From what I have read of this thread so far, this is in large part an attempt to understand the Work of the Hebrew God through the mindset and vision of Eastern ideology and mysticism.
The two are mutually exclusive and cannot be combined. You are comparing Apples to Oranges.
If you want to understand the Reason for the Crucifixion, get hold of a Bible and read the Book of ROMANS, It is in the New Testament, just after the book of ACTS, Following the four Gospels of MATTHEW, MARK, LUKE and JOHN. This book, ROMANS, will explain a great deal about many Christian ideas and thoughts. When choosing a Bible to read, choose wisely.
Personally, I would suggest you stay away from the King James version as the flowery speech has a tendency to confuse.
All Bibles are the same, mind you, despite what you may have heard, it is just that the dialects differ. Choose one that is easiest to understand, and have at it!

By the way, Sai Baba has received quite a bit of hard luck from detractors in India. He has had books published about him there. He just was never foolish enough to venture westward as were many of his contemporaries. Still, Tal Brooke wrote a wonderfully scathing book about him called Avatar of Night, if you're at all interested.
