About going to the ashram to see for oneself.it is probably not worth the effort or the expense.

Anything reported by an unbiased observer who reports having posed as a Mooji disciple will have his or her reports dismissed by devotees who claim that a non devotee lacks the right attitude.

Two, none of us knows in advance the extent to which we can be influenced and lose boundary identity when we enter a closed group follow its routine, its diet and its sleep wake cycle. Sitting amidst a crowd kept waiting for a gurus arrival can have a powerful effect. A psychiatrist visiting an ashram noted this in himself.

*No lots of times gurus keep the crowds waiting. Great show business, it builds suspense. It also shows who is boss. And it reinforces the submission of those waiting. Keeping us waiting is a display of ego. And if you say this is Indian tradition, India is a rank ordered society with no inhibition about displaying superiority over subordinates.

No, what happens here is an enactment of power vs submission. No need to dress in black leather or flourish a whip. Trouble is that in most guru situations no one is allowed to discuss power and discuss limits or a way to signal when things are being taken too far and its time to stop.

No, best to leave the undercover visits to trained persons and whose sponsoring organizations pay the expenses.

Besides, do you want Moo to get any of your money?
