Is Sadhguru Running Another Controversial Cult? Father Of Two Highly Educated Daughters Claims So
Published By admin with Comments 0
The Madras High Court has taken a dig at the practices promoted by Sadhguru. This is after the father of two women has claimed that his daughters were “brainwashed” to stay at Sadhguru’s centre.
What did the court say? What allegations is Sadhguru facing? Here’s a detailed picture.
Where It All Started
Jaggi Vasudev, commonly known as Sadhguru, has been questioned by the Madras High Court, as to why he is promoting a hermit lifestyle for women and asking them to tonsure their heads when his daughters are married and well-settled.
The policies promoted by Sadhguru, founder of the Isha Foundation, came under scrutiny when a retired professor of Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, S Kamaraj, claimed that his two well-educated daughters were “brainwashed” to reside permanently at the Isha Yoga Centre, Coimbatore.
The former professor alleged that some medicines or food were being given to his daughters, causing them to lose their cognitive abilities. His elder daughter completed her M.Tech (Master of Technology) from a university in the United Kingdom and worked in the same institution, earning Rs 1 lakh as remuneration in 2004. She began attending yoga classes at the centre after her divorce in 2008. Her younger sister followed suit and joined her to stay at the centre.
