The Wikipedia article on Eckankar, noting the organization does not publish membership figures. It relays a general estimate of around 50,000 followers in the 1990s and Len Woods' 2008 Handbook of World Religions, whose conservative estimate also puts the number of adherents at fifty thousand, both external estimates rather than figures Eckankar itself has confirmed.
Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier3
Tertiary reference compiling two named external estimates, a general 1990s estimate and Len Woods' 2008 Handbook of World Religions figure, since Eckankar itself declines to publish membership numbers; the same one-remove standing already given to other Wikipedia compilations on this axis. Citation
