A very well written piece!! Oh and what about - Jay Shetty. This so called druggie-adolescent turned Monk has also appeared on Oprah's shows and seems to have found his calling after living and meditating in caves since the age of 22 (as reported) !!
His "Think Like a Monk" book was doing the rounds a few years ago. Till then, he has been accused of plagiarism from many other authors also. Sigh !! He still has a ton of followers who drink his cool aid.
