  • omg i love louis. he makes everyother religion look like garbage.

  • wait, why are they all white?

  • @ProfitMuhammed don't you know that white people take over everything? haha

  • fuckin BS lol

  • a real guru wouldent care if u touch their feet lol

  • The god head is within all,it is too powerful to be within one-the lightning for example is next to nothing in power compared to the godhead creator of all.I feel like truth is not being told by the guru's as they dont tell others they are all god head split into many sparks of the one.

  • 1:10 Gordon - the magic word to open umbrellas in india.

  • Louis Theroux is such an annoying piece of shit... looks as though he was Polish or something similar....

  • this indian philosophy is bull shit

  • @Zabatsion and who are you to say that?

  • @gargos25 who am i? i am the target of the gurus, i am the one who is wanted to follow the gurus, i am the one they want to show a path, i am the one who want to follow them, i am the one expected to say to gurus here they are my mastor....because of these i give my opinon..and here it go= gurus are fucked up scams, gurus are money makers, gurus are bullshits

  • @Zabatsion but aren't we always following some gurus? politicians, teachers, club leaders, preachers, some of your friends and even your parents actually fulfill the same role often... these people simply chose a different guru... people in most societies are in such constellations... the ones who understand this, want to become the guru, of course...

  • Mt 6:7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

  • "how many vibrations can you take?" lol

    I've asked my gf that a few times.

  • Another bunch of LOST westerners externalizing their issues into the Exotic orient.

  • I don't know who's worse...the fay yank charlatan or the fucking dumbos that are following him around!

  • I'm happy to touch Louis' feet :)

  • This guy doesnt seem like a guru to me, do you think JC would care if people touched his feet??

  • Why is this gentlemen walking around carrying a tape recorder?

    "Cos err spiritual master sound vibration is transcendental... so the sound vibration of the spiritual master is very important... for devotees."

    *Guru Gordon looks to hairless crony with a cue-ball noggin...

    ( inner dialog ) Smile and say nothing...

    ...thats the moment i PMSL :) haha, ah dear me... superb editing to, Louis & team your brilliant!

  • intresting this

    odd people though!

  • hahahhahaha Are they bowing to me or to you?

  • how can someone who is supposed to be spiritually enlightened be concerned with such a base emotion like embarasment?

  • @megapig10 well i guess that is just basic human emotions and feelings that you will experience no matter who u are

  • That 'guru' strikes me as being fake and falling very short of being someone who is free of struggle or in a state of any sort of enlightened bliss. Just my opinion! :)

  • Im Indian and a Hindu myself, but I just find this entire concept of Hare krishnas to be quite absurd.... But hey i respect them cause its their personal choice, they have freedom of religion and somehow its almost preferable than other theocratic religions where freedom is limited....

  • @Cryptorchild92 And how would you define yourself as "Hindu", my good sir? "Hindu" is a term introduced by the Moghul invaders because they couldn't pronounce the name of the Vedic civilisation. The Hare Krishna movement follows 'Hinduism' in its PUREST form. They abstain from meat, intoxication (inc. alcohol, tea & coffee, cigarettes), gambling and illicit sex, and spend their whole lives chanting the names of God and studying the Bhagavad Gita and Srimad Bhagavatam.

    Do you do any of that?

  • @gdas220991 No I dont, Because I happen to have a Life...

  • @Cryptorchild92 Ok, well why don't you take that 'life' of yours and actually do some research into the Hare Krishnas, and your own conception of what 'Hinduism' is, before making ignorant comments like that. People like you give Hinduism a bad name.

  • @gdas220991 How am I giving Hinduism a bad name anyway?... i'm just living my life, studying, working, being a part of a functional society, being with my family and friends, struggling, succeeding .. Just because i dont lock myself up in a room chanting hare krishna all day long, doesnt make me any worse of a person, or any worse a Hindu... I never insulted hare krishna, but merely commented how the very concept is absurd... I believe in god as a hindu, and for me, i believe that is enough..

  • @Cryptorchild92 What about the very concept is absurd? "Hindus" follow Bhagavad Gita, the Hare Krishnas follow Bhagavad Gita. 'Hindus' worship Visnu/Krsna, the Hare Krishnas worship Visnu/Krsna. Do some research, man! Open your mind a little bit. So ignorant.

  • Toot toot toot ....

  • ahhhh... i'm so glad to be an atheist, a skeptic, a cynic, an anarchist, and a misanthropic humanist. come at me with a doctrine to save my soul i'll cram it up your ass.

  • at the end

    LOUIS; "i could get used to it"

    Oh you kinky boy Louis ;)

  • what a fraud

  • Its unbelievable how brainwashed and delusional these people are.

  • I was a Krishna devotee once. And I liked Jayapataka, I found his presence and example very inspiring. But I wasn't able to commit to it long-term. Too many doubts regarding the philosophy. Still, I learned alot both from the Iskcon movement, and from teachers such as Jayapataka. I still can't help liking his gentle nature and sense of humour about things. And his devotion to God.

  • @mrhellwung1

    Jayapataka (aka Gordon John Erdman II) seems like a nice enough guy, and according to the Wiki page he was a dedicated follower of the founder, who combined the hard work of organizing, building temples, printing books, teaching agriculture to the locals, leading pilgrimages and of course, preaching. A true guru.

    However, this kind of devotion that surrounds him is unnatural and unhealthy, and caused many of his colleagues to go off the rails into corruption.

  • God loves this guy so much that he made him into a detard. Many people would notice the differance ! haha

  • @AssSprinkle:And you called hinduism illogical....but many of the world's greatest thinkers called it most logical....so we can see who is illogical here.....and s,definatly hindu's r stupid n that is why you dont see them bombing half of the world...or trying to baptise the world,dey r nly peaceful...if hinduism wouldnt do any good, it is impossible that any other religion with intolerence can...you dont know anything about hinduism or any other eastern religion,so learn dem b4 u critisize....

  • @AssSprinkle:Dont speak about something u dont know about my friend.....Hindus dont worship animals they respect them,they belive GOD is Omnipresent,and they do not consider people from an other religion as infidels(probably you do cause you nasty comments shows you intollerence towards others)........and for your information in olden times there were'nt antiseptics like today so they use to consume cow's urine to be immune to the illhealth...they dont do it now.....Im sorry your ignorant....

  • What you see in the video is the natural fruit of Hinduism.

    Hinduism worships animals such as rats, cows and monkeys as well as drinking cow urine and their own urine. Do you think such a religion would have any good effects for man? Hari Krishnas are the result. Hinduism is the most illogical and stupid religion going. Imagine that, worshipping animals LOL.

  • @AssSprinkle Imagine that, worshipping Jesus LOL.

    Oh yeah he's not real and neither is God. :D

  • @AssSprinkle I dont believe in hare krishna theory, But you calling Hinduism illogical and stupid is a FAILURE on your part... And we've had better effects on man then other theocratic religions who have led to bloodshed, fundamentalism and hatred...

  • For proper Hare Krishna information, please visit my spiritual Youtube channel, its /user/devarsi

  • Its easy to become a guru,just make up random shit that will attract people.

  • so how the fuk do I become a Guru?

  • @Microglia1 make up some random shit???

  • They all have the hots for the guru.

  • wth hi is so fake ,,, he look mean!!!!! that not a good mentor,,,

  • Check out youtube video TtOMWWB5ufA

    It shows this guy after his stroke.

    The funny thing is that prayer did nothing to help him, and he didn't have the common sense to realise obesity is more likely to give you a stroke... so he certainly wasn't enlightened by any means.

  • what he meant by not wanting them to touch his feet because it projects their vibrations on him was that if he is looked upon as the source of holiness, then they won't associate it with the real thing.

  • Gordon is a bogus guru who poisoned the real Guru Srila Prabhupada!

    He had a brain-hemmorage a few years ago. He's a demon.

  • wow, that Britt was Stupid

  • Why must one human consider themself greater than another. Aren't we all made of the same stuff. We are all as good and bad as each other. Some people just have their flaws in check more, but this does not make them greater just easier.

  • And this is insanity. He is no more near god then every 1 else!

  • He does not like people touching his feet, bad vibrations, what he really means is he does not want to catch Leprosy.

  • I am the guru of the sacred brotherhood of beer, chicks, toga parties and TV...anyone wanna be my disciple?

  • @videogamenostalgia

    Amen to that.

  • @videogamenostalgia command me oh my guru!!

  • @Frostblock I demand that you buy lots of beer, wear a toga al the time, have a lot of sex and watch lots of TV. Do this of me, and be my disciple!

  • @videogamenostalgia SHALOM-SALEM-AMEN-ALAIKUM I'LL DO! Now lemme touch yo feet!

  • @Frostblock That'll be £50,000 for your first session, and £60,000 for each subsequent session. £30 to touch the holy feet. AL-BAK-ALAIKUM!!!!

  • there is 2 hot white girls there.

  • dutch guy  with the tape recorder lol

    grz.

    destockplace

  • This man does not have the aura of a true guru, and he is clearly misrepresenting Krishna's teachings. All things to do with Krishna are transcendental (please understand the Hare Krishna movement is Vaisnava Hinduism and was spread to the West by Prabhupada), yet this man is teaching that all things to do with him are transcendental. It is true a GENUINE guru should be respected and followed as God, but that does not involve worshipping the guru himself.

  • Hippies! AArgh!

  • overloaded yeah lol

  • great journalist this guy

  • God it's a weird world.

  • thetasty shut up get a life surrender to krishna save ur soul

  • "are they bowing to me or to you"

    silence

    "....oh, just kdding."

  • Why this western gurus are fat ??

  • @mamoodh This guru was gravely attacked a number of years ago (I t hink it was in the 90s) in an airport in Spain by a disturbed person. After recovering in the hospital, his weight increased and he has stayed heavy.

  • @DavidInSugarLand So we can say this guru have a lot of karma?

  • @mamoodh Don't know, but definitely I have more than he does.

  • @mamoodh Exactly mamoodh. A true guru is a vegetarian (I'm not preaching to you, I'm not a vegetarian myself), that's said in the Vedas, the ancient Hindu books of knowledge, and is verified in the later Vedanta texts. To be overweight and a vegetarian is quite the feat. This "guru" is a fraud.

  • ,,,how many vibrations can you take, hu .. ? Moron

  • Was it me or was it that all those followers seemed really smiley and creepy?

  • @Warfresco

    They're taught to stop thinking. I think a lot of these people who have been into it for years, have become drones, basically.

  • the "guru" seems abit embarassed by his own followerd...ok followers. or follow-herd. lol

  • the "guru" seems abit embarassed by his own followerd.

  • how can i be a guru,is there an application form i need to fill out ?

  • Haha op 2:10 een Nederlander.

  • I was in the hare krishnas once.gurus are like doctors,most of them are rubbish,but there are some good ones.I don,t know this guru that well but I am pretty sure there are no scandals attached to him.It is an individuals choice if they want to follow him,and blind following of a guru is never encouraged.Hindus,and the hare krishnas which is a hindu branch do actually have a philosophy.

  • any religion that glorifies a single human and treats him as king is .. questionable

  • @selfsenter I think if we know the deepest meaning of putting your master in a high profile is not the reason that your making him as a King like an ordinary understanding of a King. Base on the vaisnavas (a pure soul or pure devotee) etiquette. Giving your whole life to your master is the only way that you will gain his mercy and advance in spiritual platform. Forgive my words

  • @Notdevotee

    Why devote your whole life to a master and not the intended god?

    A dude is following him around holding an umbrella... Whats the spiritual meaning behind that

    Mercy should be granted by the being you worship not a human

    One recognizes his/her spiritual advancement through actions. good deeds and being a better person towards other people.

    If i belong to a religion and follow its teachings my spiritual platform rises by default without the need of another human granting me that rank

  • @selfsenter We have to understand that obeying the master doesn't mean you are replacing the position of the Supreme God to him which is not. The reason why the master should be obey or be given a full respect because he is a representative of God. This is not an act of idolatry, but because of your love you offer your heart to him. The spiritual master is like your father in your home that he's the one who cultivates you until you become mature enough and capable to live independently. PEACE.

  • @selfsenter Also, We have to be careful because there's a lot of spiritual master that is fake. So, we have to be careful by choosing the right one. If you are a master... all the prestige was given to you by your devotee, but because of that many fake spiritual master arises and many followers are misled. I pity those who are true follower who aim for Spiritual advancement who take shelter to a non-representative of GOD.

  • i really wish Louis make new episodes ,,, 

  • Those people are so brainwashed. They think that lard-ass is the chosen one or something?

    That American Guru knows he doesn't have a connection with "god" he just stays there and enjoys the life of a God. He went, and found stupidity, so he made use of the stupid people.

  • @bluegama500 everything you just said...was everything i was thinking...like how stupid can people get...and how naive can people get in the fact that they are complete losers...following a fatass wanna be...i would slap the shit outta him...thats the first thing that came to mind..

  • @theband100 lol maybe your similar to me. :D

    Anyway I'm sure i would rather do something better with my time than follow some diabetic "god"

  • I doubt an orthodox Hindu would agree with what's going on here.

  • Big fat fake

  • Just new devotees. How about now?

  • the devil comes wearing white.

  • AND the money he gets from them ;)

  • i used to volunteer at an ashram in exchange for food because i had lost my job, i always knew that the krishnas were a friendly but a weird, but this shit is just wrong.

  • It looks crazy but look how peaceful they are. They're not bombing people or fucking choirboys. Many world religions could benefit from their example.

  • @ch1mpanzeethat

    There is a lot of child abuse the Hare Krishna organization.

  • @Mrgyn

    Oh ok. In that case - fuck 'em.

  • @ch1mpanzeethat

    Yes indeed.

  • @ch1mpanzeethat No, not religions. But CULTURE! Religions dosn´t make hate, but Culture does!!!

  • @Feces4You4Ever religions dont make hate ? R u for real? Hare Krsnas could be the exception though

  • @ch1mpanzeethat its only christianity, judaism and islam that cant get along really, most other religions are peacefull.. the shame is that all these religions are SUPPOSED to advocate peace and love for all neightbours.. people are stupid

  • @ch1mpanzeethat Looks like an overpopulated shit hole that needs bombing.

  • @csno1 Silly American :)

  • @Outlawzand1 I'm not American.

  • @csno1 I'm not American either.

  • @ch1mpanzeethat I don't think anyone could have put it any better.

  • aaaaaaahhh what is this madness??!?!

  • gullible people will always be found by gurus...

  • @pcvideogamer or in gurus.

  • @pcvideogamer a real "guru" doesnt seek out people, fool

  • @Jyotinanda108 ahh sorry, in that case... gullible people will be lead by gurus!, cheers to you.

  • @pcvideogamer yeah....smart

  • @pcvideogamer Gurus will always be found by gullible people. An ancient Chinese proverb or possibly Yoda.

  • are they bowing to me or to you? ahaha

  • I don't believe in hypnosis. I believe in gullibility and a non-education.

    Yeah sure, don't eat meat (starvation), don't have sex (repression, which leads to tingles up the spine and holding in wee), don't gamble (give your money to me instead, and repeat something short endlessly to hyperventilate with other people. Carry that lot on for some time and combine it with religion and study of only one book, and you have a gauranteed high. Let's not forget, God is satchitananda.

  • @klindred actualy tension from sex can be released by doing hard workouts, like building or farming. it's much more productive , but i guess not pleasurable. :)

  • @klindred Also, dont be a fool. Eating only vegetables will DEFINITELY not lead you to starvation. Vegetables ,cereal and stuff like beans can provide EVERYTHING that body needs, including high amounts of protein(not as high as meat, but meat has many other variants that makes it unhealthy,such as toxins and bad fat) , Vitamins, aminoacids, and lots of other minerals and trace elements.

    Your statement is ridicously stupid.

  • All this guru, religion bullshit is absolute bullshit, but eh whatever makes you happy.

  • Fuckin COMMERCIALS ? FUCKIN BULLSHIT ! YOUTUBE YOU FUCKIN SELLOUTZZZ!!!!!!!

  • In part he´s been worship because he is a white guy on a third world country land. It started with colonialism and Its still prevelant in this days in many third world countries. up to this days they teach their children than white people are better than everybody else.

  • Dear Panamanubian, You may be off target on that, his preaching is from the original Veda's of Pre-Historic India. In actuality, all races originate from one source, each with specific karma. Basically we 're all suffering in one mode or the other. People are human beings first, then advancement begins.

    peace, cchas

  • @chaslind Dear Chaslind, I live in Panama at the moment, I live in a third world country that still suffers from colonialmentality, because; eveng dough, we separated from Spain, more than a 100 years ago, we never created a mentality; nor a culture aside from the ones of the colonizers,

  • @panamanubian : I agree that colonization is the process introduced by the Christians who believed they ruled the world. Jayapataka swami is not Christian, and he does not agree with colonization.

  • @chaslind In Panama if you are a white person just like this guy, Gordon, you get worship exactly the same way, people would look at him as superior, and as more atractive, and eveng as more intelligent for the fact that he is white just like the colonizers, Peace.

  • @chaslind This guy went to India, and realized that people there worshiped him for the fact that he is white, he realized that, that was not going to happen in the United States, for in his native country, he is just a white fat guy, who was not going to impress nobody, so he decided to stay there where he is look and treated like a God by people with low self esteem.

  • @panamanubian : People do not worship him because he is white. Actually he had a difficult time in India in the beginning because many Indians were suspicious of white people who preached Indian religion. And in fact people do not worship him at all. They pay respect because he is preaching the message of the Vedic scriptures and ultimately the word of Krishna (Bhagavad Gita)

  • @panamanubian : These people have a very high self esteem because they understand that they are the servants of Lord Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. They also understand that they are not this body, but are in fact spirit soul, so don't worry about their self esteem, instead worry about your own spiritual advancement. Please read the Bhagavad Gita translated and commented by Srila Bhaktivedanta swami.

  • @amit1947 you remind me off my self, when I was religious and used to be told by others that I was being used, I used to fight back and defend the people I was worshiping, sorry "helping" they did help me ass a matter of fact, they helped me to spend my credit card and got me in financial trouble. when I look back I look at those days, as the dark period off my life when I used to fallow religios leaders and get all exited with then, I overcome, Jesus has take me a long way away from them.

  • @panamanubian : Do you really follow in the steps on Jesus? You were taken advantage of, unfortunately, because you were ignorant like most people are. There are the cheaters and the cheated. Its pretty obvious when people start asking for your credit card...Also only God and his true devotees should be worshiped. If someone is claiming to be God conscious but is clearly not, then they are a cheat, and should be physically punished, it is grave crime.

  • @amit1947 One day you are going to look back, and you are going to kick yourself in the ass, and ask yourself  "what the fuck was I thinking," the sooner you get away from that mess the sooner you´re going to be able to get your life back.

    In Jesus name, Amen.

  • @panamanubian : No, I'll be kicking myself when I start posting videos about Little Wayne and Lenny Kravitz as you have. Krishna is the Name, Haribol, speak the name of the Lord.

  • @amit1947 I´m glad to see a lot of white people following him, It helps to fight the stereotype that black people are stupid, and it proves that people turn stupid when their selfesteem had been hurt, I hope that you are not this huy "Gordon" from L.A. answering to me, because trust me you not getting a knickel for any Frenchfrise from me.

  • "i can get used to it"

  • he sounds like the Godfather

  • hell will be their eternal abode if they don't come to Christ-Jesus Christ that is

  • Dear Filolll, Only God's abode is eternal. Hell also ultimately disintegrates too, but it takes a lonnng time.

    peace, cchas

  • keep your vibrations for yourself.

  • "The spiritual master brings you closer to God......"

    Hmmm....even if the spiritual master is some fat guy called Gordon? LOL

  • @StanPomeray : A guru's body isn't really important. What is important is the knowledge he has. In this case, Jayapataka swami, born Gordon, has this knowledge of God so he instructs it to others. He also has a guru, named Bhaktivedanta swami, and his guru had a guru, etc. You see this is religious tradition dating back thousands of years.

  • @amit1947 come on dont hide the facts. iskon had 12 gurus at the begnining after ac bhaktivedanta swami nearly all have fallen down. so why should people keep their faith in them? its the same as how ac bhaktivendanta swami said. christianity failed its people, they didnt follow jesus. same rules apply to everyone. we are al equal spirit souls so if we can judge the christians we should judge ourselves in an equal way

  • @krish108 : I agree that those who call themselves gurus, where ever they are to be found, must meet the strict criteria of spiritual life with all the various rules and regulations. If someone in such a position fails, then they can no longer be looked at for guidance and should be punished depending on the degree of fall down.

  • "I could get used to it" haha! Louis' one liners are classic!

  • Touch my feet my bitches ! ha j/k

    Louis has great deadpan stone face humor

  • WTF if i wanted to see an add at the start i'll turn on the TV

  • Guru sounds like a quack. Bowing and touching feet gives overloaded vibrations my ass. It is a sign of immense respect (usually reserved towards ones elders or parents). Often the recipient would stop the person because they do not feel worthy of such an honour and they do not want the other person to feel inferior or lower but acknowledged as an equal.

  • white...gurus 0_0

  • @premachu3 i seen a black guru once

  • @lowrida82 where/whos this black guru?

    This i gotta see

  • @premachu3 lol i was talking shit xD I couldnt find him either

  • @lowrida82 lol there is a black guru called "Mooji". Have fun! I didn't.

  • God does not discrimnate against its beings, if everything is his creation. How can god not love everything he created.

    In Hindu culture, the GURU gets the same position as god. You must follow the path shown by your chosen GURU. So the choice is yours. Your parents are in same position as God and then the GURU.

    You might just say that the person above is just a man.

  • Or how about their is no evidence for God so why believe he exists and everything in this video is just made up nonsense

  • i wanna be a guru...and just have female followers that obey my every command

  • @TheTastyPineapple : The type of behavior you suggest is punishable by death. So you could try to be a Guru and take advantage of female followers, but you should be killed for it.

  • @TheTastyPineapple ur corrupted ass......

  • @TheTastyPineapple Fuck you

  • He is the one of those who poisoned Srila Prabhupada to death back in 1977

  • @MsGigmaster

    Yeah right, Kiss my ass

  • Comment removed

  • they just cut the video up and showed the most awkward parts for entertainment value, duh

  • this fat man is not a folower of sril prabhupada.

    Krsna forgive this poor.

  • @shubhabratasom i don't think krsna wears bling rings either.

  • i grew up as a hare krishna but lucky i have normal parents. this kind of thing is exactly why i dont say im part of iskon cause its a mad house.

    the philosophy is great if u ignore the crazy people

  • @krish108 : Are you sure?

  • Haribol! Lovers of God who is Lord Krishna! He is the Supreme Person! Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
