Disowned guru meets press

Guru Maharaj Ji,left, talks to members of the press Sunday in Lucknow during his first public appearance since his dismissal as leader of the Divine Light Mission a couple of weeks ago. Shri Mata Ji, Holy Mother of the church and natural mother of the young guru, disowned her youngest son, accusing him of becoming a playboy and unfit to head the church since his move to the United States. She named another son to become new guru of the movement. (AP Wirephoto)
