The Philosophy of Radha Soami Satsang Beas
The Beas branch of Radha Soami gurus teach a spiritual philosophy they say is based on the teachings of mystics from all religions. Their headquarters have been at Dera Baba Jaimal Singh, near Beas in the Amritsar district of northern India since 1891. Radha Soami Satsang Beas, with centres located worldwide, is a registered non-profit, charitable society, independent of any political or commercial affiliations. ]
