Self-styled godman Nityananda is back at his ashram on the outskirts of Bangalore. The swami is out on bail after scandalous sex videos put him in the dock.

Nityanada and his disciples have now planned what they call "spiritual soul cleansing of negativities', involving yoga and performing havan.

The court had released him on bail on the condition that he wouldn't teach or preach.

He was released on Saturday after spending 53 days in jail on rape and other criminal charges - a day after Karnataka High Court granted him bail.

Nityananda and his close aide Gopala Reddy alias Bhakta Nityananda, who also had been enlarged on bail, were released after they complied with conditions slapped for their release by the High Court on Friday.

Counsels for Nityananda submitted the required documents before District Magistrate Pushpavathi at her residence as Saturday being a government holiday on account of second Saturday.
