Sai Baba's Teachings on the Significance of 9

In summary, Sai Baba, a highly followed teacher with over 100 million followers, believes that 9 signifies God because its digits always add up to 9 regardless of multiplication or division. He also states that changelessness is an attribute of God. He suggests that if one meditates and asks God for an answer to a math problem, it will usually come within 20 minutes. However, some argue that this belief is not well-founded and recommend that Sai Baba learn basic Number Theory before making such claims. It is also suggested that this is not the appropriate platform for promoting one's religious beliefs.

I believe that if you ask Baba or your favorite form of GOD
in meditation for an answer to a math problem, it will come to you
..usually within 20 minutes.

Belief is necessary for the current.

Multiplied by nine, yes! Divided by nine, no! Take 9 divided by 9 = 1, this is not a multiple of nine. Does that have any effect on the philosophy?

This is as ridiculous as saying 0 is God because all its multiples (and quotients) are 0.

I would strongly recommend that Sai Baba learn some basic Number Theory, before proclaiming godliness on numbers whose properties he has no clue about.

I also strongly recommend all the 100 million followers of Sai Baba to take his "mathematical teachings" with a sackfull of salt.

Finally, this is not a Religion Forum. If you want to help spread Sai Babaism, please don't do it here.
