Judy,
Yep, I agree with you. G-Spot's communications to this forum seemed low class.
Just for your information, naga sadhus are not just from the lower castes.
They are also at the low end of the sannyasa spectrum. Naga sadhus are indeed
respected but chiefly because they possess nothing, not even clothes. Some of
them however do possess the potency to successfully use karma mantras. Dont
ever mess with a naga sadhu is a common sentiment in India. They are respected
in many ways because they are feared not because they necessarily hold
liberating knowledge. There are exceptions of course. Maybe her teacher is one.
By the way, my conclusion, after looking at some photos of her fixed gaze, is
that she is the naga.
There are many indications of her status. Here are just a few more:
1. She is trolling for disciples in various forums (actually trawling
[fishing with a net] might be a better word correspondence considering our
networked forums.) Ronny Tanmay, who claims he is performing slava for her,
seems quite the preacher. Didnt he hear how dangerous this new variant of TB
is? Maybe he should have his nadi-s checked by an independent yogin. God forbid
if it were a yogini. He might end up mantrically gelded by the head mistress
just to keep him pure
for sure.
2. She disparages anyone she considers to be commercial yet the enterprising
$50 g-spot is a veritable greenway sanctuary among yoga desperados if you get
my meaning. Funny how she believes she can find juicy lost souls here in this
den of meditation untermenschen.
3. Her descriptions of some of her experiences are given disproportional
value. Shiva and Shakti in a flame it may be beautiful and authentic but it
is just another experience. Nirvikalpa samadhi? It means non-conceptual,
non-relational unification but who unites with whom? How can this kind of
samadhi be endless if it joins what was separated? Separation is bound to occur
again if unification is not the natural, innate reality. This is why Shankaras
parama-guru Gaudapada called the state of completion (purnam) asparsha yoga
or non-relational union - unity rather than uniting.
Im thinking MMY briefly touched upon this in passing while describing the
first 5-7 threads of the Yoga sutras at Humboldt, 71.

I haven't spent any time in a monastery, and
I'm not at all informed concerning the lineage
issues, but boy, I've seen quite a bit of
intellectual dishonesty in her responses.
Put that together with the snark and the ego,
and she really turns me off. Maybe that's just
personality and has nothing to do with her
state of consciousness and her ability to
help her followers achieve enlightenment; and
perhaps some folks find it appealing, but it
sure isn't the kind of thing that would attract
me to a teacher.
