Second Coming Of Semantics VS Second Coming Of Jesus Christ aka Parousia aka Advent

Second Coming Of Jesus Christ - Literally Parousia or Second Advent

Robert Priddy responded (in part):

Robert Priddy: Firstly, Joe Moreno (as vishvarupa108) made wide accusations of clinging to a Christian fundamentalist belief against the group he calls “anti-Sais” which is shown in the following posting which turned up in an archived e-mail attachment I received. There he claimed we all cling to a “second coming” mentality because we have nothing else to cling to. Wholly preposterous, of course, and indicative of Christian fundamentalism – for belief in the Second Coming is hardly no longer a belief promoted by mainstream Christianity (as opposed to fundamentalists). Moreno’s co-worker Lisa de Witt (who he never criticises or corrects despite her outrageous statements) has definitively included and named me as Christian and fundamentalist (which she may try to deny). Therefore Moreno is obviously aligned with her by his recent stated support for her claims.

First and foremost, Moreno has never supported the alleged claim that Lisa De Witt said that Robert Priddy is a Christian. Lisa de Witt denies making such a claim and although Robert Priddy expected Lisa de Witt to deny the claim, he provided no references to support his comments about her. Therefore, this particular argument by Robert Priddy is totally deflated. Secondly, let us look at Moreno’s actual comments (with references) in proper context regarding his usage of the term “second coming”:

Joe Moreno: Yes, Dave, you can still cling to your “second coming” mentality regarding the “truth” that will come out regarding the murders. (Reference)

Joe Moreno: Anti-SSB Activists are clinging to their “second coming” mentality and are relying on unsubstantiated propaganda until the evidence they hope exists, surfaces. (Reference)

Joe Moreno: Robert Priddy clings to his second coming mentality, hoping that his conspiracy theory will one day be vindicated. Eleven years and counting and Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba has never been implicated (in any way, shape or form) with the police shootings that occurred on June 6th 1993. (Reference)

As one can clearly see, the context Moreno used for the term “second coming mentality” was non-religious in nature and was not indicative (directly, indirectly or otherwise) that Robert Priddy and Ex-Devotees were Christians awaiting the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

As rational and intelligent readers are aware, the term “Second Coming” (besides referring to Christ’s return) is also a semantical term commonly used by prestigious media (including Forbes, Discover magazine, international newspapers, books, movies, TV stations, etc.) that does not refer to the Christian concept of parousia (also known as the “Second Advent”). Rather, the term “second coming” can be used to denote the occurrence, hope or expectation of an actualization, reappearance or re-invention of a person, thing or event.

Second Coming By Nike

• The Second Coming of Biofuels
• Brian O’Leary The Second Coming Of Science
• The iPhone’s Second Coming
• Tim Geithner, CNBC, and the Second Coming of Known Unknowns
• Clough’s Second Coming
• Why Keegan’s Second Coming at Newcastle may be doomed to failure
• Al-Qaeda: The Second Coming
• Second Empire to expand in ‘second coming’
• The Second Coming Of Richard Li
• The Second Coming Of Christos Cotsakos
• No Quick Second Coming for Dead Zimdollar
• The Second Coming of Newt Gingrich
• Tony Blair’s second coming
• HOMEOPATHY: THE SECOND COMING
• Medvedev as the Second Coming of Gorbachev
• The Second Coming Of Identity Politics
• Imperfect Charisma: The Second Coming of Benazir Bhutto

Therefore, Moreno’s usage of the term “second coming mentality” proves he did not imply or insinuate (in the least) that Robert Priddy and Ex-Devotees were Christians awaiting the Second Advent of Jesus Christ.

Non-Christian Imagery For Second Coming

Robert Priddy (Pseudonym “Participant Observer”): No, bazza1, I am not a Christian or a follower of any other organised religion. This is typical of Sai people… to think that vested church interests are behind the allegations etc. because Sai Org. chief Indulal Shah made this specious claim in directives against his better knowledge. I know of no Church involvments, and I know the exposé scene better than most. (Reference)

That’s right, Robert Priddy claimed that he knew of no Church involvements against Sathya Sai Baba despite the fact that his co-conspirator and co-writer Barry Pittard openly boasted about polarizing Christians against Sathya Sai Baba. Reinier van der Sandt (the webmaster to the largest Anti-Baba websites on the internet and a known associate of Robert Priddy) posted Christian banners on his Ex-Baba domain (Ref) and wrote a couple of letters to Cardinal Simonis attempting to polarize Christians against Sathya Sai Baba. Read The Full Article About Christian Anti-Hindu and Anti-Baba Movements Here.

So when Robert Priddy attempted to argue that Moreno “hypoctitically tries through vehement denial to appear to distance himself from the business of smearing ‘Anti-Sais’ as Christians and/or fundamentalists among whom he definitively includes me”, he is out of touch with reality.

The extreme way in which Robert Priddy pigeonholes Moreno’s words gives one the distinct impression that Robert Priddy is unmovable by truth or reason and his moral cowardice is masked in bold rhetoric.

From Susan Boyle To Judgmentalism To Sai Baba To The Elephant Man

Susan Boyle

Rather, Barry Pittard attempted to draw unsuspecting readers to his defamatory Anti-Baba blog by using the name and fame of Susan Boyle to his advantage. Barry Pittard rambled in various directions interspersing information about Susan Boyle with random attacks against his former Guru Sri Sathya Sai Baba (whom he once hailed as God Incarnate and Lord of the Universe) and Joe Moreno (a Pro-Sai Activist).

From Susan Boyle To Judgmentalism To Joe Moreno To Sai Baba:
In Barry Pittard’s article entitled “Susan Boyle. Unexpected Divine Chanteuse. Sweet 47”, he said:

Barry Pittard: “Judgementalism on the grounds of a person’s body shape, place of origin, social status, and so on, is, course, one of humanity’s most destructive tendencies. Is there a profound lesson to be learnt by every one of us?”

Far be it for Barry Pittard to preach about the “destructive tendencies” of judgmentalism when he engages in malicious “judgmentalism” against his former guru Sri Sathya Sai Baba (based on age, body shape, disabilities and so on). Some relevant quotes from an article entitled Barry Pittard – Pseudo-Compassionate And Pseudo-Moral Pathos End In Laughable Bathos:

Barry Pittard: His ‘turkey throat’ sways from side to side. He wears the mask face of a sufferer from e.g., Parkinson’s disease.

Barry Pittard: Sai Baba has long proclaimed that he is the greatest “avatar” (manifestation of God in human form), but his empire looks as shakey as his own legs, and as his sagging turkey throat, which wobbles from side to side.

Barry Pittard: At other times, he mutters indecipherably. His mask-like face suggests serious medical symptoms. His hair, which he has said would remain intact, except to go white, thins badly. He has had a number of hip operations.

Barry Pittard: Not only does he have a sagging face that has more than a trace of some degenerative disease – giving him a mask-like expression, but for the last few years he has developed what is called ‘Turkey’s Throat’, aptly named.

The big question is: WHY does Barry Pittard engage in judgmental attacks against Sathya Sai Baba (based on age, body shape, disabilities and so on) when he blathers about the evils of “judgmentalism” on his Anti-Baba blog? Apparently, Barry Pittard is one of those self-serving hypocrites and pseudo-moralistic preachers whose precept is bereft of practice.

Instead of focusing on all the good that Sathya Sai Baba has done and all the good that Sathya Sai Baba has inspired, Barry Pittard rather focus on the guru’s “turkey throat”! How’s that for a real eye-opener on “judgmentalism”? Considering Barry Pittard’s obscene fascination with throats, one cannot help to wonder if he thinks Susan Boyle has a “turkey throat” as well? Sadly, Susan Boyle’s double-chin has been a judgmental focus for the media as well. A few examples: 01 – 02 – 03.

From Susan Boyle To Judgmentalism To The Elephant Man:
About Barry Pittard, Moreno said:

Gerald Moreno: Let us see if Barry Pittard looks any better than Sathya Sai Baba does (according to one email source, his face is heavily and deeply wrinkled, his head is mostly bald and he is physically unattractive). Barry Pittard also collects a disability pension (the details of which are fanatically guarded secrets) and shows all the signs of old age. Despite this fact, Barry Pittard hypocritically points out faults in a much younger-looking Sai Baba! Barry Pittard sounds more intent on revenge & ridicule than he does on “justice”.

In response, Barry Pittard replied (in part):

Barry Pittard: But can Moreno, at all, be referring to the fine creature I see before me in my never-cracking mirror each morning? Might he have got me mixed up with the Elephant Man?

Although Barry Pittard’s Anti-Sai associates continually demand that Moreno publicly publish his picture on his websites (even though they already possess his picture and spam it on their websites and blogs), Barry Pittard is not man enough to come forward and publish his picture on his Anti-Sai blog (or anywhere else for that matter). Does this have to do with the fact that by showing his face the email description sent to Moreno will be confirmed? Or does it have to do with the fact that by showing his face women who may have been sexually molested by him under the guise of “spiritual healings” will come forward and identify him as the culprit? If Barry Pittard is such a “fine creature”, he should come forward with a recent picture of himself and vindicate his egotistical boastings about his appearance.

Moreno never compared Barry Pittard to the Elephant Man, nor did Moreno say anything about Pittard’s appearance (as Moreno does not know what Pittard looks like). Moreno simply referenced a description of Barry Pittard sent to him via email. Barry Pittard responded by jumping to the worst conspiratorial view and posted a picture of someone he believes embodies complete hideousness and ugliness, i.e., Joseph Merrick (aka The Elephant Man). How’s that for “judgmentalism”? What more can one do but laugh out loud at Barry Pittard and his lamentable self-righteous posturing?

One Of Two Pictures Posted By Pittard Of Joseph Merrick The Elephant Man

When Moreno was libeled by Barry Pittard’s co-writer and co-conspirator Robert Priddy as being Sexually Molested By Sathya Sai Baba, Barry Pittard sat there in silence (apparently admiring in the mirror the “fine creature” he thinks he is).

Barry Pittard openly falsified a free press release article in which he falsely claimed that the US State Department named Sathya Sai Baba “Re Pedophile Accusations”, a bold-faced and gutter untruth. See For Yourself.

Click Here to see the types of pictures that Ex-Devotees typically post against Sathya Sai Baba, about which Barry Pittard has never once complained. As a matter of fact, Barry Pittard published a falsified picture of Sathya Sai Baba holding hands with Idi Amin. This is the type of sleaze and slime that Barry Pittard purposely drowns in over-zealous diatribes about morality, ethics, compassion and non-judgmentalism!

Of course, Susan Boyle has absolutely nothing to do with Joe Moreno, Sathya Sai Baba or the Elephant Man. Barry Pittard is a self-anointed moralist and self-appointed proxy spokesperson for alleged victims (all of whom refused to cooperate with him and all of whom refused his offer of free “world class legal resources”) who is apparently attempting to exploit the popularity of Susan Boyle in exchange for some cheap publicity for his defamatory Anti-Baba blog.

Putting aside the faceless defamer Barry Pittard, let us take a look at Susan Boyle, someone notable with real talent, worthy of attention and who brings genuine inspiration & upliftment:

Susan Boyle (born 1961) is a Scottish amateur singer and church volunteer who came to public attention on 11 April 2009, when she appeared as a contestant on the third series of Britain’s Got Talent. Boyle found fame when she sang “I Dreamed a Dream” from Les Misérables in the competition’s first round.

Before she sang, both the audience and the judges appeared to express scepticism based on her unpolished appearance, and apparent awkwardness. In contrast, her vocal performance was so well received that she has been dubbed “The Woman Who Shut Up Simon Cowell”. She received a standing ovation from the live audience, garnering yes-votes from Cowell and Amanda Holden, and the “biggest yes I have ever given to anybody” from Piers Morgan. The audition was recorded in January 2009 at the Clyde Auditorium in Glasgow, Scotland.

The juxtaposition of the reception to her voice with the audience’s first impression of her triggered global interest. Articles about her appeared in newspapers all over the world, while the numbers who watched videos of her audition set an online record. By 20 April 2009, viral videos of her audition, subsequent interviews of her, and her 1999 rendition of “Cry Me a River” had been viewed over 100 million times on the Internet. Cowell is reported to be setting up a contract with Boyle with his Syco Music company label, a subsidiary of Sony Music. (Reference)

The frumpy 47-year-old, who says shes never been kissed, has gained celebrity fans and millions of admirers - including a fair number of men - since appearing on the show. Her fame has been fueled by new technology, with a clip of her performance viewed more than 12 million times on YouTube. AP Photo/Andrew Milligan-pa

Susan Boyle Stuns ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ Audience and Even Simon Cowell
Wednesday April 15, 2009
Categories: Entertainment, Pop Culture, Television, Trends

The evening and morning news shows–as well as 5 million YouTube viewers–are abuzz over a lesson we all need to learn. And the first live audience was enthusiastically willing to do so, as their judgmental laughter and eye-rolling turned into spontaneous and enthusiastic applause and outright cheers!

Susan Boyle is a 47-year-old charity worker from West Lothian, Scotland. It’s a place known for great golf and pleasant locals who go about their business relatively quietly. It’s a long way from Hollywood.

As she was interviewed by Simon Cowell on “Britain’s Got Talent,” everything about her stage presence–from her dress to her hairstyle to her choice to avoid make-up to her age–seemed to say this was going to be one of those Gong moments for the show.

This CNN clip of her performance shows some wonderful before and after pictures of the audience members. Before the song, it was obvious they didn’t expect much. Nor did Simon. Miss Boyle said her goal was to become a professional singer. “Why hasn’t it worked out so far,” he asked. Her confident, poised and cheerful response should have given us an idea of what was next.

“I’ve never been given the chance before, here’s hoping it’ll change,” she beamed.

And then…wow!

An audience ready to laugh and ridicule became synchronized in their amazement, applause, cheers, and instant respect for the gifted woman singing before them.

Piers Morgan gave her “the biggest ‘yes’ of his career!” It’s possible she’ll go a long way in the competition. And I hope she does, because she is a living example of one of things I absolutely despise about our media-driven culture. The idea that women need to be young, thin, tabloid-friendly, and discovered by the time they’re 25 is an unhealthy as it is foundationless. There are so many gifted people who hold no hope of ever being discovered for their talents. They go undiscovered except for their close friends and perhaps some church attendees. And it shouldn’t be that way. And we know it.

That is why I was inspired not only by her song, but by the crowd’s reaction. Everyone loved it! They loved her! They were touched by her raw talent, her beautiful voice, and became instant fans. The part about each of us that is quick to judge is also quick to respond to excellence and beauty. We should be quicker to look for the beauty in people, and I’m not sure our media-driven culture trains us to do that.

I will continue to hope that shows like this provide a stage for the many, many Miss Boyle’s in Britain, America and around the world. Everybody wins when someone like her steps forward! (Reference)

Susan Boyle And Judgmentalism

As Susan Boyle lives her dream, what have we learned?
Mary Schmich
April 19, 2009

What if Susan Boyle couldn’t sing?

If Susan Boyle couldn’t sing, she’d have vanished into TV history, remembered, if at all, as just another self-deluded weirdo.

If Susan Boyle couldn’t sing, Simon Cowell wouldn’t have stopped smirking; the spectators would have kept on snickering; and America’s newest heroine would have gone back to her Scottish village to resume the life of an unmarried, unemployed, ungainly, middle-age woman who lives alone with a cat.

In other words, without what we define as talent, Susan Boyle would be an object of mockery and pity.

“What has Susan Boyle taught us about the way we judge people based on appearance?” I heard some radio host intone on Friday.

My answer: Not much.

Because if Susan Boyle couldn’t sing, she’d still be the kind of person some people avoid sitting next to on the bus.

The happy news, as the world learned last week, is that Susan Boyle can sing. Her heart-rending rendition of “I Dreamed A Dream” on “Britain’s Got Talent” turned “the Scottish spinster,” as various reports put it, into “a singing sensation,” “a media sensation” and a “YouTube sensation.”

“Indeed,” said one newspaper story, “a full range of emotion—first humor, then shock, followed by warm appreciation and perhaps a dollop of self-reproof for anyone who dares to judge others principally by their appearance—can be extracted from Boyle’s seven-minute clip.”

Oh, please. If Susan Boyle couldn’t sing, there would be precious little self-reproof going on.

The story of Susan Boyle is undeniably appealing. Listening to her sing, I got a lump in my throat too:

You go, girl. You show all those people who for your whole life have bullied you and doubted you. Show them you can do something better than they thought you could, better than they can.

But after the rooting’s done, what’s the lesson? That we shouldn’t make fun of odd people because they might have talent?

In all the gushing over Boyle’s performance, there remains an unpleasant undercurrent. Well, yes, she’s 47, way past prime time. But she can sing!

Oh, and those bushy eyebrows, that wiry hair, that stocky figure, the double chin, and her manner, it’s so strange. But she can sing!

And, OK, as one writer put it, she’s “perpetually single,” which is tragic, my friends, but at least the old gal can belt out a tune.

The message? Almost everything about her is abnormal and unattractive, but let’s overlook it because she can sing.

I know a woman who reminds me unnervingly of Susan Boyle. This woman is also in her mid-40s, unmarried, unemployed, overweight, bushy-browed, wiry-haired, eccentric. If you said frumpy, I would resent it but I would understand.

Like Susan Boyle, she is the youngest of a large clan of kids and, also like Boyle, she has struggled her whole life with a learning disability that has taught her more than anyone should know about being mocked.

Like Boyle (whose mother died a few years ago), she has lived her adult life with her mother and a cat.

This woman is my sister. And unlike Boyle, my sister has no dazzling talent. She can’t sing or dance. She paints and draws in ways that move me but elude the multitudes.

She talks sometimes about how people treat her.

“It’s nightmarish,” she’ll say, “the way people look at me, as if I’m not like them.”

She’s not like a lot of them. But there are legions of people like her, people who, like Susan Boyle, live and look different from what we call the norm. My sister confesses that sometimes those people make her uncomfortable too.

“I guess we’re all that way sometimes, aren’t we?” she said not long ago. “We get uncomfortable around people who seem strange.”

We do. I do. Almost all of us do. But the lesson I’d hope we take from Susan Boyle is that people deserve respect, however strange they are, even if they don’t have talent. (Reference)

Fighting The Smears – Defense Of The Sathya Sai Organization

Robert Priddy (a caustic critic and defamer of Sathya Sai Baba and others) said the following about Dr G Venkataraman and Joe Moreno’s defense of the Sai Organization:

Sai Organization Defense Claims

Robert Priddy: “Despite Moreno’s oyymoronic claim that the Sathya Sai Organization needs no defending, it has been defended by Dr. G. Venkarataman of Radio Sai and also massively by Moreno himself. This defense was done because of documented evidence and testimony on a large scale of its unaccountability, planned disinformation and deceptions of the public, covering up and ignoring crimes, including murder and sexual molestations of which all its leaders are aware. They have failed to exercise duty of care and ignored mandatory reporting.”

It is entirely true that the Sai Organization does not need to be defended from any bona-fide or legal complaints because none have ever been filed with the police or courts of law in India.

The only defenses offered by Dr G Venkataraman and Joe Moreno for the Sai Organization are those that expose the massive fraudulence of critic’s smear, disinformation, hate and defamation campaigns against Sathya Sai Baba on the internet.

Robert Priddy said that the Sai Organization “failed to exercise duty of care and ignored mandated reporting” regarding allegations of sexual abuse. Actually, the only people who have “failed to exercise duty of care and ignored mandated reporting” regarding sexual abuse are alleged victims and their mothers and fathers who have all (without exception) failed and refused to file a single police complaint, court case or public grievance in India against Sathya Sai Baba. These irrefutable facts strongly argue that Sathya Sai Baba never abused anyone and alleged victim’s accounts are highly unbelievable and come from non-credible sources.

The big question that Robert Priddy and other critics continually ignore is:

WHY should the Sai Organization resort to the legalistic process of “mandated reporting” regarding internet rumors when all of the alleged victims (without exception) and all of their mothers, fathers and relatives (without exception) have all failed and refused to resort to the legalistic process of “mandated reporting” themselves against the Sai Organization?

Robert Priddy’s argument is reverse logic. Instead of harping on the legal and moral duties of the Sai Organization, he should be focusing on the legal and moral duties of alleged victims and their mothers and fathers (all of whom have never filed any sort of legalistic complaints in India against Sathya Sai Baba).

Priddy’s argument is akin to accusing a person of theft, demanding that the thief publicly repent and turn himself into the police although there are no police complaints or court cases alleging theft!

Robert Priddy can interpret Moreno’s exposure of his embarrassing lies as a “defense” of the Sai Organization if he so chooses. In fact, if anyone is defending the Sai Organization, it is Robert Priddy! Why? Because Robert Priddy’s claims are so exaggerated, his pathos so caricatured, his libels so brazen, his arguments so flawed, his bitterness so palpable, his hissy fits so shrieking, no one in his/her right mind can believe anything Robert Priddy has to say against the Sai Organization.

Robert Priddy is an LSD Advocate and publicly defends Alaya Rahm (the prime interviewee on the Secret Swami Documentary) although Alaya self-disclosed (in official court records) that he was a college drop-out and a decade-long daily-user of illegal street drugs and alcohol seeking a large money settlement from the Sathya Sai Baba Society Of America! The end result of Alaya’s court case: Self-Dismissed With Prejudice! Robert Priddy is also a fierce defender, promoter and associate of Conny Larsson, an ex-devotee turned self-professed Prophet and Psychic Trance Medium! And to top it all off, Robert Priddy fabricated sexual molestation claims against Moreno. If Robert Priddy has the temerity to falsify sexual molestation claims against Moreno, what other stories of sexual molestation is he falsifying as well?

Thank goodness that very few revel in Robert Priddy’s bigoted campaigns to substitute rumor and gossip for bona fide evidence. The only defense the Sai Organisation requires is against the voluminous lies, conspiracies, propaganda and rhetoric dispersed against it by people who have shown themselves (time and again) to be pathological prevaricators.

Fighting The Smears – Public Pictures And Swami Premananda

Ex-Devotees (in particular Robert Priddy and Psychic Trance Medium Conny Larsson) have whined considerably about the fact that Joe Moreno (a Pro-Sai Activist) removed his picture from his personal website. The argument made by Ex-Devotees is that the absence of Moreno’s public picture is indicative of deceit and dishonesty. Let us take a closer look at what Conny Larsson published about Moreno on his Anti-Baba domain (similar arguments against Moreno have been made on Robert Priddy’s Anti-Baba blog as well):

“Joe Moreno originally had the photo of himself as above on his website, but he he removed it very soon after he began his attacks on ExBaba and associates. Why did he feel the need to do this? Is he worried that he could be recognised by people in the Sai movement when he goes to India etc.? It is true that thieves like anonymity and the dark, and it seems this also applies to thieves of copyright materials and defamers who fear consequences. By engaging in debate as a public figure on the www, he has – according to US law – to put up with his face (or rather his own ‘bust’) and chosen setting being exhibited by participant and observer parties.”

When Moreno provided a screencap to a public domain picture of Robert Priddy and Kai Nicolai Priddy, the image was immediately removed. Why did Robert Priddy feel the need to do that? Is he a “thief” who likes “anonymity and the dark”?

When Moreno provided screencaps to public domain pictures of Conny Larsson giving “psychic trance healings” on various women, those pictures were immediately removed. Why did Conny Larsson feel the need to do that? Is he a “thief” who likes “anonymity and the dark”?

To Date: One will not find a single picture of the vocal ex-devotees: Barry Pittard, Brian Steel, Dave Lyons, Reidun Priddy, Dennis Hanisch, Arthur Klein, Randi Godager, Julian O’Donnell, Terry Gallagher, Stephen Carthew, Jens Sethi, Gurprit Sethi, UsedByBaba, Barbara Dent, Hari Sampath, NitWit Nastik, Hariram Jayaram, William Lo, Glen Meloy (now deceased), Richard Nelson, Roy Pendragon, Shirley Pike, Sharon Purcell (now deceased), Rick Raines, Diana Scott (Payne), among numerous other critics and ex-devotees. As a matter of fact, even Robert Priddy did not make his image publicly available on his Anti-Baba websites for many years (only recently did he add very small thumbnail-sized pictures to them).

Why do critics demand that Moreno provide his picture publicly when many of those in the Anti-Sai Movement haven’t done so themselves? The answer: Self-serving hypocrisy, pure and simple! Robert Priddy and Conny Larsson made the argument that Moreno is a “thief of copyright material” because he copied their pictures to his websites. However, Robert Priddy, Conny Larsson, Alan Kazlev and Reinier Van Der Sandt have all published Moreno’s picture on their Anti-Baba websites and blogs. Therefore, what does that make them? You guessed it: thieves of copyright material”!

NOTE TO EX-DEVOTEES: Please come forward with your pictures and post them publicly for all to see or all of you will be seen as hypocrites, faceless cowards and “thieves” who “like anonymity and the dark”. Have the courage to put into practice the standards that Robert Priddy and Conny Larsson demand from Moreno. Otherwise, your silence and failure to act will invalidate Robert Priddy and Conny Larsson’s self-serving arguments and justify Moreno’s choice not to publish his picture.

Regarding Swami Premananda:
Furthermore, Robert Priddy said:

Robert Priddy: “Having removed his personal account and any details about himself from his vishvarupa.com website, Moreno still defends the convicted murderer and rapist Swami Premananda (double life sentence confirmed by Supreme Court Appeal) at vishvarupa.com, though he has removed former materials about that too!”

First and foremost, Moreno’s “personal account and details” were never (ever) published on his vishvarupa.com domain (hence Priddy’s inability to find that information). Conny Larsson & Co. were the first ones to disperse this total disinformation about Moreno. As one can see, Robert Priddy is a gullible and naive sciolist who relies on other’s black propaganda to make his arguments against Moreno.

It is also amusing that Robert Priddy claimed that Moreno removed material about Swami Premananda from his vishvarupa.com domain. In truth, Moreno’s material about Swami Premananda was never removed from his website: See for yourself. One is left to wonder where exactly Robert Priddy is getting his disinformation from and why he miserably failed to double check his facts before attempting to peddle his shoddy lies as the pristine truth.

Click Here too read how the UK’s leading DNA expert, Dr. Wilson J. Wall, testified that the DNA samples used to convict Swami Premananda were fraudulent. As a matter of fact Dr. Wilson J. Wall said the following about the court cases against Swami Premananda:

Dr. Wilson J. Wall: “Someone is trying to set-up Swami Premananda. The DNA case is a fabrication from start to finish. This deception throws a terrible shadow over validity of DNA fingerprinting if now there are scientists who are prepared to misuse it to find the innocent guilty.”

The book “The DNA Detectives” by Dr. W.J. Wall (which was published in August 2005) explains the fraudulent use of DNA evidence in the Swami Premananda case. Also, all of the alleged rape victims said they were tortured into giving false testimonies by the police and have since recanted their statements against Swami Premananda and have returned to his ashram.

Robert Priddy libeled Moreno as being sexually abused by Sathya Sai Baba and similarly claimed that Moreno removed his interview experience from his website (a bold faced lie). Moreno’s interview is still available on the internet and has never been removed: See For Yourself.

Robert Priddy’s atrocious researching abilities result in utter fiascoes of disinformation that are wildy and recklessly propagated as “irrefutable truth”! It is beyond dispute that the quaesitum of Robert Priddy’s rodomontades is the implementation of conniving techniques to woo over fatuitous egotists (which come a dime-a-dozen in the Anti-Sai movement) by using gutter tactics such as scapegoating, conspiracy theory, black propaganda and demagoguery.

Robert Priddy has effectively negated himself as a credible factor in the Anti-Sai-Baba movement and his proxy allegations, unsubstainated accusations and bold-faced libels can best be compared to sand castles that have been demolished and now blow across Ozymandias’s dead empire.

I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them on the sand,
Half sunk, a shatter’d visage lies, whose frown
And wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamp’d on these lifeless things,
The hand that mock’d them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear:
“My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!”
Nothing beside remains: round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

By substituting the name of Ozymandias with “Robert Priddy”, Percy Bysshe Shelley’s poem seems remarkably apropos…

Fighting The Smears – Bogus Sai Petition And SaiSathyaSai Server Claims

Robert Priddy (a caustic defamer and critic of Sathya Sai Baba and others) said:

Robert Priddy: Ever since shortly after he first appeared as a pro-Sai obfuscator (and saboteur of the International Sai petition with bogus and untruthful submissions and comments) in 2004, Gerald Joe Moreno has tried to hide his face and cover his tracks on the Internet. He posted his website via an Indian third party web service to make locating his server undiscoverable to non-technical Internet users. This was nonetheless traced to U.S. server lunarpages.com, where libelous websites by him are still hosted.

About The Bogus ‘Sai Petition’:
Click Here To Read About The Bogus ‘Sai Petition’ mentioned by Robert Priddy.

Robert Priddy just fully acknowledged that “bogus and untruthful submissions and comments” were submitted to the Sai Petition by Moreno. Of course, the big questions are:

1. How was Moreno able to submit “bogus and untruthful submissions and comments” to the Sai Petition if it was truly a legitimate and legal Petition that verified its signatures and submissions?
2. If Moreno was able to submit “bogus and untruthful submissions and comments” to the Sai Petition, then who is to say that others did not submit “bogus and untruthful submissions and comments” to the ‘Sai Petition’ as well?
3. Why did Robert Priddy take one of Moreno’s openly faked names from the Sai Petition (which Moreno publicly disclosed on his website) and use it as a genuine and first-hand signature against Sathya Sai Baba (Ref)?

Thank you Robert Priddy for finally admitting that “bogus and untruthful submissions and comments” were submitted and accepted into the ‘Sai Petition’! That’s exactly what Moreno has been saying all along.

About The SaiSathyaSai.com Server:
Robert Priddy’s comments about Moreno’s saisathysai.com domain reveal his profound ignorance about the internet. Of course, this is not the first time that Robert Priddy publicly embarrassed himself with his remedial research (which he attempts to peddle as the “truth” to other unsuspecting “non-technical internet users” such as himself). Robert Priddy formerly claimed (and still does) that Moreno used/uses anonymous and cloaked IPs, since proven ridiculous lies. Robert Priddy and other Ex-Devotees do not know how to read IP headers and even attributed IPs generated by their own computers to Moreno.

Moreno’s saisathyasai.com domain has never (ever) been posted “via an Indian third party web service”. Robert Priddy does not provide any verifiable references to support this ridiculous claim against Moreno. Moreno purchased his domain names through GoDaddy.com, which provides privacy services that protect domain registrants from spammers, scammers, spoofers, etc., by hiding one’s name, address, phone number and email address from public WhoIs results. Server information, however, is not hidden and is readily available on GoDaddy.com WhoIs inquiries.

Robert Priddy’s SaiBaba.org.uk Domain:
Robert Priddy anonymously registered his saibaba.org.uk domain (which attempted to fraudulently impersonate an Official UK Sai Organisation domain). The WhoIs results for Robert Priddy’s saibaba.org.uk domain provided the following details:

Domain name: saibaba.org.uk

Registrant: None

Registrant type: Unknown

Registrant’s address: Agathe Grondahlsgate 2b, Oslo 0478 NO

Relevant dates:
Registered on: 20-Aug-2007
Renewal date: 20-Aug-2009

Therefore Robert Priddy implicates himself in the very same reprehensible behavior he attributed to Moreno. Hypocrisy, clear and simple! Why did Robert Priddy register his fraudulent saibaba.org.uk domain anonymously with a UK designation when he lives in Oslo, Norway? If anyone is attempting to deceive others about web hosting servers, it is Robert Priddy.

Robert Priddy should first come clean about his fraudulent domain name and how he was barred from posting Sai Baba material on that domain (the details of which are fanatically guarded secrets) before attempting to criticize Moreno who has done nothing wrong.

Moreno has to repeatedly deflate Robert Priddy’s fatuous arguments that are fueled by his total disinformation, lack of knowledge about the internet and self-generated hot air. But then again, what more to expect from Robert Priddy, an LSD advocate and pathological prevaricator who openly advocated for a Pro-Drug forum intended for drug users and who publicly libeled Moreno as being sexually abused by Sathya Sai Baba?

Fighting The Smears – Cloaked IP, Proxy IP, Hiddden IP , Anonymous IP – Internet Protocol Numbers – Internet Protocol Address

What is an ‘IP’? Information About Internet Protocol Numbers:
An IP is an acronym for “Internet Protocol”, which is an address that can uniquely identify a computer-user to his/her ISP (Internet Service Provider). An IP usually resolves to a “netname” and country unless it is a proxy IP (also called “anonymous IP”, “hidden IP” or “cloaked IP”). Proxy IPs are generated by masking one’s real IP with an anonymous IP generated through an anonymous proxy server. An IP contains 4 sets of numbers that are separated by periods (for example: 213.78.122.150). IPs usually fall within a “range” that makes the last 2 sets of number static. For example, the IP: 213.78.122.150 would fall into the IP range:

213.78.64.0 – 213.78.127.255

This means that the last 2 sets of numbers may vary between 64.0 to 127.255. Although these last 2 sets of numbers may be static, they will not change the ISP, netname or country that the IP resolves to and is not indicative of multiple users or different computers.

Internet Bully Robert Priddy’s Failed Case For Cloaked IPs Against Joe Moreno:
At home.chello.no/~reirob/geodata.htm, Robert Priddy (a caustic defamer and critic of Sathya Sai Baba and others) duplicated four of Moreno’s known IPs (yes, Moreno fully acknowledge the IPs in question were his) and said the following about them:

“Three different geographical locators showed the following results for one of the IPs used by Gerald Moreno: Anyone can check Moreno’s various IPs at these websites…The source data for the mailform sent to ExBaba.com was forwarded to me by the webmaster and I copy it here below. This is only necessary because Moreno would doubtless deny having sent it otherwise. His other e-mails and visits to ExBaba are also duly recorded for anyone who wishes to check these facts. The can send a mailform to ExBaba on the Guestbook if they wish for further verification of Moreno’s use of cloaked and anonymous IPs.”

The four IPs in question are:

• 67.0.236.65
• 67.0.212.28
• 4.240.144.145
• 4.240.213.36

Attempting to prove that these IPs were “cloaked” and “anonymous” Robert Priddy published screen-capped IP results from the GeoBytes, MelissaData and GeoPinPoint IP Address Locator websites. View the results for yourself (along with other Internet Protocol Address Locator results):

Why Do The IP Addresses Resolve Differently?
The answer is quite simple: Software. Not all IP software is the same. Different software parameters (each website utilizes its own IP software) establishes possible locations for an IP based on the software’s components and parameters. Some software is more complex than others and this would account for the differences one sees on IP Locator websites. Some IP websites can only establish the Country for the IP while other IP websites can list potential cities, latitudes/longitudes and other information. Most IP websites do not list the Host for an IP but ipcountry.org does. This is due to IP software.

Because the four IPs did not resolve exactly the same way and because the four IPs did not miraculously divulge Moreno’s name, address and phone number, Robert Priddy erroneously concluded that Moreno was using “cloaked” and “anonymous” IPs. What is amusing about this is that Robert Priddy published a screencaps from GeoBytes which clearly showed that Moreno’s IPs were not Proxy (aka “cloaked” or “anonymous”) IPs. Moreno’s four IPs, as checked through GeoBytes’ IP Address Locator, prove that his IPs were not cloaked or anonymous (see “is proxy” line):

Moreno IPs Were Not Proxies

Robert Priddy Attributed The 127.0.0.1 IP To Joe Moreno:
Robert Priddy also claimed that Moreno used the anonymous “loopback” IP of 127.0.0.1.

False Attributed Loopback IP

“IETF document ‘Special-Use IPv4 Addresses’ (RFC 3330) describes the 127.0.0.0/8 as a reserved IPv4 address block for loopback…Within a host system, the loopback interface is normally assigned the address ‘127.0.0.1′ with subnetwork mask ‘255.0.0.0′. This makes the routing table of the local system set with a routing entry of ‘127.0.0.0/8′, so that packets destined to any address of this ‘127.0.0.0/8′ would be routed internally within the local system.

HUMOR: An urban legend involving 127.0.0.1 is often circulated among the more technical computer related forums on the web. The story often involves an antagonist often referred to as ‘The World’s Worst Computer Hacker’. The story generally involves the Hacker hacking himself when tricked into using 127.0.0.1 as the IP address to hack into.

HUMOR: In the same vein, 127.0.0.1 is often used as an IP address given to inexperienced computer users as a practical joke. Another story involves a user who, after finding that pinging 127.0.0.1 pings his computer, tells all of his associates that his IP is 127.0.0.1.” (Reference)

It is clear that Robert Priddy and Anti-Sai Activists do not know how to properly read email headers and attribute inaccurate IPs to Moreno. Another example is cited next.

Psychic Medium Conny Larsson Cited The Wrong IP Header Against Joe Moreno:
Psychic Medium Conny Larsson claimed that Moreno used an anonymous IP that his IP resolved to iana.org. Conny Larsson’s email provider is mail.com (conny@mail.com). Moreno decided to set up his own mail.com account to view the type of headers used on their emails so that he could compare them to the headers Conny Larsson attributed to him.

Moreno sent an email from his yahoo.com account to his new mail.com account and discovered that Conny Larsson purposely lied about his IP. Indeed, an iana.org IP appeared in “X-ob-received ” line. However, Moreno’s IP clearly showed up in the “received” line, below the “message-ID” line. Here is the relevant information:

Full Email Header With Different IPs

Return-Path: vishvarupa108(a.t.)yahoo.com
Delivered-To: conny:mail.com@mail.com
Received: (qmail 15141 invoked by uid 0); 9 Nov 2005 23:52:04 -0000
X-OB-Received: from unknown (192.168.9.27) by mta1-6.us4.outblaze.com; 9 Nov 2005 23:52:04 -0000
Received: from web53006.mail.yahoo.com (web53006.mail.yahoo.com [206.190.49.36])

Another perfect example of the hypocrisy and chronic lies that Conny Larsson & Co. resort to smear Moreno’s name. Conny purposely posted only 5 lines when there were actually 12 lines (leaving out the line that had Moreno’s IP). Anyone is free to set up a mail.com account and verify this information first-hand for him/her self. Needless to say, Robert Priddy repeated Conny’s lie about Moreno’s IP like a well trained parrot and continues to repeat his fraudulent “proxy IP” lies despite Moreno’s detailed rebuttals.

A Look At Robert Priddy’s IP & Penchant For Proxy IP Accusations:
On Wikipedia, Robert Priddy submitted a signed comment under the IP 80.111.21.76 (Ref). Running this IP through GeoPoint, Arin and UniversalWebServices the following results were obtained:

• GeoPinPoint – 80.111.21.76 (Resolves to Oslo, Norway)
• Arin – 80.111.21.76 (Resolves to Amsterdam, Netherlands)
• UniversalWebServices – 80.111.21.76 (Resolves to Sweden)

Does this mean that Robert Priddy is using cloaked and anonymous IPs? Using Robert Priddy’s illogic, the answer is “yes”.

Needless to say, Moreno is not the only person who Robert Priddy erroneously accused of using Proxy IPs. On wordpress.com, the owner of the “awmyth” blog (using the name “little indian”) wrote an article entitled Just Another Arrogant Westerner about Robert Priddy’s systematic bashing of India and Hinduism.

In a second blogged article entitled Arrogant Westerner Continued, “little indian” duplicated emails sent to him by Robert Priddy in which Priddy accused “little indian” of “using different anonymous IPs” and “suffering from a deep cognitive disorder”. “Little indian” responded by saying:

“I have Google Web Accelerator installed on my browser. I do not control, or modify my IP, Google does that, ‘from Texas’. Maybe you do not know what that is.”

Not only does Robert Priddy believe that he is perfectly entitled to defame others with impunity, he also feels he is perfectly entitled to bludgeon others with his colossal ignorance about IPs, which he obviously can’t research despite his egotistic claims of being a “scholar” and conducting thorough research!

Proxy IPs – In Conclusion:
Let it go on record that Moreno fully acknowledge that the following four IPs belong to him:

• 67.0.236.65
• 67.0.212.28
• 4.240.144.145
• 4.240.213.36

All of these IPs faithfully resolve to known destinations and are not listed on any Proxy IP Servers. Moreno has openly used these IPs on Wikipedia, Yahoo Groups and in his Email Correspondence with Ex-Devotees. Moreno has absolutely nothing to hide and is not afraid to state the truth regarding this matter.

Although Robert Priddy takes such a vehement stand against cloaked and anonymous IPs, he completely disregards it when his fellow Anti-Sai friends use Proxy Servers and Anonymous IPs to spam Moreno with hate mail and to submit Moreno’s email address to pornography websites. This has been shown (with proof) to be the case with Sanjay Dadlani (who even posted a link to Moreno’s site through a proxy server on a Yahoo Group: 01 – 02), Afshin Khorramshahgol (who admitted using Proxy IPs 01 – 02) and Reinier Van Der Sandt (who spammed Moreno with hate mail through Proxy IPs).

One will not find even one word from Robert Priddy remonstrating his fellow friends and their proven attempts in subterfuge and deceit. This was even more the case when Ex-Devotees thought their IPs were not being recorded on QuickTopic (they were) and they collectively used no less than 90+ fake identities (including Moreno’s identity). These are the shameless hypocrites and equivocators who consistently fail to make a sober argument against Moreno (even less so against Sathya Sai Baba).

P.S.
Moreno emailed Robert Priddy a link to this page so he could trace his IP again :-)

Let’s hope this time the poor chap does it right.

SAI BABA CRITIC – ROBERT PRIDDY – AN ADVOCATE FOR DRUGS AND LSD

LSD Structure

Robert C. Priddy created his own Wikipedia page in which he publicly solicited himself as a notable person in relation to Philosophy and his former Indian Guru Sri Sathya Sai Baba. Robert C. Priddy released his biographical data on a personal website hosted by a free, online hosting company in Oslo, Norway (home.no.net/anir/Nos/). On this free web-hosting domain, Robert Priddy personally disclosed biographical data that included stories of his experimentation with LSD, cannabis and other strong bio-chemicals. Robert Priddy deleted all of his public domain LSD-related webpages after he defected from the Sai Movement, apparently perceiving those LSD articles as a liability to his self-professed credibility, integrity and objectivity (Ref). Robert C. Priddy is now attempting to remove his relevant, unsavory, public and self-disclosed biographical data from the internet, although the material in question was released by him into the public domain as self-disclosure.

The DMCA And Google Both Ignore Robert Priddy’s Copyright Claims:
Robert Priddy claimed that he filed several copyright complaints (about Moreno’s duplication of his LSD articles) with the DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) and with Google (a multi-billion dollar corporation fully versed and compliant with copyright laws). According to Robert Priddy, both the DMCA and Google disregarded his copyright complaints (proving that Moreno’s duplication of his LSD articles falls under “Fair Use” and would not be considered an issue of copyright infringement). The articles in question were: 1) Unaltered; 2) Attributed; 3) Not dispersed for financial gains or published on a business website; 4) Taken from a free, online webhosting domain (not from a book or magazine).

Robert Priddy’s Relevant LSD Articles (for which he now publicly claims authorship) are:

• “The Psychedelic Experience” (View Archive)
• “Truth, Being And Bliss” (View Archive)
• “A Vision Of Cosmic Energy” (View Archive)

Robert Priddy Claims His LSD-Induced Hallucinations Were Genuine Experiences:
On Robert Priddy’s Anti-Baba blog, he said the following about his LSD-induced hallucinations:

Robert Priddy: On LSD-25 and alleged “drug-induced hallucinations” Moreno makes false assumptions in dismissing LSD-25 experiences merely as induced hallucinations – it is very far from being so simple. Hallucinations can occur as a result of LSD, but they did not in my case. I was a student interested in psychiatry and psychology and my dose of LSD-25 was actually provided by the Norwegian Minister of Health explicitly for experimental purposes! Only one who has experienced it can have any idea at all of what inner clarity and scope of the mind may be released, if one is well-balanced and fortunate in the circumstances. In that I was in company with many well-known writers and hands-on researchers on the subject (egs. Aldous Huxley, Gerald Heard, Professor Susan Blackmore etc.) The dangers are considerable for borderline psychotics and others, so experiments are definitely not to be recommended to the public.

In Robert Priddy’ detailed LSD articles (and in a subsequent update added by him after a Pro-Sai Activist found the LSD-related webpages), he never stated that his LSD-25 was “provided by the Norwegian Minister of Health explicitly for experimental purposes”. Robert Priddy specifically stated he first experimented with cannabis then later experimented with LSD when he was 26 years old in 1963 with his friend Eric Steadman (with whom he shared a “perfect unspoken telepathic awareness”) and the entire episode was saved on a tape-recorder he turned on.

Although Robert Priddy wrote about his LSD experiences in depth, he never mentioned anything about any University officials, volunteer testing, Karl Evang or that the LSD-25 he took was “provided by the Norwegian Minister of Health explicitly for experimental purposes”. Furthermore, Robert Priddy admitted he experimented with cannabis before he experimented with LSD in 1963, experimented with “strong bio-chemicals” and LSD years after he experimented with LSD in 1963 and even wrote about another LSD-induced hallucination in 1965. Therefore, Robert Priddy fully acknowledged he experimented with drugs prior to and after his initial LSD trip in 1963. Was Robert Priddy also using cannabis and other “strong bio-chemicals” for “experimental purposes”? Although Robert Priddy whined that his druggy years are “outdated” and “ancient”, it is amusing to note the he eulogized his “outdated” and “ancient” druggy years:

1. In 1988 (25 years later) in his LSD article entitled “TRUTH, BEING AND BLISS – AN AMAZING PSYCHEDELIC EXPERIENCE – Described By Robert C. Priddy – British author & ret’d researcher and teacher in philosophy and sociology, University of Oslo, Norway” (Ref).
2. In 1994 (31 years later) in his book “Source Of The Dream”, pg: 16-7, Chapter 2: ‘When the Soil is Ready’ (Ref).
3. In 2009 (46 years later) on his Anti-Baba blog in an article entitled “Copyright Infringement By SathyaSaiBaba”.

In the referenced quote above, Robert Priddy claimed “I was a student interested in psychiatry and psychology”. Robert Priddy told a different story in his LSD article entitled “The Psychedelic Experience – On how I came to psychedelic experiences By Robert C. Priddy”. In that article, Robert Priddy said he was a student of philosophy and sociology (not “psychiatry and psychology”) and that he considered psychology “mostly irrelevant to understanding people, myself or anything remotely like the psyche”!

It is also significant to point out that the scientific community (contrary to Robert Priddy’s layman claims) unanimously agrees that LSD is a hallucinogenic drug and is commonly referred to as a “hallucinogen” (Refs: 01 – 02 – 03 – 04).

When Sai Devotees attribute extraordinary experiences, dreams or visions to Sathya Sai Baba (without the aid of drugs), Robert Priddy bashes those experiences as mere flights of fantasy, imagination, mental disorder and/or projection. However, when it comes to Robert Priddy’s LSD experiences (induced with the aid of drugs), he proudly proclaims them as genuine and bona-fide! This is the type of Anti-Guru / Pro-LSD weirdo who continually attempts to invalidate Sai devotees for their spiritual experiences! If a person claimed a spiritual experience, who would you be more inclined to believe:

1. A person who never used drugs?
2. A person tripping on LSD?

And let us not forget what exactly Robert Priddy claimed was revealed to him when he tripped on LSD. Robert Priddy claimed he saw (amidst lots of fluff and airy-fairy scenes) his wrist break with the bones sticking out of his flesh, compared the experience to what “schizophrenics may experience with intensity”, that his mind was ”deranged” and that his mind was “shattered into pieces again and again”. Gee, that doesn’t sound “hallucinatory” at all, does it? (sarcasm implied)

LSD Advocate Robert Priddy Refers Readers To A Pro-Drug Website:
Attempting to bolster the case for his experimentation with LSD, Robert Priddy posted the following link on his Anti-Baba blog (click image to enlarge):

Robert Priddy Refers Readers To A Pro-Drug Forum

Robert Priddy: For objective source materials and intelligent discussions of LSD-25, see this major Forum

Since “scholar” Robert Priddy (who always boasts how thorough his research is) provided a link to drugs-forum.com (and described it as being “objective” and providing “intelligent discussions of LSD-25”), he apparently researched the site thoroughly and approved of its contents.

Let us take a closer look at drugs-forum.com, a website Robert Priddy described as “objective” and providing “intelligent discussions of LSD-25”.

First and foremost, drugs-forum.com is an international Pro-Drug website where users can request and/or share information on how to take, grow, purchase, make and use all types of illegal drugs, including LSD-25 (Refs: 01 – 02 – 03 or View Entire LSD Threads). All of these LSD-related threads prove that the discussions therein are far removed from being “objective” and do not provide “intelligent discussions on LSD-25”.

Drugs-forum.com provides numerous threads advocating for legalizing all types of drugs (Ref) and even provides threads about which drugs maximize sexual experiences (Ref). Drugs-forum.com also provides picture galleries so that users can identify hallucinogenic mushrooms, peyote, opiods, hallucinogenic cacti and hallucinogenic plants (Ref). A majority of the posts on the drugs-forum.com domain are chock full of invectives and graphic language. This is the type of Pro-Drug forum that “scholar” Robert Priddy described as being “objective” and providing “intelligent discussions on LSD-25”! Perhaps Robert Priddy posts on that Pro-Drug forum since he claims to know it so well, he actually provided a link to it on his Anti-Baba blog.

Robert Priddy revealed his drug advocacy and revealed his standards for “objectivity” and “intelligent discussion” by citing a Pro-Drug forum full of invectives that is intended for drug users! Thank you, Mr. Priddles for coming clean once again!

Robert Priddy, Kevin Shepherd, Drugs-Forum.com & Stanislav Grof:
It is also amusing to note that the drugs-forum.com webpage that Robert Priddy linked to (which he described as being “objective” and providing “intelligent discussions of LSD-25”), linked directly to another drugs-forum.com LSD webpage that strongly advocated for Stanislav Grof’s book “History Of LSD Therapy” (Ref). The drugs-forum.com website provides over 120 pro-articles on Stanislav Grof, holotropic breathwork and Pro-LSD research (Ref). The reason why this is so amusing is because Robert Priddy professes friendship and alliance with Kevin Shepherd, a staunch Anti-Drug, Anti-LSD and Anti-Grof critic! Isn’t it ironic that Kevin R.D. Shepherd professes friendship and alliance with Robert Priddy although:

1. Robert Priddy eulogized and promoted LSD for those who are “well-balanced and fortunate in the circumstances”.
2. Robert Priddy eulogized his LSD-induced experiences as bona fide revelations and not as the result of hallucinations (an absurd and dubious claim at best).
3. Robert Priddy solicited the objectivity and intelligent discussions of a Pro-Drug forum intended for drug users.
4. Robert Priddy solicited the objectivity and intelligent discussions of a Pro-Drug forum intended for drug users that strongly advocates for Stanislav Grof, Holotropic Breathwork and the benefits of LSD.

What more can I say more about Robert Priddy and his laughable views, absurd arguments and clown-like antics about LSD? This is the guy who is attempting to “expose” Sathya Sai Baba. Well, the truth is now out about Robert Priddy (direct from his personal blog) and there is no stopping it! Expect Robert Priddy to do damage control, offer no apologies, deflect from the issue and bore everyone with his mindless prattle. Afterall, that is what he does best.

Predictable April 8th 2009 Update:
After publishing this article about Robert Priddy’s loud endorsement of drugs-forum.com, a Pro-Drug Forum intended for drug users (which he described as containing “objective source materials and intelligent discussions of LSD-25”), Robert Priddy rushed to do damage control (just as Moreno predicted he would) and removed the link to drugs-forum.com by saying:

Robert Priddy Does Damage Control

Robert Priddy: “Please note: Having looked more closely at the web pages on LSD-25 I had first linked to here I found them partly very misleading and that there was an overall bias towards possibly dangerous viewpoints, though there was also nonetheless a good deal of accurate historical and other materials in them and/or linked to them. As a whole those pages do not represent my standpoint, therefore the link is deleted”

“Scholar” Robert Priddy (who constantly claims he conducts thorough research) argued that drugs-forum.com (a Pro-Drug Forum intended for drug users) contained “objective source materials and intelligent discussions of LSD-25”). Now, however, Robert Priddy is claiming that his initial assessement of drugs-forum.com was wrong and the website is not as “objective” or as ”intelligent” as he first assessed it to be.

Why doesn’t Robert Priddy specifically tell us which webpages on drugs-forum.com (a Pro-Drug Forum intended for drug users) contained a “good deal of accurate historical and other materials in them and/or linked to them”?

Perhaps Robert Priddy’s change of heart was prompted by an email I sent to Kevin Shepherd about Priddy’s Pro-Drug advocacy? Kevin Shepherd is a notorious critic of the Findhorn Foundation, Stanislav Grof and LSD. Kevin Shepherd has a lot of face to lose by allying himself with LSD-advocate Robert Priddy. Well, for interested Findhorn Foundation members, Stanislav Grof advocates and LSD critics, Robert Priddy still believes that there is absolutely nothing wrong with using LSD and that his LSD trips were not hallucinatory in nature (although LSD is a hallucinogen)!

Rather, Robert Priddy would have the world believe that LSD is simply a great “mind clearer” that produces out-of-body experiences that result in enlightenment and visions of broken bones sticking out of bloody flesh! What more can one do but laugh out loud at Kevin Shepherd and his LSD-advocating friend, Robert Priddy?

Robert Priddy Fabricates Sexual Molestation Claims Against Joe Moreno

Public Domain Picture Of Libeler Robert Priddy With Son Kai Nicolai Priddy

After many years of silently endorsing vicious defamers and libelers like Sanjay Dadlani, Tony O’Clery, Basava Premanand, UsedByBaba, Barbara Dent, Alan Kazlev, Conny Larsson, etc., Robert Priddy finally mustered enough courage to slither his way out of his gutter only to openly libel Joe Moreno as being “molested sexually” by Sathya Sai Baba! Let us take a look at Robert Priddy’s actual words (which I have saved, screencapped and sent to relevant individuals for legal purposes):

Robert Priddy Libels Joe Moreno

Robert Priddy: Why this perpetual backward pseudo reasoning from Moreno? It is a case of total denial of a compulsive kind. Moreno has himself described how his pants were lowered by Sathya Sai Baba lowered and he was ‘oiled’ on his “lower stomach”. Since this was not done by a doctor under consent, it was sexual interference without explanation (’grooming’ or testing for an erection) which objectively amounts to himself having been molested sexually (according to Indian law). Moreno did not perceive it as such, but few who go into the private room behind closed doors believing Sathya Sai Baba to be a divinity seldom do. The attention he felt this amounted to gave him a great lift, and he has stated that no one before Sai Baba had taken any notice of him! Few tell openly what happened, and Sai Baba warns most not to tell. This prominent fact in Moreno’s story is one which we may be allowed to question further. One obviously asks “how low”? Embarrassment in telling the facts accurately can fairly be assumed.

It goes without mention that Joe Moreno refuted and denied being sexually abused by Sathya Sai Baba going back to July 2006 when he was first made aware of those attacks (Ref). Apparently Robert Priddy is following in the footsteps of his sexually-focused friend Sanjay Dadlani (who made similar accusations against Moreno). At no time did Moreno ever state that he had “his pants lowered by Sathya Sai Baba” (a bold-faced and gutter untruth). To the contrary, Moreno specifically stated, at no time were his pants ever pulled down. Robert Priddy is wholly unable to reference his bitter and venomous attacks against Moreno with any credible, verifiable or factual references because Moreno never (ever) made any of the claims falsely attributed to him by Robert Priddy.

Isn’t it strange that for someone who is alleged to have been “embarrassed” about being “molested sexually”, Moreno revealed the full details of his interview experience with Sathya Sai Baba on a public website (Ref)? Surely, if Moreno was so “embarrassed” about being “molested sexually” by Sathya Sai Baba, he would not have publicly mentioned it in the first place!

Robert Priddy also wrote the following about Moreno’s interview with Sathya Sai Baba:

Robert Priddy: He had posted it along with an account about himself and his visit to the ashram – and the private interview room – of Sathya Sai Baba (and his ‘oiling’ by him). Later he removed this as too compromising – but it was too late as it is downloaded and in good keeping.

Robert Priddy is a bold-faced liar. Moreno’s interview experience with Sathya Sai Baba was never removed from his geocities website. It is still available on the internet and Moreno has no intention of removing it: See For Yourself. Robert Priddy’s absurd claims about Moreno prove he is a pathological liar in need of orthodox psychological help.

Robert Priddy claimed he had private interviews with Sathya Sai Baba. Was Robert Priddy “molested sexually” and is he too “embarrassed” to talk about it as well? Priddy’s private interviews must be viewed in the exact manner as he views Moreno’s private interview. It does not matter what clarifications, denials or explanations Robert Priddy may give. He will not be free of the perception that he was “molested sexually” and is too “embarrassed” to talk about it.

Robert Priddy’s true colors have finally come to light. And thank goodness for that! Robert Priddy is (as people have been saying all along) a bitter, vindictive and sexually twisted liar who purposely distorts information against others to revenge his big & bruised ego and impotent arguments against Sai Baba. If Robert Priddy openly falsifies sexual molestation claims against Moreno, what other sexual molestation claims is he fabricating as well?

Amusingly, Robert Priddy had the audacity to make several legal threats against Moreno for “defamation” (if the information is negative, but true, that is not “defamation”). Let Robert Priddy proceed with a legal case. He will be greeted with a swift countersuit of such proportions, sphincters will contract in his gaunt body that he never knew he had!

[Middle English proccy, contraction of earlier procracie, annual payment to a prelate, from Anglo-Norman procuracie, from Medieval Latin prōcūrātia, alteration of Latin prōcūrātiō, from prōcūrātus, past participle of prōcūrāre, to take care of.]

Munchausen By Proxy Syndrome:
Readers may be familiar with the illness Munchausen By Proxy Syndrome (MBPS), which is a rare disorder that involves the exaggeration or fabrication of illnesses or symptoms by a psychologically unstable primary caretaker. The disorder was named after Baron von Munchausen.

Prittard By Proxy Syndrome:
Akin to MBPS, one could say there is another common “illness” that can best be described as “Prittard By Proxy Syndrome” (“Prittard” being a combination of the last names of Robert Priddy and Barry Pittard) that involves the exaggeration or fabrication of alleged abuse or criminal acts by psychologically unstable conspiracy theorists.

Non-Victims Subjectively Arguing The Cases Of Alleged Victims:
Robert Priddy and Barry Pittard (the main spokespersons for the Anti-Sai movement) are notorious defamers and critics of Sathya Sai Baba and others. Although Robert Priddy and Barry Pittard act as spokespersons for alleged victims, they cannot provide a single document authorizing them to act as agents or speak on behalf of alleged victims (all of whom have never filed a basic police complaint, court case or public grievance against Sathya Sai Baba in India).

Irrefutably, Robert Priddy and Barry Pittard have:

1. Never (ever) witnessed a single incident of alleged abuse by Sathya Sai Baba.
2. Never (ever) witnessed a single incident of alleged criminal behavior by Sathya Sai Baba.
3. Never (ever) were abused by Sathya Sai Baba.

Therefore, Robert Priddy and Barry Pittard are self-appointed proxy defenders of alleged victims and self-appointed proxy defamers of Sathya Sai Baba. Even going back to 2001, people sympathetic with Ex-Devotees rightly questioned the many hearsay allegations against Sathya Sai Baba, wondered why alleged victims were not defending themselves and wondered why non-victims were the ones making all of the fuss (Ref).

‘By Proxy’ Accusations Against Joe Moreno Based On Conspiracy:
Since Robert Priddy and Barry Pittard both accuse Joe Moreno without proof of being a “proxy defender” of the entire Sathya Sai Organization, they set a new standard of definition for the word “proxy” that implicates themselves in the very same conspiracy theories they formulate against Moreno.

For example, both Priddy and Pittard made the argument (and made it poorly) that the Sai Organization is:

• Secretly waging a defamation and libel campaign against ex-devotees.
• Secretly funding Joe Moreno.
• Secretly associating themselves with Joe Moreno.
• Secretly promoting Joe Moreno.
• Linking to Joe Moreno’s websites.

Of course, Priddy and Pittard are wholly unable to back up their conspiracy theories with any factual or credible information. Rather, Priddy and Pittard attempt to argue their case that because non-official Sai-related websites have linked to Moreno’s website, those non-official Sai-Related websites (which ex-devotees claim are really official Sai-related websites in disguise) are spearheading defamation and libel campaigns against them! One must remember that these non-official Sai-related websites (which have disclaimers stating they are not affiliated with the official Sathya Sai Organization) simply provided a link to Moreno’s website without duplicating any content or text from Moreno’s websites.

Therefore, Priddy and Pittard argue that because links were provided on non-official Sai-related websites, the entire Sathya Sai Organisation is spearheading defamation and libel campaigns against them! Talk about disastrously ill-formed conspiracy theories (very much akin to critic’s disastrously ill-formed conspiracy theories against Sathya Sai Baba)!

Important Note: There is absolutely nothing to “protect” or “defend” the Sathya Sai Organisation from. To Date: Not even one parent or family member has come forward alleging “pedophilia” against Sathya Sai Baba. To Date: Not even one police complaint, court case or any type of legal grievance has been filed against Sathya Sai Baba or the Sai Organization in India by any alleged victim. Therefore, what exactly is there to “protect” or “defend” the Sathya Sai Organization from besides internet rumors, gossips and conspiracies?

‘Proxy’ Defamers Purposely Ignore Relevant Facts:
Needless to say both Robert Priddy and Barry Pittard continually cite (ad nauseam) the Secret Swami Documentary as something legitimate in their favor although the prime witness (Alaya Rahm) self-disclosed the fact that he was a decade-long daily-user of illegal street drugs and alcohol in official court records where he sought a money settlement against the Sathya Sai Baba Society Of America (Ref)!

Both Robert Priddy and Barry Pittard are fierce defenders, promoters and associates of Conny Larsson, a self-proclaimed Prophet and Psychic Trance Medium for Vyasa. Conny Larsson claims to see, hear and channel dead people and dead animals in psychic trance séances! Needless to say, Priddy and Pittard often trash & bash other psychics and mediums as “absurd charlatans”

To Date: Robert Priddy and Barry Pittard adamantly refuse to address Alaya Rahm’s self-disclosed drug addiction and alcoholism in official court records and Conny Larsson’s self disclosed psychic trance medium claims on numerous websites.

Others suffering from the “Prittard By Proxy Syndrome” are Timothy Conway, Brian Steel, Alan Kazlev, Sanjay Dadlani, Tony O’Clery, Reinier Van Der Sandt and Andries Krugers Dagneaux (all cult-like sheep who bleat Anti-Baba slogans in tune with their cult-like leaders Priddy and Pittard).

MARCH 31st 2009 UPDATE:
Robert Priddy wrote a rambling response to this article on his Anti-Baba blog and (predictably) did not address any of the main points made by Moreno. Rather, Robert Priddy attempted to deflect his readers (as few as they are) by accusing Moreno of using “a strictly legal definition” for the word ‘proxy’. In fact Moreno did not rely on the legal definition. See: Answers.com Definition For ‘Proxy’.

Robert Priddy defined ‘proxy’ as “‘the agency, function, or office of a deputy who acts as a substitute for another’ (i.e. whether a self-appointed deputy or not) and ‘a representative who acts on behalf of other persons or organizations’”. The first part of Robert Priddy’s definition was taken (verbatim) from Webster’s Online Dictionary (Ref) and the second part was taken (verbatim) from the The Free Dictionary under the thesaurus definition for the word “agent” (Ref)! Neither of those online references said or suggested “whether a self-appointed deputy or not” (an interpretation added by Robert Priddy’s to skew the literal definition for the word “proxy”). Needless to say, Moreno is not a deputy who acts as a representative for the Sai Organization in any capacity, function or office. Robert Priddy also miserably failed to discuss his “proxy” defense of alleged victims and his “proxy” defamations against Sathya Sai Baba (using his definition for the word “proxy”).

Instead of addressing Alaya Rahm’s self-disclosed decade-long daily use of illegal street drugs and alcohol, Robert Priddy decided to deflect his readers (again, as few as they are) with his alleged “succesful challenge to Moreno on Wikipedia” regarding the video-taped deposition of Lewis Kreydick. Moreno actually provided a full response in September 2006 (which Priddy has never been able to refute). For example, two filed court records that include Lewis Kreydick’s name are: Lewis Kreydick: Proof Of Service Motions In Limine and Lewis Kreydick: Deposition In Limine.

Therefore, Robert Priddy’s alleged “succesful challenge to Moreno on Wikipedia” is an absurdity and an illusion that has been fully refuted with verifiable court record documents. Laughably, Robert Priddy’s stated (while apparently intoxicated on his elitist delirium) that his so-called “succesful challenge to Moreno” “eventually led to
Moreno meeting his Wiki-waterloo”. What a bunch of delusional rubbish! Moreno was banned from Wikipedia for exposing Mel Etitis And His Peter J. King Sockpuppet Cover-Up On Wikipedia. Robert Priddy had nothing to do with Moreno’s ban! Robert Priddy is a liar, a distorter of facts and a propagandist with proof.

Robert Priddy also “challenged” Moreno to come forth with the name of the “Robert” who first introduced him to Sathya Sai Baba. Robert Priddy speculated that either Robert Baskin or Robert Bozzani or Robert Bruce were possible “Roberts” who introduced Moreno to Sathya Sai Baba. All Robert Priddy needs to know is that the “Robert” in question is none of the above. As if Moreno would give the full name of a friend to a pathological liar and malicious defamer such as Robert Priddy!

Robert Priddy once hailed Sathya Sai Baba as God Incarnate, the Father who sent Jesus, Allah who sent Mohammed and the Supreme Being who created the Universe! Robert Priddy now claims he was brainwashed during his devotee years (even though he devoted an entire chapter in his Pro-Baba book “Source Of The Dream” about “not believing blindly” and how he was always careful not to join a personality cult or guru cult). Who is to say Robert Priddy has not been brainwashed again (considering how easy it is to brainwash him)? Robert Priddy is a joke and the butt of the joke he personifies. Since Robert Priddy eulogized his LSD-induced hallucinations for 30+ years (Ref), what more can anyone expect from him?

Robert Priddy, Barry Pittard, Sai Isa And The Baba Sling

Robert Priddy (a caustic defamer and critic of Sathya Sai Baba) wrote a foaming-at-the-mouth diatribe on his Anti-Baba WordPress blog attacking Joe Moreno for “libel”, “extreme vilifications”, “slurs” and other equally fanatic accusations (because of a fully documented and well referenced article written by Moreno about the history behind the Baba Sling). Needless to say, Robert Priddy’s rebuttal contained no factual, credible or verifiable material and relied wholly on spin, deflection and rhetoric.

Robert Priddy erroneously contended that the BabaSling business is “unrelated” to Sathya Sai Baba despite the fact that Shanti McIvor (the founder of the Baba Sling) was devoted to Sathya Sai Baba when she founded her business, named the Baba Sling after Sathya Sai Baba, i.e., “Baba” and named her son after Sathya Sai Baba (the guru foretold the birth of her son many years prior), i.e., “Sai Isa”. There are no known terms for babies, children, kids, etc., in which the word “Baba” would apply. “Baba” means “father” and Shanti McIvor praised Sathya Sai Baba on her “Baba Slings” website when it first went online (references provided later in this article).

Robert Priddy said:

“This maliciousness is further evidenced in Moreno’s conscienceless naming of a young child. This boy, out of childlike curiosity, googled his own name, and found viciously aimed barbs at the father whom he loves. This is a man, moreover, who has for years remained unprovoked by Moreno’s constant and extreme vilifications. Indeed, he has all along recommended to other former devotees whom Moreno has attacked not to retaliate or at least if bent on doing so to avoid malice and heated language.”

Far be it for Robert Priddy to point his self-righteous fingers at Moreno and accuse him of being “conscienceless” when Robert Priddy maliciously published (in true tabloid-like style) pictures of the lifeless bodies of men who were shot in the 1993 police shootings incident at Prashanti. The mothers and fathers of those men must now endure the fathomless anguish of seeing their son’s lifeless bodies cheaply broadcast on the internet like entertainment news. Both Barry Pittard and Robert Priddy published those macabre and bloody pictures on their Anti-Sai WordPress blogs despite their psuedo-moral and pseudo-conscientious objections against Moreno’s naming of Sai Isa, whose name was openly stated, published and discussed on Shanti McIvor’s public domain BabaSlings websites (there were a couple of them) for many years! As a matter of fact, Barry Pittard himself publicly divulged that he is the father of Sai Isa and mentioned Sai Isa’s name in relation to the Sai Controversy. On Robert Priddy’s Anti-Baba website saibaba-x.org.uk, Barry Pittard said (which Pittard originally published on QuickTopic in 2002): “…a neighbour Connie Raadsma of Cooma, inspired by stories told to her by Gerry Gibson (still my closest friend and Godfather to our son Sai Isa) decided to visit Sai Baba…”. Therefore, Sai Isa’s name was made a matter of public domain by Shanti McIvor and Barry Pittard before I wrote my article mentioning him.

It is also important to point out that the very first public picture that Barry Pittard released of himself was on MySpace, prominently showing Sai Isa (Ref)!

After widely soliciting himself on the internet as an “international coordinator” to bring Sathya Sai Baba to “justice” (even widely advertising his address and phone number on numerous websites), Barry Pittard brought Sai Isa into the foreground of the Sai Controversy by recklessly releasing his very first picture with Sai Isa.

Let us not forget how both Robert Priddy and Barry Pittard wrote several articles ridiculing, mocking and maliciously publicizing the tragic suicide of J. Jagadeesan’s son and the death of his wife! Barry Pittard also wrote an article accusing a high-ranking Sai Devotee of being a homosexual and running a pedophile ring from his apartment in New York! Unsubstantiated accusations resulting in no legal action or investigation from any legal authorities despite complaints allegedly filed by Pittard with New York’s Mayor, Interpol, the FBI and other high-ranking officials. The only people who are “conscienceless” are Barry Pittard, Robert Priddy and other Ex-Devotees. For more examples of “conscienceless” attacks, Click Here.

If Sai Isa googled his father’s name (Google Results For ‘Barry Pittard’), he would find numerous articles written by his father viciously attacking, maligning, defaming and libeling Sathya Sai Baba (the Guru after whom he was named). Apparently, Robert Priddy and Barry Pittard think it is okay for Sai Isa to find defamatory and libelous articles falsely accusing Sathya Sai Baba of homosexuality, serial pedophilia, murder, international racketeering, fraud, human trafficking, etc., and Sai Isa is not supposed to be concerned whatsoever (although his name belongs to the Guru in question)! One could certainly make the argument that both Robert Priddy and Barry Pittard are doing far more harm against Sai Isa by trashing & bashing the Guru he was named after than I allegedly did for simply saying Sai Isa’s name.

Robert Priddy also lied when he claimed that Barry Pittard has “remained unprovoked” by Moreno. Barry Pittard has “remained” so “unprovoked” that, in fact, he linked his Anti-Baba WordPress blog to a website that openly defames, libels and attacks Joe Moreno (apparently approving of those attacks against Moreno). How’s that for “unprovoked”? Although Robert Priddy claimed that Barry Pittard recommended that Ex-Devotees not retaliate against Moreno (a dubious claim at best), Ex-Devotees (including Robert Priddy) have ignored Barry Pittard’s alleged plea because they have “retaliated” against Moreno in the most vitriolic of ways (Ref). Therefore, Robert Priddy’s claims are without merit and he is a proxy defender of Barry Pittard, a man who cannot defend himself and a coward who continually refuses to put himself in a position where he is held accountable for his defamations, slurs and libels against Sathya Sai Baba and others.

Robert Priddy said:

“Moreno’s daily method is to slur, vilify, and to try to scare into submission.”

Don’t expect Robert Priddy to divulge how he and Reinier Van Der Sant traced the name and email of a person (who submitted a critical comment on the ExBaba guestbook) to his place of employment. Priddy and Van Der Sandt sent malicious emails to that person’s place of employment in an attempt to get him fired and to embarrass him. Robert Priddy also attacks any and all Sai Devotees (even those not involved in the Sai Controversy) on his Anti-Baba WordPress blog and thinks he is perfectly entitled to do so with impunity. Therefore, Robert Priddy’ daily method is to slur, vilify and scare others into submission with proof! For example, read the article entitled Robert Priddy’s Moon Madness to see how he viciously attacked a Sai Devotee without conducting even basic research. Needless to say, when others (like Moreno) follow in Robert Priddy’s footsteps, he gnashes his teeth, raises a huge wail and shrieks “libel”, “defamation” and “tu quoque”. Tough luck, Mr. Priddles.

Robert Priddy said:

“Although she is not now devoted to Sai Baba, having taken down her photos and stopped singing his bhajans and so forth, she has not cooperated with her former partner’s exposure activities, as has been a fact well-known to Sai Baba devotees known to her. Again, one sees Moreno’s shocking tendency to argue from a narrow range of dates and making the most elemental infractions of logic.”

As a rebuttal to Robert Priddy’s ridiculous claims, Moreno provides the following facts that wholly refute Robert Priddy’s flimsy and unsubstantiated accusations. Let the reader decide for him/her self as to whether or not Moreno made his argument from a “narrow range of dates and making the most elemental infractions of logic”:

The Truth About The Founder Of The “Baba Sling”
If you are looking for “babaslings” aka “baba slings” on the internet, chances are you have come across Shanti McIvor’s (aka “Padma Ananda”) domain babaslings.com (a website that sells baby and toddler slings under the trademark “babaslings”). Shanti McIvor jointly set up another company in the UK, located at babaslings.co.uk, which is directed by Mrs. O’Connor and Mr. Lucas. The name “Baba Slings” was inspired by the famous Indian Guru Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba when Shanti McIvor and Barry Pittard (her mate and the father of their son Sai Isa) were his devotees.

Shanti McIvor is the founder of the “babaslings” business and it is officially registered under her name (Ref). Barry Pittard was intimately associated with the BabaSlings business, was a promoter of the BabaSlings product (Ref) and his name and person were mentioned throughout the BabaSlings website. Shanti McIvor (with the assistance of Barry Pittard) began her business by selling the baba sling at the Eumundi and Brisbane Riverside markets in Australia (they were seen together by Sai Devotees who knew them well). Both Shanti and Barry advertised their babasling product in direct association with their son “Sai Isa” (who was named after the Indian Guru Sathya Sai Baba). Sai Isa was conceived when Shanti McIvor was 21 years old and Barry Pittard was 58 years old (old enough to be her Grand-Father).

Shanti McIvor & Baba-Slings Website Promoted Barry Pittard:
Barry Pittard defected from the Sathya Sai Movement in 1999 and waged a concerted, deliberate, neurotic, obsessive and fanatic smear campaign against Sathya Sai Baba that peaked between the years 2001 – 2004. Although Shanti McIvor claimed she had nothing to do with Barry Pittard’s Anti-Sai campaign, not only was she coupled with the lead organizer, main spokesperson and most vocal defamer of Sathya Sai Baba during his peak Anti-Sai years, the phone number and address to her Baba Slings business were specifically used for Anti-Sai Activism. Barry Pittard even cited Shanti McIvor as an alleged “witness” against Sathya Sai Baba and claimed that she was his “wife”. The following screen-caps verify these facts:

Sathya Sai Baba, Barry Pittard, Sai Isa And The Baba-Slings Business:

Above: Shanti McIvor (BabaSlings Founder) Holds Her Son Sai Isa In A Baba Sling (Click Here For Original Picture Reference – Still Available On The Sunshine Valley News Public Domain)

Take a long, hard look at Sai Isa (the child in the photo above). Cute kid? Right? Before you let your paternal/maternal instincts get the better of you, it is important to remember that Sai Isa was named after the revered Indian Guru Sathya Sai Baba. Both Shanti McIvor and Barry Pittard decided not to change Sai Isa’s name, so he still bears that name. The reason why this is so very disturbing is because Barry Pittard is currently a very vocal and vicious Anti-Sai Activist who spearheads many gutter, smear and hate campaigns against his former Guru, whom he erroneously, obsessively and fallaciously accuses of being a “serial pedophile”, “homosexual”, “fraud”, “implicated in murders”, among numerous other slurs and wholly unsupported accusations. Strange enough, Barry Pittard still believes (even after his defection) that Sathya Sai Baba possesses genuine paranormal powers and even claimed that the Guru foretold the birth of his son (Sai Isa) when he was allegedly observing celibacy.

A day is coming fast when Sai Isa will seek the meaning and history of his name and he will be scarred for life and will probably develop some sort of mental complex after being teased and bullied by others that his own father (Barry Pittard) named him after a Guru he hates, defames and constantly accuses (with no proof, mind you) of being a raping, killing and homosexual serial pedophile who runs “elite pedophile rings” and people trafficking rings throughout the world! This is unconscionable!

Although Shanti McIvor has not publicly spoken out against Sri Sathya Sai Baba, she was coupled with Barry Pittard during his peak Anti-Sai years (never refuting or disagreeing with his Anti-Sai Activism), allowed Barry Pittard to use her Baba Slings address and phone number for his Anti-Sai Activism and thereby silently endorsed him and his shameless defamations, slurs and libels against Sai Baba. The BabaSlings business and Sai Isa are inextricably entwined with Sathya Sai Baba’s person and thus entwined with Barry Pittard and the Sai Controversy.

As one can see, the only people who jeopardize Sai Isa’s future are those who defame, ridicule and libel the Guru he was named after. The harder Robert Priddy and Barry Pittard wage their smear, hate and defamation campaigns against Sathya Sai Baba, the harder Sai Isa will suffer in the future when he will be inevitably targeted by teachers, students and others as being named after a Guru his own father falsely accuses of being a “serial pedophile” and “homosexual”. Sad. Very sad.
