As a passionate motorcycle enthusiast, I once had the opportunity to give Jaggi a bike ride at the Tennessee Ashram. He was thrilled. It was his first time experiencing that kind of American motorcycle. After that, I began leaving my bike at the ashram for him whenever he visited.
One time, when Jaggi arrived at the ashram, my bike wasn’t there because it had broken down. He mentioned it multiple times in his discourse, clearly missing it. Feeling guilty, I immediately repaired it and left it at the ashram for his use.
In 2017, Senthil Kumar, who was overseeing the Isha Ashram in McMinnville, TN, asked me for my BMW 2013 R 1200GS for a motorcyclist interview Jaggi was preparing for. He used the bike for a couple of weeks, but the interview was ultimately canceled.
Around this time, Jaggi started weaving exaggerated stories about his bike-riding experiences, BMWs, and other motorcycles in his book. He also began giving me significant attention, drawing me into his inner circle.
In 2017, Jaggi launched Rally for Rivers in India, parading in a Mercedes-Benz GL450, while I, like many others, poured in thousands of dollars, trusting it would help revive India’s dying rivers. But as time passed, the deception became clear—there was no real effort, no results, just empty promises wrapped in grand spectacle. It was all a sham.
Later, in May or June 2019, I airlifted a brand-new 2018 Honda VFR 1200 DCT from the USA to India for Cauvery Calling, as Jaggi had specifically requested that model.
However, he was afraid of falling or having an accident, so another person and I followed closely behind him throughout the rally. Jaggi then expressed a desire to experience a German motorcycle. So, in 2019, we gifted him a brand-new MV Agusta Turismo Veloce 800cc for the Diwali festival. The following year, in 2020, I gave him another new motorcycle, a BMW S 1000 XR, but after riding it, he dismissed it as “no good.”
Jaggi also introduced me to a CPA who was involved in illegal activities, including tax fraud, and claimed that this person was willing to liaise with authorities like the FBI if needed.
In September 2020, Senthil Kumar verbally abused me with vulgar language for failing to provide additional accessories for Jaggi’s motorcycle—such as a trailer, spare tires, puncture repair tools, toolboxes, and covers. Fearful of the consequences, I quickly purchased the necessary items and even rented a trailer for two weeks.
In the end, I gifted him five motorcycles—a colossal waste of my hard-earned money, thrown away on deception and empty grandeur. In total, I had gifted 5 Motorcycles to him. A colossal waste of my hard-earned money, thrown away on deception and empty grandeur.
