Sri Sai Baba Sannidi, Sri Venkata Rama Lingeshwara Swamy Alayam, Railway Quarters, Rajahmundry.

Aum Sai Ram.

This is the 14th Temple visited by me during my 13th Pilgrimage to Sri Shirdi Sai Baba Temples at Rajahmundry on Thursday, 15th Mar 2012.


This Sanctum of Sri Shirdi Sai Baba was opened in 2003 in the Sri Venkata Rama Lingeshwara Swamy Alayam Temple Complex. Sri Venkata Rama Lingeshwara Swamy Alayam has been built for a very long time & is one of the Unique temples with both Hari & Hara Dieties in the temple.

Built behind the Railway Station on the way to the Railway Quarters of the Rajahmundry Town, Lot of Devotees from the nearby area going towards the railway station & Also the Employees & family of Railways residing at the Railway Quarters pass by this temple daily.

Being a very old Shivalayam, Shivarathri, Ugadi, Karthika Depotsavam & Kalyanotsavam to Shiva, Rama & Venkateshwara swamy are performed during the annual Utsavams in this temple.

A 4ft Marble Statue of Sri Sai Baba has been installed in a Hall with a Seating capacity of around 500 Devotees. A Small Statue of Sri Ganeshji to the Left & Sri Dattatreya to the right of Sri Sai Baba's Statue has been installed in this temple Sanctum.

A Well designed Brass Simhasan & Prabhavali has also been installed to Sai Baba in this temple. This Baba temple is also very unique in its own way & it is the only temple in Rajahmundry with the Statue of Sri Sai Baba Facing North. All the Temples will usually have the statue facing the East Direction.

The North Direction representing the Himalayas where lots of People meditate for the wellness of the world & prosperity of life. It is a tribute to such siddha Purusha's praying for the welness of life by Baba's Statue facing the North.

Special Abhishek, Puja, Alankar, Aarti are performed on Thursdays & other special Days like Sri Rama Navami, Guru Pournima & Sai Punyathithi. Palki Utsav, Bhajan Sandhya, Satsang & Annadanam is performed regularly on thursday & other special Days in the temple sanctum.

A Team of ladies volunteers cook food in a very large quantity in the temple premises on thursday & special days & feed anywhere up to 300 Devotees during thursdays & around 1000 on special Days.

Shivaratri's are celebrated very grandly with 4 yama Rudrabhishek & Puja to Shiva & Sai Baba through out the nite.

On Rama Navami, Chandan Utsav followed by Kalyan Utsav to Sri Rama is performed in the temple.
