Jetsun Posted August 24, 2013 For those who have never seen him Louis Theroux is a BBC documentary maker who makes a lot of interesting programmes about sub cultures, his style is that he aims to expose peoples strangeness just by being really straight and letting people talk. In this programme he tackles Indian Gurus and there is a kind of mocking approach to a lot of it and he obviously doesn't believe any of it and is trying to expose it as false and weird, but what is interesting is that at the end he goes to see Amma the hugging saint and she decimates his defences and blows him away with her power just through one of her hugs lol you can literally see how his mind is grasping to make sense of his experience as he tries to hold back tears. Thought it was pretty interesting. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gun8lI2rTvw 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RongzomFan Posted August 24, 2013 Basically the Islamic invasions destroyed a lot of genuine Hindu lineages, and of course destroyed Buddhism in India. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RongzomFan Posted August 24, 2013 (edited) If you want to take Hindu initiation go to a Brahmin priest or Nath. Not swamis. Edited August 24, 2013 by alwayson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
