So many emotions can come from just quietly looking at a photograph. For me, images of the masters sometimes bring a kind of softness in my heart, like meeting an old friend who somehow understands everything. I found myself pausing and just breathing for a while. It’s curious how a simple glance at a serene face can invite silence into my whole day.
So many layers can be found in a single photograph. I grew up around elders who would sometimes just pause and gaze at an image of their teacher for a while, as if quietly listening to something deeper. There’s a kind of remembering that happens in those moments. Looking at these pictures, I feel that same gentle invitation to be still.
The photographs feel like pauses in thought, almost as if the silence around Maharaj had been captured along with his image. Looking at them I wondered how a person can sit so still and yet seem to be larger than the chair or the room itself. It gives me the sense that presence is not measured by size but by how deeply one rests in what is.
I see total stillness in these photos. That look speaks louder than any words. I close my eyes. I feel my mind settle.
