Sri Satya Sai Baba, Bhagavan or pretender?

Dr. MPS RAMANI Ph.D.[Tech] Sir/madam! You are correct. We can see him as a good human being, who served the needy people, by providing drinking water and providing medical help to the people. Though he is not BHAGAVAN, his service can be appriciated.  

Newspapers also narrated the various miracles performed by the Baba

---   miracles can not be done,

it is impossible, 

these are only mazic.

i personally feel that - he was cheated public.

he started from zero, ie ,  he came from a very poor family, how so much wealth accumulated to him?

in this way, a raja, konimojhi, all are saints and miracleist.

Alas, but Sai Baba had to die like other mortals, his being Bhagavan, notwithstanding.

---   this  is the ultimate truth.

Mr. Zeeshan is known only to a few members of LCI, his estranged wife and his former  in-laws. But almost the whole world knows Sai Baba. Once I was coming from Geneva to Mumbai. As it was an Air India flight, it first went to Delhi to pay their obeisance to their masters there. Many Air India flights were coming that way. As the number of passengers from Delhi to Mumbai was less, they bunched together passengers from many flights, into one or two from Delhi. Thus I had to change my flight. In the flight to Mumbai there were passengers from other flights. The way they were conversing with each other in a language not known to me, I could gather that they were a group. I just asked the lady sitting next to me, in English of course, whether they were tourists going to see Mumbai. She replied “No, no, no we are going to Bangalore for an audience with God”. I was taken aback to know that in my country God was there in flesh and blood, so to say. Then she elaborated that all of them were coming all the way from Rome to see Satya Sai Baba. Until the flight landed in Mumbai I had to listen to her lecture on Sai Baba, his miracles and how all of them were visiting him every year. Another European author has written a book exclusively on his various miracle performances.

Mr. Arup has put Raja and Kanimozhi also in the same group. Credit is given to the media for all the travails of the two. But the same media without any exception were in praise of the Baba. They even discredited intellectuals like Prof: Abraham Kovoor and Prof: Narasimhaia, who questioned Baba.

So someone has outsmarted me. But still I shall not lose hope. Mr. Zeeshan, is it possible to get more details?

Sir, I may be a little Harsh here, but whenever I see or read about such GODHEADS,

a saying of Dr. Abraham Kovoor comes to my mind....

"He who Does not allow his miracles to be investigated is a crook,

He who does not have the courage to investigate a miracle is a gullible, and

He who is prepared to behave without verification is a fool."

How Right is Dr. Abraham Kovoor. In his International bestseller "BEGONE GODMEN"  & "GOD DEMONS & EVIL SPIRITS" he gave his part of verification about those Miracle workers. Any street Magicians (EVEN ME) can perform all those Miracle feats performed by those GODHEADS.

No GODHEADS succeded ever in DUPLICATING a CURRENCY NOTE sealed up in an envolope, when challenged in a stage. For it's an object that DOESN'T comes out in Duplicate.

I also remember seeing Sai Baba stealing the Shiva Lingam from under his robe in one of his "Miracle" stunts. A Tv camera caught the act redhanded. It was displayed in lots of TV channels years back, but still "TRUE BELIEVERS" still belives it to be Sai's Miracle.

Dr Ramani, thanks for sharing your views on satya Sai baba. some people really need to believe in miracles and that god is actually a flesh-and-blood person. I think they're incapable of abstract thinking and rational thinking. Recently a big cult in US announced the end of the world...well it hasn't ended yet. 

Arup I agree with most of your views...when a person starts to perform magic tricks and bizarre stunts, I lose all respect for that person.

Mr. Zeeshan:  The Trusties of the multicrore Satya Sai Trust, which I think includes Justice Bhagawati as a Trustee, believed that Sai Baba-II was Bhagawan and that his prophesies would come true.  Now you say Sai Baba-III has descended on Earth. Will now the Trustees entrust the Trust to Sai Baba III? I have no information that the Trusties of Sai Baba-I recognized Sai Baba-II. If the Trusties of Sai Baba II are honest, they should request Sai Baba III to take over the Empire.

 I am unable to understand one thing. Here almost everyone believes that Sai Baba-II was more or less fake. On the other hand the media was all praise only for Sai Baba. There was not a single criticism.

haha....well said dipangkar!!

Today there is a report that in the sanctum sanctorum of late Satya Sai Baba, Rs.11.5 crore in cash and 98 Kg of gold were found. I thought that the Baba, though may have left back the useless body, would have taken with him the valuables. Or has he left them for Sai Baba – III? Was all that property declared during the life time of the Bhagawan? Did income tax department ever enquire into his wealth? Will income-tax department take cognizance of this now and take action? Which section in the Income Tax Act says that the Babas are above it?

 There was a revenue officer by name Ramdas during the regime of Emperor Shah Jehan. He was in the same Andhra Pradesh as the late Sai Baba.  He was an ardent devotee of Lord Rama. His duty was to collect taxes from people and credit them into the treasury. But instead he used the collections to construct a temple for Lord Rama. When the misappropriation was found out he was prosecuted and jailed for 12 years. Lord Rama did not come to his rescue. What is the moral here? “There is no Lord Rama or God by any other name” or “Pay your taxes first. After that only use the taxed income for any temple building or charity” Will members tell me which one is correct?
