To those who hate Sri Sathya Sai Baba and repeatedly state that is a fraud. Don't you think you should have a reason to hate a person ? Sri Sai Baba has never claimed that he is God. To verify this you can go to the students hostel of SSS Institute of Higher Education at Whitefield near Bangalore. There, at the entrance Sri Sai's words are displayed in a photo frame. The essence of the utterings is that God is every where, in me and in you and all things around. If you look at that you can easily see that he has been quoted out of context by people who either are not truthful or bear malice towards him. He has not defrauded anybody. Instead, he has accepted donations from the rich and used it to provide free education, drinking water, hospital facilities etc etc to the general public without any discrimination. Do you have any objection to that? He doesn't force anybody to give donations. On the otherhand, there is a long Q of people who wish to donate money to him for the good deeds he is performing. If he doesn't have any miraculous powers, why would people who are highly intelligent and successful in their proffessions, who have earned money and fame would fall at Sri sai Baba's feet and would be happy to part with their money? Do you think they are less intelligent than you are? Can any ordinary magician who claims he can perform all the tricks, achieve what Baba has achieved? Why is it not possible? As far as the world knows he has not harmed anybody.

Well said !!! Godliness and immortality is of the conscience and not of the body. The conscience acts through the body. It is the physical body that is subject to decay as per God’s own laws. So the event of Sri Sathya Sai Baba becoming ill has nothing to do with his Godliness…..A King follows the laws of his Kingdom if he is a True King, the very same laws that he created.
Lord Jesus Christ has been resurrected, True. And so have been countless Hindu Rishis and Yogis. Hinduism is an eternal religion based on the Absoluteness of One God called as Brahman who manifests in countless ways in different times. It is not dependent on the monopoly of just one messenger.

Converting low caste Hindus is an act of charity. Ambedkar himself advocated this for his fellow low caste Hindus!

When God takes a human form , he is limited by a human birth. God willingly takes human limitations the moment he decided to take birth as human being. Lord Ram not only himself said that he was a mere human being but also he took on all the limitations of a human being. Why for example God's own son carried a cross on his shoulders and died on it most miserably? I am not trying to insult any one but only trying to bring home a point of argument.

The one saving grace is that he got a lot of money from rich industrialists, politicians, traders and many misers and built schools, hospitals, shelters for the poor, etc. Maybe he is a modern day Robin Hood?
How are people believing stories about the all powerful voyeur in the sky, whose main trip is monitoring the thoughts & deeds of people on Earth and handing them rewards or horrific punishments? Theological religions are organized businesses where the clergy & the theologians live off the earnings & labour of the faithful! It is the world's most elaborate sham and con-job! But there exists an army of gullible faithful who hark back to a set of scientifically impossible set of beliefs imported from centuries ago, with no relevance to life as it exists today! Life begins at birth and ends with death! It is what you do in the intervening period that counts! Who wants to believe stories about divine c0nception, snakes being used to churn oceans or angels & gods walking on water, splitting the moon, living forever, etc!! How long will all the true believers keep swigging wine and enjoying houris while the non-believers keep getting roasted in hellfire? This so called true G0d and religion are nothing but fantasies of some mentally challenged desert n0mads & g0atherds!

George Bernard Shaw said it aptly-"The fact that a drunkard is happier or enjoying more than a sober man, does not count for anything. The happiness or enjoyment brought about by credulity is a cheap & dangerous thing."
Jon Krakauer : " I don't know what God is, or I don't know if God even exists, although I find people praying in times of great fear, or despair, or astonishment at a display of unexpected beauty. There are some ten thousand religious sects — each with its own cosmology, each with its own answer for the meaning of life and death. Most assert that the other 9,999 not only have it completely wrong but are instruments of evil, besides. None of the ten thousand has yet persuaded me to make the requisite leap of faith. In the absence of conviction, I've come to terms with the fact that uncertainty is an inescapable corollary of life. An abundance of mystery is simply part of the bargain — which doesn't strike me as something to lament."

That is what most of us detest. A believer in anyGod has no right to citicize the believer in someOtherGods. When all of them are based on foolishBeliefs, why single out only a particular one?

I think a person who did Masters, that too from a premier institue like IISc, having a GATE score of 99 percentile, has choosen to follow Jesus. Do you see him as a fool? If you are serious to know true God, try seriously, just sit alone and ask everyday "true God, please reveal yourself to me who you are?" This is how I found. Now it is 15 years I am following True God, I don't have any fear of any danger even I have hope beyond the grave that I will be with Him forever in heaven.

god on ventilator support-very strange. How can he be a god after all he is just like us just fooling innocent people claiming to be god. Still people are not awake (including learned people) have come into their (so called GODMEN/GODWOWEN)folds. Atleast now please awaken yourself and believe in one Almighty God.

What true? If God's son can be crucified, then God in human form can definitely undergo anything a human undergoes. Even christ was just like us, why build churches for him?

He governs the affairs of the various kingdoms and He commands and forbids, creates, sustains, gives death, gives life, gives power, strips power (to and from whom He wills) and alternates the night and day. He gives varying fortunes to people and alternates governments (and states), destroying some and bringing some into existence. His Command and Power are dominant in the heavens and their zones, the earth and all that which is on and in it, in the seas and in the air. His Knowledge has encompassed everything and He counted everything. He hears all types of voices and they do not confuse Him. Rather, He hears each voice in its distinct language and need, and no voice will make Him busy from fulfilling the need of another, and no need will ever escape His Perfect Knowledge (and His Power to deliver). He does not become bored because of the many needs of those who need. His Sight encompasses all that which there is. He sees the movement of a black ant on a barren rock during a dark night. To Him, the Unseen is uncovered end the secret is secret no more, "Whosoever is in the heavens and on Earth begs of Him (its needs from Him). Every day He has a matter to bring Forth (such as giving honor to some, disgrace to some, life to (some, death to some, etc.)." [55:29] He forgives an evil deed, makes depression vanish and brings reprieve from disasters, relief for whoever needs it, wealth for the poor, guidance for the misguided, light for the lost, help for

God has characters, One is, He is invisible, but you can experience, you can listen through answered prayers, He can reveal to you in a way that you can persoanly get convinced. If you are serious try seriously, just sit alone and ask everyday "true God, please reveal yourself to me who you are?" This is how I found. Now it is 15 years I am following True God, I don't have any fear of any danger even I have hope beyond the grave that I will be with Him forever in heaven.

fullness for the hungry, cover for the barely clothed, cure for the ill and ease for he who suffers. He accepts he who repents, gives reward for he who does good, gives aid for he who was dealt with injustice, destroys an arrogant person, covers mistakes, gives safety after fear end elevates some people and humiliates others. If those who inhabit His heavens and His earth and all those whom He created, whether mankind or the Jinns, had hearts similar to the most pious heart, His Kingdom will not increase. If all His creation, whether mankind or the Jinns, had hearts similar to the heart of the most wicked heart, this will not decrease from His Kingdom. Also, if all those who inhabit His heavens and His earth, all mankind and all the Jinns, the dead and the living, stand up on one strip of land and each asks Him for his need, and He then fulfils their needs, this will not decrease from what He has a bit. He is the First, nothing is before Him, the Last, nothing is after Him, the Most High, nothing is above Him, and the Most Near, nothing is nearer than Him. He, Exalted and Ever High as He is, is the Best Whom one can and should remember, the only One Who deserves to be worshiped and thanked, the Kindest of all those who own and the Most generous of all those who are asked to give. He is the King Who has no partner, the One Who has no competitor, the Samad (Self-Sufficient) Who has no offspring, and the Ever High, none like unto Him. Everything perishes save His Face and every

When ppl prayed to almighty god for education and free hospitals they didnt get it. When they went to Sai baba they got it, so they pray to him. Whats your problem in that? You believe in your almighty God whom you have never seen nor known. Can you show me your ONE almighty God?
