Its realy unfortunate that our Media as well as some sections of society started pointing the fingers towards Ashram and Asaram Ji.
If one goes through what Asaram Ji teach, one will find that he lives a very simple life, have equal respect for all the religions. On listening his satsang one finds him as person with great self control, compassion, depth of experience and one can notice his continous urge for benefit of society.
I have visited his ashram multiple times and have seen the deep culture of decipline and purity, and have never been asked to pay any donation or buy some ashram product.
Its again unfortunate that the thousands of services done by his ashram for the benefit of society never gets any Media attention/coverage, but on the issue of student deaths the Media is more than ready to malign his image even without any evidence against ashram.
Hope that sense prevails among the society and more importantly among Media.

Dear,.. First of all this is not the right section to discussion for honerable(?) Asharam Bapu Ji's deeds. but still i find opportunity to answer your concerns. Asharam ji or any other so called Godman has their own believers / followers and their faith also divided based on self claim good teachings & superiority. On the ground, you often can find peoples to debate which Godman & their faith is Good or Bad. No doubt their teaching or community services are benefiting somewhere section of the society and that is also admirable. Why you think Media should put all these things in their regular news. This is all simple a mission every Guru is carrying out and whoever find suitable and choose them as their mentor for advising. But particular question of any unnatural/unsolved death within any Ashram premises is as serious as unnatural/unsolved death of head of the Ashram. you must be agree that their will be big hue and cry for you in the later case until you and your family become victim of the initial case. So don't get disturb, Media has logical right to expose the back story behind any miss-happening and they are doing their job, as simple as that.
