Sri Achala Geethashrama Prahlada Bhakta Mandali, Muvvala Palem, M V P Colony, Visakhapatnam

Aum Sai Ram.

This is the twenty ninth 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 28th temple to be visited at Visakhapatnam under the Pilgrimage Series for my Sai Photo Blog.

we returned home after visiting the Sri Shirdi Sai Baba Sanctum at Sri Srikantha Guru Datta Sai Mandiram, Datta Sai Veedhi, Madhura Nagar Road, Seethammadhara on the Day # 4. As it was a Sunday I went out to Kailasagiri & had some pleasant time with my sister's family.

On Monday, 22nd July 2013, No new temple was seen as it was Guru Pournima Day & all the temples were completely crowded. I just went to visit Sri Shirdi Sai Baba Dhyan Mandir at Railway New Colony to have the Darshan of Sri Shirdi Sai Baba.

On Tuesday, 23th July 2013, I started my Day # 5 of Pilgrimage to Sai Temples & visited my 28th temple at Visakhapatnam & 1st temple for the Day.

The Entire Morning was gloomy & we are at home taking rest & speaking on Spirituality & divinity. We had some guest, who were keen on knowing more on Sai Baba & i was thrilled to speak on the same.

In the evening, I took my sister out to visit a Temple of Sri Shirdi Sai Baba. As my Sister wanted to see the Beach, we went to Sri Shirdi Sai Baba Sanctum at Sri Achala Geethashrama Prahlada Bhakta Mandali, Moola Palem, M V P Colony. This temple is Near to Appu Ghar & is on the way to Kailasagiri.

As it was the last day of my trip to Visakhapatnam in July 2013 & the next day we had plans to visit Kakinada to perform a Puja Ceremony, we went on a Casual Visit.

I Had a Relaxed Darshan of Sri Shirdi Sai Baba at the temple Sanctum. A 4.5ft Cement Statue of Sri Shirdi Sai Baba has been installed in the temple Sanctum. A 2ft Black stone & 1 ft Marble statue of Sri Sai Baba used as Utsav Murthy have also been installed in front of the statue of Sri Shirdi Sai Baba.

This temple has Sanctums of Ganesha, Shiva, Annapurneshwari Devi, Santoshi Matha, Ayyappa, Subramanya - karthikeya, Surya & Anjaneya Swamy beside the sanctum of Sri Shirdi Sai Baba inside the temple premises.

A Beautiful cement Statue of Sri Shirdi Sai Baba has been prepared & is yet to be painted. A Statue of Sri Sai baba Made out of Cement has been installed at the entrance of the temple on the Arch.

This Cement Statue at the temple Looks totally different & is a Real Eye Catcher!

Special Puja & Abhishek are conducted on Thursday & during Sri Ramanavami, Guru Poornima & Vijayadashmi - Sai Baba Punyathithi to Sri Shirdi Sai Baba.

Again in August 2013, I had a chance to visit Visakhapatnam & i reached Vizag on 27th Aug 2013. On 28th Aug 2013, Due to some tiredness & mental Stress, I took rest & relaxed the entire day.
