Amid police enquiry and flak from Madras High Court, screenshots from the website of Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev’s Isha Foundation have gone viral. They show that pictures of his feet were being sold for ₹3,200. This has attracted sharp reactions from netizens who said that they have “lost all respect” for him.
Sadhguru’s Isha Foundation was earlier today subjected to an enquiry on allegations that women are being “brainwashed” to reside there. Around 150 police personnel were reportedly present at the foundation during the enquiry.
Earlier, the Madras High Court issued a directive to file a status report listing out the cases related to the foundation at Velliangiri foothills.
The court was hearing a petition filed by a retired professor from Coimbatore S Kamaraj who alleged that his two daughters were “brainwashed” to live at the foundation’s Coimbatore centre and were not allowed to maintain any contact with the families.
