He was previously better known when he was about 13 as "Guru Maharaj Ji". You might have also heard of his The Divine Light Mission alongside other cults such as the Unification Church, the Children of God, the Hare Krishnas, the Church of Scientology, and the People's Temple Unfortunately the wikipedia entry on Prem and Divine Light Mission has been hijacked and controlled by a cult member who is also a high level Wiki administrator.
