Sathya Sai Baba Critic Serguei Badaev: An Incisive Voice of Conscience From Russia   At 'Call For media Investigation of Sathya Sai Baba' - http://barrypittard.wordpress.com - see the article: Sathya Sai Baba Critic Serguei Badaev: An Incisive Voice of Conscience From Russia Posted by Barry Pittard on November 2, 2009  QUOTES "Serguei Badaev was ex-President of the Sathya Sai Organization’s Moscow centre, ex-deputy National Coordinator, and National Sathya Sai Education in Human Values (SSEHV) Coordinator for Russia. The Moscow centre wrote a letter (see below) to Indulal Shah (then head of the Sathya Sai Baba Organization) and 7th World Conference seeking an explanation from their teacher for the spiritual meaning of the up-rush of criticism on the Internet about him and his mission" "Serguei Badaev is an incisive writer with a professional background (the physical sciences), whose writings critical of the Sai sect – no less than those of others who have raised critical questions – receive no answer from Sathya Sai Baba and his officials. Nor do they explain how those with years of loving, sacrificial  and dedicated service to the Sathya Sai Baba organization (what to speak in their own professions and wider communities) should, supposedly and practically overnight, become demons, naysayers, and defamers.
