Nithyananda was arrested<\/a> in Himachal Pradesh on a \u201cNon-Bailable\u201d Warrant. Now, for WHAT exactly? That he had sex with an adult in their privacy?<\/p>\nI don\u2019t get the reason .. really. Can someone explain to me? Because none of those stupid and media drummed up charges of land and other things were even real.<\/p>\n
Honestly, whatever the followers may feel \u2013 cheated or whatever \u2013 what is his crime?<\/p>\n
And, wasn\u2019t it the duty of the local police to save his Ashram from being plundered and burned by the looters and unruly crowd? Or does the contention of \u201cMob action without contest\u201d being a useless plea apply only to BJP run governments?<\/p>\n
No matter how sinful someone may think his action was religiously.. Sex \u2013 consensual and in privacy \u2013 is NO Crime\u2026 the last I checked!<\/p>\n
There are priests who are documented pedophiles and offenders who have been working in India after they were thrown out of US and they are fine to go scott-free when they do more harm on innocent kids!<\/p>\n
Honestly, something is drastically wrong with our system and way of thinking.<\/p>\n
However weak and idiotic Nithyananda may have been, it is becoming more and more clear to me that (1) it was a big set up and (2) there is a sure enough controversy. Otherwise it is difficult to comprehend the unbelievable hunt that the Karnataka police would go on way in to Himachal Pradesh just to catch one Swami who had sex???!! Come on! There are REAL<\/strong> criminals to catch out there.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"So, today Nithyananda was arrested<\/a> in Himachal Pradesh on a “Non-Bailabl<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1517,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33,61,63],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9517","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-india","category-regular_blog_post","category-religion"],"yoast_head":"\nNow, why has Nithyananda been arrested?<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"So, today Nithyananda was arrested in Himachal Pradesh on a "Non-Bailabl\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/drishtikone\/2010\/04\/now-why-has-nithyananda-been-arrested\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Now, why has Nithyananda been arrested?\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"So, today Nithyananda was arrested in Himachal Pradesh on a "Non-Bailabl\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/drishtikone\/2010\/04\/now-why-has-nithyananda-been-arrested\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Drishtikone\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2010-04-22T05:25:09+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Desh Kapoor\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Desh Kapoor\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/drishtikone\/2010\/04\/now-why-has-nithyananda-been-arrested\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/drishtikone\/2010\/04\/now-why-has-nithyananda-been-arrested\/\",\"name\":\"Now, why has Nithyananda been arrested?\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/drishtikone\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2010-04-22T05:25:09+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2010-04-22T05:25:09+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/drishtikone\/#\/schema\/person\/e24bcebf9da3425dd595b71543245311\"},\"description\":\"So, today Nithyananda was arrested in Himachal Pradesh on a \\\"Non-Bailabl\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/drishtikone\/2010\/04\/now-why-has-nithyananda-been-arrested\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/drishtikone\/2010\/04\/now-why-has-nithyananda-been-arrested\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/drishtikone\/2010\/04\/now-why-has-nithyananda-been-arrested\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/drishtikone\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Now, why has Nithyananda been arrested?\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/drishtikone\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/drishtikone\/\",\"name\":\"Drishtikone\",\"description\":\"Perspective on Life and World from Hindu and Indian standpoints\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/drishtikone\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/drishtikone\/#\/schema\/person\/e24bcebf9da3425dd595b71543245311\",\"name\":\"Desh Kapoor\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/drishtikone\/#\/schema\/person\/image\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/3cc132f0b1d11236e6dc28b12e598a23?s=96&d=mm&r=g\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/3cc132f0b1d11236e6dc28b12e598a23?s=96&d=mm&r=g\",\"caption\":\"Desh Kapoor\"},\"description\":\"Making sense of the world via the perspective of Dharma and Hinduism.
