Greetings.

Although I personally don't follow any baba or any swamy, I will not reject them outright. In most cases, it is not the baba who does anything; it is the faith of the person with that baba. For example, I am friends with a Fiji Indian family; close enough like relatives. That lady is a staunch devotee of Sai Baba. Only once she started debating with me about the glory of Baba; I refused to debate. i did not want to hurt her felings with any of my pessimistic talks. I could see she has the faith and she draws strength from that faith. In such instances, it is best to be left alone. She was not forcing me to follow Sai Baba; so, who am I to criticise her faith?

So, personally for me, sometimes these kind of challenges sound hollow. People have faith. Faith need not be proved. Who have faith we are going to be alive tomorrow; otherwise we won't be working, we won't be saving for tomorrow. The whole world works on faith. Probabilities are just for the academics.

Cheers!
