Plot

Sati (played by Tanveer K. Atwal) is a program created by her "father" Rama-Kandra and "mother" Kamala. Sati is scheduled for deletion because she has no purpose, born only out of love. To save her, Rama-Kandra sells the deletion codes for the shell of the Oracle to the Merovingian. He does this at the Le Vrai restaurant, just before the crew of the Nebuchadnezzar speaks to the Merovingian. In exchange for the codes, Sati is smuggled into the Matrix through the Mobil Avenue train station where she will be put under the care of the Oracle, who has gotten a new shell. Tanveer K.

Sati is the daughter of two programs. Her father is the "power plant systems manager for recycling operations" and her mother is an "interactive-software designer" who is "very creative". This seemingly has some impact on Sati's purpose.


An object of hot debate is whether Sati has creative power in the Matrix. Some viewers believe this because Agent Smith's apparent ability to manipulate the weather appears only after copying himself onto Sati. At the end of Matrix Revolutions, the Oracle states that Sati made a sunrise in honor of Neo. However, other viewers believe this power comes as a consequence of copying himself over the Oracle, the "Mother of the Matrix."

Sati is named after a Hindu deity who committed suicide after her parents forbade her marriage. This is probably a reference to her prospected deletion because she does not have a purpose and not a statement about her parents, who both were willing to risk a lot for her. Sati may refer to any of the following: The Hindu Goddess Sati, daughter of Daksha and wife of Shiva A social practise in some parts of India in past centuries, often spelt Suttee The Buddhist Sati; see mindfulness. ...


Sati also referes to the pali word 'sati' which is related to the praxis of being Mindfull (being with what is) understanding this way of being could bring on insight about why the girl has the power she has and why she needs to be smuggled into the matrix see also this page


Speculation

During the film the Oracle is seen showing Sati how to bake cookies. It has been speculated that the Oracle's cookies are actually representations of special Matrix-codes she makes (The Merovingian is capable of "programming" his own 'special' piece of cake that gave a woman an orgasm when she ate it). Thus the Oracle could have activated some new level of function and understanding in Neo when she gave him a cookie (and later a candy). Therefore the scene with Sati being taught this may imply that she is being kept by the Oracle not just to hide, but as a protege. It is worth noting that when Smith comes to assimilate the Oracle, Sati is escorted off by Seraph, whose self-stated purpose is to "...protect that which matters most."
