God Realized Soul in this lifetime now.
One VARDAN Master once said that in the offshoot Eckankar the true state of God Realization is (always) in the (next) life. This is because Eckankar with out Paul Twitchell no longer leads to God Realization and many individuals blame themselves.
Paul Twitchell had stated publicly that his greatest challange was dealing with the failure consciousness of his chelas. Without a true VARDAN Master and holder of the Rod of Power such as Paul Twitchell the old chelas or students quickly fell into the very failure consciousness that Paul Twitchell warned about and ended up blaming themselves for what they thought were their short comings but were in fact for the most part due to Eckankar having gone non-public and losing Paul Twitchell as it's Master.
An offshoot may be able to link the individual with a light and sound current of the lower realms. But A true VARDAN Master like Paul Twitchell lifts the individual up into the pure positive God Worlds. Paul Twitchell would link his chelas or students with the Eck or VARDAN at a high level that Masters who are inferior to Paul Twitchell in consciousness cannot accomplish. The student that is linked to the spiritual power by a lesser Master may have phenomenal experiences in the impressive lower realms of M.E.S.T. but he is as Allenji has said "He is like a small propeller driven air plane attempting high orbit over the Earth. Such an airplane would have no hope of going beyond say five or six miles let alone the hundred miles required to reach space. The student who desires self and God realization faces the same futile challenge under an offshoot path."
One who is (not) a true VARDAN Master will take advantage of this self condemnation of the student and tell the student that he is not worthy and will not become worthy in this lifetime and will excessively point out the flaw of the student. All of this is an excuse as to why the student cannot reach God Realization. He is then directed to instead worship the personality of the false Master.
Many of Paul Twitchell's Students Report Breathtaking Experiences
of Heaven Paul Twitchell tirelessly worked day and night to compile a massive amount of books, discourses, manuals, global lectures, and personal letters. (Many of these over the years have been slowly discontinued.) All of these efforts of Paul Twitchell resulted in dramatically shifting many of Paul Twithcell's students from feeling like Earth bound prisoners in the worlds of reincarnation to having life changing out of body experiences unlike anything they ever thought was possible. Many of Paul Twitchell's students were lifted to breathtaking levels of heaven far beyond the heavens reported in NDE’s. Having experienced these heavens myself countless times I can say Paul Twitchell transformed my life and the lives of nearly all of the people I am close to.
The true God seeker will not rest until he finds the true God Realized Master who can help him return to God ITSELF. The unready soul will settle into the comfort of dogma. Paul Twitchell was such a God Realized VARDAN Master.
Paul Twitchell through his writing had the amazing ability to unlock doors into worlds of heaven that few people dare tread or are even aware of but that Paul Twitchell wrote and spoke of often. Its ironic that people who failed to have the open mindedness, patience and determination to learn out of body travel for themselves fail to see the spiritual worlds as more then fantasy and Paul as a fantasy spinner.
In doing this they close the door to worlds unknown.
Paul Twitchell Affirmed Our Experiences of The God Worlds Are Real
One who is not a true VARDAN Master such as Paul Twitchell was but in an offshoot will tell the student that any of his experiences in the pure positive God Worlds are illusions. But as Allenji pointed out Paul Twitchell has always said that “The initiate always dwells in the higher worlds.” Allenji then added, “Paul didn’t say the Higher Initiate he said the Initiate.”
As Harold was well meaning but Not selected by the omniscient, omnipresent HURAY ITSELF he is therefore not the Living VARDAN Master and does not have the spiritual ability to move souls to the higher spiritual states like God Realization.
After Paul Twitchell's Death Rebazar Tarzs Held The Rod of Power For 17 years As mentioned a moment ago what actually had occurred after Paul Twitchell's death is that Rebazar Tarzs held the Rod of Spiritual Power for over a decade. Many long years went by since Paul Twitchell's death or translation before the next Living “ECK” Master was ready in 1988. After Paul Twitchell this Master gathered a small band of initiates and did not take the necessary efforts that Paul Twitchell did to bring the high path more into the public lime light where it could be found by clamoring souls longing to return to God.
After Paul Twitchell The Next Master Did Not Complete In His Spiritual Mission Unlike Paul Twitchell who wrote many books and traveled around the world lecturing this next Master reached less students. In fact very few were able to find this almost hidden small band which perhaps resembled smaller VARDANKAR groupings of earlier eras before there was global travel. This Master who was the successor of Paul Twitchell managed to train several individuals up to the level of God Realization which was an important accomplishment but unfortunately he was unable to accomplish his spiritual mission to have the high path (as Paul Twitchell did) reach more of the God seeking souls who needed it most.
Paul Twitchell's First Successor
This is why there seemed to be no alternative to the offshoot Religion for those who felt something was wrong after Paul Twitchell died. This Living VARDAN Master who followed Paul Twitchell did not complete his mission. It was at this point in 2013 that Rebazar Tarz again took the Rod of VARDAN Power for one year while training and preparing the next Master who was the true successor. The Ancient VARDAN Masters had decided that the previous Master who had fallen because of anger and vanity was not doing his spiritual mission so that the HURAY (God) could have the truly ready souls return to IT.
One of Paul Twithcell's chelas who had a very deep longing for God and God Realization when his longing reached it's very height and he was in a state of deep pain and sadness this initiate was taken into the pure positive God Worlds by Yaubl Sacabi. Here he had a realization of total awareness and searing white light and sound. It became obvious that the religion that followed Paul Twitchell’s teachings influenced him to see himself as unworthy of returning to God ITSELF even though he was skilled at out of body travel for 29 years. This initiate explained that he felt "useless to God" because he was restricted to serve in Eckankar. And like Paul Twitchell he did not feel worthy but was told by the spiritual hierarchy in harmony with HURAY (God) that he was to be what is now called the next Margatma, the Living VARDAN Master.
Exciting News! The Current Margatma, The Living VARDAN Master
Has Just Gone Public- Currently as of October 22, 2013 this initiate after training with the Ancient VARDAN Masters became the next true successor. The true successor to receive the Spiritual Rod of Power is Sri Allen Feldman (his spiritual name is Nye Dah Zah) who under the guidance of Rebazar Tarzs and Yaubl Sacabi is now bringing the high path now called VARDANKAR public once again! This is exciting for the individual who truly wants to return to HURAY (God) because the high path has been nearly invisible or on the outer sometimes unavailable for many years. For some this is great, exciting news because the long wait is finally over! It was Paul Twitchell himself who on the inner planes guided Allenji back to the true high path of a different name. The HURAY (God) desired that more souls be reached with the most direct route to return to IT.
VARDANKAR is the same as (old time) Eckankar before Paul Twitchell translated. It is not the outer shell like a dried husk but the true essence from which flows the pure positive light and sound from the HURAY.
It is like the pipe that goes on and on in a long unbroken lineage of VARDAN Masters where a Master like Paul Twitchell inspires students for 6 amazing years and then dies and for a moment the pipe only appears to shoot in another direction (the offshoot) while the high path, the true high path of Paul Twitchell, this pipe continues on and on in one continuous unbroken direction, the same direction that it has gone for thousands and thousands of years.
The Ancient Masters Have Given The Path The Name VARDANKAR
It is exactly the same path under a new name. The name of the path has changed countless times before and during recorded history as has the name of the Master changed countless times. But many of the thousands of VARDANKAR students reborn into this new lifetime can themselves recall lifetimes of working with the VARDAN Masters like Paul Twitchell in every culture and age.
VARDANKAR is headed by the Ancient Spiritual Order of Bourchakoun VARDAN Masters which include Paul Twitchell himself. The offshoot paths such as offshoot Eckankar after Paul Twitchells' death that falsely claim the VARDAN Masters support their offshoot path that does not lead to God Realization are mistaken.
The VARDAN Masters instead reach out to their students no matter what religion or ideal they choose however the Ancient VARDAN Masters will not interfere in showing the student the way to God Realization unless he gives the ancient Masters permission to do so.
As Paul Twitchell said: VARDANKAR Is Not For The Masses But the Bold Individual Ready For Self and God Realization Now However the vast majority of students in the offshoot religion will not be interested in VARDANKAR because it is usually the few independent spirits, outside the spiritual crowds who are driven enough as cliff hangers who long for God more then they long for social support who will be attracted to VARDANKAR.
One individual shared that for many years he was angry at Paul but then one day he realized that he was blaming Paul for the spiritual dissatisfaction he felt. He felt like he did not progress the way he really wanted to. He explained that when he was younger he just didn't have enough desire for God to be able to leave his body. He shared that many years later he stopped feeling anger at Paul and instead decided to dramatically shift his attention to instead make his spiritual life incredible. His desire for God and his desire for out of body travel was so much stronger this time around and as a result he felt totally blown away that he began having the sorts of out of body experiences he only dreamed about in his younger years.
Regardless of what ever path we are on or lack there of or how advanced and wise not advanced we think we are or aren't, we all are deeply loved by God and God wants us to come home to it. Some may appear to look further along or further behind but in actuality time does not exist and we ALL ride the same wave home to God. Outer paths, personalities and words mean nothing as what matters most is when we drop preconceptions and follow our heart even if that leads us in a direction that others look at with judgementalness instead of the eyes of spirit.
One student for example asked Paul Twitchell on the inner planes for spiritual guidance to return to God and immediately this student shared that he immediately found the VARDANKAR website with in hours of the site appearing. Sri Allen Feldman was asked by the Ancient Masters to step forward as the current Margatma, The Living VARDAN Master to assist individuals to learn out of body Tuza Travel. Allen is talented at out of body Tuza travel and individuals have shared that his instruction in Tuza Travel has helped them profoundly experience a level of spiritual freedom they longed for but once didn't think was possible until they experienced these realms of light and wisdom.
The high path as it was under Paul Twitchell is offered once again but not under the "Eckankar" name but as VARDANKAR instead. It is exciting for the path to reemerge to assist us in meeting our destiny to return to the HURAY (God) in the Ocean of Love and Mercy to serve it for all eternity.atma, The Living VARDAN Master.

Paul Twitchell & Eckankar (pre-1971)
Here is the Untold and Until Now Almost Secret History of
Paul Twitchell and Pre 1971 "Eckankar"
The Almost Secret History of Paul Twitchell is that Sri Paul Twitchell took the true high path to the total awareness experience of God Realization: Eckankar non public or underground upon his death in 1971.
What does this mean for a person who is a true God seeker or the seeker of true God Realization? Read further and find out.
Paul Twitchell’s efforts were not all talk like many philosophical authors but actual firsthand out of body experience reported by thousands. For myself and thousands of individual’s our countless hours of disciplining ourselves with spiritual exercises truly paid off with out of body experiences to fascinating and breathtaking spiritual worlds and realms revealed to us beyond anything we may have expected in the human consciousness state. All of these truly liberating experiences in the spiritual worlds showed us first hand that the physical man called Sri Paul Twitchell on his inner levels is a true God Realized VARDAN Master of the highest order.
Those rare cliff hangers out there who are not trapped in dogma, religion, personality worship, and fixated opinion (which Paul warned about) may ask the question: Well what did really and truly happen after Paul Twitchell died?
For many of Paul Twitchell's students his translation was a Spiritual Test. The spiritual student is tested to see if he puts God first or puts the attachments to the lower worlds before God ITSELF. Most choose attachments. It is like what Paul Twitchell once said “the lower worlds are littered with the corpses of those who have tried and failed.”
If we look more deeply we learn what really happened in 1971 behind closed doors. After his death Paul Twitchell had only left Eckankar a list of 4 (candidates). But Paul Twitchell did not pick one! Paul Twitchell had never declared a successor. Paul Twitchell had never given the God Realization initiation. Paul Twitchell had never chosen a Living Master to follow him.
A committee of Eckankar higher initiates who were also the board of trustees made Darwin Gross their leader and declared Darwin their Spiritual Master. However unknown to most this was (not) Paul Twitchell nor was it the omniscient, omnipresent HURAY (God) but only a group of people making this selection of Darwin as their leader themselves.
Following this huge explosion of consciousness shifting change it eventually tore the body of Eckists into clashing factions of Eckists, Atomists, Dunamists, Bitter Critics, and Drifters. It was like by Paul Twitchell leaving the physical world it was figuratively like someone throwing a consciousness bomb into Eckankar and the whole thing exploding with chelas flying in every spiritual direction.

Paul Twitchell's Warning Ignored
Paul Twitchell knew from having looked at the Soul records on the Soul plane that in countless past incarnations dogma, personality, religion, opinion and so forth were the very blocks which trapped most Souls in the lower worlds of time and space for millions of it's incarnations. But given the mystique of outer appearances of credible personalities and beautiful spiritual buildings like as Allenji has said is as a “Hollywood set painted on flat wooden boards.” Some individuals sensed a hollowness in the new "religion" like theatrical props and creations and blissful lower heaven theatrics that followed after Paul Twitchell's path to God.
With out Paul Twitchell or the God Realized Master like Paul Twitchell often individuals become as leaves blown by the social winds and as a result have no control of their spiritual lives even though the negative force will give us the very believable illusion that we do by giving us mesmerizing or magical experiences in the lower heavens or lower world miracles of M.E.S.T, matter, energy, time and space.
Dogma, opinion, religion, personality worship become our spiritual bread and water. Instead we can make out of body travel to the God Realms and God ITSELF our bread and water instead of the things of the lower worlds.

An Offshoot With Out A God Realized Master Like Paul Twitchell Does Not Lead To God Realization Today the path with the outer name of "Eckankar" does not actually lead to the spiritual state called God Realization as it did under Paul Twitchell. This is apparent as upon speaking to a large number of higher initiates in the Eckankar offshoot religion (after Paul Twitchell's Eckankar) many individuals shared that in spite of studying for 35 or 40 years with success in out of body travel they felt they could not go beyond a certain level no matter how hard they tried. They in a sense hit what one VARDAN Master termed “The glass ceiling” of Eckankar.
This means essentially that in offshoot Eckankar there is a spiritual glass ceiling that blocks one from ever reaching God Realization. This is because Harold Klemp although well meaning is not a God Realized Master but a Student of Paul Twitchell. Reaching the 5th Initiation gives one what looks like very advanced spiritual consciousness and special powers or abilities such as being able to meet students in out of body experiences. However although a 5th Initiate is spiritually advanced he cannot give the God Realization Initiation and in an offshoot path he cannot bring the individual beyond the state called Cosmic Consciousness.
It is as Sri Allen Feldman has said that a tiny airplane can fly several miles high which gives one the illusion of great flight. However the tiny airplane does not have the spiritual power and momentum to fly many miles beyond the Earth’s atmosphere into deep space itself. It is the same spiritually as one who is only a student and 5th Initiate of Paul Twitchell like Harold Klemp can only bring the student so far to perhaps the edge of the lower worlds but not beyond it. Out of body travel to the heights of the astral plane does not free the Soul. A true God Realized Master like Paul Twitchell who has the rod of power and can. But in offshoot Eckankar under a 5th initiate the individual who is a true God seeker cannot reach God Realization in this lifetime even at full throttle.
After Paul Twitchell Died Many Gave Up on God Realization
Some higher initiates have shared confidentially in solemn voices that after forty years they realized it just wasn’t happening. It just isn't possible in this lifetime to reach God Realization and they “gave up.” They fully believed that they failed. And they remained on the path to just continue their training and instead of God Realization made “spiritual service” their new and highest spiritual goal.
What these individuals did not know is that they did not fail by lack of ability but instead they failed by choosing dogma, opinion, religion, social compliance first. Most people prefer the well worn road. It takes a different sort of boldness and consciousness to take the less beaten trail, such as what Paul Twitchell called a trail blazer. It is like Robert Frost once said: Two paths diverged in a wood and I choose the one less traveled by.”
They higher initiates blamed themselves instead of realizing that they were not following a true Eck or VARDAN Master let alone a God Realized Master who held the rod of VARDAN power like Paul Twitchell. Therefore there was nothing wrong with them except that they were attempting to follow a leader and religion rather then the high path like Paul Twitchell's. Having forgotten Paul Twitchell's directions many have said that truly returning to God will happen only in the "next" life. This is a trick that the negative power often uses to trap Souls into dogma and religion as Paul Twitchell warned by getting the individual to feel he will never be perfect enough, never be good enough to be the radiant particle of God he already IS and BE a God Realized Soul in this lifetime now.
One VARDAN Master once said that in the offshoot Eckankar the true state of God Realization is (always) in the (next) life. This is because Eckankar with out Paul Twitchell no longer leads to God Realization and many individuals blame themselves.
Paul Twitchell had stated publicly that his greatest challange was dealing with the failure consciousness of his chelas. Without a true VARDAN Master and holder of the Rod of Power such as Paul Twitchell the old chelas or students quickly fell into the very failure consciousness that Paul Twitchell warned about and ended up blaming themselves for what they thought were their short comings but were in fact for the most part due to Eckankar having gone non-public and losing Paul Twitchell as it's Master.
An offshoot may be able to link the individual with a light and sound current of the lower realms. But A true VARDAN Master like Paul Twitchell lifts the individual up into the pure positive God Worlds. Paul Twitchell would link his chelas or students with the Eck or VARDAN at a high level that Masters who are inferior to Paul Twitchell in consciousness cannot accomplish. The student that is linked to the spiritual power by a lesser Master may have phenomenal experiences in the impressive lower realms of M.E.S.T. but he is as Allenji has said "He is like a small propeller driven air plane attempting high orbit over the Earth. Such an airplane would have no hope of going beyond say five or six miles let alone the hundred miles required to reach space. The student who desires self and God realization faces the same futile challenge under an offshoot path."
One who is (not) a true VARDAN Master will take advantage of this self condemnation of the student and tell the student that he is not worthy and will not become worthy in this lifetime and will excessively point out the flaw of the student. All of this is an excuse as to why the student cannot reach God Realization. He is then directed to instead worship the personality of the false Master.
Many of Paul Twitchell's Students Report Breathtaking Experiences
of Heaven Paul Twitchell tirelessly worked day and night to compile a massive amount of books, discourses, manuals, global lectures, and personal letters. (Many of these over the years have been slowly discontinued.) All of these efforts of Paul Twitchell resulted in dramatically shifting many of Paul Twithcell's students from feeling like Earth bound prisoners in the worlds of reincarnation to having life changing out of body experiences unlike anything they ever thought was possible. Many of Paul Twitchell's students were lifted to breathtaking levels of heaven far beyond the heavens reported in NDE’s. Having experienced these heavens myself countless times I can say Paul Twitchell transformed my life and the lives of nearly all of the people I am close to.
The true God seeker will not rest until he finds the true God Realized Master who can help him return to God ITSELF. The unready soul will settle into the comfort of dogma. Paul Twitchell was such a God Realized VARDAN Master.
Paul Twitchell through his writing had the amazing ability to unlock doors into worlds of heaven that few people dare tread or are even aware of but that Paul Twitchell wrote and spoke of often. Its ironic that people who failed to have the open mindedness, patience and determination to learn out of body travel for themselves fail to see the spiritual worlds as more then fantasy and Paul as a fantasy spinner.
In doing this they close the door to worlds unknown.
Paul Twitchell Affirmed Our Experiences of The God Worlds Are Real
One who is not a true VARDAN Master such as Paul Twitchell was but in an offshoot will tell the student that any of his experiences in the pure positive God Worlds are illusions. But as Allenji pointed out Paul Twitchell has always said that “The initiate always dwells in the higher worlds.” Allenji then added, “Paul didn’t say the Higher Initiate he said the Initiate.”
As Harold was well meaning but Not selected by the omniscient, omnipresent HURAY ITSELF he is therefore not the Living VARDAN Master and does not have the spiritual ability to move souls to the higher spiritual states like God Realization.
After Paul Twitchell's Death Rebazar Tarzs Held The Rod of Power For 17 years As mentioned a moment ago what actually had occurred after Paul Twitchell's death is that Rebazar Tarzs held the Rod of Spiritual Power for over a decade. Many long years went by since Paul Twitchell's death or translation before the next Living “ECK” Master was ready in 1988. After Paul Twitchell this Master gathered a small band of initiates and did not take the necessary efforts that Paul Twitchell did to bring the high path more into the public lime light where it could be found by clamoring souls longing to return to God.
After Paul Twitchell The Next Master Did Not Complete In His Spiritual Mission Unlike Paul Twitchell who wrote many books and traveled around the world lecturing this next Master reached less students. In fact very few were able to find this almost hidden small band which perhaps resembled smaller VARDANKAR groupings of earlier eras before there was global travel. This Master who was the successor of Paul Twitchell managed to train several individuals up to the level of God Realization which was an important accomplishment but unfortunately he was unable to accomplish his spiritual mission to have the high path (as Paul Twitchell did) reach more of the God seeking souls who needed it most.
Paul Twitchell's First Successor
This is why there seemed to be no alternative to the offshoot Religion for those who felt something was wrong after Paul Twitchell died. This Living VARDAN Master who followed Paul Twitchell did not complete his mission. It was at this point in 2013 that Rebazar Tarz again took the Rod of VARDAN Power for one year while training and preparing the next Master who was the true successor. The Ancient VARDAN Masters had decided that the previous Master who had fallen because of anger and vanity was not doing his spiritual mission so that the HURAY (God) could have the truly ready souls return to IT.
One of Paul Twithcell's chelas who had a very deep longing for God and God Realization when his longing reached it's very height and he was in a state of deep pain and sadness this initiate was taken into the pure positive God Worlds by Yaubl Sacabi. Here he had a realization of total awareness and searing white light and sound. It became obvious that the religion that followed Paul Twitchell’s teachings influenced him to see himself as unworthy of returning to God ITSELF even though he was skilled at out of body travel for 29 years. This initiate explained that he felt "useless to God" because he was restricted to serve in Eckankar. And like Paul Twitchell he did not feel worthy but was told by the spiritual hierarchy in harmony with HURAY (God) that he was to be what is now called the next Margatma, the Living VARDAN Master.
Exciting News! The Current Margatma, The Living VARDAN Master
Has Just Gone Public- Currently as of October 22, 2013 this initiate after training with the Ancient VARDAN Masters became the next true successor. The true successor to receive the Spiritual Rod of Power is Sri Allen Feldman (his spiritual name is Nye Dah Zah) who under the guidance of Rebazar Tarzs and Yaubl Sacabi is now bringing the high path now called VARDANKAR public once again! This is exciting for the individual who truly wants to return to HURAY (God) because the high path has been nearly invisible or on the outer sometimes unavailable for many years. For some this is great, exciting news because the long wait is finally over! It was Paul Twitchell himself who on the inner planes guided Allenji back to the true high path of a different name. The HURAY (God) desired that more souls be reached with the most direct route to return to IT.
VARDANKAR is the same as (old time) Eckankar before Paul Twitchell translated. It is not the outer shell like a dried husk but the true essence from which flows the pure positive light and sound from the HURAY.
It is like the pipe that goes on and on in a long unbroken lineage of VARDAN Masters where a Master like Paul Twitchell inspires students for 6 amazing years and then dies and for a moment the pipe only appears to shoot in another direction (the offshoot) while the high path, the true high path of Paul Twitchell, this pipe continues on and on in one continuous unbroken direction, the same direction that it has gone for thousands and thousands of years.
The Ancient Masters Have Given The Path The Name VARDANKAR
It is exactly the same path under a new name. The name of the path has changed countless times before and during recorded history as has the name of the Master changed countless times. But many of the thousands of VARDANKAR students reborn into this new lifetime can themselves recall lifetimes of working with the VARDAN Masters like Paul Twitchell in every culture and age.
VARDANKAR is headed by the Ancient Spiritual Order of Bourchakoun VARDAN Masters which include Paul Twitchell himself. The offshoot paths such as offshoot Eckankar after Paul Twitchells' death that falsely claim the VARDAN Masters support their offshoot path that does not lead to God Realization are mistaken.
The VARDAN Masters instead reach out to their students no matter what religion or ideal they choose however the Ancient VARDAN Masters will not interfere in showing the student the way to God Realization unless he gives the ancient Masters permission to do so.
As Paul Twitchell said: VARDANKAR Is Not For The Masses But the Bold Individual Ready For Self and God Realization Now However the vast majority of students in the offshoot religion will not be interested in VARDANKAR because it is usually the few independent spirits, outside the spiritual crowds who are driven enough as cliff hangers who long for God more then they long for social support who will be attracted to VARDANKAR.
One individual shared that for many years he was angry at Paul but then one day he realized that he was blaming Paul for the spiritual dissatisfaction he felt. He felt like he did not progress the way he really wanted to. He explained that when he was younger he just didn't have enough desire for God to be able to leave his body. He shared that many years later he stopped feeling anger at Paul and instead decided to dramatically shift his attention to instead make his spiritual life incredible. His desire for God and his desire for out of body travel was so much stronger this time around and as a result he felt totally blown away that he began having the sorts of out of body experiences he only dreamed about in his younger years.
Regardless of what ever path we are on or lack there of or how advanced and wise not advanced we think we are or aren't, we all are deeply loved by God and God wants us to come home to it. Some may appear to look further along or further behind but in actuality time does not exist and we ALL ride the same wave home to God. Outer paths, personalities and words mean nothing as what matters most is when we drop preconceptions and follow our heart even if that leads us in a direction that others look at with judgementalness instead of the eyes of spirit.
One student for example asked Paul Twitchell on the inner planes for spiritual guidance to return to God and immediately this student shared that he immediately found the VARDANKAR website with in hours of the site appearing. Sri Allen Feldman was asked by the Ancient Masters to step forward as the current Margatma, The Living VARDAN Master to assist individuals to learn out of body Tuza Travel. Allen is talented at out of body Tuza travel and individuals have shared that his instruction in Tuza Travel has helped them profoundly experience a level of spiritual freedom they longed for but once didn't think was possible until they experienced these realms of light and wisdom.
The high path as it was under Paul Twitchell is offered once again but not under the "Eckankar" name but as VARDANKAR instead. It is exciting for the path to reemerge to assist us in meeting our destiny to return to the HURAY (God) in the Ocean of Love and Mercy to serve it for all eternity.atma, The Living VARDAN Master.
