Tainted godman's Malaysian centre will not shut down

(IANS)
A centre run by followers of Swami Paramhamsa Nithyananda, allegedly involved in a sex scandal in southern India, will not close down and will continue to promote his teachings, a Hindu leader said.
Malaysia Hindu Sangam (MHS) president R.S. Mohan Shan said they have taken this decision as Nithyananda's teachings were not against Hinduism.
'If the case is proven against Swami Nithyananda, we will just advise the centre to change its name and continue its activities which are in accordance with the religion,' The Star newspaper quoted him as saying Wednesday.
'So far, we have not received any information and therefore, we are not in a position to issue any directive for the time being,' he said.
A sensational video footage allegedly shows Nithyananda, who originally hails from neighbouring Tamil Nadu, in a compromising position with two women.
The man in the clip appears to be Nithyananda and one of the women a Tamil actress who has played leading role in many films and TV serials.
He has a large following amongst the two-million strong Indian diaspora in Malaysia.

Tainted godman's Malaysian centre will not shut downA very sensible move. If there is good work being done by the local centre why should they now stop, merely because of a scandal? |

bogu GurusExamining the Guru’s Life
A genuine guru must not only speak the truth; he must also live it. In other words his character must be perfect and his behavior exemplary. In the West we commonly see that a professor or philosopher receives renown on the basis of his teachings alone, regardless of his personal life. But in the Vedic society if a man is a drunkard or in some other way violates the ideal principles he teaches, then he is considered not a teacher but a cheater. According to the Gita a real guru, who teaches by example, must have the qualities of peacefulness, sense control, austerity, purity, tolerance, honesty, wisdom and faith in God. So-called gurus who engage in abominable things like meat eating, cigarette smoking, and illicit sex, and who covert wealth for purchasing various other forms of sense gratification, are all disqualified. One who cannot control his senses cannot rightly bear the title “guru.†|
