In DC, there was a right wing sub cult group known to back benchers as the Fredonites as Fred was their leader.  They were strict, literal believers in whatever the guru said.  They would simultaneously sigh when the guru said something they deemed profound, like "the fish in the water is thirsty".

Fred was kicked out of a few events in DC for interrupting satsang.  I later learned that he took his show to Miami.

Do you remember the infamous book burning with Fred, coupled with John Millers visit  (dictated by the lord himself) that precipitated it?Made the local news....Fred's "war on religion"...Fred and Yaron's gopis, foot washing etc,it has quite a backstory...

This must have happened sometime in the 80's when work took me away from the DC area for a couple years. Otherwise, I would surely remember.

I do remember asking the keeper of the video library about a famous satsang from the guru in the late 70's.  He acted like he had no idea what I was talking about.
