Satya Sai Baba practical approach towards society is uncomparable and can be understood only by the poor who cannot afford to 3 lacs open heart surgery in public hospital . One must visit Super Speciality hospital located at puttaparthi to feel the feelings of Sai Baba towards poor people. HE may be having crores & crores in his account like other millionaires , but he is using for poors which other millionaires are not .
I have great regards for the great soul, but pls he was "satya sai baba" and not "sai baba" himself. sai baba was financially poor but satya sai baba had very rich followers and with that huge funds he served the whole society, definitely alongwith his adhyatmic, divine powers.
Not only Baba even the existing well known Gurus and Babas are basically for rich and during time, amass wealth lying people of their power and taking advantage of ignorance of hindus not knowing about their religion and having their own henchmen to proclaim that miracles have happened to them of their sudden cure from incurable disease, sudden prosperity, blind getting sight, polio getting cured, etc., ofcourse for a consideration, thus becoming popular mostly amongst gullible women.
Its for sensible people to decide about their act and belief. Its like obeying caution board on the road.
be said against sai baba.. first of all let me clarify that i am not a devotee of him nor i have gone to his temples..he may be just a magician...but i have to agree that his practical activities towards society building is really commendable.. he has done things which touches everydays life of common people and that is something worth everything.. hats off to you..add to that the comfort that he brings to many people...man is so made that he finds peace when he surrenders his ego, has firm beliefs(whatever it may be), and sai baba has been able to do that and that has brought peace to many...that is spirituality as well..
