But are you of the opinion that all Sadhus are authentic? can there be no fake ones? I have spent plenty of time around these God men and know that vast majority of them are fakes. For most, the holyness is just a business because they know Indian people have a lot of respect for holymen and will serve them, spend money on them so they see this as the best way to live a comfortable job free life.
On the other hand the real mystical Sadhus were like Parmahansa Yogananda, Ramana Maharishi, Rama Krishna.
