In India Sathya Sai Baba is in the News recently for his illness. Wanting to know more about him I googled and found many similarities between him and Jesus Christ. In both cases there are claims of immaculate conception and incarnation of God; both performed miracles like healing the sick, raising the dead, levitation, etc.; there are prophesies of their birth and they both predicted about the future. Jesus and Sai Baba teach about love and peace and both of them have millions of followers all over the world. Jesus Christ is said to be resurrected and I believe Sathya Sai Baba will also be seen by some devotees after his death.
These resemblances, to me, have reduced the uniqueness of Jesus.
Are they not the same kind of delusion about god?
