Maharaj Charan Singh Ji Grewal (1916–1990), was the fourth guru of Radha Soami Satsang Beas. He became guru in 1951 following the death of Sardar Bahadur Ji Maharaj Jagat Singh, and served the Beas sangat as guru until his death at the age of 73. Before his appointment as successor he practiced law in Hisar and Sirsa. He was an initiate of Baba Sawan Singh (who was his paternal grandfather) and he was the successor of Sardar Bahadur Jagat Singh. His own successor and the present guru (Head) of RSSB is Baba Gurinder Singh Dhillon.

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.
