This page needs major editing. And how about some criticisms of this guy? I've seen him and he seems like a cult leader to me. Selling pictures of "his holy feet" on his website.

There are many pages on the web that explain the significance of 'holy feet', a concept from eastern spirituality and traditions.

[edit] uhh

Well, yeah, I wrote the original article and I'm not too interested in him, my family is. I just thought he needed a Wikipedia article, and someone else would make it NPOV. He doesn't lead a cult, by the way, he's a spiritual leader. I

He's kinda new on the scene, so there haven't been any controversies yet.

Okay, I added a "neutrality is disputed" tag.

[edit] Neutrality/Objectivity

I agree that page needs a complete, more objective, overhaul. And this is coming from someone who has been closely associated with Nithyananda. I made the last of several changes which removed some of the "fawning" material which originated off the official website. Owing to lack of time, and not wishing to drastically alter what's already posted, I let much remain. Since I am not too familiar with Wiki standards and just what type of information ought to be included, I did not add any. I welcome an open discussion and constructive criticism about changes that might be made.

As mentioned, there have been no controversies related to Nithyananda. Thanks.

Just rewrite the article leaving whatever can be deemed facts and adding phrases like 'it is said that', or 'some people believe that' before what seems difficult to admit. Instead of blatant criticism.
