Sex with actresses is Nithyananda's 'experiment'

A week after pure heart Swami Nithyananda was caught experiencing Divine Intervention on tape with actresses Ragasudha and Rajitha, the Godman surfaced at a hotel in Haridwar. The tainted Swami continued to defend himself and said that he did not do anything illegal, and that pleasuring himself was a part of an 'experiment' that he was conducting.

His statement conflicts with his earlier explanations, when he'd said that he was never in the tape and that his face had been morphed into another person's body. He had then also claimed that he was indeed in the video but was in a religious trance and had no awareness of the incident. "I have heard the news reports which have hurt me greatly," said Nityananda. "I am going into deep silence to heel all the physical and mental pain caused by of all the people who so ever might have caused it. I want to assure all of you that nothing illegal has been done by me or by any of my organizations. I am in the process of collecting evidence against the smear campaign that has been going on against me."

Earlier it was reported that Nithyananda had tried to murder a resident at the Nithyananda ashram at Bidadi near Bengaluru because the godman had found out that he had filmed his sex tape. Nithya Premananda, alias Lenin Karuppan,has petitioned the Chennai police seeking protection from Nithyananda. He complained that he was chased down by Nithyananda's goons from Bengaluru right up to Salem and that he was lucky to escape to Chennai. According to the police Lenin had sent across 63 copies of the sex tape to various media houses and other institutions, besides important persons across the country and 23 more to the Nithyananda ashrams and devotees abroad. There was also a 5-page letter from a 23-year-old woman, an inmate of the Bidadi ashram who claimed that Nithyananda had raped and sexually harassed dozens of women in the ashram.

The Sun News, a Tamil news channel aired the shocking video last Wednesday - the footage contains imagery of the actresses massaging the Swami's feet and feeding him delicacies, before getting in bed with him.
