Sathya Sai Speaks - Vol. II Sprouts of Faith 25/11/62

Talking of faith, I must issue a warning. Many people are collecting money in

various places using My Name for various purposes like arranging receptions,

building mandirams, doing puja , etc. This is unauthorized and against My Wish

and Command. Do not yield to such requests and encourage this practice, which I

condemn. Then there is another set of people who trade on your faith. They

advertise that I have 'possessed' them; that I am talking through a medium or a

stove (!) or some other thing. Treat all such people and their agents or brokers

as you treat cheats; if you do not treat them so , then you are also accomplices

in the cheating process. There are others who gather groups of followers and

admirers and collect money exhibiting some idol or image that has been 'given'

by Me or advertising some other sign of My Grace. Some of them even declare,

"Baba sent me to you to take from you some money" or "Baba has given me this"

or "

Baba blessed me specially thus and thus" and then ask you for your help or your

praise or your purse! I ask you to chastise all these types of men and turn

them away - whoever they are.

Sathya Sai Speaks - Vol. IV [ chapter 18 , 23/3/65, Manasa Sarovar ]

Then, there are some who proclaim that I am coming upon someone and speaking

through them! They pretend to be my mouthpieces and communicate to others My

advice and My suggestions, as if I have authorised them or as if I am Myself

telling so through them. Now hear this, I never speak through another, I never

possess another or use another as vehicle of expression. I come direct, I come

straight, I come as I am, to confer Peace and Joy.

Sathya Sai Speaks - Vol. VIII Ch.6 Pg. 13 "You are all I" 14/5/71

Visualise God in your hearts; why go to such place or outside yourselves to see

Him? In some places, they announce that I make Myself present and communicate

through writings on rangoli powder etc! I do no such things. If I come to any

place I come directly so that you see Me. I do not speak or answer through

another person or medium!

Sathya Sai Speaks -Vol. VII Truth of truth 22/11/70

There are others who claim that I am speaking through them and answering

questions put to them. These people must either insane or hysteria affected. I

can only tell you that it is not Me who speaks through them. I do not need

media; nor do I need substitutes or subsidiaries or representatives. There are

some crooks who are publicising that I have allotted them some regions for

ministration by them on My behalf, because they say, My devotees have increased

so much that I am unable to attend to all of them single handed. On the face of

it this is an absurd lie. Moreover consider another aspect. Even those who cry

in pure agonising yearning Sai Sai Sai and lead pure unselfish virtuous lives,

even these find it hard to realise Me. How then can these low scheming vulgar

men who know no sadhana, sincerity, truth and humility; how can these people

claim that they have been blessed by Me. They may wear the same style of dress,

imitate gestures and style of speech but

these will only bring their falsehood into greater prominence. That I am

supposed to "possess" such people or speak through them or shower My grace on

them is an assumption of which one ought to be ashamed! How then can anyone

believe it, I wonder.

SSS Vol 8, P139,"Pretenders" 14/1/73

In the Bhagavatham, there is mention of a certain Poundraka, who sought to

become a passable 'imitation' of Krishna; He added unto his name the name of

Krishna, viz., Vasudeva. He announced himself as Poundraka Vasudeva. He got

made an imitation Couch and an imitation Wheel (out of wood) and carried them

about in his two artificial extra hands. He discovered the style which Krishna

adopted while wearing his yellow silken robe and he scrupulously followed the

same. He skillfully imitated the gait and gestures of Krishna. Some fools

gathered round him, mistaking him to be the Lord they wereseeking. His insanity

finally brought about his downfall and humiliation. In this Kali Yuga also such

imitations are cropping up just as Poundraka shaped himself into a Vasudeva. We

have today even Sathya Sai Babas: They get the same type of robe stitched, they

strain themselves to cultivate the crown of hair, they study photographs and

hold their hands up very nearly

like I do and make themselves ridiculous by frantic attempts to imitate me.They

forget that "imitation is only human; but Creation is Divine." Those who

attempt to become Sathya Sai Babas by this ludicrous process of imitation only

destroy whatever faith some people have placed in the Divine. They are

poisonous pests which injure the peace and harmony of society. They collect

around themselves insects of like nature. For only birds of the same feather

can flock together. These 'pretenders' fall into ruin themselves and bring ruin

on the society where they operate, as the proverbial horde of monkeys that ruin

themselves and bring ruin on the forest which they inhabit.

SSS Vol 9, P 64, "The Poetry of Love" 1/4/74

If you can understand the bhava which I am transmitting, then you can become

genuine devotees and Sadhaks, and progress on the path of self-realization.

Now, there are Bhaktas by the million! They are increasing daily in number. And

you might have noticed, Sai Babas too have become very large in number! Also,

people claiming association with Me, claiming that I have blessed them more

plentifully than others, and authorized them to go about the Bhaktas and gain

importance or funds or donations! Real devotees will never announce such absurd

claims or listen to such claims made by others. A true devotee will be steadfast

in faith, whatever the ups and downs of worldly fortune.

SSS Vol 9, P 185,"Advice to Seekers" 28/3/75

If somebody says Sai Baba's powers have been given to him, then we run to him.

Sai Baba's powers are such that they are not given to anybody else. Nobody has

the ability to take powers from Sai Baba, nor the ability to give them to

someone else. Sai Baba's powers are not given like that, and you should not be

led away by such statements. Each one's power is within him; it is not possible

to give such power to another person. In this manner, by allowing a weak mind to

get control over us, if we begin running from place to place, where are we going

to get strength of mind, and control our own mind? We must be able to follow one

thought, one path. One does not have to search for spiritual power, going around

the world and spending a lot of money .
