The famous godman of Tamil Nadu, Swami Nithyananda, finally released on bail after spending 53 days in jail on rape and other criminal charges.
The Karnataka High Court granted bail to Nithyananda on
After reaching ashram from jail, Nithyananda performed Pooja at the Anandeshwari temple.

A spokesperson of the ashram said, “Nithyananda will undertake 'pancha tapasya' in which he will sit and pray with the fire set around him for about three feet height,…. This is for cleansing the negativity that has gripped him and for world peace,”

No witness came forward to testify against the godman. The CBI told the court that it would not further interrogate Nithyananda.
There is a famous hindi proverb which means ‘after eating 100 rats, cat goes to pilgrimage’. The swami’s spiritual cleansing act is exactly like it. What is he trying to prove to the world by doing meditation with fire around him? Here is one more attention-seeking self-proclaimed swami. What is even more disturbing is the sheer number of people who will soon forget the issue and start worshipping him. According to Hindu mythology, we have crores of Gods. How come, there is a facination for babas who are definitely not as perfect as our Gods? I think this tendency of blindly believing swamis amount to disrespct to God.
ReplyDelete" The court also ordered the Swami not to preach but he could teach yoga". Can a court decide when a person should preach? Irrespective of whether this person is guilty or not the court shouldn't assume to tell people what can be preached or not. This is an abuse of court power and goes against freedom of speech.
ReplyDeleteThe article reports incorrectly and states allegations as facts. The tape is only an allegation and is yet to be proven. The CFSL has only authenticated that the tape is not edited, which still leaves it open to a host of other possibilities. Please state the facts accurately.
