When scientific researchers proposed to measure
Yogi Bhajan's meditative and yogic abilities, he said:
You cannot do me, my brain frequency will melt your machinery.
Dr Ron Alexander (formerly Shama Singh)
was recruited by Yogi Bhajan to co-found the original Kundalini Research Institute
and the Center for Health and Healing at Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
He has been teaching yoga psychology, mindfulness and trauma-informed yoga since 1974,
and travels the world teaching and conducting training and workshops.
On Dec 22, 2020 GuruNishan interviewed him°.
As a student at Massachussets University, Dr Ron studied different yoga and meditation techniques.
In 1972 he took his first KY class.
He and his fellow student meet Yogi Bhajan for the first time.
YB called them 'Scientific Saints'.
They studied Swami Rama in meditation and intend to do the same with Yogi Bhajan.
YB agrees if they agree to start the Kundalini Yoga Research Institute (KRI).
YB does not want to be measured.
His brain would melt their machinery.
Instead Pamela (Premka) has to be measured.
Also a second and third attempt to measure YB failed.
He was the only 'guru' around in the 70s
who wanted to escape a scientific measurement
of his yogic and meditative abilities.
Dr Ron witnessed Yogi Bhajan telling stories beyond believability!
Medical doctors, devotees of Bhajan nodded their heads at these stories,
but said nothing.
When Dr Ron confronted YB, he said You are negative and lack devotion.
The first Teacher Training manuals were created
by 'the scientist saints'.
Dr Ron explains how Yogi Bhajan prepared to teach
about the Neutral Mind ...
Confronted with the fact he made it all up,
YB said: You discovered the inner secrets to my teaching.
Secretaries had to leave the room while the scientists were visiting.
95% of his teachings were junk.
One day a mother with 2 teenage girls was referred to him. YB asked the girls to come and see him on their own,
for a tantric healing, and not to tell their mother.
Dr Ron's wife was very devoted to YB,
but finally as a professional psycho-therapist,
she had to choose for the well-being of her clients.
About the ethical boundaries for professionals
Today Yogi Bhajan would be in prison.
Yogi Bhajan used scientists as a cover up.
In 1986 Dr Ron was asked by the attorneys of Kate and Premka to do a psychological evaluation of them.
