Lalit Mohan Chawla, a 19-year-old college student, was having doubts about God.
Every classroom had a picture of the late Sathya Sai Baba and every day the teacher forced him to meditate while imagining the guru's benevolent hand resting on his head — all this despite the troubling allegations of sexual misconduct in the guru's past.
The school yoga instructor talked about energy in a way that contradicted everything Lalit read in his science books.
"He said we had to use a [yoga] mat, to prevent our energy from flowing into the earth," Chawla said.
"I felt that was completely stupid. But if you do not bring a mat, you will be spanked. I got spanked once. Not because I refused to bring my mat, because I forgot to bring my mat. I never refused to bring the mat, I never refused to meditate. I mean, who wants a spanking — that's all." Lesson learned. More...
