Wow! that was a pretty harsh statement. I think a lot of people liked Tarak and I don't think that has anything to do with the fact that he may have been more involved in the group than others. Many chose to have more distance from all the group activities and so on.
I think we are all upset, but I don't think it is a good idea to lash out in anger at those who made the center their priority while they were in it.
I lot of people were fooled by CKG - but we all feel badly about doing work for him, also those who did a lot of work.
I think that beating up on those who did more work and were more involved post center is a little like sour grapes.
That is my point of view anyway.
The bottom line is the CKG really fooled a lot of people, making those who where more dedicated while in the center feel badly afterwards isn't going to help anyone! I don't remember Tarak rolling in any money or having his life made any easier than anyone else(by the oaf chinmoy)! It seems to me he was always working his ass off and supporting himself! So I don't know if this 'inner circle' comment makes any sense. geeez
