Did Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev Kill His Wife?
Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev’s wife died on January 23, 1997. The reason for her death has been explained as mahasamadhi.
Mahasamadhi is defined as follows:
Mahāsamādhi (the great and final samādhi) is the act of consciously and intentionally leaving one’s body.[1][2] A realized yogi (male) or yogini (female) who has attained the state of nirvikalpa samādhi, will, at an appropriate time, consciously exit from their body. This is known as mahāsamādhi. This is not the same as the physical death that occurs for an unenlightened person.
But did Viji really attain mahasamadhi?
Let us first look at her pics. See how she looked during those days and how young she was:
People who say that she went to mahasamadhi are just repeating what Jaggi Vasudev said or what others are saying. I have never come across anyone offline or online who was actually present when it happened.
It is said that there were hundreds of people who witnessed it, but who knows? Does just saying that over and over again make it true? Even if they were present at the event, what exactly did they witness? Did they actually witness Viji sitting in front of them fully alive, being in meditation and dropping dead finally? Did all this happenbefore their eyes without missing any details or did they hear such a news when Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev just came out of the room and told them that Viji had left her body?
This incident happened many years ago and it is easy to convince people that she went to Mahasamadhi by repeating the story over and over again. If someone wants to believe in something, they just have to hear it over and over again. Because, if everyone in Isha maintains the same thing, you would never question it even though you were not present in that place.
Very important point: In our country, nobody cremates someone who attains Mahasamadhi. It is a custom to bury people who attained Mahasamadhi.
Now, consider the following points:
Viji, Sadhguru’s wife, was cremated; not buried. Why?
She was cremated immediately and Jaggi Vasudev didn’t wait for his father in law to reach there in spite of the requests. The request made by Viji’s own father to wait was ignored. Why?
His father in law made a police complaint later that he was suspicious about Viji’s death and that Viji might have been murdered. It is true that anyone can make a police complaint and that doesn’t mean that the allegation is true. But the person who made the complaint was not just anyone, but Viji’s own father. Why? Think about it…
Viji was very young and her daughter was too young to lose her mother. Jaggi said Viji had planned her mahasamadhi few months before her death. No mother will do such a thing to her child and leave her child orphan. Why would anyone be in such a hurry to leave their body?
She didn’t even wait to see the completion of the consecration of Dhyanalinga. As per Jaggi’s own words, he has been working towards the consecration for three life times. He even decided where and in which womb Viji and others close to him should be born. His sole reason for being born this time was to consecrate Dhyanalinga. Even then, she irresponsibly left her body before the consecration was complete though she knew that she was also playing an important part in the consecration by forming an energy triangle with Jaggi and the other woman Bharti. And Jaggi, who had a lot of control over in which womb Bharti and Viji should be born, had zero control over her mahasamadhi. Why?
According to Jaggi, Viji was not an accomplished yogi. So it is a mystery how she learnt the art of leaving the body at will. Because, leaving the body at will is something that cannot be done so easily even by the advanced yogis. How did Viji, a normal householder and not an accomplished yogi was able to leave her body at will?
According to Jaggi, he has the power to peg people down if they are about to leave their body because of enlightenment. Still, Jaggi was not able to hold Viji down and stop her from leaving the body. Doesn’t it sound strange? Here is an excerpt from the book “‘Enlightenment – An inside story” and here is what Jaggi Vasudev said in that book:
Have you noticed in India, most of the Enlightened beings died very young? Any number of them, by the time they are thirty-two, they are over. Have you noticed this? Because, retaining the body needs lots of tricks. Realization is one aspect, but what the science of this body is, is another aspect. If you do not know the science of the body, if you do not have a grasp and control over the science of how this life and body are functioning in tandem, you cannot retain the body.
So you will have to play some tricks to retain the body. Various kinds of tricks are played by various Masters, but generally, only those who are on the path of Kriya generally manage their body; others cannot hold on to their body.
This is the reason why generally, when people attain to a certain peak, we will not let them reach the ultimate peak; we peg them down there. I have lots of people around me like this — they are just one step behind. They are in a certain exalted state, they have grown close to it, one more step means they will leave, but we will always hold them down there, so that their physical bodies run their full course. They have much more sense than other people, they are good manure for the world so we want them to be useful in the world. We want to enslave them and use them for everybody’s wellbeing, otherwise all the beautiful people will leave. (Laughter).
So we don’t let them go, climb the final step, until their bodies wear themselves out through the natural process of living. When they go beyond a certain age, then we take off the peg — then it is up to them. Until then we fix them down, because if full Enlightenment happens they will not know how to sustain the body unless they put in an enormous amount of study. You don’t like that? Personally, even I don’t like it, but I have some social responsibilities. (Laughs).
So, Why wasn’t Jaggi Vasudev able to stop Viji from leaving her body when he is able to stop everyone else in the ashram from doing so? He goes on to the say that since Viji was no more, he had to play the role of Viji as well and that not only delayed the consecration for another two years but it also caused severe damage to Jaggi’s body. According to him, he was almost dead in the process. Why didn’t he avoid all this trouble by ‘pegging down’ Viji?
Viji was not happy with Jaggi’s association with Bharti. It is mentioned in the book ‘Sadhguru: More than a Life by Arundhathi Subramaniam’ that the couple actually had quarrels regarding that.
Of course, police dismissed the case due to the lack of evidence. But you need to understand that if you give money to police in India, they will do anything. Our police department is not 100% free of corruption yet. A case can be dismissed if the sufficient bribe is paid.
Now, considering all the above facts, it is difficult to answer these questions if we accept that she died because of Mahasamadhi.
But everything seem to fit very well when we even assume for a minute that Jaggi killed his wife because of his relationship with Bharti , bribed the police to dismiss the case and created a fake story of mahasamadhi.
I leave the conclusion to you people who read this answer. If anyone really thinks they can solve the puzzles in the above 9 points properly with valid reasons, let them comment here and explain.
Finally, here is the news from the newspaper:

Update (31st Dec 2019):
With the help of environmental activist Piyush Manush of Salem, I got the actual FIR copies of the case:
f1.jpg
f2
f3.jpg
FB_IMG_1577807486927
As the complaint says, her father requested to not to shift the dead body for cremation. He also mentions that cremation was not a practice in his community. So, this is a very valid question. I am not saying Jaggi killed her but he certainly needs to answer the valid questions which are raised here.
By the way, My name is Shanmugam and I already have another website http://nellaishanmugam.wordpress.com. I have already written a lot about Jaggi raising various questions about his spiritual teachings and some claims he has made but due to constant bullying and trolling of Jaggi’s followers in totally inhuman ways, I chose to write this page anonymously. But now I have revealed my name here so that I can also invite you to read my other articles on Jaggi, which challenges his authenticity as a spiritual teacher.
I used to consider Jaggi as my guru and the only person I could trust. That lasted for nearly 15 years. But from 2017, I began raise some questions in my blog posts when I saw a lot of problems. I can’t explain everything here but you can follow this link to know more: Shanmugam P’s answer to Can anyone tell about their experiences with Jaggi Vasudev aka Sadhguru?
I was addressing him as ‘sadhguru’ in my posts in spite of all this but since the followers of this guru constantly tried to bully me, call me names, humiliate me etc for the last three years and since Jaggi did absolutely nothing to explain the doubts raised by people like me, I chose to stop calling him as sadhguru. It looks like a majority of his followers lost the ability to think logically. I just want to say one thing to them: Jaggi himself says truth is the authority and authority is not the truth. If you have understood that statement then you wouldn’t be so blind and hell bent to support and believe everything he says without thinking.

Read the Police report. Why didn’t your Guru respect his elder(father-in-law’s)request, to view and mourn, his daughter’s body?. How could your Guru be so insensitive?. What if it was your daughter at 32? Cremation releases the soul to quickly. Wake up, he intentionally called the crematory, or had one of his followers call them, woke them up, to burn his wife’s body quickly. But what do I know. I follow Bikram. Bikram may be a sexual predator. Prefer that to your murdering Guru. You’re following a murder but every sins. That’s a big one in my book. He’s well spoken and is helping many people but murdered only one person.

I wish my wife would attain mahasamadhi. I tried many ways but nothing works. Guess I’ll kill her somehow, cremate her body before anyone with a working brain gets a chance to do post mortem, and then invent some random ass concept that no one understands but me, which science laughs at and tell everyone this story.

Man u have really great appreciable guts . Every coin has two sides. When the heads side retains huge value and everyone wants to see only that side.its important to show the other side too that nobody wants to see.its really difficult to take a initiative and keep ur justification on an online platform where blind bulliers are constantly bullying u.i hope some but a little number of ppl agree u. Because as jaggi says enlightment is attained by few ppl. 😉
Folks!!
When one is enlightened he doesnt need to proove it to world.he can make his world beautiful by his own.
Life’s beauty , living a lively life is in facing it called life..
Not by making life’s difficulties a propaganda to fame oneself as spiritual guru. Hope so ppl of india soon get rid off these jholachaap babas. Orelse soon a girl will be r***d by onemore asaraam . And indian televesions will telecast sadhguru brand products..isko daanto par ghisne se enlighment aata h😁😁😁
Sir. Dont waste in awaking bu****it ppl. Some already aware ppl are not giving damn s***t concern to jaggi aka sadhguru.
Bad wills doesnt last long and ppl who r blindly following him will get soon thr enlightment followed by r**e fraudlent cheating etc.thats only thr punishment.

Looks like you are ideal moksha disciple of your ‘rascal’ guru. Man please confirm me when are you planning to take maha samadhi from your so called BJP guru ?
We, followers are of sanatana dharma, don’t need BJP guru or Khangress Guru or Murderer Guru or Billionaire Businessman Guru.
From mahabharat to ramayan, we never saw these kind of gurus in history of India. Only kaliyuga, is producing these type of gurus.
By the way, let us know if any of your so called rascal guru’s so called disciple are able to take mahasamadhi or your guru is planning to take.. We want to ask a doctor to do a post mortem after any of you guys take mahasamadhi drama.

Don’t make your own comments or philosophy to prove you are somewhat intelligent.
Just accept which you don’t perceive as you don’t know rather than commenting on someone.
I see picture of Ramana maharshi behind you even he said “I don’t know who am I”
When the hell you don’t even know your own self nature why the hell are messing yourself and others rather than find truth of thyself.

When I saw jiggi asked about it my first reaction was he killed her. This is something that doesnt surprise me and really it should but it does not. Wow I’m not even sure what to day.

I wish we could know the truth. Yes I follow Sadhguru but that’s only for knowledge. If people do wrong I won’t sit back and close my mouth. Ayurveda in Astangasangraha Hridayam states you can have good will for enemies but don’t help wicked people. That doesn’t mean we will blame and shout but try to find the truth and ironic thing is that I learnt this from Sadhguru. And till date he is proved guilty I may follow him but I won’t blindly follow or support anyone. As he says be sensible. Well we are the sensibile people here. Especially the author of this blog. He says question things. Well we are questioning. So.. where is our answer ? And I won’t believe any stuff. Answers needs evidences here. If you don’t have evidence for mahasamadhi or murder, it better to shut up and find it for real.

I really appreciate for the author of this blog who arose this questions,
But dose Sadhguru had Killed her wife or not??? With this question nothing is going to change in our life a bit, if he had done that he will face his own karma why we people are discussing it here ???
Even some of the famous people have this kind of allegations or even we , ourself have done lots of wrong thing in are life
So why we people are discussing here someone else life ,for things for which we don’t have at-least 1% of knowledge
Even Viji’s father had told sadhguru ,not to cremate her body is big question, author just given a photocopies which can be easily edited on photoshop and make 1000 of copies
We dont know the documents are authentic neither we have viji’s father confession , on what basis we are going to prove this things
N why Anyone must answer his personal life is that a compulsion written in any constitution
And one more thing most of the time Sadguru keeps program in every city so participant in this blog who need answers can directly approach him there for answers rather than discussing here

Averiguando sobre él y su vida, descubrí que su esposa murió joven, y buscando pude encontrarme con tu página web, que interesante, ahora no se que pensar.
Quizás él mató a su esposa.
¿Nadie le ha preguntado personalmente a sadhguru si él asesinó a su esposa?
Excelente página, no te desanimes, sigue adelante, la verdad debe ser conocida.
