Sex, Lies, and Two Hindu Gurus: How I Was Conned By a Dangerous Cult-and Why I Will Not Keep Their Secrets

Sex, Lies, and Two Hindu Gurus: How I Was Conned By a Dangerous Cult - and Why I Will Not Keep Their Secrets The two Hindu gurus in this book call themselves saints, divine beings, jagadguru, and God incarnate–they are, in fact, evil incarnate. One is an accused child molester and rapist, who maintains a daily schedule of “charan seva” (body massages) and “private time” (sex) with female devotees and underage girls. The other is a fugitive from justice, who was convicted on 20 counts of indecency with children in Texas in March 2011–before he fled into Mexico, then India, and escaped justice. Together, they worked for over six decades to build a cult following of thousands, huge ashrams in India and the U.S., a harem of women, and trust funds stockpiled with hundreds of millions of dollars of other people’s money. These were my “gurus” for 15 years—until I learned their dark secrets. Now, I will not keep them. This pulls back the curtain, opens the bedroom doors, shines a light, and lays bare the secrets of a dangerous cult headed by two wicked men–Kripalu Maharaj and Prakashanand Saraswati–who for decades were hell-bent on satisfying their insatiable all-too-mortal desires. And who operated their psychopathic con game with impunity. At its core, "Sex, Lies, and Two Hindu Gurus" is a memoir about one spiritual seeker’s journey to hell and back. It’s also a thriller about bringing to justice one of the gurus—only to have him escape into thin air before being put behind bars for molesting children. But most importantly, it’s a cautionary tale for all spiritual seekers—showing them why they should look before they leap onto a spiritual path that might not be what it seems. 10 Reasons To Read "Sex, Lies, and Two Hindu Gurus" 1.
