Sathya Sai Baba?s political protégés and VIPs
2011-10-03 21:45:00
While still in the Sathya Sai Organization, we from Oslo were continually forced to notice that Sai Baba attracted not only good, sensible and pure persons, but also many of poor understanding and personal ambition (whether one called it ‘spiritual ambition’ or raw desire for special blessings, privilege and power). The people Sai Baba chose as his ...
Sathya Sai Baba?s Chief Broadcaster Dr G. Venkataraman: Select Critical Art
2010-06-23 23:04:00
Sathya Sai Baba Broadcaster Dr G. Venkarataraman: Select Critical Articles, by Barry Pittard Dr Venkataraman is about as close to Sathya Sai Baba as it is possible to get. His worldwide brief as his international broadcaster and his deputy chairmanship of the Sathya Sai Organization makes it revelvant to look at his performance. The reader may keep in mind the question: Is Venkataraman's performance what one would expect of a chief disciple of - supposedly - God fully incarnate? Of course, even the most eminent disciples of famous spiritual leaders of the past made some bad showings, but (if the historical records are to be credited) turned out okay in the final run home. But has Venkataraman done so? A detailed analyis of Venkatarman at work is found in Robert Priddy's and Barry Pittard's jointly authored, four-part article 'The Sathya Sai Organization's Deception and Propaganda Exposed'

Sathya Sai Baba and Dr G.Venkataraman: Will They Disavow Their Idi Amin Fon
2009-10-01 23:09:00
Deputy head of the international Satahya Sai Organization and Head of Sai Global Radio G. Venkataraman?s ?Mr Idi Amin? Report (/Journals/Vol_05/01JAN07/11-pr-asanthi-diary) stands as an appalling affront to those who suffered at this monstrous dictator's hands. Note how Venkataraman, on Sai Global Radio, refers to Mr Idi Amin. I may add that it is interesting that Amin claimed to have a direct line to God. Did he have in mind, specifically, Sathya Sai Baba? Perhaps Amin scholars may have something among their files, and can let us all know. Here is what G. Venkataraman wrote:
Dr G. Venkataraman, Sathya Sai Baba?s Nuclear Boon Companion
2009-09-29 00:18:00
Robert Priddy is the former long-time head of the Sathya Sai Organization in Norway and a retired philosopher in the Social Sciences, University of Oslo. He has written insightfully on the extraordinary, often procrustean efforts of Sathya Sai Baba's head of Puttaparthi propaganda programs to rationalise his beliefs in Sathya Sai Baba. Though not a physical (actually, nuclear) scientist like Dr G. Venkataraman, he has an abiding interest in the sciences, and how a certain variety of scientists, in a great minority but with unfortunate influence far beyond their importance, falsely use science to buttress up their religious claims. The following information may be of particular value for journalistic and scholarly investigators, and also those institutions and agencies which the Sathya Sai cult in many countries attempts to influence - but without portraying their real agendas. For those who may like to hunt and peck among Priddy's writings on G. Venkataraman, I have excerpted fro...

International awards and Sathya Sai Baba
2008-07-12 12:00:00
Sathya Sai Baba has never won any recognised international award. Yet it was made known that his ?holy? name was submitted by Vajpayee’s Indian Government for the Nobel Peace Prize (politically naive and doomed from the start!). Firstly, Sathya Sai Baba supports those who have been vastly increasing the militarism and the nuclear arsenal of ...

Venkataraman, was a top Indian nuclear scientist. His former colleague was the late Dr S. Bhagavantham, also a nuclear scientist, who was Chief Scientific ...
Idi Amin?s son jailed in Britain
2007-08-03 17:23:00
Hard not to have a twinge of sympathy for this guy, even though he participated in a horrific crime. AP has the story Idi Amin’s son jailed in Britain. Amin was an iconic figure from the 70s who taught the world just how barbarically brutal a man could be. He was, perhaps, the first great war lord ...

By Kul Bhushan, : The worst NRI nightmare is Idi Amin's Uganda," recalled Shanti Lakhani in Leicester, UK. 'A glimpse of the same horror was repeated last week.' No matter where they live, all non-resident Indians (NRIs) recoil with panic at the brutal treatment by the Ugandan despot Amin.
Forest Whitaker Terrified Castmates As Idi Amin
2007-03-02 08:25:01
Oscar winner Forest Whitaker was so intense as ruthless Ugandan leader Idi Amin in movie The Last King Of Scotland he terrified his castmates and friends. Ray star Kerry Washington, who played Amin's wife Kay in the film, has been a longtime friend of the actor, but admits even she was nervous about approaching him on the set - because he was so convincing as the egotistical African tyrant.
