What do you do with a drunken
sailor? Where does one go, what does one do when the guru has betrayed
his devotees?
A voice crying in a lonely desert, a whistle blower against all odds, a
forthright Trojan for Truth--and he couldn't get anyone to give him
serious consideration--Tal Brooke is the first of several heroes to
follow. Against the scorn of millions of Baba devotees, Tal told us the
truth beginning with LORD OF THE AIR. BUT WHO PAID ANY
ATTENTION TO WHAT HE WAS DECLARING?! This first book was followed up
with the millennium edition, AVATAR OF NIGHT and now
thousands are not only listening--they're doing something about it. When
the history of this Sai Saga is written, Tal Brooke will take center
stage. We former devotees are fortunate that he was such a titanic
trailblazer, and is still in the arena of brave souls. He stood alone
for many years. He is no longer alone.
Another brave
soul, one that everyone likes immensely, at great financial and social
cost to him, is Conny Larsson. As much as he "campaigned" for SSB, he
turned to be "Terrible Tiger" in his untiring efforts to educate
others. He will be at center stage with Tal.
There are a number of recent heroes, and the first one to
venture out, besides David and Faye Bailey and those listed in THE
FINDINGS, in my experience, was Glen Meloy. When, after nearly 30
years of faithful following SSB he discovered the truth of the
molestations, the pedophilia, the murders of 1993 and subsequent ones,
and the truth behind the suicides and near suicides. Like a modern day
Hercules he led the exposure of the fraud god we all believed to be
the Kalki Avatar. "Gypsy" had come forward early on (Spring, 2000)
but, for whatever reasons, backed off. "Neptune" also stands alone in
forthright candidness in mailing letters to all presidents of Centers
in USA. Barry Pittard from Australia has been keeping the pressure on
world wide. He has written more words to more governmental
functionaries, politicians, agencies, news media, former devotees and
devotees, and many other types than anyone else. He has been a thorn
in the side of many high-ranking SSO office bearers. When Glen had
given all he had, and decided to take a breather, Barry picked up the
ball and is still running with it. Other heroes opened up web sites
and welcomed all reports of wrong doing within the Sai Organization,
too many to mention here--and I know that I do not know all of them.
Shirley Pike, former president of the North Central Region, has
carried on her own fight in a low profile--as many others have done.
Special recognition must be accorded to the two scholarly deans--both
of whom have my deepest admiration--Robert Priddy and Brian Steel.
Their meticulous and brilliant research into all that SSB has said,
pointing out hundreds of anomalies, and outright factual errors, has
put the final touches and nails in the coffin of this most insidious
cult. Their efforts will be studied by thousands in the years to come.
Lionel Fernandez in Mexico and Serguei Badaev in Moscow deserve
special recognition for their continuing efforts to expose the pseudo
guru. There are many others who deserve recognition--heroes all. Most
former devotees would just rather rebuild their lives, and that is
OK--they are free of this farce. And, of course, those very brave
souls who were molested and came forward with depositions, and their
willingness to testify when the opportunity presents itself.
What about the heels? Ha!, there are many, but they are more
than heels. They are collaborators, aiders and abettors of
many criminal acts--and they will pay the consequences. The
chief heel, and criminal co-conspirator (and I pray that
this sob tries to initiate court action) here in USA is Dr.
Michael Goldstein. This skunk had the audacity to feign
compassion and caring to several parents whose sons had been
sexually molested by SSB. I hope to see him in prison. The
top office bearer is Indulal Shah, whose loyalty to SSB and
his crimes will see he and his cohorts in everlasting shame.
To say that Bongiovanni (Bon Anza) is merely a Baba
apologist and spin doctor would be an understatement. When I
crossed swords with him he was squeamishly pitiful. He is
skunk # 2 here in USA, this self-appointed human firewall. I
am sure that other former devotees can name quite a few (as
Barry has over the past two years), so I am only naming
those that I know personally. They typify the others--like
Jagadeesan, et al. These Guru Gestapo Groupies will have a
rude awakening. To be continued.
