Satya Sai Baba revealed a new dimension of remembrance and healing through His photographs. I felt a living current of grace, each image echoing the formless healing I had once received. These photographs became alchemy and healing equal to the dreams I once received in solace. He revealed a path of healing that many disbelieved, while many also experienced it themselves. I could not measure the worth of 35 years and so many photographs of Him that I took myself. Photography is still a fresh language, and only He decides whether an image will resonate beyond me. When it did, I felt deep gratitude and trusted the receiver to find the value of the task Satya Sai Baba had requested, as written in the Sankalpa Blessing. I tried to give it away, but without the story none will understand the context and how the leelas began that stopped the channellers in their tracks and proved His own words that He cannot be channelled.

The golden eagle rising from His hand in the photograph symbolizes His Blessing, made visible in its untouched reflection. Many have witnessed and felt this phenomenon in His presence, while others, not having experienced it, find the concept difficult to grasp. For some, the photograph reveals what is unseen; for those with open hearts and sensibilities, the Blessings are fully conveyed through the photographs and my personal experiences with the healing they brought. The camera’s lens captured a moment that, like inner vision, reveals the unseen. The golden eagle, clearly visible with His image at its apex, signals the path forward in this consciousness. Each photograph I received embodied a healing principle within me—mind, body, and spirit. It is for each viewer to choose to accept or question the conscious or unconscious effects of His healing as captured in these images, which I personally experienced through my interactions with Him. Reflecting on these experiences, I have been told that the purpose of art and storytelling is to serve as a commentary on the place and times. These photographs are reflections of His leelas—divine plays—as seen and experienced through my lens. His leelas with the photographs…
In the Hindhu epic tale called the Ramayana, when Ram met the dying bird Jatayu, He helped him attain moksha (liberation)by uttering “Lepakshi,” which in Telugu means “Rise, bird.”
