Ramda,

PC Sarkar challenged him to create a pumpkin. Unfortunately he was
good with only smaller lingas, rings and ashes. Our general weakness
for Gods and quickfix remedis make us irrational, blind and gullible.
In a population of 1210 million, its encouraging that only 4 million
believed in his unearthly prowess. I am however sure that the rank of
his followers will see upsurge after his death as his $8.5 Bn empire
will continue to remain and propagate the departed master's legacy.

Nonetheless his good deeds like water supply schemes, hospitals,
educational institutions were undeniably praiseworthy. I respect him
for this, but can't digest the godly dimension.

JS,

There is one magical trick that I think deserves a lot of respect.

That is the ability of politicians to make hundreds of crores of rupees
disappear right in front of the people.
They keep performing this trick very frequently, and the darn public is
still unaware as to how, and where all the money is gone.

:-) :-)

Those who believe him will swear by him, those who don't will unfortunately
humiliate him( even after death ).
I am not a Sai follower but I do respect for the good deeds he has done for
humanity.
It's a shame that the allegations against him were never fully allowed to be
investigated because of his clout and association with powerful people. It's
the same with all the corruption scandals going on in India( or Assam ).
As for his magical tricks, India has produced several magicians but none are
revered.
