It's not that simple. Indian societies are ancient and have deep flaws. Usually involving social division, superstition, oppression of some kind or the other. In such situations Spiritual gurus saying the right thing in a sincere manner manage to build a large following over a period of years. The need for such "therapists" is real and cuts across income levels. Eventually though as the guru's following explodes, big money comes into play, and money corrupts so you end up with the gurus or their followers exploiting their situations for profit or worse.
