Nithyananda
Nithyananda is a controversial Indian guru and self-proclaimed spiritual leader who has faced serious legal accusations, including sexual assault. He is known for establishing the fictitious nation of Kailasa, which he claims to govern. Nithyananda has garnered attention for his attempts to create diplomatic ties with various countries, despite Kailasa not being recognized as a sovereign state by the international community. His activities have raised concerns and skepticism, particularly following reports of his organization's dealings with indigenous groups in Bolivia, which prompted the Bolivian government to publicly deny any diplomatic relations with his non-existent nation.
