don't you find that strange than, what he may have said ?
he gives you what you want ?! think about it... I don't think that that
is the correct thing to do. If a person is truly that spiritual he should
now far better. He should only give that what is pure, not what YOU want.

That may be so, but it is still strange, because no matter how you
look at it, he sais he is God and he sais he is not .. ?!

Why would it be 'better' to see God in Baba ? I haven't found any reason
to think of him as God. Recently there was a very interesting program
in Holland, which incl. something about Sai Baba (the current one)...They
actually got the camera at such an angle that you could see how he got
the ash from his other hand/out of his mow .. that surely made me wonder
even more...then again, I don't know what he sais about this; is he saying
it appears just like that, or does he say it's ash from a puja that he
distributes...Don't tell me again that he sais whatever that person wants
to hear, because I don't buy that, after all, it can be used as a trick,
after all, by doing so, he is never wrong...bad trick if you ask me...
I don't go around and tell you yes, I'm a student, than again,
if somebody else asks me, I say no, I'm not a student...
