16 June 2017 - Assassins hunt for His Divine Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda and brutally attack Monks
On 16th June 2017, a group of Sanyasis (male and female) were at Pavazha Kundru in Tiruvannamalai, offering puja (ritualistic worship) to The Sadashiva Shila. The district collector came with Police force and a huge group of people and removed the Sanyasis’ huts, manhandled them and finally arrested them. Ma Nithya Satyajnanananda Swami who was present at the time recounts: "Female sanyasis (Hindu monks) sharing about how they were manhandled and how much gross injustice was done to them.
We have all the documents with clear records to prove that since 2006, Swamiji is doing a lot of services like annadaan, teaching free meditation and yoga in this place. The local people are so happy with this, but the Hindu extremist terrorist elements want to grab this land. So they gave a false complaint against us. Without even listening to our side of the story, the District Collector ordered to remove the hut and the deities worshipped. So the Sub-Collector came with the officials and tore down the hut while we are sitting inside.
They abused the deities, touching them while wearing slippers, and abused ladies, pulling on our sarees and our hands. They pulled and pushed us. Not even 5 mins was given for us to explain our side. And very sad this is: the rock that we were worshipping as Sadashiva is being abused with slippers and liquor bottles. The trishulam (trident) was broken. This directly hurts our religious sentiments."

Media houses like Sun Television, however, once again launched the ‘justification propaganda’ campaign to drive out the Sanyasis (Hindu monks) from their own land, rightfully owned by His Divine Holiness. They falsely spread the news as an issue of illegal land occupancy and encroaching the land!
16 June 2017 - Mob attempts to Lynch Three Innocent Sanyasis at Pavazha Kundru
Repeated Attacks by assassins – incited with hatred by Hindu extremist terrorist elements – on Sadashiva Shila, at Pavazha Kundru in Tiruvannamalai.
- On 16 June 2017, a mob of 80+ persons life attacked 3 innocent Sanyasis (Hindu monks) who were taking care of the Sadashiva Shila (rock worshipped as a living deity) at Pavazha Kundru.
22 June 2017 - Another life-attempt on Paramahamsa Nithyananda ends in illegal arrest of His Sanyas disciples at Pavazha Kundru, Tiruvannamalai
On 22 Jun 2017, the disciples of His Divine Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda, were offering abhishekam (sacred bath) during the puja (ritualistic worship) when the media staged a ‘justification propaganda campaign’ and the police exploited the weakness, in numbers, of the sanyasis (Hindu monks). All of a sudden, police and press media personnel, expecting the physical presence of His Divine Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda at the spot, arrived and started recording the sacred ritual on camera and televising it live. They made absurd statements as television commentary lines, speaking about the event with distorted lies.
Without any reason, the policeman suddenly dragged the disciples and illegally arrested them! Two women Sanyasis were in the Sanyasis group. As per the law, women cannot be held in the police station after 6 pm. Completely violating this rule, they held the female Sanyasis in the police station till 7:30 pm. In such preposterous ways, Hindu monks and Hindu rituals and sacred sentiments were treated, harassing and instil fear in them to subjugate them. All the surprise attacks are a direct life-attempt on His Divine Holiness.
Different sections of media covered the attack FALSELY reporting that Sanyasis were trying to encroach the land. This can be seen from the captions that these news clips are carrying on the top right corner.
18 May 2018 - Abuse of the Sadashiva Shila
On 18th May 2018, Hindu terrorist militant elements, abuse the sacred Sadashiva Shila (sacred rock) on Pavazha Kundru in Tiruvannamalai; attempted to lynch the devotee when they could not reach His Divine Holiness. The devotee came to offer puja to the Sadashiva Shila.
The attackers assaulted him with stones and sharp weapons, and criminally intimidated him hurling life threats, deterring him from continuing worship. The aged caretaker lady who lives there was also attacked, suffering head injury inflicted by assassins.
The persistent abusal of this rare heritage site and life-attacks by Hindu extremist militant forces clearly reveals their demoniac agenda to destroy Sanatana Hindu Dharma (Hinduism), completely by destroying such spiritually significant Hindu sites and the people protecting them.
The attackers tore and pulled down the saffron robe placed on the Sadashiva Shila, bringing it on the ground and also unearthed the sacred Trishul (trident) damaging it beyond repair.
