Not to the indoctrinated premies, but that is a given.  I was a premie, and I didn't even consider the blaring contradictions, the obvious failure of propagation, nor Rawat's obvious, glaring flaws.  Premies are experts at dodge and avoid, to the point that many actually are not conscious they even exist.

Other premies, however, do see them, and do distance themselves from Rawat and the organization, perhaps just keeping the belief system and going to the occasional program out of fear that he just might be the living God and one does not want to throw away the possibility.  I personally know one "premie" who thinks Rawat is an extremely flawed master, who is mostly a distraction from the practice of knowledge, and a total failure at propagation, but this guy feels he can't choose who the Perfect Master is, and is kind of stuck with him.  He is, as a result, mostly a crumudgen-type premie, disdainful of the premies, (particularly those who are active members of the personality cult around Rawat), keeping his involvement as minimal as possible, but a believer nonetheless.

But I think these contradictions are very important for those not in the cult, mostly the public, the "potentially interested person."  So, I think in the West, at least, Rawat is mostly just stuck with very unhappy people, who think this might give them some kind of a fix in their lives.  Those people might be willing to try anything, no matter how contradictory and and poorly presented it is.  I think that's about it.  Maybe also the spouses or children of premies, who get inolved like it's the family religion, but I don't see much else.

And that's mostly because Rawat really is an unattractive person and is mostly a poor speaker.  While the graphics on his websites might be to some degree glitsy, given how many, so much better, motivational speakers there are out there (who is that real estate guy, Robbins?), and charismatic religions, I just don't think Rawat will sell, particularly given the onerous process one has to go through to get properly indoctrinated before you can even "ask" for knowledge.  Nope, this is a loser proposition.

India is another story, but there Rawat isn't presenting the mixed message he is in the West, as there hs is still God, but even there, I suspect the numbers are way smaller than the cult implies.
