I respect all those saintly people who have denunciated all their worldly comforts; and are using their spiritual energy to promote peace and well beings of others but I’m not at all follower or fan of Spiritual Billionaires. Bapu ji! recent crazy and creepy your comments on the gang rape of Jyoti Singh Pandey have shocked me badly. Your argument is senseless and sickening. You said that “the girl should have begged for her life to the rapists and recited mantras to acquire Godly support”, this kind of terrible thinking and mentality was solely responsible for the destruction of temples, plundering of wealth, raping of women and killing of thousands in the hands of cruel invaders of India. People like you have neither read the medieval history seriously nor remembered it that’s why you offer baseless and imprudent logics. God appears on earth whenever there is need of it ( Yada yada hi…Gita) but people have to carry their duties/karmas and cannot sit idle and wait for avatar (Appearance of God ). Instead they have to be kept reminded about this saying- Daiv daiv aalsee pukaara, Ramayana (Only the lethargic calls for Godly help).
I wonder when bombs were exploded in Bombay, innocents were killed in riots and many girls were raped every day in different parts of India, you didn’t use your mantras power to avert these horrible things but certainly you are misusing it for amassing wealth and popularity. Time has come when so called holy person like you should stop promoting superstition.
In your defence you blamed media for defaming you and called them as “barking dogs” which reflects your weird thinking.
Editor’s Note: The headline for this story was given by LINK editor R. Paul Dhillon and should not be a reflection on the writer! We felt it needed a strong rebuking headline as too many of India’s so-called leaders have shown such insensitivity towards the Delhi gangrape victim Jytoi Singh Pandey!
