No stage magician or blackmailing fake guru could last for over 50 years
in India; garnering 30 millions of followers.  Rajneesh was run out India
because of his patent phoneyness.

HPB was (and still is) tarred with the same brush. Virtually any real guru
will be smeared by the superficial carper.  One has to investigate more
deeply.

Sathya Sai Baba is a real Theosophist.

Best,
