The 'line' is simply that if you don't believe, then I respect that. As I indicated before, I have met what I would call fundamentalist Sai folk who were adamant they were right, you were wrong. So I disagree with your 'no one' idea. My line is respect of individual choice. Anyone of any stripe who takes that stance is annoying.
Ok, I understand you better with that clarification. I think even Sai Baba would agree with you. If a person seems uninterested or resistant or negative to Sai Baba; then let it go. Sai Baba wishes Bhaktis to follow whatever form of God they feel dearest towards.
But back to my 'I don't understand, your statement seemed to contradict itself... 'haven't benefited" on one hand, and then 'are better now' on the other. Which is it?
I thought you were saying Sai devotees that were braggarts for their Swami hadn't benefited at all. I said even those types of devotees 'are better now' than they would be with no Sai exposure at all. That is what I meant. I think the confusion was that you might have read my statement as also referring to those who feel no affiliation to Sai.

I added a simple Poll. If none are interested in this type of info "about Sai Baba" then I know to not post something like this again.
I of course couldn't be more interested.

I had a little more time today to look at that link. It is from my old friend (never met personally) Samuel Sandweiss.

I have my own 'seeming miracle' story that involves his book 'The Holy Man and the Psychiatrist'. Here is how it goes.

A few decades back now I had an intense interest in the paranormal but very little spiritual understanding from the eastern (India) spiritual traditions. Hinduism was nothing more than an odd ball of confusion in my western mind. At a bookstore I read about a two sentence long message about a Guru in India that is supposedly surrounded by many miracles. I put that name 'Sai Baba' in the back of my mind at that point. During my next trip to my local library I browsed the biography section under 'B' for 'Baba' and ended up coming home with the book 'The Holy Man and the Psychiatrist'. That was the beginning of everything eastern and Sai Baba for me.

Now, for the strange (miraculous?? part). Some time later (maybe a year or two) I went back to that library and couldn't find the book. I did a fairly exhaustive search of their records and catalogues and could find no indication that the book exists or ever existed at that library. I really doubt such a new book was dropped by the library when they have books with an inch of dust on them there forever. (Now, to be honest, I don't claim with certainty that I am not mistaken in some way and that this all doesn't have a 'normal' explanation I missed). But I can't help but think of how Sai asks that he not be proselytized and that he can reach each person who is ready without our help. Why did I find that book at that library that now supposedly does not exist there?

Certainly braggarts, after having been exposed to inner teachings about humility haven't benefited much. Why go to a swami if you aren't about to listen? Some go for the 'coolness' or just to be seen. That's okay, but it's not sadhana.

Divine Sanskrit Revelations through Christian psychiatric patient
I started watching the videos on this Sanskrit speaking miracle on the website provided.

How did I not know about this website before????

How have I not heard of this miracle before????

I search for this kind of stuff. I am kind of floored at the moment. I am going into this website further. This universe continues to amaze me every now and then!

Thanks for sharing. Beautiful experience. Non Sai Devotees can't believe these things. I believe these things, because they also happen to me. So it is not even believe whether it is true or not, we just know these things happen AND are true. And they make life very interesting, a good incentive to focus more on the Divine IMO.

I got this message just a few days ago, and things like this circulate quick in Sai land. I just finished watching all 24 videos now. And in one of the videos Sandweiss mentioned that the messages originated in 1983 and only 34 years later it was the time to bring them out in the open, because he feels they are needed to counter Muddenahalli.

So that means Samual Sandweiss released this site in 2017. So just quite recently. And he never spoke about it in Parthi, which I understand, because he is a scientist he had to work it all out. As he says, he retired in 2006 and only then found the time to explore this patient in depth. So doing all the science struggle to prove things to be true and not a hoax. Being a scientist I can understand he does not want to be boo'ed away. I got quite a few revelation of swami, but I do not tell others either. Most people think I am crazy, because I believe in Sai Baba. I don't care what they think, but definitely I won't throw my jewels to the swines [the ones belittling my wonderful experiences]. That is what they teach in mysticism also "only share to the ones who can appreciate."
