ok so my lazy ass decided to actually do a little research since this has become such a big fuss. I didnt think I was actually going to have to look anything but because my point was simply that I think there is more to it than Gil being a fake sadhu.
This is apparently very true because none of you actually went out of your way to look for anything that would imply he IS a real sadhu.
Well I did.
First I started on wikipedia and found this
"Feeling that the San Francisco musical scene was falling apart, he took off in 1969, going first to Amsterdam and then to India, settling in the hippie mecca of Goa. Here he discovered the sadhus, wandering holy men living off the forest and covering themselves with ash and drinking the elixir of the gods. Gil became himself a Sadhu, Baba Mangalanand, in the order of the Juna Akhara, under the Guru, Mahant Nirmalanand Saraswati Ji Maharaj."
The next obvious step was to search "Juna Akhara" in google and what do you know I immediately find a page on foreign sadhus and guess whos face popped up? "Mangalanand Giri, an initiate of the Juna Akhara, at the Kumbha Mela in 2001 at Allahabad.
A.k.a. Goagil."
haha jk but seriously no more of this fake baba stuff. he is one of the founders of the scene and is probably the only reason why we are here arguing anyways. He has my respect for that alone.

Funny, cos all those things you said about other people - "cannot accept she is not the only one in this world", "narrow minded", "hours of insulting" - from our point of view, these all apply to YOU. Can you see how this forum has been a mirror for all the things inside you that you don't like? For me, you have certainly been a mirror to my own impatience and need to be 'right', and you have helped me reaffirm changes I need to make in my own life. I would like to hear you say that you realise these things about yourself, and that you will try to learn from them and move on from the behaviour which has been so disruptive for this forum.
Yes, in fact this work better than my psiquitric therapy group.
Many of us here have a little totalitarian inside, just as Moki has discovered,
"The dedication to repetition — the search for nirvana in a single held tone or an endlessly cycling rhythm — is one of electronic music's noblest gestures."

a guy from India who has psy-trance record label...a guy from San Francisco who discover the spiritual world but in the same time is a dj, producer, lsd user...,etc etc...
we mix spirituality with drugs, technology, psychedelic music...
This is the global world!!!!!!!!!!!!! And the cental bank is proud of all of us...and we don't see it. We just enjoy life but we never think...Idiocracy in not the future...is the actual world
F...ING humans
Sorry but I'm sick of silly arguments...

and to Trippy Tripperson. I'm really sorry I put you on ignore and stopped giving you shitty unreleased tracks 3 years ago. I found you extremely annoying and could no longer deal with your nagging.
Hopefully Gil wont call me and talk shit to me for making him look so awful.
Quit hating it's bad for your health.

Goa Gil went up the hill to fetch a pail of water. Gil fell down and broke his crown and Gil came stumbling after

I remember seeing gil with a needle hanging out of his hand 20 yrs ago (yes he used to inject heroin) - the old Music House in Chapora.
How can so many people see a narc as a hero? Beggars belief! He's nothing more than a twat with grey dreadlocks and lice who occasionally wears robes he got from a PAID weekend at an Ashram! and pretty shit taste in music - he can't beatmatch to save his life - my 4yr old daughter can mix better than him!
He also has been known to grass up other foreigners in Goa to keep his 'immunity' from the cops there - recently his house was burgled - they stole his cow! shame there was not much else worth taking - some crap dat's maybe - they were looking for his stash (yes - u got it - ur hero does drugs)
Some fucking Saddhu! He's a complete wanker!
