A retired professor had alleged that his two daughters had been "brainwashed" into permanently staying at Sadhguru's Isha Yoga Centre.
When spiritual leader Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev got his own daughter married, why is he encouraging young women to tonsure their heads and renounce worldly lives to live like hermits, the Madras High Court has questioned.
A bench of Justices SM Subramaniam and V Sivagnanam posed the question for the Isha Foundation founder after a retired professor alleged that his two well-educated daughters had been "brainwashed" into permanently staying at the Isha Yoga Centre.
S Kamaraj, who used to teach at the Tamil Nadu Agricultural University in Coimbatore, had filed a petition seeking the appearance of his daughters in person in the court.
