The Dilemma in Worshipping a God of Megalomaniac Claims

Sathya Sai Baba posing as Narayana on the Serpent Bed

It has in the last decade become increasingly damaging for anyone’s reputation in the world as a person of common sense or educated intelligence to be further associated with Sathya Sai Baba in any way other than critically. The exception to this is those who are based within certain religious Indian communities. In India, PMs and Presidents, Ministers, Supreme and High Court judges, magistrates plus the Indian armed services and even many police are followers of this power-broking moneybags who claims to be The Deity of All Deities and ‘The Creator of the Universe Incarnate’ etc. etc., at whose feet all prayers to any God whatever eventually arrive! Believe it or not, but all devout followers are required to believe it fully, and they do!

It is hardly therefore at all surprising that the vast majority of those disaffected from Sai Baba – especially those who must live in India – try to keep a low profile or stay anonymous. Most persons who contact the exposé through its various websites and e-mail addresses – and there are many hundreds of them – do not wish their names to be posted. A mass of extremely revealing materials are not publicly referenced, including accounts by close students (known as “form boys” and “chics”) of Sai Baba’s sexual abuses and major fraudulence (especially his ‘materializations of ‘holy ash’ and trinkets he gives away in the hope of financial and other large donations in return). These cases are investigated carefully for genuineness without giving away their identities, recorded and then archived for possible future reference, within the bounds of strict permission obtained from primary informants, when the time may be ripe. A large majority of those who have contacted exposé workers say they want to forget and ‘move on’ with their lives. Meanwhile, many of those who have reported their shocking experience or their parents and supporters have been ostracised totally by devotees and Sai officials who for years called them ‘brothers and sisters’ and knew the integrity of those in many countries who have, for reasons of moral principle, left the Sathya Sai Organisation.
