people may have different views and opinions about God and the truth. Sathya Sai Baba repeatedly said not all of his devotees would be able to recognize and accept his next incarnation as Prema Sai Baba. That is what we are seeing now.

For some, the theme of Prema Sai Baba opens easily and simply, but for others it is very difficult. Confusion in predictions and interpretations, attachment to the form of Sathya Sai Baba, the many candidates — all this and more does not allow one to easily accept the new reality of Prema Sai.

Some devotees come into contact with great spiritual and intellectual difficulties that make it difficult to understand the current situation with the arrival of Prema Sai Baba.

21. Materialization before construction of a new house

Jaya Lakshmi Amma (born 1952) lives in the South Indian city of Bangalore and plays an important role in the development of the Prema Sai Baba tradition. Since 2006, Sathya Sai Baba has manifested through her on a subtle plane. Jaya Lakshmi Amma repeats all the time that she does not perform any miracles, and that they only happen because Sathya Sai Baba is constantly present next to her on the subtle plane.

Materialization occurs in the following way — something miraculously appears in the hands of Jaya Lakshmi Amma, for example, a ring, a medallion or a Lingam.

Jayalakshmi Amma always stresses she doesn't know how or when this will happen. Objects simply spontaneously appear in her hands because on the subtle plane next to her there is always an invisible Sathya Sai Baba, who performs these amazing miracles.

Miracles that happen near Amma include healing from diseases, the materialization of various objects of power, and the transformation of people's destinies.

An important element of her mission is the regular performance of the traditional ritual of worship on the sacred sandals (Paduka), which Sathya Sai Baba presented to her in 2010, a year before his passing.

Sathya Sai Baba materialized in front of her house and handed over the sacred sandals (Paduka). Since then, Jaya Lakshmi Amma has traveled all over India, performing the traditional ritual of worship. Sometimes, she personally performs the ceremony, and sometimes she invites brahmins, traditional Hindu clerics.

Sometimes, these ceremonies take place in large halls, where several hundred to several thousand participants can be present and other times worship rituals take place in the homes of the devotees. These events are usually attended by a limited number of people. Those who regularly attend these ceremonies notice significant changes and improvements in the circumstances of their lives.

In 2018, the devotees decided to build a new home for Prema Sai Baba's family. Before the start of construction, Sathya Sai Baba physically materialized at four in the morning in the city of Bangalore in the house of Jaya Lakshmi Amma. When Sathya Sai Baba appeared, he materialized many different golden and silver amulets. Among these special charms were astrological amulets with precious stones as symbols of various Vedic gods and goddesses.

Having materialized many special objects of power, Sathya Sai Baba requested that all of them be buried in the center of the foundation of Prema Sai Baba's family home. Thus, many mystical objects, which were materialized by Sathya Sai Baba himself, were buried in the basement of Prema Sai Baba's house, while it was under construction.

Sathya Sai Baba often appears physically at Jaya Lakshmi Amma's home. He gives spiritual instructions to this unique holy woman and shares a lot of important information about Prema Sai Baba (about his own next incarnation).

In many traditions, including the Vedic and Christian ones, special mystical objects are sometimes placed at the base of the house, which protect all household members. What is unique in this story is that on the subtle plane Sathya Sai Baba leads and blesses his own next incarnation. It is amazing.

It is impossible to understand this rationally. God, as Absolute Consciousness, is simultaneously present in different forms, supporting himself in different manifestations. It sounds very strange, but in fact it looks like it. That is why, appearing in the form of Sathya Sai Baba in the house of Jaya Lakshmi Amma, he gives her instructions on how to develop the tradition of Prema Sai Baba.

While Prema Sai Baba is a child, some important decisions on the development of the tradition are made by Jaya Lakshmi Amma, or rather, through her, Sathya Sai Baba himself gives precise orders for the formation of the tradition. The next story happened when Prema Sai Baba was nine years old.

In his house there are four Lingams materialized by Sathya Sai Baba through Jaya Lakshmi Amma. Jaya Lakshmi Amma gave these four Lingams to Prema Sai Baba's parents in different years in order to bless their family. All Lingams were materialized at different times. Some of them were manifested during the Shivaratri festival.

Once, my wife, Svetlana, and I asked the parents of the divine boy to show us again the wonderful Lingams that we had seen many times already. To our surprise, there were no Lingams on the home altar. All attempts to find them failed.

Even after two weeks of searching the whole house, they were not found. It became clear there were simply no Lingams, and there were even suspicions that one of the visitors took them as a keepsake.

The boy Prema Sai Baba silently watched the long search. Finally, two weeks later, Prema Sai Baba told us to look at the altar. To everyone's surprise, four Lingams appeared there.

The entire altar room had been reviewed many times by many people and every time the Lingams were not there. It became very clear that Prema Sai Baba again materialized them right in the most prominent place.

22. Prema Sai’s first pilgrimages

We know that Sathya Sai Baba went on pilgrimages several times. The main place of his travels was the
