'This paper is the result of a two-and-a-half year
participant-observation study in which the authors analyze the basis of Guru
Maharaj Ji's appeal to ex-movement participants in the early 1970s. The youth
movement of the 1960s had generated a reinterpretation of reality that called
into question conventional reality. When the movement declined, the movement
interpretation had no possibility for implementation. Left between a reality
they rejected and one that could not be implemented, ex-movement participants
experienced life as arbitrary and senseless. Guru Maharaj Ji was deified as the
mirror of an incomprehensible, meaningless universe.'
