Sadhguru devotee loses his mind. Check out this insane compilation of his craziest moments…
“Shiva Kailash Shambho—born Yuri in Ukraine, now based in Canada—poses as a Hindu godman, complete with a fake Indian accent and a self-given Hindu name he legally adopted.
A former pickup artist turned self-styled spiritual teacher, he now charges hundreds of dollars for Discord-based “enlightenment” sessions, delivering erratic, often contradictory teachings.
His content swings between aggressive rants, spiritual jargon, and low-effort sales pitches for everything from sacred necklaces to nutritional yeast.
Sadhguru’s organisation has publicly distanced themselves from him, barring him from events—including an incident in which he was reportedly denied entry to the Isha Center after carrying a knife.
Alongside a disturbing obsession with finding a “young v*rgin partner,” his behaviour reflects less the clarity of a realised teacher and more the volatility of someone using spirituality as a stage. “

Sadhguru's maiden trip to Bihar overshadowed by major statewide controversy over Isha crematorium
Sadhguru’s first visit to Bihar was completely eclipsed by public fury over Isha Foundation’s takeover of a Patna crematorium on a ₹1-per-year lease. The crematorium was built by the government at taxpayers’ expense for ₹89 crore. His satsang drew just over 5,000 people, but the reported ₹3,500 cremation charges triggered widespread outrage across the state and among Bihar natives worldwide.
Major regional media led with the “VIP crematorium” story rather than the spiritual programme. On X, YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook, leading Bihar journalists, influencers, and YouTubers slammed the privatization of last rites, while opposition leaders joined the attack, demanding answers from the government.
The visit was ruined. Instead of celebrating Bihar’s vibrant spiritual legacy, the entire narrative around Sadhguru’s visit was dominated by the crematorium controversy. What should have been a spiritual homecoming turned into a major PR disaster, leaving Sadhguru looking totally out of touch with Bihar’s ground realities.

How many more people have to disappear from Sadhguru‘s ashram before questions are answered?
A resident swami associated with Sadhguru’s Isha Foundation reportedly disappeared in 2023 and, according to police status reports filed before the Madras High Court, has still not been located.
This wasn’t a tourist.
This wasn’t a casual visitor.
According to the records, Swamy Bavadutha had been associated with the ashram since around 2007 and had lived there for many years.
The police report states that on February 28, 2023, he left the ashram, leaving behind his phone. After that, he was reported missing.
Authorities reportedly questioned witnesses, reviewed CCTV footage, conducted searches, followed leads, and checked hospitals and multiple locations.
Yet years later, there appears to be no confirmed sighting, no confirmed explanation, and no public resolution.
Regardless of anyone’s views on Sadhguru or Isha Foundation, isn’t this a legitimate question:
What happened to Swamy Bavadutha?
If a long-term resident of a major spiritual organization disappears and remains missing for years, should there not be greater public attention and transparency surrounding the case?
I am genuinely interested in understanding whether there have been any credible updates that explain what happened.

Legal setback for Sadhguru as Isha Foundation loses case in Madras High Court over ₹2.5 crore phone bill
The Madras High Court rejected Isha Foundation’s appeal in its dispute with telecom company BSNL over a huge phone bill. The court ordered a fresh (new) arbitration for the ₹2.5 crore bill because the first arbitrator wrongly decided the case without proper expert help. BSNL had presented very high international call records (much higher than Isha’s usual ₹20,000 monthly bills), and the court said technical experts are needed to check if the calls were real or due to hacking.

Jun 08, 2026, The Times of India
Combatore: A 29-year-old youth died by suicide at the Isha Yoga Centre in Coimbatore district on Sunday evening.
Police identified the deceased as T Karthi, 29, from Viluppuram district. He was residing in Coimbatore for about one year and was working as an excavator operator.
The incident came to light after Alandurai police were informed about a man found injured near the car parking exit of the Isha Yoga Centre. When police personnel reached the spot, they found a man lying in a pool of blood with severe head injuries. The 108 ambulance service personnel who were called to the scene, declared him dead after an examination.
Subsequent enquiry revealed that he was visiting the Isha Yoga Centre as a tourist. During investigation, police examined CCTV camera footage available in and around the area. The footage showed the man climbing onto the roof of a power room located within the premises and subsequently jumping off the roof.
The findings of the postmortem examination, coupled with the CCTV camera evidence, suggest that the man died after intentionally jumping off the elevated structure. His body was later handed over to his relatives after the postmortem.
Alandurai police are investigating further to establish the cause of suicide.
