Sri Shirdi Sai Baba Mandiram, Near Sri Bhajane Hatti Rangappa Circle, Doddaballapura, Bangalore Rural Dist. Karnataka.

Aum Sai Ram.

As I have been Completely Busy setting up the Charity Foundation & attending to some Personal Commitments, I was not visiting Sai Baba Temples at New Cities/ Towns & writing articles on the same. Though i have visited a temple of Sri Sai Baba, but as i had not seen any more temples, i was just feeling low writing article on just one temple of Sai Baba I had visited.

After successfully writing my 108th Article on Temple visited by me Under my Pilgrimage series i was going Low & concentrating on setting Up my Charity Foundation. Recently in the 2nd & 3rd week of July 2013 i got the Opportunity to visit Visakhapatnam & Kakinada in Andhra Pradesh & i was able to visit a couple of Sai Baba temples on whom i'm going to start writing articles in the coming weeks.

The Present article i'm writing is of 109th temple of 1st temple of my 2nd set of 108 temples that i'm going to visit & write articles on in the coming future. I Pray Sri Sai Baba to give me enough Strength, Health & Finances to visit the next set of 108 temples & keep writing articles on the same. Now let us come to the Article on this temple visit.
