It has always been a matter of concern for us that the magnificience and teachings of Baba should be projected to the world in the artistic form . Thus, through the medium of this art show,"Imaging Sai", we draw ourselves towards taking an initiative of bringing the glory of the saintly figure in an aesthetic form. The Coffee Table Book with the images and paintings of Sai Baba will bring hereforth his teaching for spreading peace and acceptance all across the universe."
"Imaging Sai", is not just a platform for promoting spiritualism but also imparting education to aspiring professionals who in a path to achieve success forget the basic human tendencies. It is very important for the students of our country to emphasize on the teachings of Sai Baba which will be instrumental in overall conditioning of their personality. Academic excellence is not the only medium for success, there is a need for an overall conditioning of a human behaviour.", said Dinesh Singh, Vice Chancellor, University of Delhi.
