Natalya with legendary
Faith healer Alex Orbito
In March 2013, I arrived at the Pyramid of Asia resort, where Alex Orbito held Spiritual teachings.
His personality left such a lasting impression on me, that I later wrote a book about him, “The Pyramid of his Soul.”
I spent more time at the Pyramid resort than his followers or even his own family.
Can I say I uncovered the mystery of his phenomenal personality? Who is he — a man with a divine gift, or a charlatan? If anyone came close to truly understanding the full scope of who he was, it was me… Alex was a spiritual man — yet vain, someone who had never read a single book, not even those written about himself. And still, he became a Guru to many. He was a man of contrasts: he loved luxury, but gave people faith in miracles. He rose to fame in Europe, the only healer of his kind to gain worldwide recognition and earn millions. He built the Pyramid of Asia and the Pyramid for Light in the Philippines... These photographs are not just documentary glimpses of the past.
They are a remembrance of Alex: my friend, a healer, a teacher, a man of mystery. ...
