Controversy
Until December 1990, Joy Zuckerman was living at Yogaville, where she was known as Krupaananda. She left after a friend claimed to her that Satchidananda had made sexual advances toward her the previous summer, Zuckerman said. In 1991, placard-carrying protesters demonstrating against the alleged transgressions marred one of Satchidananda's local public appearances, a speech at the Omni Hotel. Satchidananda denied the allegations.

Famous quotes containing the word controversy:
“And therefore, as when there is a controversy in an account, the parties must by their own accord, set up for right Reason, the Reason of some Arbitrator, or Judge, to whose sentence, they will both stand, or their controversy must either come to blows, or be undecided, for want of a right Reason constituted by Nature; so is it also in all debates of what kind soever.”
—Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)
“Ours was a highly activist administration, with a lot of controversy involved ... but I’m not sure that it would be inconsistent with my own political nature to do it differently if I had it to do all over again.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
