Santmat came into existence in the mid-1850 and then Shiv Dayal Singh had handful of followers in Agra’ However, his teachings eventually attracted disciples from across India and by the time of his death in 1878, Shiv Dayal had several thousands of followers. He died on 15 June 1878 in Agra, India.
Shiv Dayal Singh's wife, Narayani Devi (called Radhaji), Rai Saligram (called Huzur Maharaj), Sanmukh Das, Gharib Das, Partap Singh (Shiv Dayal's younger brother) and Baba Jaimal Singh were some of his prominent followers around whom individual satsang groups formed. This splintering off, led to the propagation of Radhasoami teachings to a wider audience, although with slightly varied interpretations.

1. Does the RSSB, SANTMAT being Science of the Soul, have Research wing?
2. Does the MASTER/GURU of RSSB have any background or knowledge of scientific approach after having obtained his Bachelor's degree in Commerce from Punjab University, CHANDIGARH?
3. If so, whether its achievements, to the present modern level of development have been updated?
4. If so, details of changes made in its philosophy, way back from mid 1850, need to be provided for the welfare of RSSB’s devotees.
5. Reincarnation leads to many, many physical births and deaths i.e. humans from animals and other living things through karmic law and reincarnation in another life. Then why is there duality to encourage eating plants by killing them and not animals? Is it only because of differential in their Quantity, not quality, of brain’s consciousness? While doing so use of flu shot is restricted but blood donation or donation of human organs even that of non-vegetarian humans is not taken care of by RSSB?
6. Whether any research has been done on the impact of its philosophy causing lot of stress due to following or some other reasons?
(A) Lot of stress is reported to be on the behavioral aspect of many RSSB devotees due to adoption of meditation for minimum two and half hours daily. Many of SATSANGIS are even suffering from OCD or Bi-polar distress due this reason alone.This observation is based on findings medical reports.
(B) Similarly the impact of time spent on KAAR SEWA as also for SATSANG and other activities is affecting the job profile of SATSANGIS at large, that too by prescribing an early age of 25 years for NAAMDAAN instead of prescribing it beyond 60 years at least.
(C) Regarding donation to the extent of 10% of SATSANGIS income, there is need to give freedom for limiting their donations after considering the financial requirements of each family. There is also a need to give freedom to donate any ammount to the needy or downtrodden person if so identified by SATSANGIS themselves instead of mandatory donation to RSSB itself.
(D) Has RSSB found any negative impact on telecasting the RSSB SATSANG through any media or through DVD, since discontinued after having allowed downloading of SATSANGS of RSSB GURU CHARAN SINGH on YOUTUBE, more so when it is causing lot of expenses and discomforts to elderly or other poor SATSANGIS?
(E) Further, lot of stress is being caused due to restriction on sex life of SATSANGIS by ignoring the requirements of their spouses after giving birth to a child as per their family plan or what so ever. As otherwise such restrictions are against scientific approach as also against social ethics as well as GOD’s creativity. This misgiving can also be overcome by enhancing the minimum age to 60 years for NAAMDAAN, when SATSANGIS may be free from all their social liabilities in an honest manner. Else SATSANGIS can join RSSB by deciding not to marry after having attained NAAMDAAN at any earlier age.
