Okay, well I can certainly call bullshit on that one.

So, amazing feats, no evidence whatsoever, and no attempt to reason/explain.

Unlike psipog, that is.

Until he was mentioned in this thread, I was under the impression that Sai Baba was a fraud. I can't remember where I found that out, so I assumed that I was wrong, and gave Derrick the benefit of the doubt.

As there's no conclusive proof other than a book (that could be EXTREMELY biased, or a publicity stunt), no attempts to explain his abilites, and he's pretty much enjoying being worshipped, I'll revert back to my initial conception of him, and say he's a fraud.

If he explains how he does this stuff, or gives conclusive evidence (other than a book) regarding his legitimacy, then I might consider taking a closer look at him again.

I'm not trying to prove anything to you goofs. I was just telling you about something interesting. I don't want to prove it to you. By the way he's been doing it since he was 14 and there's NO proof, or NOONE that has ever been able to prove he's fake, or explain how he does his "feats". Scientists or magicians. Ever.

P.S Look him up in wikipedia. There's believers and non-believers. No proof. Goofs.

And neither has he.

There's a medical term for what you're doing. It's called shootin shit out your mouth. I think it's best you keep your mouth shut if you don't have anything smart to say. Read the forum name; skepticism. If you can't back up your words then don't say them.

I think I can...for once, agree with Niushirra.

Skeptism isn't the place to spread 'greatness' of a single person.

And....he's been doing since he was, what. 12? 14? Something like that? Seems he found a good way to make a fake living.

You guys are fuking losers. Who's spreading the greatness of anyone? A comment about materialization was made so I mentioned accounts about it. Just mentioning anything on this damn site gets everyone jumping down your throat for proof or evidence. Why can't someone just share some information. Matt and Nishurra go get lives and find somthing better to do with your time than chop up my comments you losers. I already stated I wasn't trying to or didn't want to prove anything to you. Believe whatever you want, I don't care, it's already proven there's no explanation about it so stop making stupid comments.

P.S It might just be me but I think there's kind of an unstated common knowledge around here that you're a jackass anyways nishurra.

I'm being a jackass because you're trying to be a mystic about it.

what does fuking mean exactly? did you mean puking? because I don't think anyone here's sick.


smart-ass response to retarded-ass typo aside, I searched his name and found out a whole bunch of stuff.

Quote:
Sathya Sai Baba is a highly revered spiritual leader and world teacher, whose life and message are inspiring millions of people throughout the world to turn God-ward and to lead more purposeful and moral lives. His timeless and universal teachings, along with the manner in which he leads his own life, are attracting seekers of Truth from all the religions of the world. Yet, he is not seeking to start a new religion. Nor does he wish to direct followers to any particular religion. Rather, he urges us to continue to follow the religion of our choice and/or upbringing.


this makes me think of Sylvia Browne, which does not bode well.
http://www.sathyasai.org/intro/message.htm

Quote:
Sathya Sai Baba has given his life, selflessly and magnanimously, to the service of mankind.


*snorts*

http://www.sathyasai.org/

according to the following link he has had many accusations of sexual abuse, if that's true, then I'm even more skeptical than I was before that he has "given his life, selflessly and magnanimously, to the service of mankind"

http://home.no.net/anir/Sai/enigma/SaiSex.htm

http://www.exbaba.com/

it doesn't prove he's a fraud, but it proves that his claims of "love to all" and "joy to everything" are crap.

Quote:
I have come to light the lamp of love in your hearts, to see that it shines day by day with added luster.


That would blind people.

Quote:
There is only one religion, the religion of Love


thank you, barney.

Quote:
There is only one language, the language of the Heart


my heart says you are dumb

Quote:
There is only one caste, the caste of Humanity


what? so dogs and cats don't exist?

Quote:
There is only one law, the law of Karma


so how come wolves don't get eat by other wolves for eating rabbits?

Quote:
There is only one God, He is Omnipresent.


tell that to the ancient egyptians.

Quote:
The Grace of God is like insurance. It will help you in your time of need without any limit.


not if you let it lapse.

I think it's clear that he's just your typical hypocritical fluffy-ass spirit-hippy.

You shut your mouth in skepticism if you can't back up what you say. The people in here need proof for everything and if you can't muster up proof for something or don't want to it's better you don't say it or something like this happens.
