 * Changing to Neutral - After reviewing the article sources, and context, I think the topic could be notable. Shadowjams (talk) 18:58, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
 *  Weak keep - Subject's status as an initiating guru would seem to be notable, but lack of evidence of external notability weakens my vote. Additional sourcing removes weakness of support. John Carter (talk) 18:18, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Note - I have added a couple of external RS. Wikid as&#169; 06:19, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep. The provided references provide a sufficient case for notability, in my opinion.--Talain (talk) 05:39, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
