Hi Brain and all of you,

As "credentials" seems to have importance to you I have a question to ask a
question - although it is a little offline.

What "credentials" do you (Brian) think the so-called Avatar guru Sathya Sai
Baba from Puttaparthi India has ?
Has his life only been a fake since he left school 14 years old ?
Have you ever meet the guy ?
Has anyone on this list ? And what are their comments ?


from
M. Sufilight with great fun...
