Nithyanandha act and aftermath.


Many people reacted differently on this issue. Leave those non believers who laughed at the issue and said "I knew it". Hardcore followers were shocked. First of all they went to him for his preachings and learning yoga, nothing changed now. It is surprising to see they didn't expect their godman doing earthly acts eventhough he has been showing other signs all along. He was visibly getting richer everyday, letting people treat him like king, setting up ashram forts and makingup rules.
Next the press, SunTV which "uncovered" the story. It is one thing to show sex in tv and it is something to show real sex acts - yikes. Why don't we have censorship for TV again? Others like Nakeeran went overboard showing unconventional stuff. Why didn't they go to police first with the video before telecasting it?
Next the government, aren't they responsible for the safety of their people? To what extent are they controlling the ashrams? Even temples come under 'Hindu Aranilai thurai' but not ashrams, so whatever happens within ashrams is beyond government authority? - rubbish.
Then came officials, now all those officials investigating ashram's involvement in crime, tax fraud(?), sandalwood, tiger skin acquisition and land encroachments. They didn't even think of those possibilities before?
