Well, I beg to differ about finding any truth on the ex-Amma website. I used to belong to that group, and it has nothing to do with free speech or free inquiry. Instead, it's all about bashing Amma, and anyone who disagrees, even with the most egregious errors, has that post deleted (by the moderator, I presume) and it never sees the light of day. I have a friend who is still a member, and she tells me it's still that way. Hardly a forum to learn truth. And instead of "many long-term devotees," I believe there are only a very few, possibly only even one or two who post under different names to try to make it seem there are more. The only reason Bronte is allowed to vent on this board is because the moderator values free speech, unlike the ex-Amma list. Jyotsna
