Media Attacks Force the Two Sisters to Fight Parents Legally🔗

When the first poisonous defamatory article was published in Nakheeran Magazine, Ma Preeta Swami was in Chennai. After this, she visited Kanyakumari (Temple town in South India) for a family function, and there she was accosted by local thugs, who said to her:

‘Oh, you can be with your Swamiji, then why can’t you stay with us too!’

Unable to stand this sexual abuse, she and her sister decided to immediately head back to Chennai, while their parents decided to be in Kanyakumari for a few more weeks.

Once back in Chennai, her parents started to call them continuously and demand about their life plans and told them they cannot return back to the Aadheenam. Her parents were following the news published in newspapers and on TV continuously and becoming paranoid about their daughters. Their father told them:

“You both have to come to Kanyakumari, otherwise I will give a complaint to police, saying Swamiji kidnapped my daughters! I will send you two to prison and say that Swamiji kidnapped you!”

Ma Nithya Preetananda Swami reflects over this and shares,

“When my father was saying this, I knew clearly that he would do it. Our family was well known in our local community and whatever my parents would say, people would believe. The Police would do anything my father told them to. My father had a plan to put me in prison for six months. He wanted to put me in fear so that I would not go back to the Aadheenam again.”

She took the courage and decided to give a police complaint against her parents. They managed to draft their complaint letter. She recollects a few words from the original complaint draft,

‘We are legally major. My parents are forcing me to get married. I’m not interested, please protect me from them. I am a Brahmacharini of the Nithyananda Order and I wish to go back to the ashram. If my father gives any complaint against Swamiji, please do not accept it.’

Ma Nithya Preetananda Swami and her sister packed all their belongings that day and escaped from their hostel to go to the lawyer’s office. They knew that as soon as their parents found out, they would rush back from Kanyakumari and take action against the two sisters.

‘Meanwhile, my other family members found out that our bags were not in the hostel room, so they called my parents to Kanyakumari and informed them. My parents immediately came to Chennai. I immediately called my mother and told her that since my sister was working a night shift, we would return home late. However, knowing this is a lie, my mother said that she would wait till the following morning. If we did not return, they planned on going to the police.”

The lawyer told Ma Preeta and her sister to stay in his office till the next day. Ma Nithya Preetananda Swami continues:

“We agreed and the next morning, we went to the commissioner’s office and gave our complaint to him. He was the same person to whom Lenin Karuppan (one of the conspirators against His Divine Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda) gave his complaint against Swamiji to. Unknowingly, I gave my complaint to the same commissioner.’

The Sub-Inspector was sympathetic at first, until he read His Divine Holiness name on the complaint. He began to shout

‘Are you mad? Your Swamiji is a womanizer and you want to go to him? If your father will give a complaint to me, I will put you in prison’.

Ma Preeta became angry and told him:

When some stupid guy is giving you a CD, you believe him but when I am telling you directly that Swamiji is not like that, why are you not believing me? And now you are even threatening me?”

The Sub-Inspector told Ma Preeta that he had recorded everything that was said and that they would imprison her for what she told the commissioner. When she left his office, the press was already there.

The next morning, the episode was published in all newspapers and magazines in Tamil Nadu. The article title was ‘Nithyananda’s disciple gave a complaint to the commissioner”, making it falsely seem as though they filed a complaint against His Divine Holiness.

Their father gave a complaint to the police against His Divine Holiness regarding the two sisters.

“We went to Mylapore police station and we explained what was really happening. We were constantly hounded by the media for interviews. They followed our every step. With the help of devotees, we made it back to the Aadheenam safely, and continue our choice to live as Sanyasis.”

After this, Nakkheeran published another article about them, saying they returned to the Aadheenam out of fear. False statements given in the Nakkheeran article :
