No bad reports?  Here's one:  "There are growing ranks of gurus who have crossed the ethical borderline between religious guidance and physical intimacy. This infamous assemblage now includes the likes of Swami Muktananda, who according to William Rodarmor's article in CoEvolution Quarterly (Winter 1983), was having numerable sexual encounters with his female followers both in America and India before his death in 1982; Neem Karoli Baba, Richard Alpert's teacher, who is recorded to have had "making out" sessions with some of his female American devotees; and Sathya Sai Baba, perhaps India's most famous mystic, who is described by Tal Brooke (one-time disciple) in Lord of the Air (1979) to be a practicing homosexual."

 

Neem Karoli Baba did it all:  drink, take LSD, fornicate, mistreat people, scream and carry on, in short whatever he wanted to do, parading around like a saint and being waited on hand and foot.  People said he was All-Knowing.  He took full advantage of people's ignorance.  The typical jerk guru in every way.  Guruism is bad.  Period.
