It was wonderful hearing of Aaron's very beautiful journey to and with Sai. Aaron concludes that it does not matter what we do here as none of it is real. A similar conclusion is drawn by many ACIM students. My take: behavior matters. Baba has no ego and only ever acts for the benefit of all mankind. Baba takes those who delve into these inexplicable behaviors on one of many paths to ULTIMATE TRUTH, namely SATHYA Sai Baba. Perhaps a path where, as ACIM says, the deeper we go into the ego's darkness, the closer we come to the love that lies hidden beneath it. Om Jai Sai Ram.
DO you have issues with Sai Baba?.....GOOD. You have to embrace your doubts, keep investigating them knock loudly on there door, through deep inquiry wanting to get clarity and get to the core of the doubting issue, the answers will come but not in the time you want, but in time YES!
Very nice interview, if Aaron Powell (or perhaps souljourns) reads this, I would like to know if any of the bliss that was experienced without the ego stayed in some way when the ego returned.
+AlwaysBeNice I was "notified" about and have just seen your question - As it may seem a late reply I will spend some time with your question to make it up to you. The bliss is the same of course but the experience of it is filtered- As an illustration of what happened - imagine more and more veils are added as the ego personality is taken back on (believed to be real) - the ego is like a filter for the light of the true self - thus slowly the amount of bliss experienced was decreased to the degree to which one was identifying with the ego self (the degree to which the filter and its attached veils was in place). The true self is only bliss and some of that bliss will get through the veils and around the veil if it is not fully in place but it is not as direct and clean, not as in focus, and not as consuming. The process was very gradual, the bliss stayed a long time (years). It was nothing like an on-off switch with this experience - very very slowly and gradually, even gently one might say, the ego was taken back on. Never be afraid of losing your ego personality for the truth - strive for your truth with no reservation - and be willing to give up the ego completely - the illusory clothes of the ego self can always be put back on if you wish (though it may not be the quintessence of wisdom to do so). As a little secret I'll tell you that you can even return partially dressed in these illusory clothes. Be Always Happy AlwaysBeNice. Love
+Aaron Powell Ooh wonderful, I had actually completely forgotten about, so seeing this is a pleasant surprise! Very good explanation as well, thank you. May I ask, are you now still in 'persuit' of it again (albeit probably without less stress because you know it's there and someday most return)? And what is your practice like, do you ever feel like you are missing something? (sorry if you had answered this in the interview already but it's been some time).
A very interesting interview. I wonder what you reading this think of the conman allegations pointed at Swami? How about the video's showing the fake trickery?

ACFI Training well said. Baba said come experience it, he did not want your faith for free. After experiencing when we have faith we see the Truth.

This was a good interview except for the interviewer always injecting his own comments throughout.
Unfortunately I agree.. he didn't let the guy answer on his own
