Dr Michael Nobel. Portrayed in the New York Times as an imposter and
'black sheep' of the Nobel family, he has been repudiated by the
Nobel Institute. Sathya Sai Baba and his officials, like Dr G.
Venkataraman, have made serious errors in public. As well as being
deputy chairman of the international Sathya Sai Organization,
Venkataraman is head of Sai Global Harmony, which beams its
propaganda to many countries in the world via the company of which
Nobel is a director - WorldSpace International Satellite Radio
Service.
Note: On behalf of
our networked group of former followers of Sathya Sai Baba, I wrote
to Dr Geir Lundestad, then Director of the
Nobel Institute. In our exchange of emails made it clear
that the information portrayed by Sathya Sai Baba and his leaders
was at complete variance with the facts.

"News of the Obama receipt of the Prize stirs memories of
those involved in submissions contra Sathya Sai Baba to the
Nobel Institute a decade ago. They cannot but be reminded of
the resounding failure of Sathya Sai Baba-disposed forces
within the Indian government to nominate the guru for this
same prize".

"The strange notion of quite how tasteful it was that ‘God’
should receive such an earth-bound award was remote from the
consideration of excited devotees round the world. Sathya
Sai Baba and his officials badly misrepresented the status
of Dr Michael Nobel, a major player in WorldSpace
International Satellite Radio Service, which broadcasts
Sathya Sai Baba propaganda (Sai Global Harmony) to many
countries in the world".
