Sri Sri Meets The Babaster, May Have The Bomb Now

File under: The Siddhi of PR and Hands Where They Don't Belong

Yesterday the great Himalaya mountains trembled under the combined weight of two of India's biggest living gurus, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar and Sathya Sai Baba. While not much has been reported about the meeting, we believe the combined force of their shakti must have been a spectacle to behold, for those who imagine such things exist.

But the whole thing kinda looked more like the appearance of one rock star at the concert of another:
Today evening bhajans started at 5.00 pm. At 5.20 pm Pundit Ravi Shankar of the Art of Living fame walked into the VIP enclosure followed by his entourage. Sai Baba walked in at 5.25 pm, held on the railings and gave blessings for 5 mins and sat down. Bhajans continued till 5.50 pm, Swami took aarathi standing up the whole duration, giving blessings and just before he left he gave blessings 6 times with his Abhaya Hastam and some ladies were so touched that they wept.
A VIP section, crying groupies and the dispensation of blessings seem more reminiscent of a U2 concert than the creepy Babaster's daily appearance.

We imagine the gurus having some difficulty keeping their eyeball lightning in check while in each others' presence. Who knows who would have prevailed had the situation deteriorated. But the Babaster had better watch out over the long run. Sri Sri is apparently training the Indian Army in his Art of Living yoga techniques. As much eyeball lightning as Sai Baba may be able to muster aside, it probably can't compete with the AK-47s and light artillery the Army possesses, not to mention their nuclear capacity.

It certainly gives Sri Sri the one up on every other guru in India. It's a situation we will continue to monitor. As we love to say... developing.

Now, now boys. Keep it civil, or I'm going to have to turn on moderation.

He is also powerful (sorry Jody -- he has some sort of occult powers which I have witnessed many times, not always used for good either).

I'm still not convinced, OTOH. Sri Sri was touring California and my friends at a Kali temple asked him to come pay respects to the deity. Sri Sri had a list of demands that was well beyond what the tiny little temple could provide. All were left with the feeling that he was on a money and fame grab, no occult powers were noticed or are necessary for that.

I'm convinced these "occult powers" are nothing more than the stars-in-the-eyes of those who meet him. People have moving experiences in the presence of movie stars, too. As far as I'm concerned, it's projection and transference, 99% of the time, and personal charisma that last 1%.

What seems strange to me is that some of these bogus or fallen gurus, like Keshavadas really do have a powerful presence, while some I feel are far more advanced, do not.

It proves my point, fg. It has nothing to do with the gurus, and everything to do with you. You are the spiritual savant. It was a karmic coincidence that it involved Keshavadas, but the shakti which manifested at your first meeting was all you, in my opinion. The same exact thing happened to a friend of mine who was also a Keshavadas devotee. I believe it's more a karmic phenomenon. You meet the one that is to teach you and a big kundalini event occurs. It doesn't mean the power was in Keshavadas or orchestrated by him. It was the fact of your karma together which initiated the experience you associate with his "powers."

Reallyyy...
I Agree With dontbullme...
thanks for the shortcut to "the true call.."

These Gurus must write authentic things.. Because Their desiples take them as So Calles "Truth"..

He said. . at that time Riots were going on in Gujarat.. (Several innocent people/girls were getting killed/raped in the name of religion - as heared in news). . His intention was to Calm People down and spread Peace...

Bull shit...

Can he write any thing to save the lives of the people..

Can he write anyyy thing?


It is more important to speak word to word Perfect....

I Completely agree with U

I also dont understand...

Why Sri Sri was in such a hurry to write the book (At the time of Riots) ..

No body were coming in Bangalore to killl him... Why was he not sitting peacefullyy & relaxed there... infront of his PC like DontBullMe...

Why he needs to initiate peace all the time...? I think he has earned a lot.. I have heared he eats only 70 gms rice daily & sleeps in the floor.. what he has earned must be enough for rest of his life.. now he should rest.. and people like dontbullme should take the charge....

U know wht guyz, u ppl r nuts. coz neither u guyz get wht His Holiness Sri Sri Ravishankar is tryin2 say, nor can u listen to ur instinct; ur very self. U said first tht Zakir Naik nailed Sri Sri Ravishankar in the Debate. Fine. But wht was the depate 'bout? Similarities between Islam n Hinduism. Rite? So was tht a competition, Absolutely not. They came to show the world tht we r one. We belong to the same family. But u guyz didn't get tht.Anywayz mr. anonymous says tht he has a lot of money. Srry, AOL is rich in Devotees n Volunteers, not material money. N y does he go spreadin peace. So tht guyz like u n me can stay at home peacefully n have a sound sleep. Man u r the most living dead souls i hv come across, not bcoz u don't respect gr8 ppl, bcoz u dont experiance anythin. Millions of ppl have benfitted fm AOL, but u guyz juz like Sai Baba sayz shall n will suffer until forgiveness fm the Almighty Allah or Shiv or Vishnu or Shakti(all one n the same) bestow over u. Now i realize tht net was though invented by a genius but fools like u r also reapin the benefits of it. N H.H. stand for His Holiness which means tht he is as holy tht u can neva imagine. After readin all this if u guyz have a lil bit of dignity left in u. Understand the meanin of love, transcend words, don't b a fool or else u ll b anomic. Jai Gurudev. God Bless u guyz.

Only those people who cannot do anything other than passing "expert comments" are the ones saying negative things about great masters like Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba and Sri Sri Ravi Shankar.These so-called "rationalists" cannot do anything good for the society.They can just vent out their jealousy and frustration at great masters who are serving the society selflessly and transforming millions across the world.I dont care if I receive hostile and abusive replies for this post.I am used to it. What else can these "rationalists" offer other than egoistic replies? But I am not at all angry at them. May God bless them as well. May all be happy! Om Shanti Shanti Shanti.

First we have to clear one thing that ,A GURU IS NOT A BODY , A GURU IS A TATVA - GURU TATVA is BIGGEST in this universe.

Inside everyone(Human Beings) there is a BIG MIND what we called GURU. Those who knows his /her inner self , He a ETERNAL BLISSED PERSON(GURU).

IF we respect any GURU , IN return we respect with ourselves.

we can not judge a GURU only using yours intellect because we can not judge this universe only through yous intellect. Bramha Gyan (conciousness) is beyond time and space. we simply can not measured it.
Those who know , who knows
and those who do not know , they never knows only by their intellect.

RAVI SHAKAR WITH TAIL AS SRI SRI WENT TO SEE SAI BABA-BUT-SAI BABA DID NOT SEE HIM OR SPEAK TO HIM-HE WAS AMONG THE VIP CROWD-THAT IS ALL

Hi All,

Nice to read all your comments. I will add something for you guys. Maharishi Mahesh used to work under one of the shankaracharyas where he saw the money and influence. So, he started his own shop and became perhaps commercially most successful spiritual guru. At that time, Sri Ravi Shankar was working in his so called spiritual shop. He again saw the same money and influence that Mahesh saw in Shankaracharya's shop. So, Finally Ravi Shankar also started his shop.
The story will continue as this business is evergreen.

If you really want to experience spirituality then try Vipassana meditation.

Naik is like a horse with a narrowed focus and he can't think beyond Quran....He is like a mentally retarded child who keeps repeating his nonsense, foolish talks and like any normal person should behave to these challenged kids is to ignore them and let them be happy within their kind of challenged society. Surprisingly, theres a lot of ignorant friends following his nonsense too.
