Return of Sri Sathya Sai baba

As we know a seeming tragedy that has taken place, with the medically declared death of Sri Sathya Sai Baba which many feel is just one more act in His Divine play.
Sometimes, Baba says, “I shake the faith of my devotees to the core just to check how strong it is. Be steadfast and hold on to Me. I shall carry you through everything.”Italic text
He has Himself announced several times in public, that this body of His shall remain alive for the sake of humanity for 96 long years.
So far there is no statement given by any of His Avatars that has ever failed.
In His earlier incarnation, the Shirdi Avtar, He left His body for 3 days and against all odds, His devotees preserved His body unmoved (though he was medically declared dead). On the third day, life re-entered the seemingly dead body and He got up on His own as if awakened from deep sleep. (This has gone on records in several books and renown publications that are known to be neutral for expressing facts)

Message is quite clear. If devotees believe Swami will come back, He has to come back, happen whatever it may.
As he has said on several occasions, it is His resolve and His Will which is subject to the prayers of His devotees.
As Sri Krsna has said in the Bhagawat Gita: “The biggest strength of My devotees and My only weakness is their devotion. I am compelled to do even the most impossible by a mere prayer of a devotee filled with utmost faith and true sense of surrender.”
A person closely associated to Swami on higher plains and had this to say:
“Normal human bodies can survive on 16 beats (or some units called 'Ankda's") per breath, anything below this can put the physical survival of the person in danger or almost extinct, but for bodies of divine beings, this requirement is only 4 beats or even less, to which any human can easily declare the body dead. There are no instruments that can measure this accurately so far and hence medical death of a divine being cannot be taken as a permanent occurrence.”Italic text
Even the authorities in Prashanti, the place of residence of Baba; has just declared "Current state of Swami" - "Swami lies in state" as the media portrays it.
Many have confirmed that Baba has done miracles on sincere prayers of devotees including bringing back life to lifeless body in both the Avtars, and they strongly feel that the same will be repeated even now. The embodiment of love, humanity and sacrifice will return back. Prayers for the ‘Miracle’ to happen are on at almost all places manned by the devotees of Baba.
A ray of hope can light up all dark and in no time shall the darkness dispel making way for the bright light. Let us hope for the best that is yet to come.
