Guest guest Posted December 4, 2000 Report Share Posted December 4, 2000 Hey. Does anybody know if it is true that Ammachi had all the books refering to Sai Baba burned? I am sure everyone is aware that Baba has been charged with pederasty, and has been at it for years. Sorry to say, but we must face facts, right?

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2000 Report Share Posted December 4, 2000 Since I worked in the library at Amritapuri, I feel qualified to venture at least a partial answer here. Mother never allowed Sai Baba books in Her library. There were different reasons given for this, i.e. (1) The facilities are nicer there, and She's afraid people will go there instead of here. (Ha! I was actually told this though!) and (2) She doesn't have books on any other living masters. My suspicion was that there was a deeper reason, and it feels pretty confirmed by what you say. Years ago there was a book (Lord of the Air) about Sai Baba which said the same thing. I didn't like a lot it said, but I felt the author was being totally honest about that. I really have no knowledge about these things, only that Mother is my All in All, and I am so happy that is true. --- sprose1 wrote: > Hey. > > Does anybody know if it is true that Ammachi had all > the books refering to > Sai Baba burned?

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2000 Report Share Posted December 4, 2000 Pederasty is having sex with boys. But who's to say it's true? Anyone can accuse another of anything. John Lennon accused Maharishi Mahesh Yogi of things which I know for a fact were not true. -- Rick Archer Archer Graphics & Consulting 618 Lindenwood Court Fairfield, IA 52556 Phone: 515-472-9336 Donate food free every day: http://www.thehungersite.com Save the Rain Forest everyday: http://www.saverainforest.net Help homeless animals for free: http://www.whitly.com Ellen Lamb <jyotsna2 Ammachi Mon, 4 Dec 2000 19:01:44 -0800 (PST) Ammachi Re: Digest Number 108 Since I worked in the library at Amritapuri, I feel qualified to venture at least a partial answer here.

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2000 Report Share Posted December 5, 2000 Om Namah Shivaya I don't know what has been said about Sri Satya Sai Baba(recently) but I would like to highlight that Sai Baba has been mentioned in the book - Mata Amritanandamayi (Life and Experiences of Devotees) published by Mata Amritanandamayi Trust. One para on page 230 is as follows: Radha Bai, who hails from Calicut, was an ardent devotee of Sri Satya Sai Baba. On 23rd January, 1985 at night she had a dream. Sri Satya Sai Baba along with another holy woman dressed in pure white clothes appeared to her. Both of them were standing in front of a big house. Pointing to the holy woman, Baba told her "You must go and see this Mother."......(which she did) In another story.....in the same book.....on page 235 / 236 there is another storynarrated by one Mr P.O. Narayan Nambiar who hail from calicut, one of the three major cities in Kerala, narrates hisexperience as follows: "Being a devotee of Lord Krishna............It was in the year 1960 when the following incident occured.........I had a dream in which I saw a big hall with a courtyard infront of it...........There I saw two figures; one was that of a holy man wearing a bright orange gown, with a mop of tight curly hair. the other was a holy woman dressed in white who made a sign with her right hand beckoning me to follow them. the holy man neither looked at me nor gestured.......two years later.....I discovered that the holy man was Sri Satya Sai baba of Puttaparthi. Another twenty years passed before on the 26th of January, 1985 I realised that the holy woman whom I saw in the dream was Mata Amritanandamayi....... Question: If what has been discussed is true....which I doubted.....then won't it be seen that Amma is to be associated with Baba....at least in dreams? Jai Ma!

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2000 Report Share Posted December 5, 2000 Namaste dear sisters and brothers in Amma, I was wondering...where did this information come from? Do we know it to be true? And what has Sri Stya Sai Baba said about this? And has Amma made a statement on this if it is in fact true? In Amma's Love, Shelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
