SATHYA SAI BABA NEWS (With Updates And Comments):
Boys, property and proper ties

Comment: One would think that Robert Priddy would have better things to do than project his negativity on every single thing he reads about Sathya Sai Baba. If it disturbs him so much, why doesn't he refrain from reading it? Instead, Priddy criticizes everything and accomplishes nothing more than establishing a public reputation as a very disgruntled, angry and bitter person. Priddy even finds it amusing to post pictures of lifeless, bloodied bodies on his website. Nothing sweet comes from his mouth. Only sharp, acidic comments filled with hate and criticism. In this article, Robert Priddy criticized Sathya Sai Baba for accepting a robe that was offered with love from his students. Robert Priddy also criticized Sathya Sai Baba for eating food. Despite Sathya Sai Baba being an alleged glutton, he is very skinny. Robert Priddy also took issue with how Baba spends money on apartment complexes, etc. I guess Baba's millions of devotees are supposed to sleep in the streets? Robert Priddy is just grimacing, toffee-nosed, and blathering like a very disturbed person.
The wife of 'Dr. Michael Cochstein' dreams of Sai Baba
http://home.hetnet.nl/~ex_baba/engels/articles/cochstein.html
Comment: This is an amusing article that verifies what I have been saying all along: Newspapers in India are not very accurate. The Hindu (a well respected newspaper, which was also used as "evidence" by both Robert Priddy and Basava Premanand) incorrectly spelled Goldstein's name. They called him "Cochstein". Despite this fact, Robert Priddy criticized the Hindu Newspaper for this discrepancy. Not a very wise thing to do when Robert Priddy cited articles from the Hindu to support his conspiracy theory about the 1993 police shootings. Robert Priddy seemed confused as to whether Sathya Sai Baba dreams are really "dream visions" or not. Apparently, if the dreams are negative they are real, and if they are positive they are fake.

Wolf Messing Paper from Alexandra Nagel
http://home.hetnet.nl/~ex_baba/engels/articles/Paper_WM_2.htm
Comment: It is entirely possible that Wolf Messing did see Sathya Sai Baba. Alexandra Nagel and others said that Wolf Messing could not have have traveled abroad due to the USSR's war with Germany. However, if Wolf Messing had the psychic powers ascribed to him, he could have easily left and entered the USSR at will. So the veracity of this story rests entirely on the veracity of Wolf Messing's powers. If he had powers, the story may be true. If he did not have powers, then this story is false. Alexandra Nagel's opinion is that Wolf Messing did have genuine psychic powers. Therefore, it is entirely possible that he did see Sathya Sai Baba in India.
Hoax-busters

Comment: It is important that magician tricks be divulged to the general public so that they won't be duped by frauds.
In this article, Basava Premanand gave bogus and unfounded estimations to the Sathya Sai Organization's assets.
Sai Baba: God-man or con man?
http://home.hetnet.nl/~ex_baba/engels/articles/conman.html
Comment: An article re-hashing the same points over and over ad nauseam. This article talked about Basava Premanand (who is well known for spreading lies and conspiracy theories against Sathya Sai Baba).
