A learned fool would know better than this obscure and empty twaddle arising from speculative religious fantasies made by Sathya Sai Baba, the Creator of the Universe (or so he promotes himself!):-
“People feel this atomic power is separate from man and they have kept it aside in a scientific way. However, the atomic process is very sacred. Yet, people feel that it is lowly. Kaanaada said that it would be possible to realise God through this process.”
Comment: The atomic process is very sacred? How so… should it be worshipped? Should the Hadron Collider be seen as a temple for devotees?
“Till today no one has understood the sacred power of the atom. People think that the atom is only a phenomenon without a life force. The power of life that created this entire world is also in the atom. Hence, God is the embodiment of the microcosm and the macrocosm. Therefore, every human being should try to recognize the secret of the world and of the creation of man, and recognize what is his duty and act accordingly.”
Comment: Understanding the atom and atomic power will hardly help anyone recognise their duty or how to act.
“What man should recognize is the form of the atom. If the atom is understood, man will be one who understands everything. The atom only is God. That only is true humanness. That only is the life principle. The life principle within the atom is moving about throughout the world.”
Comment: Then according to this statement, scientists who know the form of the atom must be totally illumined. The form is the physical manifestation (according to Sai Baba’s own terminology whereby his body is just the ‘form’ of God). Strangely, physical scientists worldwide do not identify the atom and certainly not with Sathya Sai Baba. (with the possible exception of retired physicist G. Venkataraman, besotted devotee and chief publicist for Sai Baba)
“However, how should one take hold of it? The process of the microcosm has to be undertaken. This is what Kaanaada said. He said that when this (the process of the microcosm) is followed, it would be possible for us to receive (realise) the principle of Divinity.”
Comment: Get a hold and undertake the “process of the microcosm” whatever in spiritual bedlam that may be! Lowly Kaanada said it, so it must be universally true… ??
“Look — an atom is going there. We may go around it. If we wait around for it and if we proceed (to follow
it) with concentration, it will be caught by us. We may catch hold of any amount of atoms every moment. You just held so many. If they are let loose, they go (spread) wherever you look (all over). The sound of OM and the sound of an atom are as small as the atom. The nature of the mind is also dependent on this.”
Comment: He sees no difference between atoms and molecules and solid and fluid states. His recipe for the process of the microcosm is even more unclear.. it is approaching the barking and the raving (which must also be the sound of OM? How small is the sound of ‘Om’ – a micron, a nanometer?)
“In the evening when I was giving the Valedictory Address, I didn’t even know what I was saying.”
Comment: You can say that again, Sathya Sai Baba. That is a clearly stated fact I would not contest!
