From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the Chidvilasananda article, it's highly misleading to say that Swami Nityananda stepped down as guru. Surely if this is included in the Chidvilasananda article, readers ought to know that this step-down was temporary, and he's returned to the guru role decades ago. It'd be more useful, for instance, to tell the reader that Muktananda appointed both Chidvilasananda and Nityananda as successors, and the two later split to become gurus of separate organizations.

More glaring is the fact that Chidvilasananda has made not public statements or appearances since 2004! Wouldn't a Wiki reader in 2007/8 like to know that Chidvilasananda is no longer actively playing the guru role? That'd seem like just about the most relevent information of all.

If there's any evidence, anywhere, that Chidvilasananda is making herself available to the public in any way, can the Wiki editor provide it? And if not, the fact that (by all evidence) she's dropped off the map is hardly insignificant.
