Basava Premanand Long Challenged Indian Governments To Come Clean On Sathya
2009-11-18 00:13:00 Among many attempts to awaken India to the great danger posed by chronic addiction to swamis, gurus and the like, the formost Indian rationalist B.Premanand tried to arouse government and public accountability. The odds he faced were utterly formidable. See my in memoriam tribute to Premanand, with whom I kept in touch over the years: Basava Premanand. Vale. A fighter for truth who lived what others preach One might have thought that the religious organizations, were they to have nothing to hide, would, in effect, have said something like this: Yes, we agree that horrible oppressions in the name of religion exist. We disagree with Premanand in regard to deism and disbelief. However, we are at one with him in wishing to stop exploitation, and we too will speak out very clearly, and do our best to ensure that you are not a voice crying in the wilderness.
Gerald Moreno?s Attacks On Individuals and Institutions Critical of Sathya
2009-08-28 14:57:00 How could any Sathya Sai Baba devotee - of those many who are decent and sincere - bear to read Gerald Joe Moreno's writings? The constant welter of the latter's constant, strident, vituperative and demeaning posts to the Internet can, even at a quick glance, be gauged by the titles of but a small portion of his links, which, for convenience, are posted here: Partial List of Gerald Moreno's Vast Postings Contra Sathya Sai Baba Critics.

New Zealand Lawyer Exposes Official Cover Up of Killings In Sathya Sai Baba
2009-08-20 01:33:00 Long before worldwide allegations of Sathya Sai Baba?s serial sexual abuse of boys and young men began to surface in earnest ? circa AD 2000 ? notable individuals shocked by signs of cover up ? started to analyze situations, and leave the Sathya Sai Baba camp. For an example of early investigators, see the article by Warren C. Pyke LLN (Hons.) LLM (VUW), Barrister, New Zealand 3-3-1993: Sathya Sai Baba Murders Evidence (A New Zealand Barrister Analyses Police Evidence). Another earlier investigator of various serious allegations against Sathya Sai Baba was Terry Gallagher, an agricultural scientist and businessman who, in consequence of his findings, resigned as head of the Sathya Sai Organization in Australia. See: Terry Gallagher?s Testimony
Senior Indian Policeman (Rtd) Speaks Out About Sathya Sai Baba Murders Cove
2009-08-07 12:11:00 As the years have passed, the Government of India and the Government of Andhra Pradesh have not been able to silence all police personnel. One who has refused to shut up is a senior, retired policeman V. J. Ram, whose work as a detective won him a Presidential Medal. He has spoken out against the massive cover up of the police killings in Sathya Sai Baba's private quarters, when Sathya Sai Baba and his brother (the late) Janaki Ramaiah (who was on the Sathya Sai Central Trust) had charge of events soon after the slayings occurred.Those who wish to know more about V.J. Ram's work are welcome to contact me (my details are obtainable by clicking on the tab - Barry Pittard
Sathya Sai Baba?s Slurred Speech Due To Old Age. ?Eenadu? News Report
2009-08-02 12:26:00 That Sathya Sai Baba has made egregious historical and scientific blunders does not inspire confidence in his statements about pre-historical events. See my article: Huge Sai Baba Gaffes Various commentators have pointed to Sathya Sai Baba's 'turkey throat' and other signs of ageing in him, his episodes of falling over (one of which I have observed at quite close quarters along with many shocked observers at a Puttaparthi darshan), his uttering of inanities, his fits of crying, his walking round and round in circles, his blank stare and mask-like face, and so on.

Brian Steel On John Hislop?s 27 Years as Sathya Sai Baba?s Spokesman
2009-07-18 02:07:00 In my recent note Brian Steel On Sathya Sai Baba?s Credibility Gap. John Hislop Contributions, I drew attention to Brian Steel's scholarly article which deals with a seminal figure, Jack Hislop, in the spread of the Sathya Sai Baba movement: Sathya Sai Baba?s credibility gap: Contributions by John Hislop. (Brian Steel January 2009). Steel refers to the controversial Walter Cowan ?resurrection? in 1971, mentioning the refuting evidence presented by Professor Erlendur araldsson , B. Premanand, (the late) Professor Dale Beyerstein. For decades, these critical points met with no satisfactory explanations from the Sathya Sai Baba camp, and yet a great number of devotees rejoice in this so-called miracle of resurrection, as they do in so many 'miracles' of their guru, which, however, keep on being disproved by film footage of excellent provenance

Sleight Of Hand. The Slightness of Sathya Sai Baba
2009-03-09 04:52:00 The magic tricks Sathya Sai Baba employs are a pale shadow of these. But they are comparable to what a clever enough amateur friend or aquaintance of ours (or perhaps we ourselves) can learn and perform. This blog has links to YouTube and other sources which show magic tricks performed by, and in some instances explained, by some of the greatest magicians of all times. These include: Harry Houdini,David Blaine,Lance Burton,

Many Power Brokers Follow Failed Prophet Sathya Sai Baba
2008-12-28 23:03:00 Even in most recent pronouncements, Sathya Sai Baba can be seen making prophecies that are bound to be falsified before long, just as, well before today (see Related Readings, below) his many other absurdities have been shown to be seriously unfulfilled. Much of this would not matter to non Sai Baba followers the world over. However, they had best know that cult members in many countries are in positions of power and influence

A little more than a week before the horrendous terrorist strike on Mumbai, Sathya Sai Baba made yet another of his statements which have been tragically faulted by events seen by an aghast world only a few days later (and, in fact, all along, by a long series of terrorist attacks in India - extraordinarily overlooked by Sathya Sai Baba in his reported statement

2008-11-24 23:03:00 See videos which reveal Sathya Sai Baba, in November 2007, as unable to cut his birthday cakes any longer. See revealing photos. For some time, he has had a mask-like face, suggestive of a degenerative disease. These images completely falsify his own statements in recent years that he would not age
India?s ?Emperor? Sai Baba. By His Lavish Spending Ye Shall Know Him
2008-11-22 22:45:00 Sathya Sai Baba has said that the world should come to him with empty hands. On the other hand, he has succeeded in getting many to come to him with their hands full of gold.

?World Avatar? Sathya Sai Baba?s Troubled Trail
2008-08-31 00:42:00 In any clear reading of the officially published works of Sathya Sai Baba, there are zig-zagging trails of anomaly. The Troubled Trail One sees glaring contradictions, unfulfilled prophecies and broken promises. The multi-colored and pretty ‘balloons’ that he has for so many decades floated - supposedly for the delight of all humanity - keep on popping, ...
Sathya Sai Baba vs. Richard Dawkins
2008-08-25 12:48:00 Sathya Sai Baba has constantly denigrated reason, science, logic and scholarship in favour of faith, especially faith in himself. However, he has proved that he cannot be relied on at all in any way. With his deeply flawed logic and demonstrated ignorance of scientific fact and logical thought, he cannot face up to any rational ...

Self-documented Folly of India?s Would-be God
2008-07-10 09:38:00 It is sobering to consider that Sathya Sai Baba’s influence extends into powerful corners, and his marked deficiencies reveal the worthwhileness of exposing his human rather than any divine qualities. One of the benefits of Brian Steel’s extensive examination of official Sathya Sai publications is that we can see with considerable impact the extraordinary ignorance, inconsistency ...

Gore Says Global Warming Skeptics Same as Believing in a Flat Earth
2008-03-28 04:58:00 This hoax peddler is persistent: According to CBS, when correspondent Lesley Stahl says to the former vice president and 2000 Democratic presidential nominee that some prominent leaders aren’t convinced that humans are contributing to the problem, Gore says: “You’re talking about Dick Cheney. I think that those people are in such a tiny, tiny minority now with their point of view, they?re almost like the ones who still believe that the moon landing was staged in a movie lot in Arizona and those who believe the world is flat. … That demeans them a little bit, but it’s not that far off.” Right, there is an equivalency between believing the Earth is flat, and not believing the doctrine of the Church of Global Warming™. Just because it hasn’t warmed, but cooled, since 1998, no reason to doubt global warming. Just because it was just as warm 800 years ago, no reason to doubt this current trend is man-made. Just because the Science and ...

Skepticism About Homeopathy: Can’t We Just Ignore the Skeptics?
2008-01-29 21:20:00 Homeopathy is the bad boy of healing systems. Over 200 years after its inception it continues to generate controversy, and being skeptical about homeopathy is far more popular than simply accepting it as is. It is not surprising, therefore, that possibly the most popular article on this blog has been Is Homeopathic Medicine the “Enemy of Reason”? (see also the comments that follow it), where I offered an example of the media’s sensationalization of the alleged scientific implausibility and irrationality of homeopathy. Why be skeptical about homeopathy in a homeopathic blog? There are four main reasons for being interested in the skeptical perspective on homeopathy: Perhaps the skeptics will turn out to be correct: homeopathy is all a big lie, and I shouldn’t be wasting my life and your time. More soberly, engaging with the skeptical arguments against homeopathy helps one in developing a balanced, well-reasoned perspective on the subject: while skeptics...
