Hi Jai, I'm Elahi
And yes, I would say being free from conflict and suffering is one of the most important thing any of us can work towards 
As to whether concealment and secrecy = conflict...Maybe some of the time it does, particularly if we are talking about inner conflict. But I can think of a few reasons why concealment in other situations may actually be necessary, for example, some advanced spiritual teachings and practices might be concealed, or have to be secret (temporarily) because they could cause damage to a person who had access to them before they were ready and had built a strong foundation.

I can even name the founder for you as a 1 out of 2,
but why would that be secret?
do you understand --
it's a bad force.

it's not the teachings it's --
every. single. thing.
shrouded in as much secrecy as believably possible.

Could you rephrase that? Sorry, my dense brain doesn't quite understand what you're saying.

The founder isn't secret. His name is on the homepage, and all over our Facebook page. It's just, unlike other spiritual teachers who are more well-known, he hasn't publicised himself, because it's just been a small group until now. He didn't have the inclination or the time to be in the public eye until we were ready to have a public website. He has never wanted fame and fortune, just to get the teachings out there.

I included it on my previous post - Daishi Nagiyah...At least I thought I did. I typed that huge long response earlier and my tablet deleted it. Maybe I forgot to add the last line when I wrote it out again. Anyway, that is his name. Sorry, I really thought I had said it.
