Disarming the Doctors?
http://home.hetnet.nl/~ex-baba/engels/articles/disarming.html
Comment: In this article, someone who called himself "The Wizard of Abstract Algebra" did not give us his real name, nor does he provide the general public with proof of his medical credentials. He posed as a doctor and criticized Sathya Sai Baba under the guise of anonymity. This is yet another one of ExBaba's "cowardly creatures" (as Robert Priddy calls them).

Memories of a still thinking, not quite brainwashed, ex-devotee
http://home.hetnet.nl/~ex-baba/engels/articles/memories.html
Comment: This article was written by Sanjay Dadlani. Sanjay said he was "not quite brainwashed" by Sathya Sai Baba yet did not tell everyone that he belongs to the Hare Krsna's (which is considered a cult) and has been fully brainwashed by them. Despite Sanjay Dadlani's alleged devotion to Lord Krsna, he has been fully exposed as a pervert, stalker and defamer of the worst kind.
N. Zealand's Min. of Education scrutinises a Sai school's method for getting funding
http://home.hetnet.nl/~ex-baba/engels/articles/newzealand.html
Comment: Leave it to Robert Priddy to mislead people with false information. The school in question was not a Sathya Sai Baba school, nor did it bear Baba's name or sponsorship. It just happened that John Stevens, the man who ran this school, was basing the curriculum on Sathya Sai Baba's principles. However, the school was not sponsored, funded or associated with Sathya Sai Baba or the Sathya Sai Organization in any way.
Sai Baba

Comment: Cecilia Gatto Trocchi gave perhaps the most erroneous summation of Sathya Sai Baba that I have ever heard. She said that Sathya Sai Baba was born near Bangalore (Wrong: Sathya Sai Baba was born in Andhra Pradesh). Bangalore is in Karnataka, not Andrah Pradesh. Puttaparthi is 180km away from Bangalore. Cecilia said that Sathya Sai Baba used "incense ashes (called vibhuti) as a sacramental substance" (Wrong: vibuthi is not "incense ash"). Cecilia said that Sathya Sai Baba had a "crisis of possession" (Wrong: Sathya Sai Baba never was possessed). Cecilia claimed that "Sai Baba literally means Holy Father" (Wrong: "Baba" means father. "Sai" means "protector, religious teacher or a divine mother").
Among other amusing and poorly researched claims, Cecilia Gatto Trocchi said that Sathya Sai Baba initiates people into yoga meditation and gives them the mantra of "sohum" (Wrong: Sathya Sai Baba does not "initiate" people into any form of yoga). Although Sathya Sai Baba talked about the benefits of chanting "sohum", he does not initiate people with mantras. Cecilia said that Sathya Sai Baba tried to merge the Christian concept of the Trinity with Hinduism by saying, "the Father is Brama, the Son is Vishnų and the Holy Spirit is Shiva" (Wrong: Sathya Sai Baba never said that). Just by looking at the Hindu Trinity, one sees that Vishnu would be the father, Brahma the son and Shiva the Holy Spirit. However, Sathya Sai Baba does not teach this. Cecilia said that Sathya Sai Baba said that "Christ is one of the many divine avatar" (Wrong: Sathya Sai Baba said that Jesus was not an avatar). And to top off Cecilia's poorly researched claims, she said "Sai Baba does not say all religions are equal: to obtain salvation, we must only follow his person and his teachings" (Wrong: Sathya Sai Baba teaches the exact opposite and claims that all religions have truth, all lead to the same place and all worship the same God). Sathya Sai Baba encourages people to worship God according to the dictates of their own chosen religious persuasions. Sathya Sai Baba does not say that one must worship him and his form. This article is plain pathetic.
Robert Priddy gave his two cents as well.
