In many parts of the world today, from the most modern society to the most primitive settlements, persons everywhere are claiming that they are the messiah or the "promised one". In this regard, one should exercise care in joining, associating, reading, or even to listening to them.

Here are a few guidelines to be able to spot a fake claimant to messiahship.

1. If there are claims that only he or his teachings can save your soul - a teacher is only a guide but only the person himself can save his soul.

2. If he tries to coerce you to believe in him or his teachings upon the penalty of eternal death and suffering in hell - no matter how wicked or evil a person is, he is not totally and forever beyond salvation. There is no hell to torment him; through reincarnation, he will gain wisdom to change his ways.

3. If he claims he knows God or his word is from God or that he recieves instructions, dreams, voices, and visions from God, saints or aliens - it may be an early sympton of insanity.

4. If he encourages the use of drugs and other substances foreign to the body to gain insights and universal understanding - true insight, understanding and wisdom can be gained by moderate living.

5. If there is a monetary consideration in exchange for his teachings or joining his group - true knoweledge is not witheld from the student when he is ready
