After all, every aspirant would have a basic flaw or weakness in his character (not necessarily sexual based) which he continuesly tries to overcome or defeat and win over.

When u declare urself as a "guru" or "swamji" U are bound to have won over ur senses and cannot have basic flaws of gruhastha.

IF I remember right, there was a brahmachari (or swamiji) who actually fell in love with one of his devotee, he PROMPTLY gave up his sanyasa and married her. NOW THAT IS SOMETHING one should respect.

What matters is the MENTALITY of normal layman as "HOW A SWAMIJI" needs to behave. When that is not kept up, it amounts to "BREACH OF TRUST" in the name of religion or spirituality. and...that as far as my limited knowledge is concerned HAS TREMENDOUS negative marks.

Having said this, the video shows his eating habit and other general life style, which DOES NOT match up with the life style of an aspirant :|

ennavo ponga .. I kinda feel put off :D
ithanaikkum Ive listened to his speech just one or two times in podhigai and once on someone's recommendation I watched a video of spiritual talks.

I feel heavily sad with the current scenario in the world :( manase aarala :|

P_R,
I think the popular belief in Indian culture is that sanyAsi's have left "iga-bOghangaL" and thus capable of dwelling on things of higher order, enlightening people on such "non-fleshy" things as interaction with the supreme being etc :-)

I think the same concept is found with the forced celibacy of clerics in non-Hindu religions as well. அதாவது, சிற்றின்பம் உட்கொள்ளுபவரால் பேரின்பம் பற்றிய தெளிவு பெற முடியாது என்ற சித்தாந்தம்.

(இது என் கருத்து அல்ல, காட்சி மட்டுமே. உலகின் 2 பெரிய மதத்தொகுதிகள் மற்றும் ஒரு சிறிய ஆனால் சக்தி வாய்ந்த மதத்தொகுதி என்று மூன்று கூட்டங்களால் மதிக்கப்படுபவரும், இறைவனிடம் நேரடியாகப்பேசி அப்படிக்கிடைத்த தகவல்களை எழுதியவருமாகக்கருதப்படும் மோசஸ்'க்கு மனைவியும் இரண்டு குழந்தைகளும் உண்டு)

Ithukku Eenda sanyasi vesam podanum :banghead:. Cheating.... Veru per vachukidalamE.

I got reminded of my Malayali friend's joke on institutions there (seminary-monastery-orphanage thingy)

Strange! If u just bother to search internet
there are videos and websites talking about the malacious practices of nithyananda, posted months / years back.

Shows how cheats can be made great men by media and alleged-great-men can be dumped overnight as cheapies by the same media!

Good development! TN seems to have just too many pOli's around :-(
