Today as I unfolded the newspaper stuck at my door front, a news that caught my attention was a man who made millions walk under his feet. As I switched on the news channel, the terror struck even worse. Now this is how things go about!
"98kgs of GOLD..
307kgs of SILVER
11.56cr of CASH
was found at Satya Sai Baba's personal chamber in Karnataka."
Now, the question here is...
When we keep talking of poverty being one of the major problems India is facing at the moment, then what is all this money doing in a PERSONAL CHAMBER of a man who claims to be GOD or precisely a spiritual guru?
Well, the answer is straight and simple. And we all know about it. When out of every 10 people in this country are starving to death under no roof and food, a person who claims to be God has an empire worth 40,000-1,00,000 cr.
We see people staying on the pavement, during the rains they live under plastic roofs and sometimes not even that. In such a country if a "baba" can have so much money, then it is obvious why we have poverty so such an extent.
It takes 36hrs with hundreds and thousands of men to count the money in the chamber which was closed in March, and for a poor man, he searches with hopes to find a penny to count.
It now depends where this money will be used; will it be used for the poor? or again to fill the pockets of another "baba" in the making.

The irony is, he could not take anything away with him, even when he thought or claimed to be GOD! "Khali haath aayaa hai, khaali haath jayega!
