Sai Baba’s Divine Eye-in-the-Sky that sees through all?

How many people on average will believe that the above image is a genuine one… how many may suspect it has been manipulated? In the Sai movement the majority almost certainly believe it genuine. It has been on sale since the 1980s and the photographer made a real killing! Life in Puttaparthi was and still is harsh and unforgiving to most of its inhabitants, so a little trick that brings in dollars is the obvious thing. But how could it be so successful? The following scan showing Sai Baba’s claims from Dr. J. Hislop’s book ‘Conversations with Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba can indicate why…

Sathya Sai Baba has often boasted about his all-seeing eyes [correction ‘eye’] (note that he has explained how he is blind in the other after a hair-dryer accident, of all things! Funny he didn’t “see” that the hair dryer would blind him? See Damage-containment for Swami’s All-seeing Eye(s)? http://www.saibaba-x.org.uk/7/Sai_Baba_Eye_injury.htm )

There have been plenty of other photo tricks among Sai followers, not least the widely-publicised photo of an alleged appearance of Sai Baba in the sky beside an airliner that ran out of fuel. This photo is also a dark room concoction – superimposition of two images –  and has been thoroughly debunked by experts… but anyone can see that it cannot be what it is claimed because trees are visible in the sky which is supposed to be high above the ocean!
