Buildings like these abound around Sathy Sai Baba of Puttaparthi, Andhra Pradesh, South India.
This is a museum, supposedly a multi-Faith tribute. But typical of his many opulent buildings, it actually extols him to the utmost heights
But now – for some healthy competition?
The lavish but rocky “Sai Revolution”
Former Sai Baba devotees worldwide are ready, as indeed many times before over several years, to submit our credentials and findings to bona fide independent third party adjudicators.
In an attempt to obtain proper investigation of the allegations against Sathya Sai Baba and his powerful and influential worldwide organization, we have closely cooperated with major world media and other reputed agencies and institutions. He and the entity he calls the “Divine” instrument for bringing about the greatest spiritual revolution the world has ever seen, the Sathya Sai Organization, have not.
International billions flow to Sai Baba
In August 16, 2003. the Rediff news agency reported:
“The largest recipient of foreign contribution was Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust — Rs 88.18 crore (Rs 881.8 million)”
Now, that would buy Sai Baba a monument or two, would it not?
As scholars from some of the world’s leading unversities and some of the world’s top journalists have repeatedly discovered, the Sathya Sai Organization is an evasive, authoritarian, tight-lipped monolith. We have brought to the attenion of highly-qualified third party experts in sexual abuse the cases of those who have come to us with their heartrending accounts of having been sexually abused by Sai Baba, and in some cases by those close to him. The Sathya Sai Organization has not. The notion of duty-of-care is alien to it. Far too much is at stake – in fact, billions of dollars – for it to even dare to contemplate the thought. Although we know too well that he has formidable protection from successive Indian governments, both State and Central, some of our personnel in India have sacrificially put themselves at considerable risk in raising the allegations with Indian authorities. The Sathya Sai Organization arms itself by aligning itself with the power-brokers of trade, finance and politics, both Indian and foreign, who ensure that the vast funds that pour to its Sathya Sai Central Trust are not affected. One of the foremost officials in the British Foreign and Commonwealth Office asked Hon. Tony Colman, former MP for Putney to back off in regard to Sai Baba because the Blair government did not want to rock the boat with India. It is, therefore, a pity that the BBC’s intention to engage a financial investigator Patrick Masters was not able to occur in the several months of intense research for ‘The Secret Swami’. But then there were so many components that vied for attention. Again, always with the current consent of those involved, the details of such activities are ready to be shared with bona fide, notably trustworthy experts.
BBC questions. Is evicted from Puttaparthi
The producer of the BBC documentary ‘The Secret Swami’, Eamon Hardy, has said that, although at first the Puttaparthi ashram authorities gave a rare if not unique permission to film at the ashram, the moment he asked the Ashram authority about the worldwide allegations against Sai Baba, the team was summarily evicted from Puttaparthi. We find that one media or government or institutional establishment after another which has been ready, and indeed at very senior levels, to credit that our accounts merit investigation has been visited by top Sai Baba people and threatened with litigation. One major Canadian newspaper was holed up for hours trying to keep the advertizing account of one of its big advertizers, prominent in the Sai Organization. In an Australian newspaper, the award-winning journalist had to suffer the pulling of his tremendously well-researched story, on which he had worked so hard for weeks, and which would have occupied some of the front page. It was pulled only hours before publication because of orders ‘from on high’.
Sai Baba agenda – to rule the world before 2022
In short, the Sathya Sai Organization is a cult. With serious lack of disclosure of its true agendas, and under considerable false pretenses, it would convince the public in some 150 countries of its respectability. It cultivates affilations with mainstream government and political leaders and civic and religious organizations. In fact, the leaders and many other Sai Baba followers believe they the essential tool in Sai Baba’s hands to have transform the world under his guidance before he dies in 2022.
Sai Baba issues licence to kill – criticism
Recent history shows us that large-scale institutionalized sexual abuse and other corruptions tend to be exposed eventually. Officials of the Sathya Sai Organization would do well to survey the barely calculable financial and moral cataclysm in the Roman Catholic church at:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
Roman_Catholic_sex_abuse_cases
Their reading may indeed be far ahead of this and, if so, they will be shaking in their shoes. It would be little wonder, then, that Sai Baba has now stated, despite all his former words about not responding to the critical words of adversaries:
“The time has come when proper action has to be taken to dissuade these people from resorting to such false propaganda”:
http://barrypittard.wordpress.com/2007/03/03/sai-baba-will-act-against-his-dissenters/
What a licence he thereby gives for the unleashing of the hitherto often suppressed anger among his millions of devotees at those of us who have sought to speak the truth about him. His word is their command, and lends itself to the psychology used by various manipulators of mass revenge down the ages. How very spiritual!
