  • Keep its hard to tell exactly how notable this person/organization is from their website, but they do have numerous tv broadcasts (though probably local cable access channels), and some coverage in media. I have added (very poorly formatted, im not in the mood right now to do better layout, sorry) some external links to help people determine notability. I do believe she is a genuine saintly person with a significant international following. she seems to have been mentioned in a number of books. i dont see any info on where they are located or how large their ashram is, if they have one in fact. I would say keep pending better refs, and of course a rewrite or reduction to a stub article.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 05:12, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete There are simply no sources besides her own associates and promotional ads in the newspapers, anyone can do those broadcasts and international following is not a measure. (User) Mb (Talk) 12:39, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
well, unfortunately, i have to agree, despite my argument above. if no one who is more familiar with the subject can provide sources beyond the subjects primary sources, i would have to agree with deletion, even though i strongly suspect the subject is in fact notable within her field of influence (hindu spirituality, etc). i couldnt find enough sources myself. i will not canvass this, per WP conventions. of course, considering the content here is unsourced, it could be easily recreated from scratch if found to be notable.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 03:59, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I lean towards keeping articles which likely have sources in South Asian books not accessible to the majority of Wiki editors. Shii (tock) 18:40, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
If there are sources, post them here, othewise your reason does not contribute towards the consensus - verifability is the basis and independent good reliable sources is the key for notability. Wikidas© 22:04, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
