Categories and ratings explained on home page, see 
below (‡) for more

* Disappeared and Unrated are two ways of dealing with status changes. The first is a listing of those whose sites can no longer be found, the second those who are now deemed to be of less major impact, moved from rated to an unrated category.

* Articles include many writings, mostly by others, grouped into five main topic-areas: Master-Disciple Relationship, More on Particular Gurus, The Path in General, SGRS-Related, and Humour. In particular among the SGRS-related articles are: ‡More on the four categories of rated masters, ‡More on ratings criteria and ‡More on the significance of the ratings. Basic info on these ideas can be found on the Home page. As well, there are two pages for criticisms, general and pointed, and Suggestions.

* Other Links is a more generalized approach to links to help you find what you're looking for. The links, to other spiritually-themed sites, are organized into categories: General Lists, Magazines, Advaita, Buddhist, Christian, Other Mainstream, Women, Sufis, Sant Mat/Radhasoami, Yoga, Tantra, Tao, New Age, Indian Saints, Native, Cultbusters, Academic, Books, Personal, and Miscellaneous. Also included is a discussion of Webrings and Email lists.

* Archives is a list of who among my listees has contributed to or been discussed in the Guru Ratings Forum, hosted by Yahoo!

* Reports is an expandable series of, well, reports, on satsangs attended by non-affiliated contributors.

* Tales is an expandable series of, well, tales, of more intimate encounters by non-affiliated contributors.

* Awakenings is, duh, an expandable series of accounts of the masters' "enlightenment events," usually in first person

^§ Listings in each category page are done alphabetically but not necessarily by the last name. This could arise for many reasons, the most obvious being that the last name is a title, eg Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj, listed under N, or many teachers preferring to be known by their first name, or cultural / linguistic conventions in their country of origin leaning towards first or middle name, eg some Spanish countries. Many possibilities, often an uneducated guess.

Happy searching!
