"Politics, religion and pseudoscience
Vasudev's sociopolitical ideology aligns with that of Bharatiya Janata Party and Hindutva.[31][70][71][72][73] An article over The Wire noted him to play a vital role within the right wing ecosystem—sugarcoating an exclusionary brand of non-secular ethno-nationalistic politics with an universalist mystic mooring, and deliver the same in a tranquil and captivating manner before an urban audience, whilst operating from within the realms of apolitical spiritual spaces.[70]

He alleges of ancient Europe being filled with temple, urges for a total ban on cow slaughter and deems the Muslim Rule in India as centuries of oppressive occupation, which were far worse than the British Raj.[31] Vasudev has also spoken in favour of the 2019 Balakot airstrike, introduction of a comprehensive GST and Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019 whilst deeming the Thoothukudi protests as lynching of corporate industries.[31][74][75][76] In an interview before Times Now, Vasudev had blamed the left liberal sections of the society for facilitating militancy in Kashmir and lamented about how Kanhaiya Kumar and Umar Khalid (of JNU sedition row fame) were hogging the public limelight instead of being behind the bars.[77][70] His understanding of realpolitik and history, as displayed in delivering these stances has been widely criticized.[70][75][31]
Vasudev has aso been noted as a longstanding purveyor of pseudo-scientific information across a spectrum of topics, aligning to a politico-religious model.[78][79][31]
In 2015, he propagated long-debunked superstitions in his blog, about food turning poisonous and human health being adversely effected during lunar eclipse; the post has been since been broadcast across multiple mainstream media, for years; over a public discourse, he used a rudraksha garland as an 'energy' measuring device to prove his claim.[31][80][81] AltNews has documented Vasudev to have perpetuated numerous myths around clinical depression; he had also protested against a potential prohibition on the use of mercury for Indian traditional medicines, despite its extreme toxicity.[82][83] His views on the Higgs boson and alleged benefits for the Vibhuti have been refuted by the rationalists and have been labelled as anti-scientific.[84][85] In a program at IIT Madras, he propounded debunked theories about water memory.[86]

Shashi Tharoor has noted about how the ideology of Hindutva has encouraged gurus to blend religion and pseudo-spirituality into a lucrative business to promote irrationality.[87] Another piece over Scroll.in, on similar veins, documented Vasudev's casting of religious politics into a meta-scientific narrative and popularization of a Hindutva-centered revisionist history featuring atavistic remembrances of a golden Hindu past; among others it consisted fundamental mis-interpretation of Darwin's work followed by appropriating it as something that has been long discovered in India, advocating for Hindu rituals after death since it spared a slow death (as allegedly justifiable from the continued growth of nail and hairs) and claiming of Hindu Tantric 'scientists' being capable of resurrecting the dead.[31] Babu Gogineni deemed of him as a spiritualist conman, who built a huge business empire by resorting to a mixture of pseudo-science with science, rather than old age magic tricks which were increasingly getting debunked."
