Ravi S. Iyer: Spiritual

Last updated on 4-May-2017 Given below are the (slightly edited) contents of an email I sent a few minutes ago: from: Ravi S. Iyer <ravi@raviiyer.org> to: info@indianembassy.hr date: Sun, Apr 30, 2017 at 9:21 AM subject: Open Thank you letter for deleting Madhusudan Naidu posts, to Ambassador of Indian embassy in Croatia at Zagreb, Croatia mailed-by: gmail.com To: Mr. Sandeep Kumar, Hon'ble Ambassador of Indian embassy in Croatia at Zagreb, Croatia Email id: info@indianembassy.hr Dear sir, Thank you very much for positively responding to multiple requests from concerned Sathya Sai Baba devotees, including me, from around the world, by deleting the Croatian Indian embassy social media posts (Twitter & Facebook) of an event in Croatia highlighting Shri Madhusudan Naidu, Shri B.N. Narasimhamurthy and others of Muddenahalli group who promote the FALSE BELIEF of Madhusudan Naidu being a so called communicator of an INVISIBLE and INAUDIBLE to everybody els...

Given below are the contents of my recent Facebook post, https://www.facebook.com/ravi.s.iyer.7/posts/1900590926824142 : As Hon'ble Prime Minster of India, Shri Narendra Modi, Hon'ble Chief Minister of Chhattisgarh, Dr Raman Singh, Hon'ble Union Minister, Shri AnanthKumar, and Hon'ble Union minister of state, Col. Rajyavardhan Rathore, have, in the past, associated with medical and/or educational charitable institution events of Muddenahalli based group of Shri B.N. Narasimhamurthy, Shri C.S. Srinivas and Shri Madhusudan Rao Naidu, I felt it appropriate to write this Facebook note/post tagging the above hon'ble persons as a way of intimating their staff about this note, who may then choose to bring it to the notice of the leaders themselves. Shri Madhusudan Rao Naidu claims to be a communicator of an INVISIBLE and INAUDIBLE to all others, so called subtle body of Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba, and provides darshan, interviews and discourses of that so called su...

Minor typo correction update on 3th Nov. 2017 Narasimhamurthy is undoubtedly the brains and the dictatorial power behind MDH (Muddenahalli) group as of now. C. Srinivas runs the hospitals which attracts a lot of publicity and celebrities including political leaders. But I don't think CS plays a spiritual leader role. That role is played mainly by Narasimhamurthy (BNNM) who uses Madhu Baba (Madhusudan Rao Naidu) as a drama performer with his mimicry of Sathya Sai to attract persons who do not know much about the teachings and instructions of Sathya Sai (this includes many who were close to physical form Sathya Sai, including Sai alumni). That BNNM is committing Guru Droham by misguiding people using the name of Sathya Sai Baba, is, I think, beyond any doubt now for any unbiased person who is knowledgeable about Sathya Sai life and teachings. I think it is also quite clear that BNNM is a Narcissist who has put his ambitions about building a spiritual empire using the name o...

An extract from Page 84 (pdf page 90) of 'A Sadhu’s Reminiscences of Ramana Maharshi', written by Major Chadwick (Sadhu Arunachala), http://www.jainlibrary.org/elib_master/jlib/007501_book_english_41/Sadhus_Reminiscences_of_Raman_Maharshi_007606_std.pdf , is given below. A young man from Mysore sat in front of Bhagavan for months, apparently always in deep meditation. Bhagavan appeared almost antagonistic towards him, so much so, that someone asked him, why? Bhagavan replied that the young man was only meditating for a job as he was out of work, and this proved to be true. The youth was actually offered employment in a local school as he had a degree in science but had by then gone so crazy that he ignored it. His idea of a job now seemed to be to take the place of Bhagavan himself. It was very dangerous to misuse Bhagavan’s power and a thing which Bhagavan always strongly opposed. This youth finished up by trying to jump onto Bhagavan’s couch and embrace him, calling out,...

Is there another MDH campus here in PSN? I thought Muddenahalli had been high-jacked by Narasimha Murthy and the Fraud Squad. Please let me know. Today the MDH supporters who go to MDH from Puttaparthi, who even live here were walking around town very very smug reporting that...

It is not just a beverage but a way of life for Bombayites/Mumbaikars, which I carried on to my Puttaparthi life, including Sai university service life. I have had lots of wonderful sessions brimming with love and happiness as well as spiritual satsang over chai in my nearly fifteen year Puttaparthi life. --- On https://www.facebook.com/sathyanarayana.raju.9/posts/1007589479377536 , Ravi S.
