The Armour of Caste

When Swami Nityananda’s sex-escapades (sexcapades) enlightened the world, he was left stranded. Everyone loved watching the videos. TRPs sky rocketed, Youtube had a very high hit rate but Swamiji found himself cornered. He went underground to avoid possible repercussions. His peers (seers of other Mutts) closely watched him bite the dust. All along the period when this drama ensued, none of the swamijis spoke a word in favour of Nitya-ananda.

The exact reason behind this inactivity from fellow Swamijis is unknown. It could be jealousy (considering the list of clientele offering ‘personal services’) or professional rivalry. You won’t mind a very successful competitor falling prey to his own misdoings. You wouldn’t do the mistake of trying to stop him from killing his own business.

However Nitya-ananda, being the shrewd business man that he is, bounced back after proving to everyone that his not a “purush”. There was also kerosene flames which purified him and and the borewell water which washed him of all the evil that touched him while in jail. He is doing roaring business now.

Currently another pious man, Yeddy-urappa is currently facing problems in retaining his chair. He is no less than a swamiji. We have seen him more in temples and mutts instead of Vidhana soudha, not to forget the zillions of pooja he participates in.  He even gets a priest to purify Vidhana soudha before he gets in to do his business. All this seems to have paid off, as a number of Swamijis have jumped to his rescue.

Among the seers who have rallied to the rescue of Yeddyurappa are Rambhapuri Sri of Balehonnur, Jnanaprabhu Siddarama Swamiji of Yadanadu Mutt, Sanehalli Panditaradhya Shivacharya Swamiji and Dayananda Swamiji of Basavadharma Peetha. History has never seen so many swamijis speak in unison on any cause earlier, even for betterment of society.


All of them believe that if Yeddyurappa is forced to relinquish office, he would only be a victim of the nasty scheming of opposition parties, primarily Deve Gowda and family. Not so long ago, Deve Gowda was on the other side of the fence. Political views of Swamiji Inc,. seem to have changed lanes. Spending tax payer’s money on ‘development’ of Mutts seemed to have worked for Yeddy.  


The Veerashaiva Mahasabha also came out strongly in favour of Yeddyurappa. Pejawar Mutt Seer Sri Vishwesha Theertha Swamiji too has come in support of the CM saying it was wrong to sack Yeddyurappa only because of the accusations made against him.

Swamijis have threatened that they would take to streets if Chief Minister B.S. Yeddyurappa is sacked even before proven guilty. If this political drama has started a bit early, then swamijis could have taken to street in the Delhi half marathon. It would have been fun seeing swamijis in tracksuits sweating it out on the streets of Delhi. But, we can hope to see them on the streets if the not so successful Bangalore marathon is organized in future. Kenyan marathon runners beware, you have competition!!

Dayananda Swamiji, went a step ahead and held a press conference to support Yeddy. He claimed that Swamijis were against corruption and their fight against corruption was relentless. Looks like this Swamiji believes that the whole Karnataka state is corrupt and Yeddy is honest. He has advised the BJP high command and RSS to guide Yeddy in case he has committed any mistake.

Swamiji has also expressed his anger on Reddy brothers and their Amma ‘Sushma Swaraj’ for trying to pull down Yeddy. He has also taken Yeddyurappa's son Raghavendra to task for misusing his father's position. Look at how much evil is surrounding our innocent Yeddy.
He sees this as a ploy used for attacking the Lingayat community. He feels constant efforts were made even in the past to dethrone CMs belonging to Lingayat community. And this is the same sort of conspiracy is being hatched now for dethroning Yeddyurappa.

We have seen on TV that Mahabharata’s Karna had a kavacha (armour) which made him invincible. Our Yeddy seems have a Kavacha of his own. A Lingayat Kavacha which is making him invincible enough, that his political bosses are unable to penetrate. Which means, Yeddy is likely to prove his “innocence” to the world and emerge as a winner.
