The Dark Empire of Yogi Bhajan
Yogi BHAJAN | True Believers
Divergent interpretations of material relations through a spiritual permissive indulgent manner can be a trouble.
A grave sense of responsibility that can be a spiritual liability, even fewer can pass this apparently obiquous behavior/character test.
It is always possible like the swan to extract milk from the poison, and benefit onself. The material scheme brings about vulnerabilities for exploitation and abuse.

Context Context Context!!One’s background is very important if one is to learn kundalini yoga. If the information is perceived solely through a western perspective, and even further, a physical reference. Then so much can be misunderstood. We see an example of this in the depictions of Yogi Bhajan’s drawings.
I read once, that the backlash from nature and resentments of ancestors are at play here as well.
Is Yogi Bhajan guilty of abuse in all of this? There’s compelling arguments to suggest that he is. I wasn’t there, so I have no clue. But this just shows the dangers of a yogi teaching to the public in a big organization.
How will the Yogi address the complex karmas of all these disciples?
What of their ancestral obligations?
What of the ancestor’s influence on the yogi when engaging with disciples?
Does nature approve of the Yogi’s interference?
In the end, my view of this is limited!

I read two books, one by the lady who is in the caption image of the video and another by a male disciples. Interestingly there is nothing about kundalini yoga and psyche research in their experiences.
This means that kundalini yoga practice may not result in self realization, no matter who teaches or does it.
But as for the responsibility of the mishaps, sure the spiritual master has fault in it. Why the question?
Better if one learns from his mistakes.
Here are the two books of interest / warning / do not expect details about kundalini yoga breath infusion and samyama meditation.

I agree learning from his mistakes is the best approach in my opinion. Thanks for sharing the books. I’ll read the PremKa book eventually. Based on what I’ve seen in other videos, this book seems to have inspired many to reveal their horror experiences in the organization.

There are a series of interviews as part of the Uncomfortable Conversations podcast. I listened to the first one. It has nothing to do with sex or child abuse but illustrates how one 3HO member of 18 years was framed and arrested to be the fall guy in a Canadian lottery scam. Money and power were always a part of 3HO. Just click Watch on YouTube.

Thanks for sharing this! It illuminated a treacherous scheme played by Yogi Bhajan. I’ve never dug deep into the claims made against the yogi, though I’ve previously looked at a couple videos about his victims. I must admit, I’m always surprised or shocked when I hear these appalling stories about spiritual masters. Perhaps it’s my naivety, due to not being in an ashram and/or having any perceived negative experiences in this life.
