On the 14th of July 1963, the Great Soul Swami Sivananda entered Mahasamadhi (departure of a Self-realized saint from his mortal coil) in his Kutir on the bank of Ganga, in Shivanandanagar.

face it FH... viji was likely murdered, or brainwashed into committing suicide... all other so called examples of mahasamadhi are done by old and/or ailing people, and likely had a medical cause of death. There is none in her case.

can't believe someone can be in this kind of cult. I would not have been this passionate about this otherwise, but it's sorta personal this time...

If you are so concerned you should be brave enough to call them and take them to task otherwise it is just noise. BTW, I am not a member nor follower. I just find his some of his teachings which are appealing to me and some which may not but I keep my options open and will not accuse anyone of without any proof.

There was a law suit in Madras high court which summoned some anti-SG website owners for a court hearing. They didnot come to court to support their claims. So Court ordered the arrest of the website owners for contempt of court...

at this point it's safe to say all his words are either hogwash or unoriginal. giving Hinduism the tainted name that it has. hope you didn't go there and get hypnotized yet, or worse, buy the 100 dollars class/training/or whatever it is. If I knew you in personal life, I would be much more harsh, but here, I will back out.

Then, with the help of his wife "Vijji", [who was SJV's sister, in his previous life time] and another married women "Bharathi" [who was sadhguru’s disciple, in previous life named "vibhuthi"]and in this life, he had made her, take birth in a particular womb, he claims, so by using His, His wife’s and His divine consort Bharathi’s life energies the seven energy chakras of the dhyanalinga would be activated and consecrated. Both these women had to come in this life time only to help & assist him towards the consecration of the Dhyanalinga! It was his wish, to use 14 people, to do the consecration, but it did not work out.

Suddenly, when nearly 95% of the consecration was done, and in a week’s time, the whole process would have finished, by the end of Jan 1997, his young wife Vijji of 31 years of age, while meditating, felt the urge to dissolve herself and so, she came out of her meditation, went and removed her jewellery and left her body on 23^rdJan 1997. Sadhguru says that, it was Mahasamadhi, where one leaves his/her body by sweet will, with prior planning. However, as he burnt her body the next day, itself even without informing his Father-in-Law, who was about 380 kms away or without doing an autopsy, suspicions remain whether the death was natural or a murder by SJV.

The following is the Indian Express Newspaper report as appearing on October 12, 1997 about police registering a case of murder by Jaggi Vasudev:

Coimbatore, Oct, 11: Close on the heels of scandals relating to fake godmen getting exposed, yet another ashram from Coimbatore is in the limelight with Jaggi Vasudev aliash Jagadeesh of Isha Yoga ashram at Poondi near Coimbatore, being charged with the murder of his wife Viji alias Vijayakumari.

A team of police personnel recently visited the premises of Isha Ashram at poondi and interrogated the inmates of the ashram. Godman Jaggi is away in the US.

According to police, T. S. Ganganna of Bangalore (father of Viji) had preferred a complaint with the Bangalore Police suspecting foul play in the death of his daughter Viji. The complainant had stated that his daughter left him last on June 15, 1996. He reportedly received a message on January 23, 1997, from Jaggi Vasudev, stating that Viji was no more.

Ganganna said that Jaggi Vasudev had hurriedly completed the cremation on Jan.24 even before they could rush from Bangalore, raising suspicion about the nature of death. He suspected death due to poisoning or strangulation.

According to him, Jaggi Vasudev could have caused the death of Viji to facilitate his illicit relationship with yet another inmate of the ashram. Based on the complaint of Ganganna to the Bangalore City Police on Aug 12, a case was registered.

The Bangalore City Police transferred it to the Coimbatore Rural Police. The Coimbatore Rural Police have registered a case against Jaggi Vasudev under Section 302 of IPC (murder) and IPC 201 (suppression of evidence).

Later Isha Yoga Foundation has denied reports that Jaggi Vasudev had fled to USA to avoid investigation of ashram.

Authorised Signatory of Ashram Kiran stated that Guruji had gone for giving lectures. ENS

Despite the above, for the present, I will accept, that SJV is innocent and his wife died a natural death, as SJV says.

Here is my $1 bet.

Sadhguru also will enter Mahasamadhi at his time of "convenience" want to bet?

a 33 yr old house wife entering mahasamadhi after being a devotee for just 5 years ???

People said similar stuff about pOrnanada (and still some do). But, we all know.... Sadhguru is smarter due to his age and - due to his proxmity to that faomus Goundar's home - and will last and loot for a long time. But, since the Daughter is rich and good on her own, there is no need for him to save big time. He will end up like Puttaparthi.

Goundare! You from CBE right? Why donot you use your 'contacts' to investigate? Smile

I am not new to the quest for spiritual knowledge as I have another master who is not into publicity and he is getting old. I have met quite a no of gurus/saints in my early years, I have not failed so far in identifying those who are not worthy of their respect and I am confident that I will not fail here too. The difference with SG I observed is he may be direct in his answers to some questions and few may get offended bcz of that...

Anyway, I put a prefix SG- in my SG related posts so those who does not like him or his ideas or his videos or do not want to see, can ignore or do not need to open the posts/links....
