Sri Sai Baba Sannidi, Sri Sri Sri Uma Sahita Neelakanteshwara Alayam, Satyavani palem, Visakhapatnam

Aum Sai Ram.

This is the Seventeenth Temple on which i'm writing article that I visited during my 17th Pilgrimage to Sri Shirdi Sai Baba Temple at Visakhapatnam & Kakinada between 17th July 2013 till 26th July 2013.

This is the 16th temple to be visited at Visakhapatnam under the Pilgrimage Series for my Sai Photo Blog.

After visiting the Sanctum of Sri Sai Baba along with sanctums of Shiva & Venkateshwara at the Sri Shiva Panchayudhana Alayam, H B Nagar, Seethammadhara, we headed towards the actually planned temple of Sai Baba near B V K College.

On our way, there was yet another deviation to visit one more sanctum of Sri Shirdi Sai Baba. This time we saw a Banner with the Invitation for Guru Pournima of Sai Baba in front of Sri Sri Sri Uma Sahita Neelakanteshwara Alayam, Satyavani palem. In front of the temple, there is no mention of Sai Baba's Name on the Display board. If we had not seen the banner, we would have missed visiting this Sanctum of Sri Sai Baba.

Only the Devotees visiting this temple & staying around this area knew of the existence of a Sanctum of Sri Sai Baba in this temple Premises. Though the sanctum has been installed before 17 years, still the existence of Sai Baba's Sanctum has been kept Secret. We were literally scratching our heads as to why such thing might have been done.

This temple of Sri Shirdi Sai Baba was inaugurated on 11th April 1996.

A 2.5ft White Statue of Sri Shirdi Sai Baba's has been installed along with the Sanctum of Shiva, Parvathi, Ganesh, Subramanya, & Nava Graha in this temple Premises.

The Sanctum of  Sai Baba has been installed to the left side of Sanctum of Neelakanteshwara.

A 1 ft Utsav Murthy of Sri Sai Baba along with small pancha loha murthy of Sai Baba with Naga Abharana & Shiva Linga has been installed in front of the Statue.

A Brass Prabhavali has been installed behind the statue of Sai Baba & it looks very beautiful.

Special Puja & Abhishek are conducted on Thursday & during Ugadi, Sri Ramanavami, Guru Poornima & Vijayadashmi - Sai Baba Punyathithi to Sri Shirdi Sai Baba. Shiva Rathri & Ganesh Chauturthi are performed well. Annadanam is performed on Guru Pournima.
