FLUFF  Sathya Sai Baba's divine cosmic ignorance on display
http://home.hetnet.nl/~ex_baba/engels/articles/cosmicignorance.html
Comment: This is an in-depth article written by Jorge Reyesvera, who has to go back to 2001 to find a Sathya Sai Baba discourse he can critique. Many Anti-Sai Activists adamantly refuse to acknowledge the contradictory positions they hold regarding Sathya Sai Baba's discourses. One one hand, Anti-Sai Activists argue (repeatedly) that the English translations to Baba's Telugu discourses are inaccurate, highly edited and are not in any manner indicative of what Sathya Sai Baba literally said in Telugu. Then, on the other hand, Anti-Sai Activists use these very same English discourses (that they consider to be inaccurate and highly edited) as accurate references to what Sathya Sai Baba literally and actually said in Telugu! This article is an example of this type of contradictory reasoning. Click Here to view my article about Brian Steel (which is also applicable to this article).


FLUFF  Unofficial Addendum to the Wikipedia Article on Sathya Sai Baba
http://bdsteel.tripod.com/More/wikissbbs.htm
Comment: This is an article, written by Brian Steel regarding the debate about the Wikipedia article for Sathya Sai Baba. Brian Steel said:

"As the main contributors to the above Wikipedia article spend their valuable time adjudicating complaints and responding firmly and courteously to aggressive and sometimes intemperate critics, they continue to strive for balanced coverage of this controversial topic; pleasing everyone is not easy."

This is not an accurate statement. Click Here to view my article concerning the Anti-Sai bias on Wikipedia and how Anti-Sai Activists are controlling and determining the content to this article.

Brian Steel also said:

"That the appreciable number of discrepancies, exaggerations and errors to be found in the Discourses, as well as in much of the extensive hagiographical literature written about the guru, underline the need for closer study of the evidence and a less partisan account of some central aspects of the 60-year mission of this famous spiritual leader and initiator of charitable works."

Once Again, notice how Brian Steel makes reference to the "discrepancies, exaggerations and errors" in Sathya Sai Baba's discourses. Of course, Brian Steel condemns the English translations but then contradicts his prior condemnations by using these same English translations (yes, the ones that have "discrepancies, exaggerations and errors") against Sathya Sai Baba, saying that they are accurate and literal quotes from the Guru!

Despite Brian Steel being fully aware of my critiques against his wishy-washy, "scholarly" views regarding the translations to Baba's discourses, he refuses to clarify his position (probably because he can't).


TRUTHS MIXED WITH UNTRUTHS  Conny Larsson interviewed about 'Behind the Clown's Mask'
http://www.saibabaexpose.com/GD.htm
Comment: Click Here to view my article about Conny Larsson (aka Connie Larson). In this article, Conny admitted that he was "able to put behind him a life with too much hashish", drugs and alcohol. This article was named, "My God, My Guru, Raped Children". Of course, this is a blatant lie and goes to show how Anti-Sai Activists choose to purposely misrepresent the facts in order to libel Sathya Sai Baba. It is apparent that Anti-Sai Activists have no idea what "pedophilia" means (sex with children 12 years old or younger). Something that Conny never disclosed before is that he had a "crisis with God from 1998 until 2001" (Connie defected from Sathya Sai Baba in 1999). Conny claimed that Sai Baba is a fake and fraud, but in 1998 Conny was relating miraculous experiences with gushing emotions (often breaking down crying and sobbing uncontrollably) just 10 months prior to his disaffection with Sathya Sai Baba. Conny also required psychological help from the tender age of 12 and went through psychotherapy for 7 years later on in his life (for what?). Conny also had a "deprogramming" session just before his disaffection with Sathya Sai Baba. Conny Larsson is also bisexual and had sex with men prior to coming to Sathya Sai Baba (something Conny failed to discuss in this interview). And despite being a Psychotherapist himself, Conny claimed that he knew about alleged sexual abuse incidents going back to 1986 and did absolutely nothing about it!
