Here is a video about religion in India:
The interesting bit is that there is a team involved to show the quackery of the crowd preparation and the culminating religious "healing".
Sadly this is a Sisyphean task. I can pretty well guarantee you that the next time a "holy man" shows up in the village the "lessons" of this expose of showmanship and trickery will have been forgotten and the new guy will suitably impress the villages and pluck dollars from their pockets.
One really obvious fact: if this "god man" can create dollars out of nothing, why did he need to charge the family for her "healing". None in the crowd ever asked this fundamental question. Instead, they were credulous bumpkins, rubes ready for the milking.
