Sathya Sai Baba (Telugu: సత్య సాయిబాబా [sʌtjə
sɑːɪ bɑːbɑː]; Kannada: ಸತ್ಯ ಸಾಯಿ ಬಾಬ; Tamil: சத்ய சாயி
பாபா; Malayalam: സത്യസായിബാബ; Sanskrit: सत्य साईबाबा),
born as Sathyanarayana Raju, on 23 November 1926,[1] is
a popular Indian guru, spiritual figure and educator. He
is described by his devotees as an avatar, godman,[3]
spiritual teacher and miracle worker. The apparent
materializing of vibuthi (holy ash) and small objects
such as rings, necklaces and watches by Sathya Sai Baba
has been a source of both fame and controversy
skeptics consider these simple conjuring tricks, while
devotees consider them evidence of divinity. Sathya Sai
Baba has claimed to be the reincarnation of the great
spiritual guru, Sai Baba of Shirdi, whose teachings were
an eclectic blend of Hindu and Muslim beliefs.
Sathya Sai Baba and his organizations support a variety
of free educational institutions, hospitals, and other
charitable works in India and abroad. The number of
active Sathya Sai Baba adherents was estimated in 1999
to be around 6 million, although followers' estimations
are far higher.Since there are no formal ties of
membership, the actual figure may never be known.The
Sathya Sai Organization reports that there are an
estimated 1,200 Sathya Sai Baba Centers in 114 countries
worldwide. In India itself, Sai Baba draws followers
from predominantly upper-middle-class, urban sections of
society who have the "most wealth, education and
exposure to Western ideas. A cultural icon in his home
country, Sai Baba has attracted presidents and prime
ministers from India and beyond who have become his
devotees; in 2002, he claimed to have followers in 178
countries.
