That's undoubtedly true - perhaps even to the extent of being trite. But it doesn't address whether or not a charismatic leader may in some measure be 'sociopathic'.

IMO it's not useful to talk about 'sociopaths' as though there were a single definable group, the members of which  all conform to a single typology. Rather there is sociopathic behaviour that is expressed to a greater or lesser degree in some people - perhaps where that behaviour is predominant one might reasonably describe the individual as being a 'sociopath'.

I have no doubt that Rawat has frequently demonstrated sociopathic behaviour - and in my estimation (for what it's worth) those behaviours are dominant in Rawat's life.

>History has shown that normal people can be very unethical when they have the opportunity or are socially influenced to believe that evil is okay.<

Again, this is a truism but what does it have specifically to do with Rawat ? Are you saying that because his followers have let him get away with behaviours that have all the appearance of being sociopathic this must mean in effect that Rawat is 'normal' because he wouldn't have behaved that way if people had stood up to him ?  If so that simply sounds like a bully - i.e someone prone to sociopathic behaviour.

I don't think there is any way to provide 'definitive' proof as to whether Rawat is unremittingly sociopathic - however I think anyone who has observed Rawat for any length of time, will find the following link provides a very familiar picture:  http://home.datawest.net/esn-recovery/artcls/socio.htm
