Kermit
editIn It's Here Now (Are you?), he claims that Kermit is his first name, with Michael being his middle name. I don't think that's a joke, so I'm changing the article. It's not vandalism! (-: I think the internet knows his first name is kermit, too. — vijay (Talk) 14:36, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

No criticism?
editI'm not the right person to write that, having only heard of the guy through Jeff Brown's book "Grounded Spirituality" and the trailer of "Karmaggedon", but it looks like some of his practices are at least controversial. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2003:CB:BBC8:3B00:6DF3:D641:2BF2:F791 (talk) 08:27, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

What happened to his wife Kali / Sharada Devi?
editShe has just disappeared with no news stories stating what happened to her. All her images are gone from all his social media sites. I want the dirt. Anyone know? — Preceding unsigned comment added by KonchogChonye (talk • contribs) 04:52, 11 January 2020 (UTC)
- Hmm, yes, User:Moksha Now seems to have removed the well-cited personal life info and replaced it with less reliable recent information. Skyerise (talk) 17:21, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
Claim of common law marriage
editI've removed Kermit's self-serving claim of common-law marriage. This 'marriage' supposedly occurred in California, which does not recognize common-law marriage. But further, he was still married to Bhavani until her death in 1983 - I don't know of any state that recognizes a common-law marriage when one of the partners is still legally married to another spouse.

- I don't see why he is put in the category of bigamists. As far as this article states, he was married and had another relationship while married. To be a bigamist, you need to be married to two people at the same time. So I'll wait for feedback and take him out of the category if no-one objects. Totorotroll (talk) 19:59, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
- Oh yes, you're right. He only claimed to be a bigamist. The previous version of the article took him at his word for this, but as I've shown it wasn't true. I just neglected to take off the category. Skyerise (talk) 16:28, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
