>From what I've read, the Swami Swaroopanand got a summons for stealing items from the Jyotirmath Ashram and was forced to return the stolen items. This was mentioned in the Times of India. Go figure. Apparently, Guru Dev never accepted money, so what need would he have for a 'bookkeeper'? Sounds to me like the Swaroopanand should maybe resign his seat, or keep his big pie-hole shut!

The other Barry says fourteen years, Curtis says twelve, Edg says twenty-five and John Manning claims he scammed over 5,000 people out of their money. What's up with that?
