Sathya Sai Baba judges others as “zeroes” and always implies that, by contrast, he is a hero. He claims his actions must precede words, and not deviate from them.
But he continually fails to measure up to this himself, as anyone who dares think a genuinely independent thought about him can discover. For example, his 2003 Guru Purnima discourse, as edited down to make it less swanky in Sanathana Sarathi (August 2003, p. 229):-
“People are heroes in speech but zeroes in action. Today the world is being duped by such people. Those who have true love in their heart will not indulge in tall talk. They demonstrate their love in action. Today people speak a lot without translating their speech into action. Such people verily are thieves. They demonstrate their love in action. Today people speak a lot without translating their speech into action. Such people verily are thieves“
Sathya Sai Baba makes himself the ultimate hero in speech after speech. His own personal actions are observable, walking about, putting his hand on things and people. He does nothing one could really call hard work, he rather goes around accepting adulation. He has for decades not had to lift a finger to do or provide anything for himself.
“Today the world is being duped by such people” Comment: Faking “materialisations” of vibuthi through sleight of hand, 2nd of cheap trinkets (claimed to be valuable) and imported watches etc. etc. is what Sathya Sai Baba does, and gets huge donations from those he has duped into believing he and his “miracles” are holy and pure. He lies “until he is blue in the face” and covers up murders and other abuses of which he is accused as documented in these blogs and on other websites.
“Those who have true love in their heart will not indulge in tall talk.” He is the tallest talker ever known, literally! (See here) He has also boasted that no one anywhere is doing even one thousandth of the work he does (Xmas 2000) which is most patently? His constant gushing self-praise is spread on thick in his writings and discourses. He sees himself as the apostle of Infinite Love – and expounds this on every occasion – yet his supposed “loving actions’ have been described by many young men on the Internet and in TV interviews.
How many hundreds of millions of words has Sathya Sai Baba poured forth… shelves buckle under books containing only a fraction of his discourses, and even they are but excerpts… while his followers do over 99% of all the actions he claims to his sole credit. That is the true account of his words and actions.
“Such people verily are thieves” Those who collect donations under false pretenses, using sleight of hand, pretend to create and give away genuine diamonds (when donations will be given in return) and many other such deceits are the thieves.
Then there is the continual ‘Me, Me, Me’ in all Sathya Sai Baba ‘s discourses. Just look and see in any volume… yet he tells us he is selfless, needs no praise and that speaking of one’s good deeds makes them as if valueless.
That anyone cannot see this deceit would be incredible, but for the tremendous, subtle self-induced brain-washing that followers undertake without realising it.
