After reading the posts on Saraswati and co. I'm curious about what people here think of U.G. Krishnamurti. I imagine he was very disliked in the Guru / Yoga scene for attacking the reputation of many so-called "enlightened" teachers.

shivananda had various SWAMI students.....one founded IYI=yogaville. another SWAMI VISHNUDEVANANDA founded shivananda yoga....thses 3 swamis...shivananda...vishnudev and swami satchid...are all long dead.

to my knowledge SHIVANANDA never left india......

iv e heard many bad things about the shivananda center in nassua/bahamas?........."run by horrible israeli people...avoid at all costs" !!!!!!!!!!!!
