Swami Shantananda was in the will and was approved of by the courts. So was Swami Vishnudevananda, his sucessor. Vasudevananda was NOT in the will and was not a direct student of Swami Brahmanananda. However, the most recent court ruling gives him, once again, the residence of Gurudev at Jyotirmath. What you're saying is that since the mainstream swamis of India don't like MMY, as has always been known,the fact that the political situation at Jyotirmath has become increasingly complicated convinces you that MMY's connection to Swami Brahmanada was never very good. Just what do you think that MMY's connection actually was? How do you know?
