Man in a gullible garb

India is a holy land.
It is rich in  culture.
It is  a spiritual oriented nation referring every odds and every occurrence to Karma.
Vedas and Upanishads give out analogies to the day to day activities.
It abounds in temples  and Godly men,who dress up in orange attire,rudraksha,smearing themselves in ash.
The Indians prefer to have a Guru of their own,according to their taste and interest.

The upstarts in religion,have a huge sway over the people.
They play on the people's feelings.
They keep track of the devotees thoughts.
They ,then manifest their power  of charm to woo the people.
They work carefully and make a steady entry into the untreaded regions.
The  mesmerised devotee go behind him,not alone but with a troop of kith and kin.
They pay obeisance ,with a fabulous presentation ,which includes cash and kind.
The swamiji blesses them profoundly.
The blessing is proportional to the donations.
The more you donate ,the more you receive.

He indulges in manifold activities.
He sets up ashrams, where the inmates are treated with great care .
The old , the young and the invalids get consolation from his talks.
His interpretation of philosophy is so lucid that the gathering lose their selves.
Immersed in a deep trance his followers pay what he demands.
He gets fattened with currency.
He becomes a biilionaire in a time unimaginable,with properties all round .
He lives in a palatial ashram surrounded by mirth and pomposity.


As his wealth grows ,he loses his equanamity.
He enters into nefarious acts.
He wanders across for lust, or pleasure.
His rash ,indecent movements get exposed one day.
Then there is a mad rush and chaotic riots.
His ashrams are burnt.
Media ,which made him popular mangles him to dust overnight.
His followers  lay hurt .

Why this mad rush happens?
Why this ghastly defeat occurs?

The Sanyasi is not to be blamed but the people who are to be found fault.
