How do other saints in India view MMY? Pandits who are on the MMY payroll speak highly of him. No one else does. That's my experience. In Banaras, where some of the most respected pandits in India reside, his name is mud. He has a reputation for catering to big money, movie stars, and that ilk. In the religious community he is perceived as an uppity, low caste manipulator. Frankly, outside of his own org I've never heard a positive comment  about him while in India these past eleven trips. ROTFL!  Yes, that sure validates MMY's lack of credibility, Vaj. Really all it is is an example from someone who's spent a lot of time in India with pundits and with Dandis and the Shanks. Sad really. I seriously doubt he'd want to take the time to write a paper on such an obvious situation LOL, esp. since TM has become so passé.
