Controversial seer Nithyanada says he stopped sunrise for 40 minutes in Bidadi

Bengaluru: “Today I was late for the flag-hoisting. So I told the sun not to come out till I was done with the flag hoisting. And the sun came out 40 minutes late. It was not because of clouds, but because I told the sun,” said Bidadi Nithyananda Ashram's seer Nithyananda, speaking to his devotees in Bidadi, Bengaluru. Earlier, Nithyananda was accused of indulging in sexual activities inside the Ashram, but he has refuted the claims. Prior to this, his videos of statements like “e=mc2 because intensity of a non-vegetarian crooked brain which has seen only ups and downs” and “there are millions of planets where life exists and they are regularly visiting the earth for educational tours” etc had gone viral.
