It's one of those guru based movements that crop up in the sub-continent. The idea is that your guru can help you reach god and then you can become a guru and help someone else. Beyond that, I couldn't tell you much. If you are interested, you might check the link below.

DO you mean Radhasoami ? I have not heard much about Radhaswamy, which is probabaly just a name. Radhasoami is also called in some places as Radhaswami-

Radhasoami (also Radhasoami Satsang) was founded in 1861 by Shri Shiv Dayal Singh Sahab who preached that human beings could reach God realization only through listening to the shabad / shabd (sound), or nam (name), of the Lord.

Following the departure of the founder in 1878, a number of splits of the movement occurred, apparently because Soami Ji Maharaj (the name given to Dayal Singh by his followers) did not name a successor. The three branches are:

Radhasoami Satsang Beas (Punjab, India, near Amritsar)
Radhasoami Agra (Agra, South of Delhi).
Radhasoami Dayalbagh

Meaning of the term "Radhasoami"

In simple words, "Radhasoami" means tie to God with the help of living master in this very life. No doubts that God will meet us the last day of our life , we will and surely meet in this very life.

Other meanings includes the reversal path of the divine light via Khand or divisions... as the word Radha when inverted forms Dhara, meaning flow ( also divine flow) and Swami meaning the master. The purpose and concept of the RadhaSwami mat is union of this divine flow with its original master. This is done through Surat Shabd Yoga. Others explain that it is not a Varnatmak name (that is, an approximate reproduction in human speech of the cosmic sound), but a Dhunyatmak name which can be heard internally through spiritual practice. (Aum, or Om, is a commonly known example of a Varnatmak name.) One way to explain Varnatmak Nam is to liken it to onomatopoeia, that commonly used poetic device, where engines are said to whirr, doors are slammed, bells ring and pagers beep. Except that, in this case, the Dhunatmak sound one is referring to with Varnatmak Nam is not physical, but spiritual.-
