More and yet more deceptions by Sathya Sai Baba   Date: July 21th, 2007 By: Exbaba Admin Self Deception for Sai Baba Devotees become psychically and otherwise dependent on Sathya Sai Baba, despite knowing his involvements in deceit and cover-ups of crimes. Now India is getting another devotee as President - Pratibha Patil - who seems to be stamped with the same kind of corruption as Sai Baba. 'Miracle Cures' by Sai Baba? Despite many reports of 'miracle cures' by Sai Baba, and of the same by thousands of other alleging 'healers', none have so far been recognised as genuine by top medical science in any developed country. This does not prove that they cannot occur, but their real causes may be mainly psychological. Sathya Sai Baba narcissism This self-proclaimed Deity of deities at whose feet he claims all prayers to whatever God end up exhibits all the symptoms of classic narcissism, a psychopathological condition common to various world leaders who have dominated their environments and lost touch with ordinary humanity, considering themselves invulnerable and far superior to others. Sai Baba demonstrated ignorance The Self-Announced All-powerful Divinity shows a remarkably shallow view of science and famous scientists, of their physics and evolutionism, for one who also claims All-knowingness. He also misquotes famous person and puts (sometimes wholly absurd) words into the mouths of some historical religious figures. His claim that divine bliss is the highest reality apparently implies an equal amount of divine ignorance. Sathya Sai's good works Though there are many good works by followers of Sathya Sai Baba, they are done in the name of a person who - bearing the name 'Truth' (i.e. Sathya) is still a proven liar, fraudulent 'materialiser' and stands very widely and credibly accused of sex abuses and complicity in murder cover-up. Sai Baba's miracles In Newsweek, Sathya Sai Baba was slammed as a mere 'stage magician'by author Sam Harris. The main testimony about Sai Baba faking 'materialisations'comes from devotees - many of whom lost all faith in him as a result. Others remained believing this to be 'a test of faith'! Sai Baba's fame and name Claiming that name and fame should never be striven for, Sai Baba strives for them continually, letting the organization which bears his name promote him to the skies - on scores of websites and at meetings in many very costly public venues, as well at least a thousand centres around the world. Sai Propaganda Floods Onwards The excellent work done by follower of Sathya Sai Baba is their achievement, not primarily that of Sathya Sai Baba, who nonetheless takes credit for all of it and tells them that he is 'the Doer' of everything, which many of them somehow believe. Visitors to Sai Baba ashrams - parts (1) and (2) Only persons who are free of the necessary self-censorship of devotees can tell it how it is at Sathya Sai Babas's ashrams. Completely different to the overall impression given by hundreds of books and videos! Some useful information is here given to those who may consider visiting Prashanthi Nilyayam or Brindavan, Whitefield. Visitors to Sai Baba ashrams - part (3) Not all is as it appears in and around Sathya Sai Baba's ashrams - there are brothels in Puttaparthi which aim to serve devotees and reportedly also ashram staff, one even run by a VIP follower. Vijay Prabhu was once the security chief at Prashanthi Nilayam - the reasons for his involvement in the 1993 intrusion resulting in murders seem to be quite different to those alleged by Sai officials. Visitors to Sai Baba ashrams - part (4) The security arrangements with metal detectors, close body searches (men and women) and no allowance of any objects when getting close to Sai Baba speak of great paranoia! For the protection of the devotees, it is claimed! Like saying the US President's secret service is for the protection of the crowd!
