Submit your story

Note: It is now possible to submit your story completely anonymously, without revealing your email address. Instructions below.

We welcome both anonymous and signed submissions. Write a paragraph or a few pages. Describe your experiences in Siddha Yoga, the effects it had on you, and any insights from this. Sharing your story may well help others in a similar situation and also be healing for you.

We cannot promise that every submission will appear—we only post those which meet the stated purpose of this site: a public service website, an archive of personal stories and media articles critical of Siddha Yoga, Swami Muktananda (“Baba”), or Swami Chidvilasananda, (“Gurumayi”).

If you would like to be identified, you may email your submission to the site owner, Dan Shaw, at danielshawlcsw@gmail.com. 

To remain completely anonymous, you may submit your story to Dan Shaw, who will not see your email address, using the form below. PLEASE NOTE: DO NOT sign in to Google, as that would reveal your email address.
