Many years ago, I spoke about a real Miracle taking place right before your eyes.
All these years. Since 2017, when I told you about it.
Were you not interested?
Perhaps this Miracle will interest you now: Your Yoga. Shirdi Sai Baba’s New Miracle
So, the Miracle has not only been happening right before our eyes for many years—it has not stopped.
People are literally flowing toward Shirdi Sai Baba in a steady stream!
It already has several million views.
And it is only growing stronger!
But I am not going to talk about that now.
I want to talk about another photograph.
A very special one...
When I saw it personally, I thought I was looking straight into an ocean of compassion and love.
The story of the photograph begins around 1915. A photographer came to Shirdi and photographed Sai Baba without permission. Baba was displeased. A few days later, the photographer returned with the finished photograph and gave it to Sai Baba.
Then the most interesting thing happened. Sai Baba gave the photograph to Professor Ganpatrao Narke and, according to his account, said something approximately to this effect:
Another devotee, Rumalwala Baba, was nearby and very much wanted to obtain such a photograph. He went to lunch, but was so upset that he could barely eat. When he took money from his pocket to pay, this very photograph of Sai Baba unexpectedly fell out of his pocket along with the coins. This is described as one of his lilas—divine plays. Rumalwala Baba wept with joy, pressed the photograph to his heart, and told those around him that he had received a “divine photograph.”
After that, it passed from one devotee to another: from Rumalwala Baba to Shri Pathakji, and then to other followers. People framed it, carried it with them, worshipped it, and lit lamps and incense before it. The tradition was preserved that whoever revered this image would receive protection and help in times of difficulty.
But that is not all!
I was personally shocked when I learned what happened next...
It was very touching, as though—and indeed it was—Baba was playing with his devotees.
The author’s mother read the Gujarati book “Sai Sarovar” and learned the story of this photograph. She very much wanted to find it. Together with a friend, she began going from house to house among Sai Baba’s elderly devotees, asking people questions and searching for the photograph. But they could not find it...
Exhausted and worn out, they stopped searching.
Then an almost comical yet simultaneously symbolic fact came to light: the photograph had been inside the book “Sai Sarovar” all along—on the first page. The very book that had always been with them!!!!!!!
For several months, they read the book and searched for the photograph somewhere in the outside world—while all that time it was literally right before their eyes.
The conclusion:
we seek Shirdi Sai Baba outside ourselves, forgetting that He is already within us.
Look into your heart—and there you will find Baba.
This is a small mystical parable about the search for God: a person travels far away, searching for a shrine, a sign, or a Teacher—and in the end discovers that what they were seeking had been beside them or within them all along.
I draw your attention to this Lila—the photograph was inside the book itself.
To be continued...

At this very moment, Joy is felt not as a "bright upswing," but precisely as "inner warmth, interest, inspiration, and the desire to take the next step" (from the intensive course "Leaving the Zone of Tension in 21 Days," day 19).
