Nityananda Swami scandal

Swamiji scandal

I guess you dont need any kind of introduction on this topic as this is being shown repeatedly on the media for the past 72 hours. I have read comments from some people that he should be hanged in public etc. One question for them: What wrong has he done? Why are people so angry on him?

1. Enjoying with a lady: Well, he is not forcing her into anything. Both of them are doing willingly, so whats your problem?

2. Drinking: Come on, why is he not allowed to drink? Many scientists, poets, celebrities even the presidents of a nation do drink, so whats the issue? He didn't create any nuisance to anyone

If we observe the reactions from the people

1. Devotees: There are around 86,000 devotees to him. How did these people become devotees to him in the first place? Because of his teachings. If there is no good in his teachings, then what the hell they were doing all these days? Lets accept the fact, he is a great sadhu. Having that many devotees is not an easy task. How many people would agree with your views and become devoeetes to you? I guess the reason for their anger is that they tried to change their ways through his teachings but couldn't succeed. So they have to blame someone and now with this chance, they are blaming him and they are going back to their same old life.

2. Non-devotees: People in general are angry on sadhus and swamijis. Reason is very simple; jealousy. People try hard 24X7 to make few bucks and to lead a happy life. But these swamijis lead a peaceful life without wokring hard. They have all luxuries at the cost of other peoples efforts. Well, whats wrong in that? they are superior in their knowledge and hence they are able to spend their life peacefully and happily. Think the efforts put by a riskha puller and by you; whose efforts are more and who is having luxuries?

So what am I trying to say? There are no bad people or good people; only bads ideas and good ideas. Accept the good that comes from either a 10 year old boy or from a swamiji or from a criminal and ignore the rest.
And lastly, how is the media allowed to show the private scenes of two people for public? Isn't this illegal? Imagine if they put a secert camera in your bedroom and show that in the TV channels? Why are the people watching the private scenes 24X7? because all are se*ual perv*rts and enjoy watching other people's private scenes.
