I can't say, never met him, except once in a dream and that doesn't count. My point above was the *assumption* that many (all?) of his followers make. Just because he said he was enlightened, why did they believe it? And also regarding getting escorted out, were those that this happened to respectful? Just curious, because we'd be treated similarly in any company meeting if openly challenging a CEO disrespecfully- not making any assumptions here, just gethering info.
